Description

The invention relates to a proton flow reactor for use in storing and releasing energy. In use, a slurry of storage particles in a liquid electrolyte may pass through a first half cell of the proton flow reactor. When the proton flow reactor is in charge mode, protons are bonded or otherwise attracted to the storage particles to form charged storage particles charged with hydrogen, which can hen be stored and/or transported for later use. When the proton flow reactor is in discharge mode, protons are removed from the charged storage particles to fuel an electrochemical reaction, thereby generating electricity. Alternatively, the proton flow reactor in discharge mode can be configured to generate hydrogen gas directly from the in-flowing charged carbon particles.
