This thesis assesses the technical and economic feasibility of various equipment configurations for polygeneration systems using sugarcane bagasse gasification in order to identify the best alternative to increase electricity production, generate surpluses that can be sold to the grid and improve the electrical efficiency of a conventional sugar industry factory's polygeneration system. Alternatives 1 and 2 involved integrating a gasification module into a combined cycle: the former employed a gas turbine, assessed with various models, while the latter utilized a gas engine, where evaluations involved modifications to the number of units of the MAN 18V51/60DFTS model. Alternatives 3 and 4 were founded upon integrating a gasification module into an open cycle to provide support to the existing system of the sugar factory, using a Solar Mars 90 gas turbine in the third and a MAN 12V51/60DF gas engine in the fourth. All alternatives showcased improvements in both electricity generation (from 135,288 MWh/year to 1,679,262 MWh/year) and electrical efficiency (from 11.85 % to 41.65 %) when compared to the existing plant (32,076 MWh/year and 5.46 %, respectively). From an economic standpoint, the implementation is relatively costly, with LCOE values ranging from 60 USD/MWh to 200 USD/MWh and a payback period spanning from 14.9 to 49.8 years. Consequently, its competitiveness is diminished when compared to other renewable or non-renewable energy supply options. Both technically and economically, Alternative 1 featuring the Siemens SGT6-4000F gas turbine emerged as the best design alternative.
