I-CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts kanye neSan Leandro, eCalifornia.Isiqalo esisha esibizwa nge-Quino Energy sifuna ukuletha emakethe isisombululo sokugcina amandla esilinganisweni segridi esakhiwe abacwaningi base-Harvard ukuze kugqugquzelwe ukwamukelwa okubanzi kwamandla avuselelekayo.
Njengamanje, cishe u-12% kagesi okhiqizwa izinsiza e-US uvela emandleni omoya namandla elanga, ahluka ngezindlela zesimo sezulu sansuku zonke.Ukuze umoya nelanga lidlale indima enkulu ekukhipheni ikhabhoni igridi kuyilapho lisahlangabezana ngokuthembekile nesidingo sabathengi, abaqhubi begridi bayasibona isidingo sokuthumela amasistimu okugcina amandla angakafakazelwa ukuthi angabizi kakhulu ngezinga elikhulu.
Amabhethri agelezayo e-redox athuthukile njengamanje athuthukiswayo angasiza ekunikezeni ibhalansi evuna wona.Ibhethri eligelezayo lisebenzisa i-aqueous organic electrolyte kanye nososayensi bezinto ze-Harvard abaholwa ngu-Michael Aziz no-Roy Gordon we-John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) kanye noMnyango Wekhemistry, Ukuthuthukiswa Kwekhemistri kanye Nebhayoloji Yamakhemikhali.I-Harvard Office of Technology Development (OTD) inikeze i-Quino Energy ilayisense elikhethekile lomhlaba wonke lokuthengisa amasistimu okugcina amandla kusetshenziswa amakhemikhali akhonjwe elabhorethri, okuhlanganisa i-quinone noma izinhlanganisela ze-hydroquinone njengezisetshenziswa ezisebenzayo kuma-electrolyte.Abasunguli be-Quino bakholelwa ukuthi uhlelo lunganikeza izinzuzo zenguquko ngokuya ngezindleko, ukuphepha, ukuzinza namandla.
“Izindleko zomoya kanye nogesi welanga zehle kakhulu kangangokuthi isithiyo esikhulu sokuthola amandla amaningi kule mithombo evuselelekayo wukunqamuka kwawo.Indawo yokugcina izinto evikelekile, elinganiselayo futhi engabizi kakhulu ingaxazulula le nkinga,” kusho u-Aziz, umqondisi weGene.kanye noTracy Sykes, uSolwazi Wezinto kanye Nobuchwepheshe Bamandla eNyuvesi yase-Harvard SEAS kanye noSolwazi Ohlangene e-Harvard Environmental Center.Ungumsunguli we-Quino Energy futhi usebenza ebhodini labo lokweluleka kwesayensi.“Mayelana ne-grid-scale storage fixed, ufuna idolobha lakho lisebenze ebusuku kungekho moya ngaphandle kokushisa izinto zokubasa.Ngaphansi kwezimo zezulu ezijwayelekile, ungathola izinsuku ezimbili noma ezintathu futhi ngokuqinisekile uzothola amahora ayisishiyagalombili ngaphandle kokukhanya kwelanga, ngakho-ke ubude besikhathi sokukhipha amahora angu-5 kuya kwangu-20 ngamandla alinganiselwe bungaba usizo kakhulu.Lena inketho engcono kakhulu yamabhethri agelezayo, futhi sikholwa ukuthi angaqhathaniswa namabhethri e-lithium-ion esikhathi esifushane, anokuncintisana kakhulu.”
"Ukugcinwa kwegridi yesikhathi eside kanye ne-microgrid kuyithuba elikhulu futhi elikhulayo, ikakhulukazi eCalifornia lapho sibonisa khona i-prototype yethu," kusho uDkt. Eugene Beh, umsunguli kanye noMphathi Omkhulu we-Quino Energy.Uzalelwe e-Singapore, u-Beh wathola iziqu zakhe ze-bachelor kanye ne-masters e-Harvard University ngo-2009 kanye ne-Ph.D yakhe.kusuka eNyuvesi yaseStanford, ebuyela eHarvard njengomcwaningi kusukela ngo-2015 kuya ku-2017.
Ukuqaliswa kokuncibilika emanzini kweqembu le-Harvard kungase kunikeze indlela engabizi kakhulu nesebenzayo kunamanye amabhethri agelezayo athembele ezinsimbi ezimbiwayo ezibizayo, ezinomkhawulo-scalable ezifana ne-vanadium.Ngaphezu kukaGordon no-Aziz, abasunguli abangu-16 basebenzisa ulwazi lwabo lwesayensi yezinto zokwakha kanye nokuhlanganiswa kwamakhemikhali ukuze bahlonze, bakhe futhi bahlole imindeni yamangqamuzana enamandla afanele, ukuncibilika, ukuzinza kanye nezindleko zokwenziwa.Muva nje e-Nature Chemistry ngoJuni 2022, babonise uhlelo oluphelele lwebhethri olunqoba ukuthambekela kwalawa ma-molecule e-anthraquinone ukonakala ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.Ngokusebenzisa ama-voltage pulses angahleliwe ohlelweni, bakwazi ukuhlela kabusha ama-molecule aphethe amandla ngokwe-electrochemical, banweba kakhulu impilo yesistimu futhi ngaleyo ndlela behlisa izindleko zayo zizonke.
"Siklame futhi sahlela kabusha izinguqulo zalawa makhemikhali ngokuzinza kwesikhathi eside engqondweni - okusho ukuthi sizame ukudlula kubo ngezindlela ezihlukahlukene," kusho uGordon, uThomas D. Cabot uSolwazi weKhemistry kanye neChemical Biology, osethathe umhlalaphansi.ophinde abe ngumeluleki wesayensi kaQuino.“Abafundi bethu bebesebenza kanzima ukuhlonza ama-molecule angakwazi ukumelana nezimo abahlangabezana nazo kumabhethri ezifundazweni ezahlukene.Ngokusekelwe kulokho esikutholile, sinethemba lokuthi amabhethri agelezayo agcwaliswe ngamaseli ashibhile navamile angahlangabezana nezidingo zesikhathi esizayo zokugcinwa kwamandla okuthuthukisiwe.”
Ngaphezu kokukhethelwa ukubamba iqhaza ngokugcwele ku-2022 Harvard Climate Entrepreneurship Circle, uhlelo lwe-Berkeley Haas Cleantech IPO, kanye ne-Rice Alliance Clean Energy Acceleration Program (eqanjwe ngenye yeziqalo zobuchwepheshe zamandla ezithembisa kakhulu), u-Quino naye uqashelwe. ngoMnyango Wezamandla Wase-United States (i-DOE) ukhethe amaRandi ayizigidi ezingu-4.58 kuxhaso lwezimali olungaguquki oluvela eHhovisi Lomnyango Wezamandla Lokukhiqiza Okuthuthukile, elizosekela ukuthuthukiswa kwenkampani kwamakhemikhali enqubo yokwenziwa angalawuleki, aqhubekayo, futhi angabizi kakhulu. amabhethri e-organic flow amanzi.
UBeh wengeze wathi: “Sibonga uMnyango wezaMandla ngokuseseka okukhulu.Inqubo okuxoxwa ngayo ingase ivumele i-Quino ukuthi idale ama-reagents ebhethri asebenza kahle ngokusuka ezintweni ezingavuthiwe kusetshenziswa ukusabela kwe-electrochemical okungenzeka ngaphakathi kwebhethri ngokwayo.Uma siphumelela, ngaphandle kwesidingo semboni yamakhemikhali - empeleni , ibhethri eligeleza liyisitshalo ngokwaso - sikholelwa ukuthi lokhu kuzohlinzeka ngezindleko eziphansi zokukhiqiza ezidingekayo ukuze kuphumelele ukuhweba."
Ngokutshala imali kubuchwepheshe obusha, uMnyango Wezamandla wase-US uhlose ukunciphisa izindleko zesikali segridi yokugcina amandla esikhathi eside ngamaphesenti angama-90 phakathi neminyaka eyishumi uma kuqhathaniswa nezilinganiso ze-lithium-ion.Ingxenye yenkontileka engaphansi yomklomelo we-DOE izosekela ucwaningo olwengeziwe lokusungula ikhemistri yebhethri eligelezayo le-Harvard.
"Izixazululo zesikhathi eside ze-Quino Energy zokugcina amandla zinikeza amathuluzi abalulekile kubenzi bezinqubomgomo kanye nabaqhubi begridi njengoba silwela ukufeza umgomo wenqubomgomo emibili yokwandisa ukungena kwamandla avuselelekayo kuyilapho sigcina ukwethembeka kwegridi," kusho owayenguKhomishana WaseTexas Public Utilities kanye no-CEO wamanje uBrett Perlman.Houston Future Center.
Uxhaso lwemali ye-DOE eyizigidi ezingama-US $4.58 luxhaswe umjikelezo wembewu ka-Quino osanda kuvalwa, onyuse amaRandi ayizigidi ezi-3.3 eqenjini labatshalizimali eliholwa yi-ANRI, enye yezinkampani ezinkulu zaseTokyo ezisebenza kakhulu.I-TechEnergy Ventures, inhloko-dolobha yebhizinisi ye-Techint Group yophiko lokudlulisa amandla, nayo ibambe iqhaza kulo mjikelezo.
Ngaphezu kukaBeh, Aziz noGordon, umsunguli we-Quino Energy ungunjiniyela wamakhemikhali uDkt. Maysam Bahari.Ubengumfundi wobudokotela eHarvard futhi manje useyi-CTO yenkampani.
UJoseph Santo, oyisikhulu sokutshalwa kwezimali kwa-Arevon Energy kanye nomeluleki we-Quino Energy, uthe: “Imakethe kagesi idinga kakhulu ukugcinwa kwezindleko eziphansi zesikhathi eside ukuze kuncishiswe ukuntengantenga ngenxa yesimo sezulu esibi kugridi yethu futhi isize ukuhlanganisa ukungena okusabalele ezivuselelekayo.”
Uqhube wathi: “Amabhethri e-lithium-ion abhekene nezingqinamba ezinkulu ezinjengobunzima bokuthengwa kwempahla, ukwenyuka ngokuphindwe kahlanu kwezindleko ze-lithium carbonate uma kuqhathaniswa nonyaka odlule, kanye nesidingo esincintisanayo sabakhiqizi bezimoto zikagesi.Kuyagculisa ukuthi ikhambi le-Quino lingakhiqizwa kusetshenziswa izimpahla ezingekho eshalofini, futhi isikhathi eside singatholakala.”
Izibonelelo zocwaningo lwezemfundo ezivela eMnyangweni Wezamandla wase-US, i-National Science Foundation, kanye ne-National Renewable Energy Laboratory ukwesekwa okusha okunikezwe ilayisense ku-Quino Energy yi-Harvard Research.Ilabhorethri ka-Aziz nayo ithole uxhaso lwemali yocwaningo lokuhlola kule ndawo evela eMassachusetts Clean Energy Center.Njengazo zonke izivumelwano zamalayisense e-Harvard, iNyuvesi inelungelo lokuthi izikhungo zocwaningo ezingenzi nzuzo ziqhubeke nokukhiqiza nokusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe obunelayisense ocwaningweni, ezemfundo, kanye nezinjongo zesayensi.
