“…The electronic state and steric configuration of the active center in the catalyst can determine the type of intermediates produced and the adsorption energies in possible competing reactions; thus, they have been regarded as the keys to promoting acetic acid yields. For instance, NiSe 2 has been reported as an efficient electrocatalyst due to its stabilizing effect on *CO intermediate, leading to the formation of acetic acid, 81 while some amount of C 2 by‐product, ethanol, is also produced. Recently, different Cu‐containing catalysts such as Mo 8 @Cu/titannium dioxide nanotube arrays, meso‐tetra(4‐carboxyphenyl)porphyrinic/Cu(OH) 2 and conducting COF with Cu isolated sites are proven as excellent catalysts 144–146 .…”

The increase in anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions has exacerbated the deterioration of the global environment, which should be controlled to achieve carbon neutrality. Central to the core goal of achieving carbon neutrality is the utilization of CO2 under economic and sustainable conditions. Recently, the strong need for carbon neutrality has led to a proliferation of studies on the direct conversion of CO2 into carboxylic acids, which can effectively alleviate CO2 emissions and create high‐value chemicals. The purpose of this review is to present the application prospects of carboxylic acids and the basic principles of CO2 conversion into carboxylic acids through photo‐, electric‐, and thermal catalysis. Special attention is focused on the regulation strategy of the activity of abundant catalysts at the molecular level, inspiring the preparation of high‐performance catalysts. In addition, theoretical calculations, advanced technologies, and numerous typical examples are introduced to elaborate on the corresponding process and influencing factors of catalytic activity. Finally, challenges and prospects are provided for the future development of this field. It is hoped that this review will contribute to a deeper understanding of the conversion of CO2 into carboxylic acids and inspire more innovative breakthroughs.

“…Recently, Saxena et al reported copper selenide [49] and cobalt telluride [50] that are able to reduce CO 2 to C2 products, such as acetic acid, with greater than 80% Faradaic efficiency (FE) and 75% selectivity at a low applied potential. In a nickel selenide electrocatalyst system, the selectivity of the product can be controlled by the applied potential, and an FE of over 98% can be achieved for acetic acid at lower applied potential [51]. By fine tuning the CO intermediate adsorption energy on the active site using a bimetal copper cobalt selenide electrocatalyst, an FE of 100% towards C2 products such as ethanol and acetic acid was achieved [52].…”

Innovative carbon capture technologies that capture CO2 from large point sources and directly from air are urgently needed to combat the climate crisis. Likewise, corresponding technologies are needed to convert this captured CO2 into valuable chemical feedstocks and products that replace current fossil-based materials to close the loop in creating viable pathways for a renewable economy. Biocatalytic membranes that combine high reaction rates and enzyme selectivity with modularity, scalability, and membrane compactness show promise for both CO2 capture and utilization. This review presents a systematic examination of technologies under development for CO2 capture and utilization that employ both enzymes and membranes. CO2 capture membranes are categorized by their mode of action as CO2 separation membranes, including mixed matrix membranes (MMM) and liquid membranes (LM), or as CO2 gas–liquid membrane contactors (GLMC). Because they selectively catalyze molecular reactions involving CO2, the two main classes of enzymes used for enhancing membrane function are carbonic anhydrase (CA) and formate dehydrogenase (FDH). Small organic molecules designed to mimic CA enzyme active sites are also being developed. CO2 conversion membranes are described according to membrane functionality, the location of enzymes relative to the membrane, which includes different immobilization strategies, and regeneration methods for cofactors. Parameters crucial for the performance of these hybrid systems are discussed with tabulated examples. Progress and challenges are discussed, and perspectives on future research directions are provided.

Carbon nanotube-encapsulated nickel selenide composite nanostructures were used as nonenzymatic electrochemical sensors for dopamine detection. These composite nanostructures were synthesized through a simple, one-step, and environmentally friendly chemical vapor deposition method, wherein the CNTs were formed in situ from pyrolysis of a carbon-rich metallo-organic precursor. The composition and morphology of these hybrid NiSe 2 -filled carbon nanostructures were confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction, Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy images. Electrochemical tests demonstrated that the as-synthesized hybrid nanostructures exhibited outstanding electrocatalytic performance toward dopamine oxidation, with a high sensitivity of 19.62 μA μM −1 cm −2 , low detection limit, broad linear range of 5 nM−640 μM, and high selectivity. The synergistic effects of enhanced electrochemical activity of nickel selenide along with the enhanced conductivity of carbon nanotubes led to the high electrocatalytic efficiency for these nanostructured composites. The high sensitivity and selectivity of this nanostructured composite could be exploited to develop simple, selective, and sensitive electrochemical sensors to detect and quantify dopamine in human tear samples with high reliability. This nanotube-encapsulated sensor, hence, paves the way for discoveries in the development of dopamine sensors with low cost and high stability, which can be used for noninvasive dopamine detection in peripheral bodily fluids.
