Abstract

Sr4Fe2CoNiO12 is (Cubic) Perovskite-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Sr sites. In the first Sr site, Sr is bonded to twelve O atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with six SrO12 cuboctahedra, a faceface with one NiO6 octahedra, faces with three equivalent CoO6 octahedra, and faces with four FeO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.73–2.78 Å. In the second Sr site, Sr is bonded to twelve O atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with six SrO12 cuboctahedra, a faceface with one CoO6 octahedra, a faceface with one NiO6 octahedra, and faces with six FeO6 octahedra. There are nine shorter (2.76 Å) and three longer (2.77 Å) Sr–O bond lengths. In the third Sr site, Sr is bonded to twelve O atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with six SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with two FeO6 octahedra, faces with three equivalent CoO6 octahedra, and faces with three equivalent NiO6 octahedra. There are nine shorter (2.76 Å) and three longer (2.77 Å) Sr–O bond lengths. In the fourth Sr site, Sr is bonded to twelve O atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with six SrO12 cuboctahedra, a faceface with one CoO6 octahedra, faces with three equivalent NiO6 octahedra, and faces with four FeO6 octahedra. There are nine shorter (2.76 Å) and three longer (2.79 Å) Sr–O bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Fe sites. In the first Fe site, Fe is bonded to six O atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent FeO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent NiO6 octahedra, and faces with eight SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°. There is three shorter (1.91 Å) and three longer (1.96 Å) Fe–O bond length. In the second Fe site, Fe is bonded to six O atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent FeO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent CoO6 octahedra, and faces with eight SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 1°. There is three shorter (1.96 Å) and three longer (1.99 Å) Fe–O bond length. Co is bonded to six O atoms to form CoO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent FeO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent NiO6 octahedra, and faces with eight SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–2°. There is three shorter (1.87 Å) and three longer (1.93 Å) Co–O bond length. Ni is bonded to six O atoms to form NiO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent FeO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent CoO6 octahedra, and faces with eight SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–2°. There are three shorter (1.98 Å) and three longer (2.03 Å) Ni–O bond lengths. There are four inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded to four Sr and two Fe atoms to form distorted OSr4Fe2 octahedra that share corners with twenty-two OSr4Fe2 octahedra, edges with four OSr4FeNi octahedra, and faces with eight OSr4Fe2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–61°. In the second O site, O is bonded to four Sr, one Fe, and one Ni atom to form a mixture of distorted corner, edge, and face-sharing OSr4FeNi octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–61°. In the third O site, O is bonded to four Sr, one Fe, and one Co atom to form a mixture of distorted corner, edge, and face-sharing OSr4FeCo octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–61°. In the fourth O site, O is bonded to four Sr, one Co, and one Ni atom to form distorted OSr4CoNi octahedra that share corners with twenty-two OSr4Fe2 octahedra, edges with four OSr4FeNi octahedra, and faces with eight OSr4FeNi octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–61°.

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.
