Materials Data on CdRe2C2(N2O5)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

Re2CdC2(N2O5)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of two Re2CdC2(N2O5)2 ribbons oriented in the (1, 0, 0) direction. there are two inequivalent Re7+ sites. In the first Re7+ site, Re7+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form ReO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent CdO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 33–49°. There are a spread of Re–O bond distances ranging from 1.73–1.78 Å. In the second Re7+ site, Re7+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form ReO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent CdO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 26–40°. There are a spread of Re–O bond distances ranging from 1.73–1.78 Å. Cd2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CdO6 octahedra that share corners with four ReO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cd–O bond distances ranging from 2.23–2.46 Å. There are two inequivalent C4+ sites. In the first C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two N1- and one O2- atom. Both C–N bond lengths are 1.38 Å. The C–O bond length is 1.21 Å. In the second C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two N1- and one O2- atom. Both C–N bond lengths are 1.38 Å. The C–O bond length is 1.21 Å. There are four inequivalent N1- sites. In the first N1- site, N1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one C4+ atom. In the second N1- site, N1- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one C4+ and one N1- atom. The N–N bond length is 1.33 Å. In the third N1- site, N1- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one C4+ atom. In the fourth N1- site, N1- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one C4+ and one N1- atom. There are ten inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Re7+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Re7+ and one Cd2+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Re7+ and one Cd2+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Re7+ and one Cd2+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cd2+ and one C4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Re7+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cd2+ and one C4+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Re7+ and one Cd2+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Re7+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Re7+ 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.
