Redox dual-flow battery for combined electricity storage and hydrogen production

Danick Reynard

The energy transition towards a carbon-neutral and sustainable economy is one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century to combat global warming and pollution. The decarbonization process is affecting every sector of the economy (electricity, transpor ...

Hydrogen production on demand by redox-mediated electrocatalysis: A kinetic study

Hubert Girault, Sunny Isaïe Maye, Danick Reynard

Producing hydrogen from water using a redox mediator on solid electrocatalyst particles in a reactor offers several advantages over classical electrolysis in terms of safety, membrane degradation, purity and flexibility. Herein, vanadium-mediated hydrogen ...

Vanadium‐manganese redox flow battery: Study of Mn(III) disproportionation in the presence of other metallic ions.

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Sunny Isaïe Maye, Danick Reynard, Solène Cindy Gentil, Vimanshu Chanda

The Mn(III)/Mn(II) redox couple with a standard potential of +1.51 V vs . SHE has drawn interest for the design of V/Mn redox flow battery (RFB). However, Mn(III) disproportionation leads to a loss of capacity, an increase of pressure drop and electrode pa ...

Aqueous organic and redox-mediated redox flow batteries : A Review

Hubert Girault, Danick Reynard, Solène Cindy Gentil

Redox flow batteries (RFBs) are among the most investigated technologies for large scale energy storage applications. Since the first commercialization of all-vanadium RFB (in the early 90’s), the technology has evolved towards the development of new syste ...

Solid electrochemical energy storage for aqueous redox flow batteries: The case of copper hexacyanoferrate

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Evgeny Smirnov, Grégoire Clément Gschwend, Christopher Raymond Dennison, Danick Reynard, Solène Cindy Gentil, Elena Zanzola

All redox flow batteries suffer from low energy storage density in comparison with conventional Li-ion batteries. However, this issue can be mitigated by utilization of solid energy storage materials to enhance the energy storage capacity. In this paper we ...
