Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>The frontispiece shows</bold> an external view of a pilot ZnCe redox flow cell stack nominally rated at 0.25 kA and 0.5 kW. The cell comprises &gt; 60 bipolar titanium electrodes of approximate size 60 cm×40 cm for the negative zinc electrode compartment and a similar number of platinized titanium electrodes for the cerium compartment. The projected area of each electrode is 0.24 m² with an interelectrode gap of 2.5 mm. An expanded view of a single cell is also presented together with performance data showing the variation of the coulombic, voltage, and energy efficiency with the number of cycles. The development of ZnCe hybrid redox flow batteries is highlighted in the Review by Frank C. Walsh et al. on page <ext-link ext-link-type="doi" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">288</ext-link>.<boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgh3tp6hv6w" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
