Materials Data on Dy6N8O33 by Materials Project

Abstract

Dy6N8O33 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of one Dy6N8O33 ribbon oriented in the (1, 0, 0) direction. there are three inequivalent Dy sites. In the first Dy site, Dy is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O atoms. There are a spread of Dy–O bond distances ranging from 2.23–2.57 Å. In the second Dy site, Dy is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to eight O atoms. There are a spread of Dy–O bond distances ranging from 2.23–3.18 Å. In the third Dy site, Dy is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O atoms. There are a spread of Dy–O bond distances ranging from 2.23–2.55 Å. There are four inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O atoms. There is two shorter (1.25 Å) and one longer (1.26 Å) N–O bond length. In the second N site, N is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O atoms. There is one shorter (1.25 Å) and two longer (1.28 Å) N–O bond length. In the third N site, N is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O atoms. There is one shorter (1.23 Å) and two longer (1.28 Å) N–O bond length. In the fourth N site, N is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O atoms. There are a spread of N–O bond distances ranging from 1.23–1.29 Å. There are seventeen inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Dy atoms. In the second O site, O is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Dy and one N atom. In the third O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N atom. In the fourth O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N atom. In the fifth O site, O is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Dy atoms. In the sixth O site, O is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Dy atoms. In the seventh O site, O is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Dy and one N atom. In the eighth O site, O is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to one Dy and one N atom. In the ninth O site, O is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Dy atoms. In the tenth O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N atom. In the eleventh O site, O is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Dy and one N atom. In the twelfth O site, O is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six Dy atoms. In the thirteenth O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Dy and one N atom. In the fourteenth O site, O is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to one Dy and one N atom. In the fifteenth O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N atom. In the sixteenth O site, O is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Dy and one N atom. In the seventeenth O site, O is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Dy and one N 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.
