Qufu: Japanese Experts Come to Sacred Sun to Help Its Product Upgrading

 Qilu News (May 11, 2015):  To speed up the upgrading project of Sacred Sun’s high-energy, environment-friendly and long-life lead carbon batteries (energy storage battery), Japanese experts of Furukawa were invited to Sacred Sun to offer technical training and guidance recently.

  The experts have explained advanced manufacturing technologies and crafts of the battery as while as management philosophy and patterns of lean production through training seminars and site instructions.

    On the one hand, Sacred Sun has obtained advanced research, manufacture and management concepts in battery industry, which could facilitate it to improve its products’ technology content and core competitiveness; on the other hand, Sacred Sun has further extended its talent supply-demand chain, which has made great contributions to its talent cultivation and team building.

Aluminum-Air Battery

 Aluminum-air battery is also a kind of fuel battery. The “charging mode” of aluminum-air battery is replacing aluminum materials. It is similar to the Zinc-air battery used in hearing aids.

    Aluminum-air battery, a kind of metal fuel battery with high energy density and low power density, can be widely applied in facilities with low power. The only way to apply it on electric vehicle is to use it cooperatively with lithium battery.

    In view of its active chemical property, it is difficult to ensure its security and stability. Therefore, it is still in experimental stage.

    In addition, aluminum-air battery is also confronted with the problem of industrial chain. Both zinc-air battery and aluminum-air battery follow the following circulation:

    1. Metal manufacturer prepare metal through electrolyzing metallic oxide;

    2. Transferring metal to electrical changing station;

    3. Replacing metallic oxide in electric vehicle with metal (metal becomes metallic oxide after discharging);

    4. Metal manufacturer recycle metallic oxide for reutilization.

   In this process, a complete industrial chain is needed, from manufacturing, transportation, replacement, to recycling. Is it possible to build electrical changing stations all around the country?

   As a result, even aluminum-air battery enters mass production period, it can only be applied to vehicles with fixed electrical changing stations, such as city buses and taxis. Just like hydrogen fuel battery, it’s really difficult to achieve overall popularization.

Hydrogen Fuel Battery

  In previous article, we have discussed the technical requirements for electric vehicle batteries and have briefly introduced the basic characteristics of Li-ion batteries and lead acid batteries. Start from this article, we will introduce several advanced batteries for you one by one. In this article, we focus on hydrogen fuel battery.

    Fuel battery is usually nonrechargeable. As a kind of fuel battery, the “charging mode” of hydrogen fuel battery is actually hydrogen filling.

   The advantage of hydrogen fuel battery is 0 pollutant emission. Hydrogen generates electricity, motor drives vehicle. We change gas stations into hydrogen refueling stations and everything seems to be Ok.

   However, the entire process is not as simple as what you see. One problem we need to consider is the manufacture, transportation, and storage of hydrogen. Gaseous hydrogen needs to be stored in high pressure gasholder while liquid hydrogen needs to be maintained at very low temperature which costs excessive consumption of electric energy. It is far more troubling than fuel oil.

    Manufacturing of hydrogen is relatively simple. But if you want to transport hydrogen to hydrogen refueling station, special pipelines are needed. Considering the hydrogen embrittlement, the transportation, storage, and refilling of hydrogen demand facilities with high security.

     For fuel oil and natural gas, we have existing infrastructures to utilize; for lithium battery, we have existing power grid to utilize; while for hydrogen fuel battery, we have nothing. If we plan to manufacture vehicles with hydrogen fuel batteries, we need to build an entire system from hydrogen manufacture, to transportation and storage first. It is really a costly project.

Sacred Sun: Energy Storage System of FCP Lead Carbon Batteries will Assist the Development of Energy Storage Industry

On March 16th, 2015, the second working conference of “13th Five Year Plan” on the development of national energy storage industry was held at Tsinghua University. Experts have fully discussed 7 major topics and 33 subtopics on technologies, development objectives, tasks, and overall arrangement of energy storage industry.

    Aiming at the cost dilemma happened in the scale development of energy storage industry, Sui Yanbo, deputy general manager of Sacred Sun, has indicated that FCP lead carbon batteries could improve the development of energy storage industry with its advanced technology and less cost per kw.h.

    Sacred Sun has brought in advanced FCP lead carbon battery technology from Japanese company Furukawa Battery Co., Ltd. in 2014. Such kind of battery possesses advantages such as superlong service life, better charge acceptance, excellent PSOC property, modularized system design and installation, etc.

    At last, Mr. Sui said that Sacred Sun is willing to cooperate with experts responsible for the major research projects of “13th Five Year Plan” on the development of energy storage industry, and make greater contributions to the energy revolution of our country.

The World is Entering “Aluminum” Battery Era

Recently, ChineseAmerican scientist Dai Hongjie has developed a high- performance aluminum battery which is suitable for commercial applications. Smartphones with such kind of batteries can be fully charged within 1 minute and without capacity loss within 7500 chargedischarge cycles. On the strength of its faster charging, longer service life, and lower cost, it is very possible for aluminum batteries to replace Lithium-ion batteries and alkaline batteries in the future.

    In the past decades, researchers are always trying to develop economical aluminum batteries, but appropriate positive materials and electrolyte materials are too difficult to find.

    In accordance with the report from American’s Science Daily website on April 6, negative electrode (aluminum material), positive electrode (graphite), and electrolyte (ionic liquid) of aluminum battery are placed in a soft bag made of aluminum foil and covered by flexible macromolecules.

     “This newly developed rechargeable aluminum battery is much safer than traditional Li-ion battery. Li-ion battery has the risk of explosion, while aluminum battery is safe on this aspect. In addition, to fully charge a smartphone with Li-ion battery, several hours are needed, while for smartphone with aluminum battery, one minute is enough.”

    Compared with the service life of other aluminum batteries (approximately 100 charge-discharge cycles) and Li-ion batteries (approximately 1000 charge-discharge cycles), the service life of this new aluminum battery (7500 charge-discharge cycles without capacity loss) is really amazing.

    Another distinguishing characteristic of this new aluminum battery is its flexibility, which enables it to be applied on flexible electronic instruments. Cheaper, safer, greener, and more flexible, this aluminum battery is a perfect alternative for traditional alkaline batteries and li-ion batteries.

    The only deficiency of this new aluminum battery is its voltage, which is only half of traditional li-ion batteries. Dai Hongjie planned to improve its voltage and energy density through improving the performance of positive materials.

What’s the classification of battery?

In accordance with electrolyte, batteries can be divided into: alkaline battery, acid battery, neutral battery and organic electrolyte battery.

In accordance with working principle and storage mode, batteries can be divided into primary battery and secondary (storage) battery.

In accordance with positive and negative electrode materials, batteries can be divided into Zinc series battery, Nickel series battery, Lead series battery, Lithium series battery, Manganese dioxide series battery, and Air (oxygen) series battery.
