Abstract
A reactor vessel is established wherein a fuel is oxidized within an inert oxygen-carrier liquid. A portion of the heat of oxidation is used to raise steam. In one embodiment a double acting engine is interconnected to the reactor vessel wherein the first stroke of the piston is actuated by exhaust gases from the products of oxidation and the return stroke of the piston is actuated by the said steam. In other embodiments generated gases are used to power a turbine and a gas lift pump.
