Research on properties of salt lake energy storage materials -Lithium - Ion Battery Equipment
As an emerging energy technology, solar thermal power generation technology is an important technical field in my country to promote the strategy of "energy saving and efficiency improvement". As the core technology of solar thermal power generation, the selection and preparation of heat storage materials are particularly important.
According to the Qinghai Salt Lake Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, molten salt (including nitric acid molten salt) has become the first choice for CSP energy storage materials due to its unique performance advantages such as large heat capacity, low viscosity, low vapor pressure, and wide temperature.(Lithium - Ion Battery Equipment)
It is understood that the research team of Wang Min from the Salt Lake Resource Chemistry Laboratory of the Institute uses salt lake resources as raw materials to prepare low-melting ternary molten salt energy storage materials and introduce carbon nanotubes into the nitrate system, which further improves its performance. Thermal conductivity. This move not only provides the theoretical basis for the preparation and supply of nitric acid molten salt heat storage materials, but also opens up more possibilities for its application in CSP.
Statistics from my country's State Grid Qinghai Electric Power Company show that the Qinghai power grid currently has a total installed capacity of 27.78 million kilowatts, including 12.08 million kilowatts of solar and wind power, making it the province's largest power source.
Qinghai Province is rich in salt lakes, and reducing the production cost of related phase change energy storage materials will help promote the large-scale development of solar energy and the adjustment and optimization of energy structure.
