Materials Data on Sr3MnRuO7 by Materials Project

Abstract

Sr3MnRuO7 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4mm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Sr2+ sites. In the first Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.45–2.80 Å. In the second Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.53–2.81 Å. In the third Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent MnO6 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent RuO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.69–2.91 Å. Mn2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one RuO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent MnO6 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–5°. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.04 Å. Ru6+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form RuO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one MnO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent RuO6 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°. There are a spread of Ru–O bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.02 Å. There are five inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to five Sr2+ and one Mn2+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to five Sr2+ and one Ru6+ atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OSr5Ru octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 8–49°. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Sr2+ and two equivalent Mn2+ atoms to form distorted OSr4Mn2 octahedra that share corners with four OSr5Ru octahedra, edges with two equivalent OSr4Mn2 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent OSr4Mn2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 5–49°. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four Sr2+ and two equivalent Ru6+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent Sr2+, one Mn2+, and one Ru6+ 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.
