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...

The worrying effects of climate change have led, in the last decades, to improvement innovative solutions for low greenhouse emission energy conversion, among which, is use micro-ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle) systems distributed generation, framework combined heat and power applications renewables exploitation. However, micro-ORCs environmental impact, due high GWP (global working potential) flui...

Converting waste heat into electricity has captured the interest of scientists for years because its enormous potential to improve energy efficiency and lessen environmental impacts. While there are numerous applications recover lost energy, they often not efficient or cheap enough make a real-world impact. The aim this study is develop recovery system recycling factory operating in Hatay, Turk...

Abstract Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) and heat pump (HP) are two well-established technologies for industrial waste recovery. Given the similarity between ORC HP configurations, a system that can switch modes with minimal modification is feasible. The reversible according to requirement of industry exploit in lower temperature bands operating as high-temperature (HTHP) provide useful process or ...

This study aimed to investigate the potential of supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2), organic Rankine cycle (ORC), and thermoelectric generator (TEG) systems for application in automotive exhaust waste heat recovery (WHR) applications. More specifically, this paper focuses on heavy-duty diesel engines applications such as marine, trucks, locomotives. The results simulations show that sCO2 are c...

The organic Rankine cycle (ORC) has been widely studied to recover waste heat from internal combustion engines in commercial on-road vehicles. To achieve a cost-effective ORC, trade-off between factors such as costs, power outputs, back pressure, and weight needs be carefully worked out. However, the is still huge challenge engine recovery. In this study, thermoeconomic optimization study of ve...

The thermodynamic and economic suitability of four geothermal power systems is analyzed. When the heat source temperature ranges from 100-150?C, performance indicators capacity per unit geo-fluid, exergy efficiency, payback period, net present value internal rate return for types system are calculated. results show that when increases geo-fluid single flash, organic rankine cycle (ORC), double ...

Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems are a readily available technology to convert thermal energy from renewable- and waste heat sources into electricity. However, their performance is relatively low due the temperature of sources, but more importantly, efficiency employed expander. Designing turboexpander exceptionally challenging, because flow field highly supersonic unsteady, since expansion ...

Hybrid solar and geothermal utilisation is a promising option for effective exploitation of renewable energy sources. Concentrated power (CSP) systems with preheating are acknowledged as an attractive solution, supercritical CO2 (SCO2) cycle adopted generation thanks to the favourable properties offered by working fluid. In order further improve overall performance such systems, organic Rankine...
