How chlorine energy storage works

How is chlorine stored?

Chlorine is stored as a liquid at ambient or low temperature. It can be used as a feedstock for on-site processes or loaded into containers, road, or rail tankers. Due to its high toxicity, the storage area must be carefully monitored, and special care must be taken during loading operations.

How does a chlorine gas system work?

Chlorine gas is pumped into the cupric chloride or ferric chloride. The chlorine gas reacts with the spent etchant to regenerate the free acid and cupric or ferric chloride. Chlorine gas systems will need a water input as well to keep the specific gravity under control. Then the etchant is ready to etch metal.

How does a chlorine room work?

These are screen shots of my chlorine room for treating germy water or polluted water. Three liquid reservoirs sit in a chlorine room with air pressure around 1000 grams per tile. There are two unpowered mechanized doors controlled by clock sensors. When a door is open below the liquid reservoir then its accumulated liquid cannot flow out.

Could a new battery chemistry be powered by chloride ions?

Credit: SciTechDaily.com In a bold leap toward more sustainable energy storage, researchers at Worcester Polytechnic Institute have discovered a revolutionary battery chemistry powered by chloride ions—the most abundant negatively charged ions in seawater.
