The present disclosure provides integration of a CO consuming process, such as a gas fermentation process, with a CO2 to CO conversion system. The present disclosure can utilize a gaseous substrate comprising CO2 generated by an industrial process and provide one or more removal modules to remove at least one component from the gaseous substrate comprising CO2 prior to delivery to a CO2-to-CO conversion system. The present disclosure may also include one or more pressure modules, one or more CO2 concentration modules, one or more O2 separation modules, and/or water electrolysis modules. Carbon conversion efficiency is improved by recycling CO2 produced by a CO consuming process to the CO2 to CO conversion process. 本公开提供例如气体发酵工艺的CO消耗工艺与CO2到CO转化系统的集成。本公开能够利用通过工业工艺生成的包括CO2的气态底物，并且提供一个或多个去除模块，以在包括CO2的气态底物传递到CO2到CO转化系统之前从所述气态底物中去除至少一种成分。本公开还可包括一个或多个压力模块、一个或多个CO2浓度模块、一个或多个O2分离模块和/或水电解模块。通过将由CO消耗工艺产生的CO2再循环到所述CO2到CO转化工艺来提高碳转化效率。
