The Moscow Power Engineering Institute (MPEI) has created an oxygen-fuel combustion chamber that runs on organic fuel. The device will generate electricity without emitting greenhouse gases, the university's press service reported.
The main feature of the development is that natural gas inside the chamber is burned in a mixture of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
The team at our university is developing new scientific and technical solutions and equipment for the transition to low-carbon energy. One such solution is to use "semi-closed" cycle power plants with oxygen combustion of fuel.
To manufacture the chamber, scientists identified the optimal proportions of mixing carbon dioxide and oxygen for the complete combustion of natural gas. They also developed a design that provides reliable cooling of the hot parts of the device at temperatures above 1500 °C.
Earlier www1.ru reported that whale fins helped MPEI scientists develop a turbine for small rivers.
