<p>The present invention discloses a turbine assembly (20b) driven by predetermined deflagration of anaerobic fuel. The use of anaerobic fuel enables operation without any necessity for an additional oxidant, and leads to more efficient and environmentally friendly turbine operation. In addition, the gaseous products of the deflagration can be used for any number of purposes after they have passed through the turbine, e.g. combustion of the inflammable portion can drive a second turbine stage (214, 216) or be used to heat air or water.</p> |
