Abstract:
1. A combined diesel-gas turbine system, the system comprising: a diesel engine; a catalytic sub-system in communication with an exhaust port of the diesel engine, the catalytic sub-system operative for combusting all unburned exhaust pollutants, and reducing NOx, the catalytic sub-system increases the internal energy of the exhaust gases; a gas-turbine sub-system for delivering excess energy to a storage system; and a hybrid electric sub-system for the management of energy generated by the storage system; wherein the combined diesel-gas turbine system operates at steady conditions close to stoichiometric conditions; and wherein the catalytic sub-system includes a first catalytic converter and a second catalytic converter, the first catalytic converter operative to burn HC, CO, VOC and H
