Challenges and Role of Catalysis inCO₂Conversion to Chemicals and Fuels

The Techno-Economic Benefit of Sorption Enhancement: Evaluation of Sorption-Enhanced Dimethyl Ether Synthesis for CO2 Utilization

“…Indeed, with increasing shares of renewables in electricity generation portfolios, the electrification of industrial processes contributes to the uptake of renewable energy in industry (IEA, 2019). In addition, through the development and implementation of circular practices including the chemical recycling of carbon dioxide, industry will become an essential element of the carbonneutral economy (Centi and Perathoner, 2009;Olah et al, 2009;Ordomsky et al, 2017;SPIRE, 2020). The conversion of carbon dioxide into fuels and feedstock using electricity can thus contribute to a sustainable society (Artz et al, 2018;Detz et al, 2018;Kätelhön et al, 2019).…”

Design of core–shell titania–heteropolyacid–metal nanocomposites for photocatalytic reduction of CO2 to CO at ambient temperature

“…The CO 2 concentration may reach 500-1000 ppm and cause an average temperature increase of 1.9 C by 2100. [1][2][3][4] The carbon dioxide content in the atmosphere can be reduced using carbon capture and storage (CCS) and carbon capture and utilization (CCU). 5 An important strategy of CCU is CO 2 chemical conversion into useful products.…”

Hybrid monometallic and bimetallic copper–palladium zeolite catalysts for direct synthesis of dimethyl ether from CO2

“…The rapidly increasing CO 2 concentration in the atmosphere can be addressed on the one hand, by reducing CO 2 emissions from human activities and on the other hand, by carbon dioxide removal from the atmosphere, through carbon capture and storage (CCS) 1 and carbon capture and utilization (CCU). 2 In the CCU strategy, [2][3][4][5] CO 2 is converted to fuels and chemicals using biological, thermo-catalytic, electrocatalytic and photocatalytic routes. Dimethyl ether (DME) [6][7][8] is one of the most promising environmentally optimized alternatives to the conventional fossil fuels (gasoline or diesel fuels) due to its high cetane index (455), low emission of CO, NOx, particulates and reduced noise.…”
