Abstract

In this article, a hybrid cogeneration scheme based on a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC)—gas turbine system and utilizing syngas derived from municipal solid wastes (MSW)—has been investigated thermodynamically. Steam gasification of municipal solid wastes produces hydrogen-rich gas that is consumed by the SOFC stack as fuel. An externally fired air turbine (EFAT) draws the heat of combustion of the SOFC exhaust via a heat exchanger, while the clean turbine exhaust air itself is fed to the cathode of the SOFC. A bottoming heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) further recovers waste heat to produce process steam required for the gasifier as well as for process heater. Results of the study for base case parameters show that the integrated system can have a maximum electrical efficiency of about 50%, while substantial fuel saving (more than 51% when compared with separate power and steam plants) because of cogeneration of steam required for gasification system.
