“…The iron redox couples are the most appealing candidates for RFBs owing to their low cost, ecofriendliness, non-toxicity, high solubility, abundance, and steady electrochemical reversibility. For instance, various iron-based RFBs have been proposed over the past decades such as Fe/Cr, 56 Fe/V, 57 Fe/Cd, 58 Fe/Pb, 59 all iron, 60 and Zn/Fe 61 RFBs, respectively. However, every system has its own critical issues which need to be addressed.…”
