Original Abstract

A rejuvenation process of a very old nickel-iron accumulator (about 75 years old) is described in this article. The supposed nominal parameters of the accumulator are 12V/(8Ah -10Ah). All cells of the accumulator were rejuvenated by a quite long and laborious process including 11 cycles of charging and discharging, several changing of the electrolyte and even using a deep discharging to improve the capacity of the negative iron electrode. The charging and discharging characteristics of all cells were measured during the rejuvenation.
