Hydrocarbon fueled liquid gallium fuel generator system

摘要

Apparatus including a gallium fuel generator configured to convert gallium hydroxide to gallium fuel, the generator comprising a combustor for receipt and combustion of hydrocarbon fuel and an oxidizing gas to form a pressurized hot gas mixture including reducing gases, a dehydrator for dehydrating gallium hydroxide to gallium sesquioxide, a reducer configured to receive the gallium sesquioxide and hot gas mixture to form by reduction an intermixture including spent gases and gallium fuel, and a gallium fuel separator configured to receive and separate the gallium fuel from the intermixture.
