Abstract
The use of CO2 is critical to depress the greenhouse effect and manage environmental pollutants in an energy-efficient and economically sensible manner. This chapter analyzes different technologies categorized into direct and indirect uses with emphasis on energy and synthesized products available to date.
Furthermore, in this chapter, the potential, main drawbacks, environmental issues and applicability of each of these approaches for CO2 utilization have been discussed. A research trends analysis shows that there has been a significant increase in research on CO2 utilization, in electro-reduction and hydrogenation technologies since 2016. It seems that the catalyst and process improvement are urgently needed for the successful scale-up of CO2 conversion technology.
