AB  - Desalination is an important method to take full advantage of the sea water to produce fresh water. However, the systems or devices reported previously still have the limitations in the energy supply and portability when used in some specific application scenarios, such as island and remote coastal area. In this paper, a multi-function desalination system is proposed, which could provide fresh water, electrical energy, and even the cold energy based on the hydrolysis reaction of hydride and fuel cell water recovery. Besides, the system could be modified to increase the flexibility of the system operation to satisfy the various energy demands under different conditions. A lumped parameter model of the proposed system is developed to evaluate the system performance. The results show that the fuel cell helps to increase the absolute humidity of the wet air by 15.5% and to increase the water production by condensing the wet air by 1.8 times compared with simple water harvest from the ambient environment. The modified system demonstrates more stable performance of the water production than the original desalination system, which means that the modified system is less affected by the parameter variation. The maximum water production of the kW level system could achieve 11.10 kg/h. Comparing with the previous reports, the unit power consumption of the modified system could reach the lowest level (about 880 Wh/kg), showing the promising water production performance of the system developed in this work.

AB  - In order to develop clean and efficient energy conversion technology, a novel combined cooling, heating and power (CCHP) system using biomass as fuel is proposed in this work. The proposed CCHP system consists of biomass gasification unit, solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), engine power generation unit and absorption refrigeration unit. Thermodynamic model of the CCHP system is developed for the parametric and exergy analyses to evaluate the performance. The parametric analysis shows that increasing the steam to biomass ratio or the SOFC fuel utilization factor helps to improve the electrical efficiency, while the increase of air equivalent ratio has a negative effect. The exergy analysis shows that the two units of biomass gasification and engine power generation have the largest exergy destruction ratio, which is 46.9% and 16.8% under the biomass flux of 500 kg·h−1. This is because these two units involve in high-temperature thermochemical reaction process, resulting in relatively large exergy destruction. Besides, the tradeoff between maximum exergy efficiency, CCHP efficiency and minimum total annual cost is conducted by multi-objective optimization. Through optimization, the system could reach the high CCHP efficiency of 75% and net electrical efficiency of 52%, as well as the low total annual cost of 410 k$ simultaneously. This work could provide the basic design idea, and high-efficiency and low-cost operation strategy for the practical application of the proposed novel biomass-fueled CCHP poly-generation system.
