The paper presents a thermoecological evaluation of a trigeneration module based on an Internal Combustion Engine fuelled with selected fuels of various origin: domestic/mixed-origin natural gas, CMM (coal mine methane) and biogas. The generated products comprise: electric energy, heat available in hot water and cold generated in an absorption chiller. Transformations of energy and exergy in the trigeneration module have been analysed, and the TEC (thermoecological cost) of the products has been determined. The decomposition of TEC into the cost of resources, the contribution of process irreversibility and the equivalent cost of noxious substances has been shown. The chosen gaseous fuels reflect four different cases: a fossil, non-renewable resource (1 – domestic, 2 – mixed origin) 3 – a by-product from the extraction of a fossil resource and 4 – a renewable resource. It has been demonstrated how the TEC of final products depends on the chosen resource, on the process irreversibility, and on the waste contribution. TEC of electricity produced in the trigeneration module varies from 0.30 (biomass syngas) to 3.11 (mixed origin natural gas), and the TEC of the generated heat and cold varies from 0.61 to 6.46 (heat) and 3.37 and 35.5 (cold) accordingly.
