Abstract

AgCN3H3O4 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ag2+ sites. In the first Ag2+ site, Ag2+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to two N+0.33- and five O2- atoms. There are one shorter (2.77 Å) and one longer (2.82 Å) Ag–N bond lengths. There are a spread of Ag–O bond distances ranging from 2.36–2.89 Å. In the second Ag2+ site, Ag2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one N+0.33- and three O2- atoms. The Ag–N bond length is 2.06 Å. There are one shorter (2.21 Å) and two longer (2.50 Å) Ag–O bond lengths. There are two inequivalent C4+ sites. In the first C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two N+0.33- and one O2- atom. There is one shorter (1.36 Å) and one longer (1.37 Å) C–N bond length. The C–O bond length is 1.26 Å. In the second C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two N+0.33- and one O2- atom. There is one shorter (1.34 Å) and one longer (1.37 Å) C–N bond length. The C–O bond length is 1.27 Å. There are six inequivalent N+0.33- sites. In the first N+0.33- site, N+0.33- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ag2+, one C4+, and two H1+ atoms. There is one shorter (1.02 Å) and one longer (1.03 Å) N–H bond length.

In the sixth N+0.33- site, N+0.33- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of N–O bond distances ranging from 1.26–1.28 Å. There are six inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.33- atom. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.33- atom. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.33- atom. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.33- atom. In the fifth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.33- atom. In the sixth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.33- atom. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ag2+ and one N+0.33- atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Ag2+ and one N+0.33- atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ag2+ and one N+0.33- 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.
