Abstract

Rb2FeC5H2(N3O)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Rb1+ sites. In the first Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to five N3- and one O2- atom. There are a spread of Rb–N bond distances ranging from 3.04–3.26 Å. The Rb–O bond length is 2.90 Å. In the second Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six N3-, one H1+, and one O2- atom. There are a spread of Rb–N bond distances ranging from 3.00–3.42 Å. The Rb–H bond length is 3.03 Å. The Rb–O bond length is 2.93 Å. Fe2+ is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to five C+3.20+ and one N3- atom. There is three shorter (1.93 Å) and two longer (1.94 Å) Fe–C bond length. The Fe–N bond length is 1.66 Å. There are five inequivalent C+3.20+ sites. In the first C+3.20+ site, C+3.20+ is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Fe2+ and one N3- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.17 Å. In the second C+3.20+ site, C+3.20+ is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Fe2+ and one N3- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.17 Å. In the third C+3.20+ site, C+3.20+ is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Fe2+ and one N3- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.17 Å. In the fourth C+3.20+ site, C+3.20+ is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Fe2+ and one N3- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.18 Å. In the fifth C+3.20+ site, C+3.20+ is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Fe2+ and one N3- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.18 Å. There are six inequivalent N3- sites. In the first N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Rb1+ and one C+3.20+ atom. In the second N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two Rb1+ and one C+3.20+ atom. In the third N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three Rb1+ and one C+3.20+ atom. In the fourth N3- site, N3- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Fe2+ and one O2- atom.

In the sixth N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ and one C+3.20+ atom. There are two inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Rb1+ and one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two Rb1+ and two 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.
