System construction and economic analysis of a heat pump driven by a biogas engine.

Author(s) : WU J. Y., ZENG J. Q.

Summary

A biogas engine-driven heat pump (BEHP) is a heating appliance for energy saving and environmental protection. Compared with electric-driven or motor-driven compression heat pumps, a BEHP system has similar main components but different power sources. Furthermore, it not only has the same functions as the compression heat pump, but it can also recover and use waste heat from biogas engine. In the paper, the system construction of a BEHP is developed, the primary energy ratio is calculated in comparison with four other heating appliances, and the economic analysis together with environmental benefits are given out. The results show that the proposed BEHP system has better benefits in energy saving and environmental protection.
