    摘要: A compact battery unit of refillable aluminum-air battery with concurrent hydrogen utilization system comprises a stack core, an electrolyte circulation system, an air circulation system, a hydrogen fuel battery and hydrogen storage facility. The stack core is assembled by one or more cylindrical cells, a cell base, a cell house, an electrolyte cover, an air cover, a hydrogen cover, an electrolyte outlet sink, a electrolyte inlet chamber, soft pipes and a vibrator. The cylindrical cell is further assembled from a cylindrical cathode and a cylindrical anode. The cylindrical cathode comprises a multi-layer cathode electrode, a support frame and a cathode electric connector. And the cylindrical anode comprises an electric-conductive frame, anode membrane meshes, granular aluminia etc. Strong alkaline electrolyte, such as NaOH, is used to make it possible to mechanically recharge the aluminum-air battery.

    摘要: In an aspect, an electrochemical cell comprises: a positive electrode; a negative electrode; and a solid state electrolyte in ionic communication with the positive electrode and the negative electrode; wherein: the electrolyte is characterized by formula (FX1): MPS3 (FX1); wherein M is one or more metal cations and optionally metal cation vacancies; and wherein at least one of said one or more metal cations is a divalent cation; the electrolyte is characterized by a divalent ion conductivity; and the electrolyte is electrically insulating. The solid state electrolyte is optionally not an electrocatalyst material or does not function as an electrocatalyst in the electrochemical cell during operation (e.g., charging and/or discharging) of the electrochemical cell. The solid state electrolyte is optionally not an electrode or does not function as an electrode in the electrochemical cell during operation (e.g., charging and/or discharging) of the electrochemical cell.
