Abstract: A cell plate has a frame body and a cell plate in fluidic communication. The cell plate is coupled to the frame body using a flexible member, which allows for some independent movement of the cell plate vis-à-vis the frame body. A plurality of cell plate assemblies may be coupled together to form a cell stack. The cell stack may be put to use in a redox flow battery.

Abstract: A cell plate assembly of a redox flow battery has a frame body and a cell plate in fluidic communication. Cell plates, electrolyte pathways and other components of the frame plate assembly may be overmolded inside a frame. Plates, frames and tubes may all be robustly sealed. One piece bonded plug and frames enable reduced use of O-rings and other wear items.

Abstract: A segmented frame plate is provided, which may be used in a frame plate assembly of a redox flow battery cell stack. A plurality of segmented frame plates may couple together around a perimeter of a cell plate. Each segmented frame plate may provide fluidic communication from/to a redox flow reservoir and/or another frame plate assembly to a cell plate of the frame plate assembly.

Abstract: A cell plate of a redox flow battery adapted to provide laminar flow. The cell plate may have a flow frame including a plurality of feed channels interdigitated with a plurality of exhaust channels so as to channel the electrolyte solution through the cell plate and induce proton exchange between a catholyte portion and an anolyte portion. The feed channels and exhaust channels are sized and spaced to manipulate the flowrate and pressure of the electrolyte solution channeled therethrough. In some aspects, the flowrate and pressure are controlled such that the fluid pumps may have a reduced size and speed, thereby reducing the parasitic load on the system and increasing system efficiencies.

Abstract: This disclosure describes a module web coating system and components thereof including a more uniform atmospheric control pumping mechanism and gas curtain separation system. A modular web coating system may include an unwind module, any number of process modules, and a rewind module. The process modules are interchangeable and independently operable. In addition, this disclosure describes a more uniform pumping system in which process gas is removed from multiple locations or slits spaced around a process chamber and, in an example, around a process device such as a deposition source. The gas curtain system utilizes a zone between process chambers into which separation gas is injected. Gas from the chambers is continuously removed thereby operating the chambers under negative pressure and preventing process gas from one chamber bleeding into an adjacent chamber.
