Abstract: A bottoming cycle power system includes a turbine-generator. The turbine-generator includes a turbo-expander and turbo-compressor disposed on a turbo-crankshaft. The turbo-expander is operable to rotate the turbo-crankshaft as a flow of exhaust gas from a combustion process passes through the turbo-expander. The turbo-compressor is operable to compress the flow of exhaust gas after the exhaust gas passes through the turbo-expander. An exhaust gas heat exchanger includes first and second flow paths operable to exchange heat therebetween. The first flow path is operable to receive the flow of exhaust gas from the turbo-expander prior to the exhaust gas being compressed by the turbo-compressor. The second flow path is operable to receive the flow of exhaust gas from the turbo-compressor after the exhaust gas has been compressed by the turbo-compressor.

Abstract: A water removal system includes an absorption chiller system and a heat pump system. The absorption chiller system includes a generator section, a condenser section, an evaporator section and an absorber section all in fluid communication and which operate to circulate water as a first refrigerant therethrough. The heat pump system includes a heat pump compressor, a heat pump condenser and a heat pump evaporator all in fluid communication and which operate to circulate a second refrigerant therethrough. The heat pump evaporator is in heat exchange communication with at least one of the condenser section or the absorber section and is configured to evaporate the second refrigerant to transfer heat from the first refrigerant to the second refrigerant. The heat pump condenser is in heat exchange communication with the generator section and is configured to condense the second refrigerant to transfer heat from the second refrigerant to first refrigerant.

Abstract: An absorption chiller system includes a generator section, a condenser section, an evaporator section and an absorber section all in fluid communication with each other and which operate to circulate a refrigerant therethrough. The evaporator section includes a transport membrane heat exchanger. The transport membrane heat exchanger includes a first and a second flow path. The first flow path is operable to flow the refrigerant therethrough under a vacuum pressure that is low enough to vaporize the refrigerant within the first flow path. The second flow path is operable to pass a fluid having water therethrough. Both water and heat are transferred from the fluid in the second flow path to the refrigerant in the first flow path through a membrane-based material of the transport membrane heat exchanger, such that the fluid passing through the second flow path has at least a portion of its water removed and is cooled.

Abstract: A bottoming cycle power system includes a turbo-expander operable to rotate a turbo-crankshaft as a flow of exhaust gas from a combustion process passes through the turbo-expander. A turbo-compressor is operable to compress the flow of exhaust gas after the exhaust gas passes through the turbo-expander. An open cycle absorption chiller system includes an absorber section operable to receive the flow of exhaust gas from the turbo-expander and to mix the flow of exhaust gas with a first refrigerant solution within the absorber section. The first refrigerant solution is operable to absorb water from the exhaust gas as the exhaust gas passes through the first refrigerant solution. The absorber section is operable to route the flow of exhaust gas to the turbo-compressor after the flow of exhaust gas has passed through the first refrigerant solution.
