Abstract
• CO 2 was used as an inexpensive feedstock for various fuels and chemicals production. • Explained various utilization approaches and their mechanisms for CO 2 mitigation. • Discussed the various CO 2 conversion processes. • Current status and Scope for further research on CO 2 conversion has been discussed. Carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) is a odourless and colourless gas which plays a noteworthy role in the climate and weather changes. Different natural and anthropogenic activities induces CO 2 emission in the environment. Though CO 2 causes global warming, it acts as an essential element for photosynthesis process in plants. CO 2 can also be used as an inexpensive feedstock for the production of various fuels and chemicals. Many approaches like electrochemical, thermal, biochemical, chemo-enzymatic and photocatalytic methods are available by means of which the harmful CO 2 is captured from the environment. Similarly, via different chemical, physical and biological processes, it can be converted into useful products like fuels and chemicals. This review mainly focuses on various utilization approaches and their mechanisms for CO 2 mitigation. In addition, CO 2 conversion processes like hydrogenation, esterification, methanation, reforming, and reverse water-gas shift (RWGS) reactions, their mechanisms and their current status along with future perspectives were comprehensively discussed.
