Abstract: A process for the production of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) with low carbon intensity. The jet fuel is produced from the reaction of hydrogen from the electrolysis of water with captured carbon dioxide. The hydrogen and carbon dioxide are reacted to product a stream comprising carbon monoxide. Hydrogen and carbon monoxide are reacted to produce n-alkanes. Alkanes are hydroisomerized to produce sustainable aviation fuel with low carbon intensity.

Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for controlling the production of negative carbon-intensity liquid hydrocarbons (e.g., for fuels and chemicals). In various aspects, the methods utilize a feedstock having a negative carbon intensity, produce a co-product from the feedstock, sequester a portion of the CO2 derived from the feedstock, or utilize a portion of the O2 in a process that consumes O2 and emits CO2.

Abstract: The present invention describes a processes, systems, and catalysts for the utilization of carbon dioxide into high quality synthesis gas that can then be used to produce fuels (e.g., diesel fuel) and chemicals. In one aspect, the present invention provides a process for the conversion of a feed gas comprising carbon dioxide and hydrogen to a product gas comprising carbon monoxide and water.

Abstract: Syngas and liquid hydrocarbons are produced from synthesis gas. The synthesis gas is produced from a feed mixture of hydrogen and carbon dioxide. The feed mixture is heated to the reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reactor inlet temperature of 1400 to 1800° F. or even more preferred to a RWGS reactor inlet temperature of 1550 to 1650° F. Some of the heat required to heat the feed mixture to the RWGS inlet temperature is supplied by the oxyfuel combustion of hydrogen or fuel with oxygen and minimizes the load onto electrical heaters or need for gas fired geaters. The high inlet temperature allows a high conversion of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide. Various fuels can be used including hydrogen, hydrocarbons, oxygenates, or carbon monoxide can be used as combustion fuel. The carbon monoxide produced can further be reacted with hydrogen to produce hydrocarbon fuels and chemicals.
