Zinc-based batteries are rechargeable, using zinc as the anode material. During discharge, zinc atoms oxidize, releasing zinc ions that travel through the electrolyte to the cathode, where they are reduced and incorporated into the cathode structure. . Zinc-based flow batteries have gained widespread attention and are considered to be one of the most promising large-scale energy storage devices for increasing the utilization of intermittently sustainable energy. However, the formation of zinc dendrites at anodes has seriously depressed their. . Zinc-based liquid flow batteries have attracted much attention due to their high energy density, low cost, and environmental-friendliness. This review discusses the latest progress in sustainable long-term energy storage, especially the development of redox slurry electrodes and their significant. . ating, corrosion protection and automotive vehicles [11,12,15–17]. At present, conventional baths for zinc electrodeposi-tion are still mainly based on zincate (alkaline) [18], chloride (a out in non-aqueous solvents or room-temperature ionic-liquids [29]. For large-scale energy storage devices. . However, zinc-based batteries are emerging as a more sustainable, cost-effective, and high-performance alternative. 1,2 This article explores recent advances, challenges, and future directions for zinc-based batteries.
