Resumo

Cogeneration, the combined generation of steam and electricity, is an efficient and cost-effective means to save energy and reduce pollution. The aim of this work is to implement a technical and financial study of viability for the installation of a cogeneration system in the abattoir and frigorific industry. The system will be built considering the use of a counter-pressure steam turbine and a boiler using wood as fuel. Two systems will be considered: one system will analyze the industrial thermal demand and the other will consider a surplus of electricity, aiming self-sufficiency in the generation of electricity for the red meat abattoir and frigorific industry. There is, according to the payback on investment, which is the most attractive.
