Introducing, evaluation and exergetic performance assessment of a novel hybrid system composed of MCFC, methanol synthesis process, and a combined power cycle

[Display omitted] •A hybrid MCFC-MSP-CHP was proposed and exergetically assessed.•The system produced 110.5 MW power, 271.7 kgmole/h methanol, and hot water.•Overall exergy & energy efficiencies were found 58.4 and 83.7%.•23% of the overall exergy destruction occurred in the combustion chamber.•...
