Abstract

Rh(RuH(CO)3)3(CO)3 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of six formaldehyde molecules, two rhodium molecules, and two RuH(CO)3 clusters. In each RuH(CO)3 cluster, there are three inequivalent Ru+3.33+ sites. In the first Ru+3.33+ site, Ru+3.33+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three C+0.67+ and two H1+ atoms. There is one shorter (1.90 Å) and two longer (1.91 Å) Ru–C bond length. There is one shorter (1.79 Å) and one longer (1.83 Å) Ru–H bond length. In the second Ru+3.33+ site, Ru+3.33+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three C+0.67+ and two H1+ atoms. All Ru–C bond lengths are 1.91 Å. Both Ru–H bond lengths are 1.80 Å. In the third Ru+3.33+ site, Ru+3.33+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three C+0.67+ and two H1+ atoms. All Ru–C bond lengths are 1.91 Å. There is one shorter (1.79 Å) and one longer (1.80 Å) Ru–H bond length. There are nine inequivalent C+0.67+ sites. In the first C+0.67+ site, C+0.67+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ru+3.33+ and one O2- atom. The C–O bond length is 1.16 Å.

In the sixth C+0.67+ site, C+0.67+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ru+3.33+ and one O2- atom. The C–O bond length is 1.16 Å. In the seventh C+0.67+ site, C+0.67+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ru+3.33+ and one O2- atom. The C–O bond length is 1.16 Å. In the eighth C+0.67+ site, C+0.67+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ru+3.33+ and one O2- atom. The C–O bond length is 1.16 Å. In the ninth C+0.67+ site, C+0.67+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ru+3.33+ and one O2- atom. The C–O bond length is 1.16 Å. There are three inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a water-like geometry to two Ru+3.33+ atoms. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a water-like geometry to two Ru+3.33+ atoms. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a water-like geometry to two Ru+3.33+ atoms. There are nine inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+0.67+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+0.67+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+0.67+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+0.67+ 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.
