Polygeneration process is widely used to pursuit high efficiency by sharing electricity, utility, refrigeration and the utilization of product chemicals. In this paper, performance analysis of the 450 MW Class polygeneration process was conducted with various syngas generated from coal and biomass gasifier. WGSR and PSA process were employed for hydrogen production and separation. Process modeling and dynamic simulation was carried out, and the results were compared with NETL report. Net power of the polygeneration process was 439 MW considering power consumption. More than 90% of CO was converted at WGSR and the hydrogen purity of PSA was more than 99.99%.

In this work, a simulation study on net 500 MW class of Poly-Generation was conducted for the retrofit of an aged natural gas combined cycle. An entrained gasifier which has a capacity of maximum $260,000Nm^3/h$, 50 MW class of a Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell, and H-class Gas Turbine were selected as key processes. After unit design for those employed processes was set up and combined, the simulation was carried out with Gate-Cycle software (Ver. 6.0) for two cases. The selected cases are a retrofit type (Poly-Gen 1) and a new type (Poly-Gen 2). It was found that the efficiency of the retrofit case is 2.7% lower than that of the new case.
