The notion of an almost Krull domain is extended to rings satisfying a polynomial identity. Some general structural results are obtained. We also prove that skew polynomial rings R [ X, σ] remain almost Krull if R is an almost Krull ring. Finally, we study when semigroup ring R[S] are almost Krull rings, in the case when the group of quotients of S has the ascending chain condition on cyclic subgroups. An example is included to show that the general (semi-) group ring case is much more difficult to deal with.
