Chapter 5 Economic analysis hypothesised to increase costs of above reported ambient pressure gasifiers by 30%. Resulting values are thus: 4290 €/kWel at 100 kWel, 2340 €/kWel at 1 MWel and 1690 €/kWel at 5 MWel. These costs are then added to the gas turbines ones, that are respectively 1250 €/kWel, 1000 €/kWel and 750 €/kWel, giving the final values reported in the table. In externally fired gas turbines with a ceramic/high temperature heat exchanger (GT EXT CER) the turbine and the heat exchanger itself represent the two main cost factors. Concerning the former one, the values reported few lines above have been naturally used. Regarding the latter one, the evaluation has been based on several references. In [3.5] a cost of 750 €/m2 is proposed (obviously referring to the exchanger surface). Indeed, this value is referred to a maximum allowable temperature of 1000°C, which, in the present work, has been found on the two smallest sizes (see Section 4.2.3). On the contrary, 1100°C are reached at the 5 MWel scale: however the referred value has been considered valid as well. On the other hand, in [2.14] costs of high temperature heat exchangers are estimated to be three fold the conventional ones (e.g. 304L). For the latter, two relations may be adopted, both expressed in €/m2 (A is the exchanger area, in m2): • 475 · A0.9 [5.1] • 10,000 + 300 · A0.95 [5.2] Indeed, the second relation would be expressed in British pounds per area unit, but, considering the exchange rate, it can be suitably hypothesised to use it in terms of €/m2. However it is easy to verify that the two formulas provide analogous results, apart from the initial gap. From an operating point of view, firstly the heat exchanger surface was obtained1, then the overall cost of the device was calculated by means of the three above mentioned relations and afterwards the results were converted in €/kWel, being finally averaged. Reference value was then chosen rounding the latter number. Results for the three scales are listed in Table 5.2. 1 ThermoflexTM provides this result in terms of UA, i.e. the product of overall heat transfer coefficient and the actual surface. Obviously A is easily obtained dividing that product by U, for which a value of 38 W/(m2·K) has been used [3.5]. 173
