In this paper, a trigeneration system that can meet the electricity,
heating, and cooling needs of a factory in Bursa is introduced. The trigeneration
system consists of a gas engine to produce electrical power, a single effect
absorption chiller that uses LiBr/H2O as a working fluid for process cooling, and
heat exchangers for heating. In this facility application, the investment and
operating costs of the trigeneration system were determined, system feasibility was
made, and payback periods in 3 different shifts were determined for alternative
scenarios. For scenario 1; the payback period is 3,58 years, 5,47 years, 11,57
years, and for scenario 2; it is 10,47 years, 16,57 years, 39,72 years, respectively,
when the factory operates in 3, 2, and 1 shift.
