Proposals of Cogeneration System Alternatives as Cost Reduction Factor in the Use and Consumption of Energy and Pollutant Emission Gases in Alpha Hospital in Manaus City
Descrição
Hospitals have the highest energy consumption in units per area in the buildings. Continuous use of
heating and cooling equipment requires greater attention in all directions in order to maintain
satisfactory thermal comfort and indoor air quality levels for patients. Knowing that this structure has
a cost with electric energy consumption, this work was developed from the structural analysis of the
Alpha hospital, where it was surveyed its attendance capacity, equipment that requires the use of
electric energy and the consume periods, considering the climate. From this, it was analyzed the
equipment that is needed to implement a cogeneration module in the hospital, proposing two
possibilities and analyzing its economic viability and return on investment in the medium and long
term.
