MUMBAI, India, Sept. 22 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617077990 A) filed by Topsoe As on June 24, 2026, for Method And System For Improving Carbon Efficiency In Production Of Syngas And Synthetic Fuels.

Inventors include Christensen, Thomas, Sandahl; and Minguez, David.

The application for the patent was published on September 18, 2026, under issue no. 38/2026.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and system for enhancing carbon efficiency in syngas and synthetic fuel production. This is achieved by utilizing a syngas unit designed to use at least syngas from gasification and Fischer-Tropsch (FT) tail gas as feedstock and integrating one or more reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reactor(s) within the syngas section to recover carbon from the FT-tail gas. The syngas section can be configured to boost syngas production by processing the FT-tail gas. The RWGS reactor(s) are adapted to reduce CO2 emissions by converting CO2 in the FT-tail gas and in raw syngas back into CO and by converting CH4 in the FT-tail gas back into CO and H2. One or more gasifiers produce raw syngas (2) from a carbon-source feed, such as waste or biomass. The syngas section operates without significant amounts of renewable hydrogen from electrolysis.
