Materials Data on TmSe2NO11 by Materials Project

Abstract

TmNSe2O9O2 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two hydrogen peroxide molecules and one TmNSe2O9 sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In the TmNSe2O9 sheet, Tm is bonded to six O atoms to form TmO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent SeO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Tm–O bond distances ranging from 2.17–2.27 Å. N is bonded in a water-like geometry to two O atoms. There is one shorter (1.17 Å) and one longer (1.56 Å) N–O bond length. There are two inequivalent Se sites. In the first Se site, Se is bonded to four O atoms to form SeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent TmO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 35–57°. There are a spread of Se–O bond distances ranging from 1.67–1.99 Å. In the second Se site, Se is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three O atoms. There is two shorter (1.69 Å) and one longer (1.87 Å) Se–O bond length. There are nine inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Tm and one Se atom. In the second O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N atom. In the third O site, O is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Se and one O atom. The O–O bond length is 1.36 Å. In the fourth O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Tm and one O atom. In the fifth O site, O is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Tm and one Se atom. In the sixth O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Tm and one Se atom. In the seventh O site, O is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Tm and one Se atom. In the eighth O site, O is bonded in a water-like geometry to one N and one Se atom. In the ninth O site, O is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Tm and one Se 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.
