Question

Describe the construction of lead acid battery

Answer 1

Answer:

A Lead Acid Battery consists of Plates, Separator, and Electrolyte, Hard Plastic with a hard rubber case. ... These two plates are separated using a separator which is an insulating material. This total construction is kept in a hard plastic case with an electrolyte. The electrolyte is water and sulfuric acid.

Answer 2

• Lead–acid batteries are the dominant market for lead.
• The Advanced Lead–Acid Battery Consortium (ALABC) has been working on the development and promotion of lead-based batteries for sustainable markets such as hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), start–stop automotive systems and grid-scale energy storage applications.
• For over a decade now, ALABC has also been working on addition of carbon to the negative plate to extend the life of batteries and to enhance the dynamic charge-acceptance of lead–acid batteries.
• It has demonstrated the technology in a new generation of lead–carbon (LC) batteries that have started to emerge in the marketplace.
• In 2013, a US DOE (Department of Energy) funded project, ALABC demonstrated that the Ultra BatteryTM, first developed by Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) in Australia and Furu kawa Battery of Japan, is market-ready in the form of a 12-V Super Hybrid LC battery in a Honda Civic HEV.
• ALABC is also working on developing a 48-V LC battery version of the mild-hybrid to offer a 25% enhanced fuel economy. ,.
• Over the last decade, the market for lead–acid batteries has continued to grow for enhanced stationary applications such as smart-grid frequency regulation facilities and (uninterruptible power supply) UPS systems.
• ALABC has also developed advanced VRLA designs such as the absorptive glass-mat (AGM) batteries for deep-cycling applications.
• Such advances make it possible for lead–acid batteries to meet the ever increasing demand for energy storage especially from renewable sources.
• The worldwide installed capacity for advanced lead–acid batteries is expected to grow from 77 MW in 2013 to 5044 MW by 2020 .
