  This study focuses on the optimization of Combination Cycle Power Plants (CCPPs) using Aspen HYSYS to enhance thermal efficiency, reduce emissions, and lower operational costs. Utilizing genetic algorithms, we identified optimal operational parameters for CCPPs, resulting in significant improvements. The simulation setup in Aspen HYSYS was meticulously designed, and various optimization techniques were explored. Our results show a notable increase in thermal efficiency, substantial reductions in NOx and CO2 emissions, and considerable cost savings. This research contributes to the existing body of knowledge by providing a comprehensive methodology for CCPP optimization, setting a new benchmark for future studies. The practical implications of our findings are significant, offering power plant operator’s strategies to achieve higher efficiency, comply with environmental regulatio.. Read More»
