Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6A New Electro-Biomembrane Integrated Renewable-Based System To Produce Power, Fresh Water and Hydrogen for Sustainable Communities(Elsevier, 2025) Goren, A. Yagmur; Dincer, Ibrahim; Khalvati, AliAs the consequences of global warming become more severe, it is more crucial than ever to capitalize on all locally accessible potential renewable energy sources and produce sufficient useable energy outputs to meet community demands while causing the least damage to the ecosystem. Therefore, this paper focuses on a unique parabolic trough collector solar system-powered electro-biomembrane unit that combines a heat and power system with fresh water, electricity and hydrogen production. The proposed integrated system contains the following subsystems: a combining parabolic trough collector solar system, an organic Rankine cycle, a steam Rankine cycle, a multi-stage flash desalination system, and an electro-biomembrane H2 and freshwater production system. A thorough analysis and parametric research are performed on the multigeneration system to determine how important characteristics affect system performance and evaluate the energy and exergy efficiencies, and exergy destruction levels for particular system elements. The study results show that solar irradiation is the most critical parameter for improving system performance. The highest freshwater production of 1,303,333.3 L/day is observed at the solar irradiation of 935,768 kWh/day. Furthermore, the combined output of three electricity production technologies exceeds 2,000,000 kWh/day, highlighting the ability of the system to harness solar thermal energy effectively. The study findings indicate that using solar power and biomass as renewable energy sources, the proposed integrated system provided 328.56 kg of biohydrogen per day. Overall, the energy and exergy efficiencies of the integrated system are obtained as 34.3 and 29.5 %, respectively.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Comprehensive Thermoeconomic Study of a New Solar Thermosyphon-Assisted Multigeneration System(Elsevier, 2023) Anamaq, Rasoul Najafi; Khani, Leyla; Mohammadpourfard, Mousa; Heris, Saeed Zeinali; Gökçen Akkurt, GüldenNowadays, due to the global energy crisis, limited reservoirs of fossil fuels, and their negative environmental effects, the use of renewable energy sources and multigeneration systems have become good alternatives for conventional thermodynamic systems. One of these resources, whose technology has developed rapidly in recent years, is the use of solar energy for the simultaneous generation of various products. Therefore, in this research, a multigeneration system with several subsystems is introduced. The proposed system includes a solar energy collector to receive thermal energy, two thermal energy storage tanks, an organic Rankine cycle, and a Kalina cycle to generate electricity, a multi-effect distillation unit to produce fresh water, an electrolyzer to produce hydrogen, as well as heat recovery for hot water and hot air generation. In this multigeneration system, the cooling unit is designed with the help of a thermosyphon. The performance of the proposed system is studied from energy, exergy, environmental, and exergoeconomic viewpoints using Aspen HYSYS and EES software. The obtained results show that due to the addition of the thermosyphon unit to the refrigeration system, the exergy efficiency increases from 55.62% to 70.26%. As a result of this combination, the performance of the whole system is improved and the amount of costs are reduced. In addition, the parabolic collector system has the highest exergy destruction ratio, 39%, among the subsystems. Furthermore, the results of the exergoeconomic analysis indicate that the PEM water heater with 33.3% and the ejector with 22.7% own the highest cost destruction rates.Article Citation - WoS: 58Citation - Scopus: 76Utilization of Renewable Energy Sources in Desalination of Geothermal Water for Agriculture(Elsevier, 2021) Tomaszewska, Barbara; Gökçen Akkurt, Gülden; Kaczmarczyk, Michal; Bujakowski, Wieslaw; Keleş, Nazlı; Jarma, Yakubu A.; Baba, Alper; Bryjak, Marek; Kabay, NalanThe agricultural sector, which is highly dependent on water, is urged to build on improved water management practices and explore available options to match supply and demand because of the water scarcity risks and a sustainable and productive agri-food chain. Geothermal water is an energy source used to generate electricity and/or heat. After harnessing its energy, the remaining water can be used as a water source for irrigation following treatment because of its high ionic content. Geothermal fields are mostly located in rural areas where agricultural activities exist. This would be a good match to decrease the transportation cost of irrigation water. The energy demand of the desalination process for agriculture is higher, requiring additional post-treatment processes. Fossil fuels to fulfill the energy requirements are becoming expensive, and greenhouse gas emissions are harmful to the environment. Thus, efforts should be directed towards integrating renewable energy resources into desalination process. This work focuses on presenting a comprehensive review of geothermal water desalination which is powered by renewable energy and provides specific cases from Turkey and Poland. Furthermore, possible new generation renewable energy systems in desalination are introduced, considering their potential application in the desalination of geothermal water for agricultural irrigation.
