ABSTRACT:
An improved, closed-cycle magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) power generation system wherein the MHD generator is fueled by sulfur burned in oxygen, together with stages for recovering sulfur dioxide, reducing SO.sub.2 to elemental sulfur, and returning reduced elemental sulfur to the MHD unit such that higher flame temperatures and ionization factors are obtained while pollutants typically generated by fossil-fueled MHD power generation systems are essentially eliminated.
