Effect of Thermodynamic Restriction on Energy Cost Optimization of RO Membrane Water Desalination
Advances in highly permeable reverse osmosis (RO) membranes have enabled desalting operations, in which it is practically feasible for the applied pressure to approach the osmotic pressure of the exit brine stream. However, energy cost remains a major contributor to the total cost of water produced by RO membrane desalination. Reduction of the overall cost of water production represents a major...
متن کاملExergetic, Exergoeconomic and Exergoenvironmental Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm Optimization of Qeshm Power and Water Cogeneration Plant
In this study, optimization of Qeshm power and water desalting cogeneration plant has been investigated. The objective functions are related to maximizing exergetic efficiency and minimization of exergoeconomic and exergoenvironmental parameters. Also, the integration of RO desalination with the existing plant has been evaluated based on these analyses. This plant includes two MAPNA 25 MW gas t...
متن کاملThermodynamic Analysis of Light Olefins Production via Cracking of n-Hexane Using Gibbs Energy Minimization Approach and Analysis of Overall Reactions
Thermodynamic analysis of the cracking of hexane has been conducted by the Gibbs free energy minimization method and second law analysis of overall reactions. By-products have been divided into three groups of methane, alkynes and aromatics and their possible production paths have been discussed. Effect of operating conditions such as temperature and steam-to-hexane ratio on the cracking perfor...
متن کاملDesign and optimization of an energy hub based on combined cycle power plant to improve economic and exergy objectives
This paper uses the energy hub concept to meet the water, heat and electricity demand of a power plant in the Qeshm island in south of Iran. Given the power plant’s high potential for waste heat recovery and some scenarios were considered using the hub energy concept based on energy, exergy, environmental and economic analyzes in terms of meeting the demands of the hub and purchasing/selling en...
متن کاملEnergy cost minimization in an electric vehicle solar charging station via dynamic programming
Environmental crisis and shortage of fossil fuels make Electric Vehicles (EVs) alternatives for conventional vehicles. With growing numbers of EVs, the coordinated charging is necessary to prevent problems such as large peaks and power losses for grid and to minimize charging costs of EVs for EV owners. Therefore, this paper proposes an optimal charging schedule based on Dynamic Programming (DP...
