    Abstract: The present invention provides a process for the manufacture of a useful product from carbonaceous feedstock of fluctuating compositional characteristics, the process comprising the steps of: continuously providing the carbonaceous feedstock of fluctuating compositional characteristics to a gasification zone; gasifying the carbonaceous feedstock in the gasification zone to obtain raw synthesis gas; sequentially removing ammoniacal, sulphurous and carbon dioxide impurities from the raw synthesis gas to form desulphurised gas and recovering carbon dioxide in substantially pure form; converting at least a portion of the desulphurised synthesis gas to a useful product. Despite having selected a more energy intensive sub-process i.e. physical absorption for removal of acid gas impurities, the overall power requirement of the facility is lower on account of lower steam requirements and thereby leading to a decrease in the carbon intensity score for the facility.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a process of conducting catalyst regeneration in a plant facility, comprising; providing a plant facility with a unit area operating within battery limits; wherein the battery limits of the unit area are configured to receive a feed material; receiving the feed material into the battery limits and flowing the feed material within the unit area of the plant facility through a plurality of parallel flow paths in a plurality of reactor trains wherein; each reactor train comprises at least one reactor; and at least one reactor in each reactor train is charged with a catalyst; isolating in at isolation step at least one, but not all, of the plurality of parallel flow paths to provide at least one isolated reactor train and remaining on-line reactor trains; regenerating in a regeneration step the catalyst in the at least one reactor in the at least one isolated reactor train; wherein during the regeneration step the feed material flows through the parallel flow paths supplied from the battery limits and accepted for processing in the plant facility is approximately constant before and during the isolation step.

    Abstract: A process for the manufacture of one or more useful products comprises: gasifying a carbonaceous feedstock comprising waste materials and/or biomass in a gasification zone to generate a raw synthesis gas; supplying at least a portion of the raw synthesis gas to a clean-up zone to remove contaminants and provide a clean synthesis gas; supplying the clean synthesis gas to a first further reaction train to generate at least one first useful product and a tailgas; and diverting selectively on demand a portion of at least one of the carbonaceous feedstock, the clean synthesis gas, the tailgas and the light gas fraction to heat or power generation within the process, in response to external factors to control the carbon intensity of the overall process and enable GHG emission savings.
