DEVICE, METHOD AND SYSTEM TO PRODUCE THERMAL AND/OR KINETIC, AND ALSO ELECTRIC ENERGY Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC H01M8/06 

FIELD: power engineering.

SUBSTANCE: device (5, 105) to extract energy from hydrocarbon mixture (15), comprising at least one dehydrated compound, in particular, from fuel based on hydrocarbons, preferably, from kerosene, includes the following components: reservoir (10, 110) for storage of hydrocarbon mixture (15) and internal combustion engine (20, 120) joined to reservoir (10, 110) to burn hydrocarbons in order to produce heat and/or kinetic energy (25, 125, 30, 130), at the same time device (5, 105) comprises the following: plant (35, 135) of separation for at least partial separation of at least one dehydrated compound of hydrocarbon mixture (15), facility (40, 140) of dehydration to produce hydrogen from separated dehydrated compound by dehydration, the first facility (45, 145) of supply for direct or indirect supply of dehydrated compound to internal combustion engine (20, 120) and fuel element (50, 150) for production of electric energy (55, 155) during conversion of produced hydrogen.

EFFECT: increased service life at low costs for maintenance.
