The zinc–bromine (ZBRFB) is a hybrid flow battery. A solution of is stored in two tanks. When the battery is charged or discharged, the solutions (electrolytes) are pumped through a reactor stack from one tank to the other. One tank is used to store the electrolyte for positive electrode reactions, and the other stores the negative. range between 60 and 85 W·h/kg.

The cell uses redox-active species in fluid (liquid or gas) media. Redox flow batteries are rechargeable () cells. Because they employ rather than or they are more similar to fuel cells than to conventional batteries. The main reason fuel cells are not considered to be batteries, is because originally (in the 1800s) fuel cells emerged as a means to produce electricity directly from fuels (and air) via a non-comb.

A zinc-bromine battery is a system that uses the reaction between metal and to produce , with an composed of an aqueous solution of . Zinc has long been used as the negative electrode of . It is a widely available, relatively inexpensive metal. It is rather stable in contact with neutral and alkaline aqueous solutions. For this reason, it is used today in and primaries.

A flow battery is a rechargeable in which an containing one or more dissolved electroactive elements flows through an that reversibly converts to . Electroactive elements are "elements in solution that can take part in an electrode reaction or that can be on the electrode." Electrolyte is stored externally, generally in tanks, and is typically pumped through the cell (or c.

Are flow batteries in demand?
Strong, long-duration storage systems like flow batteries are anticipated to become increasingly in demand as the world moves more toward renewable energy, especially in the industrial and utility-scale sectors.
What are the different types of flow batteries?
Some of the types of flow batteries include: Vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) – is currently the most commercialized and technologically mature flow battery technology. All iron flow battery – All-iron flow batteries are divided into acidic and alkaline systems, and acidic all-iron flow batteries are relatively mature in commercial development.
What is the energy density of a hybrid flow battery?
In 2016, a high energy density Mn (VI)/Mn (VII)-Zn hybrid flow battery was proposed. A prototype zinc – polyiodide flow battery demonstrated an energy density of 167 Wh/L. Older zinc–bromide cells reach 70 Wh/L. For comparison, lithium iron phosphate batteries store 325 Wh/L.
