Materials Data on CoH22N7(ClO2)4 by Materials Project

Abstract

(CoN3H6O4Cl)2(NH4)2(N3H12Cl)2(ClO4)2Cl2 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two ammonium molecules, two hydrochloric acid molecules, two ClO4 clusters, two CoN3H6O4Cl clusters, and two N3H12Cl clusters. In each ClO4 cluster, there are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 1.46 Å. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 1.47 Å. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 1.47 Å. Cl1- is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. In each CoN3H6O4Cl cluster, Co3+ is bonded to three N+0.71- and one O2- atom to form CoN3O tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one ClO4 tetrahedra. There is one shorter (1.85 Å) and two longer (1.94 Å) Co–N bond length. The Co–O bond length is 2.03 Å. There are two inequivalent N+0.71- sites. In the first N+0.71- site, N+0.71- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Co3+ and two equivalent H1+ atoms. Both N–H bond lengths are 1.03 Å. In the second N+0.71- site, N+0.71- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Co3+ and two H1+ atoms. Both N–H bond lengths are 1.03 Å. There are three inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.71- atom. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.71- atom. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.71- atom. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 1.46 Å. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 1.47 Å. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Co3+ and one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 1.46 Å. Cl1- is bonded to four O2- atoms to form ClO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one CoN3O tetrahedra. In each N3H12Cl cluster, there are two inequivalent N+0.71- sites. In the first N+0.71- site, N+0.71- is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four H1+ atoms. There are a spread of N–H bond distances ranging from 1.03–1.06 Å. In the second N+0.71- site, N+0.71- is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four H1+ atoms. There is three shorter (1.03 Å) and one longer (1.06 Å) N–H bond length. There are seven inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.71- and one Cl1- atom. The H–Cl bond length is 2.00 Å. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.71- atom. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.71- atom. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.71- atom. In the fifth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.71- and one Cl1- atom. The H–Cl bond length is 1.97 Å. In the sixth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.71- atom. In the seventh H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.71- atom. Cl1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three H1+ 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.
