Ring Hulls of Semiprime Homomorphic Images

We investigate connections between the right FI-extending right ring hulls of semiprime homomorphic images of a ring R and the right FI-extending right rings of quotients of R by considering ideals of R which are essentially closed and contain the prime radical P(R). As an application of our results, we show that the bounded central closure of a unital C*-algebra A contains a nonzero homomorphic image of A/K for every nonessential ideal K of A.
