Heat recovery plays an important role in increasing the efficiency of renewable energy facilities like biomass furnaces, solar power plants or biofuel combustion engines. As the overall efficiency of the rigs can be increased by recovering the energy contained in the waste heat. It can be used, for example, via a steam turbine process, whereby the...

The focus of this work is to develop a flexible ORC design procedure that compares thermo-economic performances of simple and recuperative ORCs for both subcritical and supercritical cycles through a multi-objective optimization that relates the economic parameters to the network output for waste heat-to-power conversion of exhaust gases. Few resea...

GreenFire Energy Inc. has been developing its Steam and Two-Phase GreenLoop (S2PGL) technology to apply closed-loop geothermal technology in steam and high enthalpy two-phase (water and steam) dominated reservoirs for several years now. In S2PGL, a downbore tube-in-tube (co-axial) heat exchanger circulates large volumes of a variety of working flui...

Aiming to reduce the use of conventional energy sources, alternative methods should be applied in order to cover society’s needs. In this context, in the present study, the operation of a transcritical CO2 commercial refrigeration unit is investigated, coupled with two power production cycles. The first cycle is a supercritical CO2 Brayton system t...
