Patent ID: 7594387

Claim:
A modified fuel burning gas turbine comprising: a system for pressurizing heavy oil by a pressurizing pump and heating the pressurized heavy oil in an exhaust heat recovering boiler, thereby obtaining high-temperature, high-pressure heavy oil; a system for pressurizing water by a pressurizing pump and heating the pressurized water in said exhaust heat recovering boiler, thereby obtaining high-temperature, high-pressure water; a modifying unit for mixing the high-temperature, high-pressure heavy oil with the high-temperature, high-pressure water to produce fuel-purpose modified oil modified in property and lightened; a depressurizing device disposed between said modifying unit and a combustor; a separator for separation of depressurized the fuel-purpose modified oil into liquid-phase modified oil and steam; a gas turbine operated with the liquid-phase modified oil supplied to said combustor and discharging exhaust gases into said exhaust heat recovering boiler; a condenser for condensing the steam separated by said separator to water; and a resupplier for resupplying the condensed water to said modifying unit.
