Abstract

Na3(WO3)10 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Na1+ sites. In the first Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form NaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six NaO12 cuboctahedra and faces with eight WO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.72–2.75 Å. In the second Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form NaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four NaO12 cuboctahedra and faces with eight WO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.72–2.75 Å. There are six inequivalent W+5.70+ sites. In the first W+5.70+ site, W+5.70+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form WO6 octahedra that share corners with six WO6 octahedra and faces with three NaO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–2°. There are a spread of W–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–1.96 Å. In the second W+5.70+ site, W+5.70+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form WO6 octahedra that share corners with six WO6 octahedra and faces with two equivalent NaO12 cuboctahedra.

The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 2°. There is four shorter (1.94 Å) and two longer (1.95 Å) W–O bond length. In the sixth W+5.70+ site, W+5.70+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form WO6 octahedra that share corners with six WO6 octahedra and faces with two equivalent NaO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–2°. There are a spread of W–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–1.98 Å. There are eleven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Na1+ and two W+5.70+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Na1+ and two W+5.70+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to two equivalent Na1+ and two equivalent W+5.70+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Na1+ and two W+5.70+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to two Na1+ and two W+5.70+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Na1+ and two W+5.70+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Na1+ and two W+5.70+ atoms.

Cyclic moisture reactivation of calcium sorbents for long duration thermochemical energy storage

The transition to a flexible and reliable energy infrastructure, using electro-thermal energy generation technologies such as geothermal, concentrated solar power, and nuclear, usually demands simultaneous advancement of thermal energy storage (TES) to support on-demand electricity generation and industrial applications while mitigating the inherent intermittency of renewable energy sources and power outages from direct energy generation. Among TES technologies, thermochemical energy storage (TCES) based on calcium looping emerges as a compelling high-power energy storage candidate due to its high reaction enthalpy, compatibility with elevated operating temperatures, and abundance of low-cost materials. However, the long-term durability of calcium-based sorbents for TCES is hindered by surface sintering and particle aggregation, leading to performance degradation over repeated thermal cycles. This study explores a moisture hydration-based strategy to regenerate a degraded calcium sorbent and mitigate performance degradation for long duration TCES. The addition of moisture transforms calcium oxide into calcium hydroxide and produces intercalation water layers, associated with a regenerated surface area and reduced calcium oxide crystallite size. Both these effects are beneficial in restoring the sorbents' reactivity for carbonization. Additionally, an optimized hydration-assisted reactivation protocol balances the recovered energy storage capacity with heating penalty required for moisture removal from hydrated samples, resulting in an enhanced energy storage capacity up to 176% compared to benchmark sorbents that undergo cycling without reactivation after 60 cycles. In conclusion, these results highlight the potential of hydration-assisted reactivation to enhance the long-term performance of TCES, providing an effective pathway to advancing electro-thermal storage technologies.
