Multi-Objective Analysis of a CHP System Using Natural Gas and Biogas on the Prime Mover
With the aim of reducing operational costs and gas emissions in a Combined Heat and Power System (CHP), a type of biofuel is proposed as a product of a process using a biomass resource to replace other types of fossil fuels, and to be able to cover the average annual scale of power demand of 24 MWh/...
