Incorporation of municipal solid wastes for the development of an efficient CO2 utilization polygeneration process

This project deals with designing an efficient polygeneration process that incorporates municipal solid waste (MSW) drying and conversion to syngas process for reducing the load on the hydrogen unit of carbon capture and utilization (CCU) processes. The main benefit of this system is the production of high-pressure steam and high-quality syngas with minimum greenhouse gas emissions. Also, the whole idea of the project is that instead of incinerating the waste with environmental impacts, convert it into a value-added product such as jet fuel.
