ABSTRACT:
In a method for the operation of a power station installation which essentially comprises a compressor (4), a combustion unit and a turbine (12), the combustion unit comprising a conditioning stage for at least part of the combustion air and a combustion chamber, a portion (13a) of the compressed air (13) from the compressor (4) is passed through the conditioning stage and there first of all mixed with a quantity of fuel (14a). This mixture then passes into a generator (8), in which at least hydrogen is fractionated, this hydrogen then being used in the combustion chamber. The combustion chamber comprises a start-up burner (1), a catalytic stage (2) and a downstream second combustion stage (3). Both the air/fuel mixture (16a) fractionated in the generator (8) and the further compressor air (13) enter the combustion chamber, in which interdependent combustion occurs between the combustion units acting there, relative to the running up of the installation, for the purpose of minimizing pollutant emissions. (FIG. 1)
