ABSTRACT
Biogas, a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, addresses issues of non-renewability and accessibility. Its structural similarity to fossil fuels makes it a potent option for energy systems. With this in mind, this paper discusses a novel trigeneration system that utilizes biogas and Liquefied natural gas cooling to produce methanol, electricity, cold water, hot water, oxygen, and natural gas. The system integrates various components such as a biogas burner, Kalina cycle, organic Rankine cycle, liquefied natural gas liquid gasification cycle, proton exchange membrane electrolyzer, and methanol synthesis unit. Simulation via Aspen HYSYS software includes an analysis of energy, exergy, economic, and environmental aspects. Efficiency assessment in single generation, cogeneration, trigeneration, and chemical trigeneration modes concludes chemical trigeneration as most efficient, with the proton exchange membrane electrolyzer being the most efficient subsystem. Key variables like Kalina cycle evaporator temperature, gas flow rate to the methanol reactor, and organic Rankine cycle working fluid pressure are assessed. Predictions on thermodynamic, environmental, and economic behaviors, along with their fluctuations, are made. Using a thermoeconomic approach, the economic analysis determines an exergy unit cost of 59.79 $/GJ and a total cost rate of 2764 $/h. Overall, this work presents a novel and efficient chemical trigeneration system that utilizes biogas and LNG cooling to produce multiple products.
