Abstract

(InH3(SO4)2)2N2H2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1 space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of four ammonia molecules; four hydrogen molecules; and one InH3(SO4)2 ribbon oriented in the (0, 1, 0) direction. In the InH3(SO4)2 ribbon, there are two inequivalent In3+ sites. In the first In3+ site, In3+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one H1+ and four O2- atoms. The In–H bond length is 1.69 Å. There are a spread of In–O bond distances ranging from 2.16–2.43 Å. In the second In3+ site, In3+ is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one H1+ and three O2- atoms. The In–H bond length is 1.68 Å. There are a spread of In–O bond distances ranging from 2.09–2.32 Å. There are six inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to 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 In3+ atom. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. In the fifth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the sixth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one In3+ atom. There are four inequivalent S2+ sites. In the first S2+ site, S2+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.46–1.53 Å. In the second S2+ site, S2+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.45–1.60 Å. In the third S2+ site, S2+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.43–1.60 Å. In the fourth S2+ site, S2+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.43–1.59 Å. There are sixteen inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S2+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one In3+ and one S2+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one In3+ and one S2+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one In3+ and one S2+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S2+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a water-like geometry to one H1+ and one S2+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one In3+ and one S2+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a water-like geometry to one H1+ and one S2+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S2+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S2+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one In3+ and one S2+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one H1+ and one S2+ atom. In the thirteenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one In3+ and one S2+ atom. In the fourteenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a water-like geometry to one H1+ and one S2+ 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.
