Abstract: | In this paper, some key aspects and definitions of exergy are presented, and practical examples are given in order to highlight
its usefulness in design, analysis and performance improvement for various types of energy processes for better environment
and sustainable development. The relations between exergy, sustainability and environmental impact are illustrated to show
how improving the performance of the process through exergy efficiency affects the environmental impact and sustainable development.
Both exergy and energy efficiencies for various systems/processes are also studied for comparison purposes. |
