Abstract

Industrial symbiosis (IS) is known as an effective strategy to reduce resource consumption. Recently, the utilization of efficient energy conversion technologies in symbiotic relations has been suggested to enhance the flow exchange efficiency and economic effectiveness of energy-based industrial symbiosis schemes. In this work, the possibility of improving industrial symbiosis between agricultural greenhouses and waste heat sources in industries is investigated by utilizing the organic Rankine cycle (ORC) in different configurations. For this aim, a modelling tool is developed to analyse the thermo-economic justification of energy-based industrial symbiosis and estimate the possibility of simultaneous waste heat utilization for power generation and greenhouse heating. The results show that the selection of working fluid, capacity and configuration has a significant effect on the successful implementation of ORC technology and can reduce the payback period time to less than 5 years for the proposed case study. However, results indicate that even using an optimized ORC system is not always accompanied by improving the economic effectiveness and justification of IS establishment.

有机朗肯循环系统设计对基于能源的农工共生的影响

众所周知，工业共生（IS）是减少资源消耗的有效战略。最近，有人建议在共生关系中利用高效能源转换技术，以提高基于能源的工业共生计划的流量交换效率和经济效益。在这项工作中，通过利用不同配置的有机朗肯循环（ORC），研究了改善农业温室与工业废热源之间的工业共生关系的可能性。为此，开发了一个建模工具，用于分析基于能源的工业共生的热经济理由，并估算同时利用废热发电和温室供暖的可能性。结果表明，工作流体、容量和配置的选择对 ORC 技术的成功实施有重大影响，并可将拟议案例研究的投资回收期缩短至 5 年以内。然而，研究结果表明，即使使用优化的 ORC 系统，也不一定能提高经济效益并证明建立基础设施服务的合理性。
