Performance modelling of a carbon dioxide removal system for power plants
TL;DR: In this paper, a carbon dioxide removal and liquefaction system, which separates carbon dioxide from the flue gases of conventional power plants, was modelled and the effect of the main parameters on the absorption and stripping columns was presented, with the main constraints set for the model are a capture efficiency of 90% and the use of an aqueous solution with a maximum 30% amine content by weight.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solar-powered cooling systems: Technical and economic analysis on industrial refrigeration and air-conditioning applications
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the technical and economic feasibility of solar absorption cooling systems, designed for two different application fields: industrial refrigeration and air conditioning, by considering the refrigeration requirements of a company, which works in meat manufacturing, and the heating and cooling demands of a hotel located in a tourist town in Italy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative analysis of concentrating solar power and photovoltaic technologies: Technical and environmental evaluations
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparative analysis of the environmental impact derived from the processes of electricity generation during the whole life cycle of the two hypothetical power plants was carried out to carry out comparative technical evaluations on the amount of electricity produced by two hypothetical plants, located on the same site, for which a preliminary design was made.
Journal ArticleDOI
Opportunities of power-to-gas technology in different energy systems architectures
TL;DR: The role of the power-to-gas system in different energy system architectures is reviewed and different assessment such as techno-economic, Life Cycle Assessment and Multi-criteria decision analysis for power- to-gas were revised.
Journal ArticleDOI
Techno-economic comparison of green ammonia production processes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the feasibility of two green ammonia production processes and compared with the state-of-the-art methane-to-ammonia process, considering system-level heat integration and optimal placement of steam cycles for heat recovery.
