Abstract

The invention provides a process for the production of fuel from refuse, the process comprising the steps of: (a) providing refuse that has a calorific value; (b) heating the refuse so as to chemically decompose it to produce off gas that comprises carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide; and (c) contacting the off gas obtained in step (b) with incandescent carbon-based char in the presence of water, in the form of steam, and oxygen so as to produce water gas comprising hydrogen, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. Preferably the water gas is subsequently converted to alcohol, such as methanol or ethanol.
