Abstract:
The manufacturing industry must diverge from a ‘take, make and waste’ linear production paradigm towards more circular economies. Truly sustainable, circular economies are intrinsically tied to renewable resource flows, where vast quantities need to be available at a central point of consumption. Abundant, renewable carbon feedstocks are often structurally complex and recalcitrant, requiring costly pretreatment to harness their potential fully. As such, the heat integration of supercritical water gasification (SCWG) and aerobic gas fermentation unlocks the promise of renewable feedstocks such as lignin. This study models the technoeconomics and life cycle assessment (LCA) for the sustainable production of the commodity chemicals, isopropanol and acetone, from gasified Kraft black liquor. The investment case is underpinned by rigorous process modelling informed by published continuous gas fermentation experimental data. Time series analyses support the price forecasts for the solvent products. Furthermore, a Monte Carlo simulation frames an uncertain boundary for the technoeconomic model. The technoeconomic assessment (TEA) demonstrates that production of commodity chemicals priced at ~US$1000 per tonne is within reach of aerobic gas fermentation. In addition, owing to the sequestration of biogenic carbon into the solvent products, negative greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are achieved within a cradle-to-gate LCA framework. As such, the heat integrated aerobic gas fermentation platform has promise as a best-in-class technology for the production of a broad spectrum of renewable commodity chemicals.

Abstract:
Several algorithms have been developed for building-attached photovoltaic system (BAPV) planning in educational institute based on PV capacity. Fewer studies on optimization algorithms for BAPV system planing on campus have been reported which considers a technoeconomic assessment. Therefore, a well-known robust algorithm is used as an optimization technique of BAPV system and considers technoeconomic assessment on campus. This paper presents a combination of analytical hierarchy process (AHP) with fuzzy theory (fuzzy AHP) for selecting a suitable and optimal design of BAPV system on academic campus. The BAPV system design is based on roof area and load profile at the project site. Five BAPV systems have been designed using five different types of PV. The design was comprehensively assessed by experts through a questionnaire with pairwise comparison model. Fuzzy AHP used to consider the qualitative and quantitative assessments that can affect the selection process. The comprehensive assessment in criteria consists of sizing systems, technical, economic, and environmental perspectives as criteria. The perspective is divided into 13 subcriteria. The results show degree of importance from the criteria-based fuzzy AHP as follows: technical > economic > environment > sizing system. Based on the assessment of criteria and subcriteria, design with monocrystalline is most suitable and polycrystalline as the least suitable design for BAPV system connected to grid and battery energy storage system in case study.

Abstract:
Innovative technologies and sources of energy must be developed to replace fossil fuels and contribute to the reductions of emissions of greenhouse gases associated with their use. In this perspective, algal biofuels are generating substantial awareness in many countries. As of today, it has been shown that it is scientifically and technically possible to derive the desired energy products from algae in the laboratory. The question lies, however, in whether it is a technology that merits the support and development to overcome existing scalability challenges and make it economically feasible. In this context, the overall purpose of this study is to provide an integrated assessment of the potential of microalgae as a source to produce biofuels, while confronting it with competing emerging biofuel technologies. It is intended to provide a comprehensive state of technology summary for producing fuels from algal feedstocks and to draw some insights upon the feasibility and technoeconomic challenges associated with scaling up of processes.

Abstract:
This study investigates technoeconomic performance of standalone biorefinery concepts that utilize hybrid organic solvent and steam explosion pretreatment technique. The assessments were made based on a mathematical process model developed in UniSim Design software using inhouse experimental data. The work was motivated by successful experimental applications of the hybrid pretreatment technique on lignocellulosic feedstocks that demonstrated high fractionation efficiency into a cellulose-rich, a hemicellulose-rich and lignin streams. For the biorefinery concepts studied here, the targeted final products were ethanol, organosolv lignin and hemicellulose syrup. Minimum ethanol selling price (MESP) and Internal rate of return (IRR) were evaluated as economic indicators of the investigated biorefinery concepts. Depending on the configuration, and allocating all costs to ethanol, MESP in the range 0.53–0.95 €/L were required for the biorefinery concepts to break even. Under the assumed ethanol reference price of 0.55 €/L, the corresponding IRR were found to be in the range −1.75–10.7%. Hemicellulose degradation and high steam demand identified as major sources of inefficiencies for the process and economic performance, respectively. Sensitivity of MESP and IRR towards the most influential technical, economic and market parameters performed.

Abstract:
Power Internet of Things (abbreviated as PIoT) is the information infrastructure to provide ubiquitous perception ability for smart grid (abbreviated as SG). To better deploy and utilize PIoT, its perception ability must be comprehensively assessed in terms of technical performance and economic benefits. However, at present, there is no assessment framework for PIoT due to the high diversity and heterogeneousness of SG scenarios. Additionally, there is information overlap between metrics in the assessment framework. The assessment model which could remove redundant information between metrics and simplify the assessment framework is an urgent demand to improve the effectiveness and timeliness of assessment. Consequently, first, aiming at the power system requirements of complex and diverse, a general assessment framework is put forward to assess the ability of PIoT in terms of technology and economy. Next, the requirement characteristics of power distribution scenario (abbreviated as PDS) are precisely analyzed with active context-knowledge orchestration technology. The general assessment framework is instantiated to build an instantiation assessment scheme in PDS. Moreover, an assessment model is established based on the instantiation assessment scheme to assess the efficiency of PIoT in Beijing. Finally, the assessment model is further refined with the machine learning technology to improve the efficiency of assessment. This refinement model achieves the extraction of 4-dimensional metrics from 23-dimensional metrics for assessment and finally improves assessment efficiency by 82.6%.

Abstract:
The EIA projects that 60% of cumulative capacity additions in the U.S. by 2050 will be renewable electric generating technologies.1 The use of intermittent renewable energy in the U.S. electricity grid requires energy storage. NREL predicts that for a scenario in which 80% of electricity in the U.S. comes from renewable energy by 2050, 120 GW of energy storage would be needed,2 yet as of 2020, the U.S. has only 24 GW of storage capacity.3 Redox flow batteries (RFBs) are a useful technology for ensuring the smooth integration of renewable energy into the U.S. electricity grid because of their long lifecycles and discharge times. RFBs are currently too expensive for market deployment, however, with the all vanadium RFB (VRFB) costing double the DOE target.4,5 One way to improve the cost effectiveness of RFBs is to explore chemistries that increase the voltage window. The replacement of the VO2+/ VO2 + chemistry at the positive electrode of a VRFB with the Ce3+/Ce4+ chemistry would result in an increased theoretical voltage, but it is unclear how the kinetic, ohmic, and mass transport overvoltages would change. Additionally, studies of the environmental burdens of life cycle phases of Ce RFBs are limited. To advance the most cost effective and least environmentally harmful RFB, in this study, we develop a combined Technoeconomic Assessment-Life Cycle Assessment (TEA-LCA) model that is informed by our performance measurements to compare the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) and levelized greenhouse gas (LGHG) emissions of VRFBs and Ce-V RFBs. The TEA-LCA model allows the user to select from a list of positive and negative electrode redox chemistries, solvents, electrode materials, and electricity grid generation profiles to calculate the LCOE and LGHG emissions of the battery for the delivery of 1 kWh of energy. A solver function optimizes the current density that minimizes either LCOE or LGHGs. The TEA-LCA model uses a bottom-up approach, in which energy- and power-dependent capital costs and environmental burdens are calculated by converting the amount of material to a kWh basis. Cost estimates are sourced from vendors and GHG emissions are pulled from the GREET database and literature. The amount of active species required to deliver 1 kWh of electricity at a specified discharge time is calculated using the redox couple properties, including redox potential, exchange current density, and limiting currents. These performance parameters are based on measurements collected in lab. The use phase burdens are calculated using the roundtrip efficiency of the battery and the price and GHGs associated with the electricity grid generation mix. End-of-life costs consist of the economic and environmental burdens of recycling and disposing of the battery material and are collected from vendors and GREET. The TEA-LCA model answers important questions related to the optimal operating conditions of an RFB. In addition to comparing the economic and environmental performances of the VRFB and Ce-V RFB, it demonstrates how different electricity grid mixes influence total cost and emissions and highlights the difference in optimal operating current density if cost or GHG emissions are prioritized, e.g., lower current density results in fewer emissions but higher cost in carbon-intensive electricity grid profiles. Preliminary results using literature values show that the Ce-V RFB has an LCOE that is 45% lower than the VRFB LCOE, with capital costs dominating. We will present the finalized LCOE for the VRFB and Ce-V RFB, as well as LGHGs, as a function of discharge time and electricity grid mix. Sensitivity analyses of the input parameters found that for both RFBs, the discount rate, discharge faradaic efficiency, and lifetime of battery had the most influence on LCOE, with a 20% decrease in discharge faradaic efficiency resulting in a 16% increase in LCOE for the VRFB. The results of this TEA-LCA model show that the use of cerium is a viable option for reducing the cost of RFBs to advance their use in renewable energy storage grid applications. Additionally, this model is generalizable to other batteries and electrochemical systems, such as CO2 conversion. Thus, the development of this TEA-LCA model represents not only an advancement to the field of redox flow batteries but also the wider field of electrochemistry. U.S. EIA. Annual Energy Outlook.

Abstract:
A comparative optimization assessment is carried out in order to identify the competitiveness of an innovative modular air-cooled condenser (MACC) system in relation to conventional water- or air-cooled condensers. Specifically, the technoeconomic performance of the combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) technology, the parabolic trough concentrated solar power (CSP) technology, and the solar tower CSP technology are compared when all are integrated (a) with a MACC condenser of an optimum tube geometry and size, (b) with a conventional water-cooled condenser, and (c) with a conventional dry-cooled condenser. The comparison is performed across three different solar potential levels. The simulations are carried out using an optimization model based on the IPP v2.1 algorithm for the calculation of the electricity unit cost and other financial indicators of each technology under investigation. The results demonstrate that, under certain parameters, the investigated MACC condenser system can become a cost-competitive alternative to water- or dry-cooled condensers in various solar potential environments.

Abstract:
Waste Electronic and Electrical Equipment (WEEE) is one of the fastest growing waste streams worldwide, with significant economic value due to the precious metals contained within. Currently, only a small share of the total globally produced quantity produced is treated effectively and a large amount of valuable non-renewable resources are being wasted. Moreover, the methods currently applied in industry on a large scale are not always environmentally friendly. Thus, an economically viable and environmentally friendly method that would achieve high recovery of certain elements is sought. The objective of this paper is to assess four different organic halides as leaching agents for gold recovery from WEEE. Two of them have been previously tested (namely N-bromosuccinimide, NBS, and N-chlorosuccinimide, NCS) and have shown promising results, whereas the other two are novel and were selected due to their lower toxicity levels (trichloroisocyanuric acid, TCICA, and tribromoisocyanuric acid, TBICA). Both commercially supplied pure gold powder and WEEE dust from a recycling company were used as the gold source. Results show that from a technical standpoint, the NBS is a superior solution with both substrates, reaching 61% and 99% extraction efficiency from WEEE dust and pure gold, respectively. The other three methods recorded lower recovery efficiency (with the highest value reaching 36% for NCS, 53% for TCICA and 29% for TBICA). However, taking into account the price of gold and the expenses of the extraction process, only three of the lixiviants tested (NBS, NCS and TCICA) could be potentially profitable and viable on a larger scale.

Abstract:
Marine pollution has increased in recent decades, largely due to the proliferation of seafood processing plants and the improper disposal of their associated waste streams. The waste streams consist mainly of shells that are composed of chitin, which is the most abundant aminopolysaccharide biopolymer in nature. Recognizing the value of chitin, the potential for the valorization of crustacean waste for chitin production was explored. In this regard, biogenic crab waste was subjected to chemical-only, enzymatic–chemical, and microbial treatments for chitin production. The results were employed as inputs for process simulation as a precursor to undertaking performance assessments. This study subsequently showed that the net present values (NPVs) of the chemical-only, enzyme–chemical, and microbial chitin production pathways were GBP 118.63 million, GBP 115.67 million, and GBP 132.34 million, respectively, indicating that the microbial chitin production pathway constituted the most appropriate technology for future investment. Employing a cost–benefit (CB) analysis, the CB ratios for the chemical-only, enzymatic–chemical, and microbial approaches were determined to be 7.31, 0.45, and 0.23, respectively. These results reinforced the dominant status of the microbial approach for chitin production from crab waste as the preferred valorization strategy. This study was able to provide information regarding the implications of executing alternative scenarios for crustacean waste.

Abstract:
Co-Hydrothermal Carbonization (Co-HTC) is a thermochemical process, where coal and biomass were treated simultaneously in subcritical water, resulting in bulk-homogenous hydrochar that is carbon-rich and a hydrophobic solid fuel with combustion characteristics like coal. In this study, technoeconomic analysis of Co-HTC was performed for a scaled-up Co-HTC plant that produces fuel for 110 MWe coal-fired power plant using Clarion coal #4a and miscanthus as starting feedstocks. With precise mass and energy balance of the Co-HTC process, sizing of individual equipment was conducted based on various systems equations. Cost of electricity was calculated from estimated capital, manufacturing, and operating and maintenance costs. The breakeven selling price of Co-HTC hydrochar was $117 per ton for a 110 MWe. Sensitivity analysis indicates that this breakeven selling price could be as low as $106 per ton for a higher capacity plant. Besides plant size, the price of solid fuel is sensitive to the feedstock costs and hydrochar yield.

Abstract:
Titanium hydride (TiH2) is one of the basic materials for titanium (Ti) powder metallurgy. A novel method was proposed to produce TiH2 from the reduction of titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) with magnesium hydride (MgH2) in the hydrogen (H2) atmosphere. The primary approach of this process is to produce TiH2 at a low-temperature range through an efficient and energy-saving process for further titanium powder production. In this study, the thermodynamic assessment and technoeconomic analysis of the process were investigated. The results show that the formation of TiH2 is feasible at low temperatures, and the molar ratio between TiCl4 and metal hydride as a reductant material has a critical role in its formation. Moreover, it was found that the yield of TiH2 is slightly higher when CaH2 is used as a reductant agent. The calculated equilibrium composition diagrams show that when the molar ratio between TiCl4 and metal hydrides is greater than the stoichiometric amount, the TiCl3 phase also forms. With a further increase in this ratio to greater than 4, no TiH2 was formed, and TiCl3 was the dominant product. Furthermore, the technoeconomic study revealed that the highest return on investment was achieved for the production scale of 5 t/batch of Ti powder production, with a payback time of 2.54 years. The analysis shows that the application of metal hydrides for TiH2 production from TiCl4 is technically feasible and economically viable.

Abstract:
The need for a diverse energy matrix has been promoting a favorable environment for integrating new renewable energy sources, such as Concentrated Solar Power plants (CSPs). Nonetheless, as a consequence of the incipient solar generation via CSPs in Brazil, there is a unsatisfactory number of researches that handle technical and economic assessments of CSP plants performance on this country. Given this scenario, this study proposes an assessment of the technoeconomic viability of the implementation of 100 MW CSP plants in Brazil, considering the Solar Tower (ST) systems, Parabolic Trough Collectors (PTC), Linear Fresnel (LFR) Reflectors and Dish Stirling (DS) Systems, and comparing the results to a photovoltaic (PV) plant. This study utilizes project data of power plants collected from the relevant literature and applies it to the city of Bom Jesus da Lapa, Brazil. The CSP techno-economic viability is evaluated through the analysis of the annual energy generated, as well as the economic viability indicators, such as the Net Present Value, the Internal Rate of Return, the Discounted Payback and the Levelized Cost of Energy, and through a single-variable sensitivity analysis. This analysis employs the discounted cash flow model, considering the energy trade in a Regulated Contracting Environment
