University certificate
The world's largest faculty of engineering”
Introduction to the Program
You will learn the different types of cogeneration system technologies that exist, their future trends and how they can be successfully integrated with combined cycles"

Due to the boom that this technology is having, especially in the residential and industrial field, we will study in detail its operation, alternatives in different processes, and the justification for its construction. Thus, in this program we will analyze the different types of cogeneration system technologies that currently exist and their future trends: with reciprocating engines, gas and steam turbines, and how they can be integrated with combined cycles. Likewise, we will break down the operation of the different alternative engines that exist and their influence on the generation process.
In this type of power plants, it is very important to acquire the knowledge of the operation and functioning of the pyrotubular steam generators; therefore, the student will learn how they work, the fuels used and the water treatment to which they are subjected. In this way, you will acquire in-depth knowledge of the technology of the absorption machines that are usually installed in this type of power plant.
On the other hand, since the production process in this type of power plant is based on heat transfer, a topic will be devoted exclusively to the heat exchangers used. Therefore, the analysis of cogeneration plants based on tails cycles, the organic fluids used and the associated thermodynamic process is addressed.
In turn, we will pay attention to the trigeneration, tetrageneration and microcogeneration modalities and their various applications. Finally, the program includes a focus on the evolution and new trends in cogeneration plants.
In addition, as it is a 100% online, program, it provides the student with the ease of being able to study it comfortably, wherever and whenever they want. All you need is a device with internet access to take your career one step further. A modality in line with the current times with all the guarantees to position the professional in a highly demanded area in continuous change, in line with the SDGs promoted by the UN.
