Abstract: Processes and systems for oxygen-enhanced Claus carbon dioxide recovery are disclosed. Oxygen is fed to a sulfur recovery unit instead of air. The tail gas is fed to a tail gas treatment unit which produces a treated tail gas, and the treated tail gas is processed in a carbon dioxide recovery unit to produce a carbon dioxide product. A method for retrofitting an existing sulfur recovery unit and tail gas treatment unit so as to recover the carbon dioxide product is also disclosed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating higher alcohols from synthesis gas produced from carbonaceous materials are described, which can include a reactor configured to produce an alcohol stream and CO2 from a syngas feed. The alcohol stream can be separated in one or more downstream separators to produce a net reactor product and a methanol stream that can recycled into the reactor. The net reactor product preferably comprises higher-order alcohols such as ethanol, propanol, and butanol.

Abstract: A method of diverting municipal solid waste (MSW) from a landfill that includes receiving, at a MSW processing system, a quantity of MSW, gasifying the quantity of MSW in a gasification unit to yield a syngas stream and biochar stream, converting at least a portion of the syngas to mixed alcohols in an alcohol synthesis unit, separating the mixed alcohols into one or more alcohol products, and determining a carbon offset for diverting the MSW from the landfill to the MSW processing system.
