3.2 Experimental detail 3.2.1 Preparation of the cell components NASICON ceramic membrane (Na3Zr2Si2PO12) was used as a solid electrolyte to separate the seawater cathode from the anode. The NASICON solid electrolytes were fabricated by a solid-state reaction based on our previous study (Figure 36, Figure 37).38, 75, 76 The ionic conductivity of the NASICON ceramic membrane was measured as ~5 × 10-4 S cm-1 and the density was measured as ~3.16 g cm-3 (~95% of the theoretical value) at room temperature (Figure 38). Carbon felts (XP-30A, Toyobo Co., Ltd) with an electrical resistance of 0.15–0.20 Ωcm2 were used as the cathode current collector. Prior to use, carbon felts were heat-treated to improve the hydrophilicity of the surface at 500°C (at a ramping rate of 2°C min-1) for 2 h in ambient air. Figure 36.

Product and Development Focus for Salgenx
Redox Flow Battery Technology: With the advent of the new USA tax credits for producing and selling batteries ($35/kW) we are focussing on a simple flow battery using shipping containers as the modular electrolyte storage units with tax credits up to $140,000 per system. Our main focus is on the salt battery. This battery can be used for both thermal and electrical storage applications. We call it the Cogeneration Battery or Cogen Battery. One project is converting salt (brine) based water conditioners to simultaneously produce power. In addition, there are many opportunities to extract Lithium from brine (salt lakes, groundwater, and producer water).Salt water or brine are huge sources for lithium. Most of the worlds lithium is acquired from a brine source. It's even in seawater in a low concentration. Brine is also a byproduct of huge powerplants, which can now use that as an electrolyte and a huge flow battery (which allows storage at the source).We welcome any business and equipment inquiries, as well as licensing our flow battery manufacturing.CONTACT TEL: 608-238-6001 Email: greg@salgenx.com (Standard Web Page)
