Cogeneration of power-and-water is one the potential solutions for ever-rising energy and freshwater demand. These systems have shown superior thermodynamic economic performance compared to their standalone counterparts because processes synergy shared utilities resources. The current study investigates a multi-effect distillation system operated on bleed-out steam from last stages low-pressure...

This research presents the energy, exergy, economic, and environmental assessment, multi-objective optimization of a flash-binary geothermal CCHP cycle. A sensitivity analysis production well inlet temperature cooling to power flow ratio on exergetic, parameters was conducted. Furthermore, effects inflation rate plant working hours economic were investigated. Results showed that increasing harm...

Abstract This article is based on the conceptual-thermodynamic design and exergoeconomic investigation of a new poly-generation system driven by biomass fuel (i.e. wood). In proposed energy system, Rankine power process, gasification desalination process multi-effect desalination, MED) water electrolyzer solid oxide cell, SOEC) are installed in hybrid form. Electric energy, fresh hydrogen gas u...

An economic assessment of different geothermal power cycle configurations to generate cost models is conducted in this study. The thermodynamic and exergoeconomic modeling the cycles performed MATLAB coupled Refprop. were derived based on robust multivariable regression minimize residuals by using genetic algorithm. cross-validation approach applied determine a dataset examine model training ph...
