Materials Data on Ba10Re3O22 by Materials Project

Abstract

Ba10Re3O22 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are five inequivalent Ba sites. In the first Ba site, Ba is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten O atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.74–3.10 Å. In the second Ba site, Ba is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten O atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.74–2.93 Å. In the third Ba site, Ba is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to eleven O atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.74–3.38 Å. In the fourth Ba site, Ba is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to eight O atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.52–3.17 Å. In the fifth Ba site, Ba is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.83–3.22 Å. There are two inequivalent Re sites. In the first Re site, Re is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six O atoms. There is two shorter (1.90 Å) and four longer (1.91 Å) Re–O bond length. In the second Re site, Re is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six O atoms. There are a spread of Re–O bond distances ranging from 1.87–1.94 Å. There are eight inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Ba and one Re atom. In the second O site, O is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to four Ba and one Re atom. In the third O site, O is bonded to four Ba and one Re atom to form distorted OBa4Re trigonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent OBa4Re square pyramids, corners with two equivalent OBa4 tetrahedra, corners with three equivalent OBa4Re trigonal bipyramids, and edges with two equivalent OBa6 octahedra. In the fourth O site, O is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to five Ba and one Re atom. In the fifth O site, O is bonded to six Ba atoms to form OBa6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent OBa6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent OBa4Re square pyramids, an edgeedge with one OBa6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent OBa4Re square pyramids, edges with four equivalent OBa4 tetrahedra, and edges with two equivalent OBa4Re trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 9°. In the sixth O site, O is bonded to four Ba atoms to form distorted OBa4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent OBa4Re square pyramids, corners with two equivalent OBa4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent OBa4Re trigonal bipyramids, edges with four equivalent OBa6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one OBa4 tetrahedra. In the seventh O site, O is bonded to four Ba and one Re atom to form distorted OBa4Re square pyramids that share corners with two equivalent OBa6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent OBa4Re square pyramids, corners with two equivalent OBa4 tetrahedra, a cornercorner with one OBa4Re trigonal bipyramid, an edgeedge with one OBa6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent OBa4Re square pyramids, and a faceface with one OBa4Re square pyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 29–47°. In the eighth O site, O is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Ba and one Re 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.
