Infrared plasma light recycling thermophotovoltaic hydrogen plasma electrical power generator

A power generation system comprising:

• a) at least one vessel comprising a baseplate capable of a maintaining a pressure below atmospheric comprising a reaction chamber;
• b) two electrodes each in fluid communication with molten metal contained in a corresponding reservoir, wherein the molten metal is configured to flow between the electrodes to complete a circuit with a molten metal pump system, wherein the molten metal pump system comprises a moving magnet pump comprising permanent magnets of alternating polarity over an electromagnetic pump tube, and the permanent magnets induce a rotating induction current in the molten metal to cause molten metal pump and ejection through the electromagnetic pump tube to form a molten metal stream;
• c) a power source connected to said two electrodes comprising a cathode and anode to apply an ignition current therebetween when said circuit is closed;
• d) optionally, a plasma generation cell (e.g., glow discharge cell) to induce the formation of a first plasma from a gas;
• wherein effluence of the plasma generation cell is directed towards the circuit (e.g., the molten metal, the anode, the cathode, each supplied molten metal by its molten metal reservoir);
• wherein when current is applied across the circuit, the effluence of the plasma generation cell undergoes a reaction to produce a second plasma and reaction products wherein energy from second plasma produces radiation;
• e) a transparent window cavity to transmit radiation produced from the second plasma, wherein the transparent window cavity is in contact with the baseplate of the vessel;
• f) a wet seal between the transparent window cavity and the baseplate comprising a wet seal molten metal, and
• g) a power adapter configured to receive the radiation transmitted through the transparent window cavity and convert and/or transfer energy from the second plasma into mechanical, thermal, and/or electrical energy.
