Abstract

CdC2H9(N2O5)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic P2_12_12_1 space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of two CdC2H9(N2O5)2 ribbons oriented in the (0, 1, 0) direction. Cd2+ is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cd–O bond distances ranging from 2.28–2.46 Å. There are two inequivalent C+3.50+ sites. In the first C+3.50+ site, C+3.50+ is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one N+0.50+, one H1+, and one O2- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.32 Å. The C–H bond length is 1.10 Å. The C–O bond length is 1.27 Å. In the second C+3.50+ site, C+3.50+ is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one N+0.50+ and one O2- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.31 Å. The C–O bond length is 1.24 Å. There are four inequivalent N+0.50+ sites. In the first N+0.50+ site, N+0.50+ is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one C+3.50+ and two H1+ atoms. Both N–H bond lengths are 1.02 Å. In the second N+0.50+ site, N+0.50+ is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one C+3.50+ and two H1+ atoms. Both N–H bond lengths are 1.03 Å. In the third N+0.50+ site, N+0.50+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.25 Å) and one longer (1.30 Å) N–O bond length. In the fourth N+0.50+ site, N+0.50+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of N–O bond distances ranging from 1.25–1.31 Å. There are nine inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.50+ atom. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.50+ atom. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.50+ atom. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.50+ atom. In the fifth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 1.00 Å. In the sixth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. In the seventh H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.00 Å) and one longer (1.76 Å) H–O bond length. In the eighth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the ninth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+3.50+ atom. There are ten inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Cd2+ and one C+3.50+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Cd2+ and one C+3.50+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cd2+, one N+0.50+, and one H1+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.50+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.50+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Cd2+ and one N+0.50+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.50+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.50+ 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.
