Abstract

An electricity-generating installation comprises an internal-combustion engine 1 driving a primary electricity generator 2, the engine has an exhaust gas outlet arranged to pass exhaust gases through a pair of heat exchangers 5,6 in each of which a plurality of heat pipes are configured to transfer heat from the exhaust gases into a closed non-condensing steam circuit. The circuit contains a reciprocating steam engine 12 driving a secondary electricity generator 13, control means are provided to admit lower-pressure exhaust steam from the steam engine alternately to the heat exchangers and to pass higher-pressure steam from the heat-exchangers to an accumulator 7 feeding higher-pressure steam to the steam engine. The steam engine may have a plurality of cylinders acting on a common crank shaft. The IC engine may be a spark-ignition or compression-ignition reciprocating piston engine. The installation may be used with a combined heat and power system. The installation may comprise a vegetable oil extraction plant and fermentation means.
