Abstract

This study presents design and construction of a tri-generation system (thermal efficiency, 63%), powered by neat non-edible plant oils (jatropha, pongamia and jojoba oil or standard diesel fuel), besides studies on plant performance and economics. Proposed plant consumes fuel (3 l/h) and produce ice (40 kg/h) by means of an adsorption refrigerator powered from the engine waste jacket water heat. Potential savings in green house gas (GHG) emissions of trigeneration system in comparison to co-generation (or single generation) has also been discussed.
