Materials Data on CoAs2S4(O2F3)4 by Materials Project

Abstract

CoAs2S4(O2F3)4 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four CoAs2S4(O2F3)4 clusters. Co2+ is bonded to four O2- and two F1- atoms to form CoO4F2 octahedra that share corners with two AsF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 25–31°. There are a spread of Co–O bond distances ranging from 2.06–2.10 Å. There are one shorter (2.04 Å) and one longer (2.06 Å) Co–F bond lengths. There are two inequivalent As5+ sites. In the first As5+ site, As5+ is bonded to six F1- atoms to form AsF6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one CoO4F2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 31°. There are a spread of As–F bond distances ranging from 1.75–1.85 Å. In the second As5+ site, As5+ is bonded to six F1- atoms to form AsF6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one CoO4F2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 25°. There are a spread of As–F bond distances ranging from 1.76–1.86 Å. There are four inequivalent S4+ sites. In the first S4+ site, S4+ is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.44 Å) and one longer (1.46 Å) S–O bond length. In the second S4+ site, S4+ is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.44 Å) and one longer (1.46 Å) S–O bond length. In the third S4+ site, S4+ is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.44 Å) and one longer (1.47 Å) S–O bond length. In the fourth S4+ site, S4+ is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.44 Å) and one longer (1.46 Å) S–O bond length. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Co2+ and one S4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one S4+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S4+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one S4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S4+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one S4+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S4+ atom. There are twelve inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one As5+ atom. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As5+ atom. In the third F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As5+ atom. In the fourth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As5+ atom. In the fifth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As5+ atom. In the sixth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As5+ atom. In the seventh F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As5+ atom. In the eighth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one As5+ atom. In the ninth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As5+ atom. In the tenth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As5+ atom. In the eleventh F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As5+ atom. In the twelfth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As5+ 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.
