Yeah, that part bugged me a little bit, too, 'cuz the stuff that feeds the turbine is hella bigger than "desk sized". They're talking about a 10MW turbine that's 50% efficient rather than 40% efficient and a 10MW steam turbine isn't much bigger than a "desk" but the stuff that keeps it going is a shipping container's worth. It's still cool, though. Turbines are sensitive to working fluid and whenever someone whips out a new working fluid it's interesting to see what they do with it.
