flow-cell battery research
(OP)
I'm trying to locate recent research on flow-cell batteries,
select-permiable membranes that could be used in these
batteries, and redox reactions that match any such membranes. Maybe I'm a dreamer, but my ultimate ambition is to stimulate development of a new, non-toxic, cheap, liquid reactant for an electric automobile. I read about some research that NASA did in the late 70's on an iron-redox system, but can't find anything or anyone who knows about it now. There was mentioned a demonstration project at a Jr. College in Arkansas, but I can't find that either. All I can find on the Web is a vanadium flow-cell project in Australia co-sponsored by a mining company and the University of New South Wales. They seem to be on the same track as me, but haven't had much real success. Any information or help finding information would be greatly appreciated.

Our company, Cellennium Co. Ltd., plans to have commercilized products by the end of next year. Initial standard system will be sized at 6 kW; energy storage can vary by adding electrolytes. Our technology is owned by Squirrel Holdings, which has no relationship whatsoever with the Unisearch/Pinnacle camp.

So far, information has been almost impossible to find, even with going to the local University's main library.
Any leads would be greatly appreciated!!

We discuss some redox batteries, including the vanadium.
You might also go to the US patent office site and
search for patents in this area.

Which fields?

typed in abst/redox AND abst/iron AND abst/membrane
and got two hits. I am sure that more poking an prodding
could get you some good information.
