Abstract

To achieve the global climate goals set out in the Paris Agreement, reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and utilizing resources have become key areas of focus within international energy technology research and development. CO2 can be converted into high-value chemicals, including hydrocarbons, alcohols and hydrocarbons, through the catalytic technology. This process can potentially address environmental issues while generating economic benefits. This paper presents a review of the principal products resulting from the catalytic conversion of CO2, together with an examination of their practical applications. These include hydrogenation of olefins, light aromatics, methanol, polyols, and synthetic bioconversion technologies. The development of catalysts with high conversion and selectivity represents a key area of current research. In the future, it will be necessary to combine physical, chemical, and biological technologies to establish an engineered heterogeneous carbon sequestration technology system to achieve the efficient conversion and utilization of CO2.
