1. Chemical absorption/regeneration apparatus for converting thermal energy to forms suitable for performing useful work at a high efficiency comprising:

  • absorber means for causing an exothermic chemical reaction;

    first energy extraction means for extracting heat energy from said exothermic reaction;

    first work producing means arranged to utilize such first extracted heat energy;

    regeneration means for producing an endothermic chemical reaction, said reaction reversing said exothermic chemical reaction;

    second energy extraction means for extracting energy introduced by said regeneration means not required for said endothermic reaction; and

    second work producing means arranged to utilize such second extracted energy.
