Aqueous electrolyte-based rechargeable batteries are of interest as an alternative to organic-solvent based secondary batteries. Two primary reasons include the batteries being inherently non-combustible and potentially lower cost. In addition, the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte is high, which enables rapid charge and discharge. Recent innovations are aimed at extending the voltage limit of aqueous systems, and increasing the energy density and cycle life. More broadly, electrochemical systems using aqueous systems are the subject of R&D in such diverse fields as desalination, lithium extraction, and separation technologies.
