MACROJOURNALS Bahram Saadatfar, Reza Fakhrai and Torsten Fransson, JMES Vol 2 Issue 1 2014 The Journal of MacroTrends in Energy and Sustainability Thermodynamic Vapor Cycles for Converting Low- to Medium-grade Heat to Power: A State-of-the- art Review and Future Research Pathways Bahram Saadatfar, Reza Fakhrai, Torsten Fransson Department of Energy Technology, Royal Institute of Technology KTH, Stockholm, Sweden Abstract The moderate temperature of renewable energy sources and vast amounts of industrial waste heat demands implementing other thermodynamic heat to power cycles than the conventional power cycle. Various thermodynamic cycles for converting low-grade heat into power have been developed, in which the major ones are: zeotropic vapor cycle, organic Rankine cycle, Trilateral Flash cycle, supercritical Rankine cycle. This study serves the state-of-the-art review of thermodynamic vapor cycles for converting the low-grade heat into electrical power and present recommendations for future research and development to advance the conversion of low- to medium-grade heat to power. Keywords: Thermodynamic vapor cycle, Low-grade heat, Heat to power 1. Introduction As more importance is focused on sourcing sustainable energy and increasing energy efficiency by industries, the amount of usage of low-grade heat will increase. Generating electricity from renewable energy sources is becoming an inevitable necessity [1]. Thermoelectric devices and heat engines are two methods for converting thermal energy to electricity [2]. Thermoelectric devices are small with low environmental impact; however, they have lower efficiency and also more costly in comparison with heat engines [3]. Thermoelectrics are more limited to very special applications such as vehicle heat recovery. Mechanical heat engines have been used for conversion of thermal energy to power since many decades. A heat engine is a device which converts the thermal energy into mechanical work. The 1

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
