Abstract

Rechargeable metal-CO2 batteries (RMCBs) are highly promising for renewable energy storage and simultaneous reduction of carbon footprint from the environment, making it very attractive for next-generation battery development. An electrolyte plays a crucial role in RMCBs and determines the choice of metal anode, kinetics of reactions taking place at electrode-electrolyte interface and thus the battery performance. We comprehensively review the advances in liquid electrolytes for RMCBs, namely, non-aqueous and aqueous, to foster a clear picture of the future RMCBs and their potential applications depedning on the electrolyte system. The advantages and disadvantages of both systems and a stern comparison amongst them is also discussed. The projected battery market/economics and current status in harmony with sustainable energy storage-decarbonization for aqueous and non-aqueous RMCBs is derived followed by the overall summary and outlook. We aim to summarize the existing status and potential of aqueous and non-aqueous RMCBs along with likely improvements necessary for the real-time application of RMCBs.

金属-二氧化碳电池的同步能量储存和脱碳：水或非水？

可充电金属-二氧化碳电池（rmcb）在可再生能源存储和同时减少环境碳足迹方面具有很高的前景，使其对下一代电池的开发非常有吸引力。电解质在rmcb中起着至关重要的作用，它决定了金属阳极的选择、在电极-电解质界面发生的反应动力学以及电池的性能。本文综合评述了rmcb的液体电解质的研究进展，即非水电解质和水电解质，从而对未来的rmcb及其基于电解质体系的潜在应用前景有一个清晰的认识。讨论了这两种制度的优缺点，并对它们进行了严格的比较。推导了与水和非水rmcb可持续能源储存脱碳相协调的预计电池市场/经济和现状，然后进行了总体总结和展望。我们的目的是总结现有的现状和潜力的水和非水的RMCBs以及可能需要改进的RMCBs的实时应用。
