That's a variant of the zinc-bromide redox-flow battery. They showed a variant with a cadmium anode which however is not stable. Only the variant with a vanadium anode is in their lab. As such it is in a very early stage of development - quoting Prof Li “This study provides a new idea for the design of high-energy-density aqueous batteries, and may expand the aqueous batteries application in power batteries field”.

@greggrant4614

21 күн бұрын

Sam's apparent aversion to the correct units for Energy (kiloWatt-hours or kWh or kW-hr) mistakenly interchanged with the correct units for Power (kiloWatts or kW) is a very common confusion, particularly as relatively few are aware of the rather straightforward relationship between Energy (E), Power (P) and Time (t). That is: P x t = E, which is algebraicly equivalent to P = E / t, by dividing both sides of the equation for Energy (E) by time (t). So, if Power (P) is given in units of Kilowatts (kW) and time (t) is given in hours (h), the units of Energy (E) = P (kW) x time (t) in hours (h) = kW x h and is most often abbreviated as kWh or kW-h or kW-hr or kW-hour or kW-hours. Hope the above helps explain Sam's (and others') apparent determination to mistakenly interchange units of Energy (kWh) and units of Power (kW).

Thank you for sharing Sam. Water battery is not new, when I and other engineers experimented with water battery as a solid it was nullified by the amount of power it made to stay solid as in it uses power to generate electricity to be used in a heat pump to stay solid by keeping water below zero meaning it made no power at all however as a liquid the efficiency was too low to be useful. But as a gas it was hard to keep it contained so we tried other means and discovered better efficiency using olive oil and as you know the chemical properties of olive oil when it goes rancid it starts to break down and cause other issues in short circuits.

Oh China, please stop being awesome and embarassing everybody! Think of the poor fossil fuel and legacy auto companies! 🙂

There is virtually no car in the world that has a good resale value after driving it for more than 400000Km and the current EV's batteries if used properly are already surpassing that threshold. At least for Canada, Northern USA and northern Europe where they use a lot of salt in the winter the value of any car goes down rapidly. The only way to slow down the depreciation is if you keep it in your garage and barely drive it. Otherwise simply ask yourself, would you buy an expensive ten year old car with 400000 Km on it? I know I wouldn't.

Not actually a water battery in that water is somehow providing the energy. Water is the primary electrolyte. Awesome for an additional layer of safety. If we ever get to the situation where vehicles are literally powered by water (and I don’t mean steam) where a top up at home from the garden hose sees you on your way, THEN it will be genuinely game changing.

Next it will be the dirt battery or the invisible battery. There's energy all around us and here we have trapped ourselves into burning a limited resource to get it? HOW STUPID!

And let's not forget the ambient air systems they're coming up with. Not really a battery but basically the circuit just runs on basically static.

It's possible that a battery like this could be manufactured at a low price and if that happens then it could be an attractive option for grid energy storage

what would be the use case for a water battery? one thing you completely forgot : the molecular density of water is twice the density of lithium (1 g / cm3 vs 0,53 g / cm3). so 1kg water takes up more volume compared to lithium.

Sure would be good to find a link to the comparison of EV fires vs ICE car fires. So many people quote this comparison, but I want to see the parameters used in the study. Did they compare the number of fires per 1000 cars on the road? Did they compare vehicles of the same age - or are much older ICE cars included? How was the destructive force of those fires considered? How were fires that started whilst not being driven, or not involved in an accident, taken into account?

Gelion in Australia has been working on zinc bromine batteries. They compare favorably to lead acid, not lithium. Would be great for marine applications.

please use correct energy units, watt-hours, not watts, a unit of power.

„Water battery“ or if you have a closer look „battery with wet electrolyte“. Last month the game changer was the solid electrolyte battery. Or maybe it was last week.

An Australian who never sees cold temperatures will do an ENTIRE video on water based batteries for EVs and never once raise the issue of the viability of the technology in freezing temperatures. If a Canadian were presenting, that's the FIRST issue they would address in the video and if the answer is that the technology is not viable in freezing temperatures, the video would end at that point and the technology would only be regarded as relevant to the small portion of the earth that never sees freezing temperatures.

That's not how you pronounce aqueous (nor bromine for that matter).

In the next years AI well make chemistry development without large research teams standard until you need to build the battery. Even patents will be questionable, and open source when its no longer humans coming up with the chemistry directly. Capital paired with mineral availability will be the dominant driving force which could well standardize the locations for manufacturing. Debt driven economies may then crumble.
