    Exploring Geothermal Energy Based Systems: Review From Basics To Smart Systems
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2025) Anya, Belka; Mohammadpourfard, Mousa; Akkurt, Gulden Gokcen; Mohammadi-Ivatloo, Behnam
    Most of the energy demand is currently supplied from fossil fuels, which leads to the accumulation of greenhouse gases and air pollution. A sustainable future can be created globally through the efficient use of renewable energy sources. These sources include wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, and more. Geothermal energy can meet the energy needs of the future as a clean and reliable source and stands out due to certain distinctive features among renewable energy sources. Unlike other renewable energy sources, geothermal energy is not dependent on time or weather, making it a reliable and continuous energy supply. Additionally, it has a lower environmental impact. This review examines the development of geothermal energy systems and their integration into smart technologies, highlighting the potential of geothermal energy for smart energy systems. The focus is on integrating smart systems into geothermal-based setups to enhance efficiency and analyze the state-of-the-art technologies of such systems. Geothermal-based systems can be classified as single generation, co-generation, multigeneration, smart energy systems, and energy hubs. Consequent to examining systems, it has been concluded that geothermal systems have a huge potential, but unfortunately, not all of them are used due to some difficulties. Its development will occur faster, and its share in the renewable energy sector will grow with smart system integration.

    Design and Thermodynamic Analysis of a Novel Methanol, Hydrogen, and Power Trigeneration System Based on Renewable Energy and Flue Gas Carbon Dioxide
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2021) Nazerifard, Reza; Khani, Leyla; Mohammadpourfard, Mousa; Mohammadi-Ivatloo, Behnam; Gökçen Akkurt, Gülden
    In this paper, a new trigeneration system is proposed to decrease atmospheric carbon dioxide emission and produce methanol, hydrogen, and power. The system is composed of an organic Rankine cycle, a direct methanol fuel cell, a carbon capture unit, a proton exchange membrane electrolyzer, and a methanol synthesis unit. A flue gas stream with a defined composition, solar energy, and the atmospheric air are the system?s inlets. In the design step, special attention is paid to heat and mass integration between different components so that its waste can be lowered as much as possible. Then, mass balance law, energy conservation principle, exergy relations, and auxiliary equations are applied for each subsystem to investigate the system's thermodynamic performance. Also, the effect of changing operating parameters on the performance of each subsystem is studied. The obtained results show that the proposed system has the energy and exergy efficiencies of 66.84% and 55.10%, respectively. Furthermore, 94% of the total exergy destruction rate belongs to the water electrolyzer, while the contribution of the organic Rankine cycle is negligible. The performance of the methanol synthesis reactor depends strongly on its inlet temperature. Maximum equilibrium methanol concentration and carbon dioxide conversion are achieved at the inlet temperature of 210 degrees C. The parametric studies reveal that there is an optimum fuel cell current density in which its produced power density is maximized.
