Figure 18. Example image of immersion behavior (bubbling) 3.2.2 Evidence of Significant Water Intrusion As would likely be expected from batteries experiencing a relatively long period of immersion, all the batteries tested showed significant signs of degradation due to water intrusion across all major components. Despite having their protective cases installed, water was found to easily enter the packs during immersion as the tank selected was sufficiently deep to fully immerse the batteries with a significant amount of water above them. The following figures highlight some of the observed degradation across the various test subjects, which was consistent across the different immersion scenarios. Figure 19 highlights a common set of battery cell and module degradation observed across all of the immersion tests in that a significant amount of battery cell leakage and corrosion can be seen for multiple cells. In addition to the cells themselves, significant corrosion can also be seen for the module enclosure and metal mounting surfaces of the battery. Figure 19.

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)
