Materials Data on LiReO4 by Materials Project

Abstract

LiReO4 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form LiO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with five ReO4 tetrahedra and edges with two LiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.04–2.21 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with six ReO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one LiO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.07–2.36 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with six ReO4 tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.09–2.31 Å. There are three inequivalent Re7+ sites. In the first Re7+ site, Re7+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form ReO4 tetrahedra that share corners with five LiO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 27–60°. There are a spread of Re–O bond distances ranging from 1.74–1.77 Å. In the second Re7+ site, Re7+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form ReO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four LiO6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 15–56°. There are a spread of Re–O bond distances ranging from 1.74–1.77 Å. In the third Re7+ site, Re7+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form ReO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three LiO6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 13–52°. There is three shorter (1.75 Å) and one longer (1.77 Å) Re–O bond length. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Li1+ and one Re7+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Li1+ and one Re7+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Li1+ and one Re7+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Li1+ and one Re7+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Li1+ and one Re7+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Li1+ and one Re7+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Li1+ and one Re7+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Li1+ and one Re7+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Li1+ and one Re7+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Li1+ and one Re7+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Li1+ and one Re7+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Li1+ and one Re7+ atom.

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.
