FIELD: engines and pumps.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to cogeneration plant running on metal-bearing fuel. This plant comprises at least one reaction chamber, feeders of at least one water-based liquid oxidiser and feeders of at least one metal-bearing fuel to chamber. Note here that said oxidiser and fuel can cause exothermal oxidation reaction to produce hydrogen gas and at least one metal oxide. Said feeders can feed oxidiser in amount notably higher than stoichiometric amount for vaporisation. It includes at least one fluid-based moving unit for steam to be fed at inlet to actuate drive shaft. Besides, it comprises separator and extractor of steam arranged between the chamber and moving unit inlet. Finally, it includes bleeder of hydrogen fed to storage or consuming equipment.
EFFECT: continuous and independent operation, non-polluting design.
