Materials Data on Al3P3C4NO13 by Materials Project

Abstract

C4NAl3P3O13 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of two C4N ribbons oriented in the (1, 0, 1) direction and one Al3P3O13 framework. In each C4N ribbon, there are four inequivalent C+1.25+ sites. In the first C+1.25+ site, C+1.25+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two C+1.25+ atoms. There is one shorter (1.24 Å) and one longer (1.31 Å) C–C bond length. In the second C+1.25+ site, C+1.25+ is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one C+1.25+ and one N3- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.27 Å. In the third C+1.25+ site, C+1.25+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two C+1.25+ atoms. There is one shorter (1.26 Å) and one longer (1.29 Å) C–C bond length. In the fourth C+1.25+ site, C+1.25+ is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one C+1.25+ and one N3- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.22 Å. N3- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two C+1.25+ atoms. In the Al3P3O13 framework, there are three inequivalent Al3+ sites. In the first Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form AlO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra and a cornercorner with one AlO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.81–1.88 Å. In the second Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form AlO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra. There is three shorter (1.76 Å) and one longer (1.77 Å) Al–O bond length. In the third Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form AlO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra and a cornercorner with one AlO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.81–1.88 Å. There are three inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one AlO4 tetrahedra and corners with three AlO5 trigonal bipyramids. There is two shorter (1.53 Å) and two longer (1.55 Å) P–O bond length. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one AlO4 tetrahedra and corners with three AlO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.53–1.56 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent AlO4 tetrahedra and corners with two AlO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.53–1.56 Å. There are thirteen inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two Al3+ atoms. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the thirteenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ 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.
