SUMMARYIn this paper, various aspects of trigeneration power plants including advantages, challenges and criteria for high efficiency operation are discussed. In trigeneration systems, prime movers are treated to be the heart of the plant and thus an appropriate selection is crucial for successful operation. A comparative analysis of potential prime movers, together with a comprehensive literature review used in trigeneration and, their selection criteria are presented. A case study of a trigeneration plant based on solid oxide fuel cells and an organic Rankine cycle is examined using thermodynamic analysis. This thermodynamic analysis includes performance assessment of the system through energy and exergy efficiencies. An environmental impact assessment is also conducted based on CO 2 emissions as a measure. The present study reveals that compared to power cycle efficiency (considering net electrical efficiency), there is a minimum potential of 22% gain in efficiency when trigeneration is used. Also, it is shown that there is more than 200 kg MWh À1 reduction in CO 2 emissions when trigeneration is used compared to the case where a power cycle is only used.

“…The TG (also called combined cooling, heating and power, CCHP) which are based on combined heat and power (CHP) systems coupled to an absorption chiller can be recognized as one of the best technologies for recovering biomass effectively, and for purposes of heating, cooling and generating power. Previous studies have shown that the TG system is able to generate three useful energy forms with only a single fuel source [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. However, for decades, TG systems have only utilized in a small number of food manufacturing and retail facilities with limited fuel sources as Suamir and Tassou [22] performed evaluation of integrated TG and CO 2 refrigeration systems.…”

This study implies the significance of a trigeneration (TG) system, which converts a single fuel source into three useful energy products (i. e. power, heating, and cooling), and focuses on the simulation of a TG system with direct co-combustion of poultry wastes. The methodology is applied to a case study in northwest of Turkey to investigate how local poultry manure and environmental conditions can be effective in the production of energy. In addition, thermodynamic assessment of the system is performed, and the performance of the TG system is assessed by using energy, exergy, and parametric analysis methods. Poultry litter to coal ratio was 50% at the beginning, then poultry litter ratio in the mixture was increased to 90%, and this has led to less CO 2 emissions from the TG and combined heat and power systems co-firing with poultry litter. With rice husk however the consumptions of TG and combined heat and power increased from 6533-6624 tonne per year, and 6549-6640 tonne per year, respectively. As a result, co-combustion of poultry waste can be considered as the best environmentally-friendly remedy to dispose chicken farm wastes, while catering the energy demand of the facility.

-Trigeneration or Combined Cooling, Heat and Power (CCHP) which is based upon combined heat and power (CHP) systems coupled to an absorption chiller can be recognized as one of the best technologies recovering biomass effectively to heat, cooling and power. Co-gasification of the lignite and biomass can provide the possibility for safe and effective disposal of different waste types as well as for sustainable and environmentally-friendly production of energy. In this article, a trigeneration system based on an IC engine and gasifier reactor has been simulated and realized using Thermoflex simulation software. Performance results suggest that utilization of sustainably-grown biomass in a Tri-Generation Power Plant (TGPP) can be a possibility for providing cooling, heat and power demands with local renewable sources and reducing the environmental impacts of the energy conversion systems.
