Materials Data on Sr3La2Fe4CoO15 by Materials Project

Abstract

Sr3La2Fe4CoO15 is (Cubic) Perovskite-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Sr sites. In the first Sr site, Sr is bonded to twelve O atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with three equivalent LaO12 cuboctahedra, corners with nine SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with three equivalent SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with three equivalent LaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with three equivalent CoO6 octahedra, and faces with five FeO6 octahedra. There are six shorter (2.76 Å) and six longer (2.79 Å) Sr–O bond lengths. In the second Sr site, Sr is bonded to twelve O atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent LaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight FeO6 octahedra. All Sr–O bond lengths are 2.76 Å. La is bonded to twelve O atoms to form LaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with three equivalent SrO12 cuboctahedra, corners with nine equivalent LaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with six SrO12 cuboctahedra, a faceface with one CoO6 octahedra, and faces with seven FeO6 octahedra. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.64–2.82 Å. There are two inequivalent Fe sites. In the first Fe site, Fe is bonded to six O atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent FeO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent CoO6 octahedra, faces with three equivalent LaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with five SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–5°. There is three shorter (1.96 Å) and three longer (1.98 Å) Fe–O bond length. In the second Fe site, Fe is bonded to six O atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six FeO6 octahedra, faces with four SrO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with four equivalent LaO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°. All Fe–O bond lengths are 1.95 Å. Co is bonded to six equivalent O atoms to form CoO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent FeO6 octahedra, faces with two equivalent LaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with six equivalent SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 5°. All Co–O bond lengths are 1.92 Å. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two equivalent Sr, two equivalent La, and two equivalent Fe atoms. In the second O site, O is bonded to three equivalent Sr, one La, one Fe, and one Co atom to form a mixture of distorted face, edge, and corner-sharing OSr3LaFeCo octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–61°. In the third O site, O is bonded to two Sr, two equivalent La, and two Fe atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, edge, and corner-sharing OSr2La2Fe2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–61°.

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.
