Gas turbine cycle employing secondary fuel as a coolant, and utilizing the turbine exhaust gases in chemical reactions

Claim 1

A PROCESS FOR MAKING VALUABLE PRODUCTS OF INCOMPLETE OXIDATION OF A FLUID-FUEL IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE OPERATION OF A GAS TURBINE, WHICH INCLUDES THE STEPS COMPRISING, PASSING UNDER SUPERATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE A COMBUSTIBLE FLUID TO BE OXIDIZED AS A STREM INTO A PRIMARY REACTION ZONE, CONFINED IN A REACTION CHAMBER, ALSO UNDER SUPERATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE PASSING AN OXIDANT INTO SAID ZONE AS A STREAM, PROMOTING EXOTHERMIC REACTIONS OF SAID COMBUSTIBLE FLUID WITH SAID OXIDANT IN THE HOT REACTION TEMPERATURE, ABOVE 2000*F. PASSING THE HOT REACTION PRODUCT THUS MADE DIRECTLY AND CONTINUOUSLY FROM SAID ZONE TO A SECNDARY REAWCTION ZONE OF SAID CHAMBER, IMMEDIATELY MIXING IT THEREIN WITH ADDITIONAL REACTANTS, INCLUDING STEAM OR WATER, THEREBY PROMOTING CHEMICAL ENDOTHERMIC REACTION IN THE MIXTURE WITH THE FORMATION OF CARBON MONOXIDE AND HYDROGEN WHILE LOWERING THE TEMPERATURE OF THE REACTING FLUID MIXTURE TO BELOW 2000*F.
