Abstract

Bi6(SeO3)3O5Br2 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of four hydrobromic acid molecules and one Bi6Se3O14 framework. In the Bi6Se3O14 framework, there are six inequivalent Bi3+ sites. In the first Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Bi–O bond distances ranging from 2.22–3.09 Å. In the second Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Bi–O bond distances ranging from 2.22–2.84 Å. In the third Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Bi–O bond distances ranging from 2.21–3.12 Å. In the fourth Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Bi–O bond distances ranging from 2.24–3.08 Å. In the fifth Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded in a distorted pentagonal planar geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Bi–O bond distances ranging from 2.24–2.47 Å. In the sixth Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Bi–O bond distances ranging from 2.17–2.95 Å. There are three inequivalent Se sites. In the first Se site, Se is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Se–O bond distances ranging from 1.72–1.77 Å. In the second Se site, Se is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.73 Å) and two longer (1.74 Å) Se–O bond length. In the third Se site, Se is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.73 Å) and one longer (1.76 Å) Se–O bond length. There are fourteen inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Bi3+ and one Se atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to four Bi3+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to four Bi3+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Bi3+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to four Bi3+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three Bi3+ and one Se atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three Bi3+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to three Bi3+ and one Se atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three Bi3+ and one Se atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three Bi3+ and one Se atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two Bi3+ and one Se atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three Bi3+ and one Se atom. In the thirteenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Bi3+ and one Se atom. In the fourteenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Bi3+ 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.
