Plastic-powered power generator. In an embodiment, the plastic-powered power generator comprises a primary reactor with an air-fuel distribution assembly configured to supply fluidized polymer, air, and oxidizer to a primary reactor chamber, and an ignition system configured to ignite a mixture of the fluidized polymer, air, and oxidizer. The primary reactor chamber extends into a secondary reactor, to, when ignited, heat air flowing through the secondary reactor from a blower to a heat exchanger. The heated air flow converts fluid, in a coil within the heat exchanger, into steam, which can drive a turbine to generate electrical power.

A pressure reduction system may include an alternator with a casing and a rotor positioned, at least in part, within a cavity defined by the casing. The pressure reduction system may also include a mass management system that includes a control tank configured to be maintained at a tank pressure lower than a cavity pressure within the cavity of the alternator, thereby forming a pressure differential.

Automatic wind and photovoltaic energy storage system for generation of uninterrupted electricity and energy autonomy, characterized in that it consists of wind machines (A) and photovoltaic generators (B) combined or independent which operate mechanically or electrically connected suitable compressors (Γ1, Γ2, Γ3, Γ4) that compress air at high pressure while simultaneously removing the heat generated by compression with small heat exchangers (E1, E2, E3, E4), by heating diathermic cooling oil and water stored in separate insulated tanks (H1, H2, H3, Z2) they drive it to an airtight tank-serpentine coil type tank (M), where it exits and after passing through the air flow distributor in each group of high pressure crosses the groups of heat exchangers (θ1) in which the flow flows backwards cooling oil, where its thermal charge is transferred and heats the compressed air before entering the gas turbine and expands to a certain pressure lower and temperature lower the original T2. At this point the compressed air flows coming out of the turbine and reheats in the same way as in the first re-heat, that is, by crossing another set of heat exchangers (02) similar to the first one, but at a lower pressure and re-introducing at the same pressure it exited but at the same temperature as the original Ti.

In the present invention, a recuperator is used in a refrigerant cycle to make a heat exchange between a refrigerant generated in a condenser and a refrigerant before flowing into a compressor, thereby supercooling the refrigerant to minimize the quality of the refrigerant introduced into an evaporator, elevating temperatures at an inlet and an outlet of the compressor, and increasing condensed heat of the condenser. In the present invention, a recuperator is used to increase condensed heat of the condenser, leading to increasing the heat which circulation water circulating in a steam producing cycle receives from the condenser, whereby steam production efficiency can be improved.
