Abstract:
The invention relates to the use of 1-alkyl-2-alkyl pyridinium halide (e.g., 1-ethyl-2-methyl pyridinium bromide), 1-alkyl-3-alkyl pyridinium halide (e.g., 1-ethyl-3-methyl pyridinium bromide) or 1-alkyl-3-alkyl imidazolium halide (e.g., 1-butyl 3-methyl imidazolium bromide) as additives in an electrolyte used in hydrogen/bromine cells, for complexing the elemental bromine formed in such cells. The invention also provides an electrolyte comprising aqueous hydrogen bromide and said additives, and processes for operating an electrochemical flow cell selected from the group consisting of hydrogen/bromine or vanadium/bromine cells.

Claim (Index 11):
An energy storage device comprising:\n a plurality of hydrogen/bromine cells arranged in a stack configuration, each cell having therein spaced apart bromine and hydrogen electrodes which are in electrical contact with means for supplying electrical current to the cell and collecting electrical current generated by the cell; a separator positioned in the space between said electrodes dividing the cell into a first and second compartments; and an aqueous hydrogen bromide electrolyte in which 1-alkyl-2-alkyl pyridinium halide, 1-alkyl-3-alkyl pyridinium halide or a mixture thereof is present; hydrogen storage tank and HBr/Br 2  aqueous electrolyte storage tank connected by means of one or more conduits to the cell compartments; wherein at least one component of said device comprises high density polyethylene (HDPE).
