This work aims to design and dynamically simulate a polygeneration system that integrates solar-assisted desiccant cooling for residential applications as an alternative vapor compression systems. The overall plant layout supplies electricity, space heating cooling, domestic hot water, freshwater single-family townhouse located in the city of Almería Spain. leading technologies used are photovo...

This work addresses the polygeneration concept integrating concentrating solar power (CSP) with an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) to produce electricity and drinking water by hybrid desalination process combining reverse osmosis (RO) low-temperature multi-effect distillation (LTMED). Experiments carried out on a bench scale RO pilot led determine optimal operating parameters as well options mitiga...

Efficient and flexible operation is essential for competitiveness in the energy market. However, CO2 emissions of conventional power plants have become an increasingly significant environmental dilemma. In this study, optimization a steam process IGCC was carried out, which improved overall performance plant. CCPP with subcritical HRSG modelled using EBSILON Professional. The numerical results ...

Abstract Renewable energy polygeneration systems are a viable alternative to fossil-fuel based systems, but storage solutions may be necessary when aiming for high sustainability and autonomy. As each technology has different strengths weaknesses, combinations of various lead better techno-economic performance than singular approaches. To this purpose, an optimization model including novel disp...
