Deposition-Type Testing Cell with Serpentine Flow Channels for Zn-X (X=Br2/I2/Fe) Redox Flow Battery, CZXRFBDTCSFC

A deposition-type redox flow battery (often called a hybrid flow battery) is a system where one of the active chemical species is deposited as a solid layer onto an electrode during the charging process, rather than remaining dissolved in the liquid electrolyte. While traditional "all-flow" batteries (like the Vanadium Redox Flow Battery) keep all chemicals in a liquid state at all times, deposition-type batteries involve a phase transition (Liquid to Solid).

The working principle for the deposition-type redox flow battery testing cell is shown below: (1) The Liquid Side (Catholyte): Acts like a standard flow battery. The redox species stays dissolved in the electrolyte as it changes oxidation states (e.g., Fe^{2+} to Fe^{3+}). (2) The Deposition Side (Anolyte): During charging, metal ions in the electrolyte receive electrons and plate (deposit) as a solid metal onto the surface of the negative electrode.2 During discharge, this solid metal is "stripped" back into the liquid.
