Abstract

Abstract The continuous consumption of fossil fuels causes two important impediments including emission of large concentrations of CO2 resulting in global warming and alarming utilization of energy assets. The conversion of greenhouse gas CO2 into solar fuels can be an expedient accomplishment for the solution of both problems, all together. CO2 reutilization into valuable fuels and chemicals is a great challenge of the current century. Owing to limitations in traditional approaches, there have been developed many novel technologies such as photochemical, biochemical, electrochemical, plasma-chemical and solar thermochemical. They are currently being used for CO2 capture, sequestration, and utilization to transform CO2 into valuable products such as syngas, methane, methanol, formic acid, as well as fossil fuel consumption reduction. This review summarizes different traditional and novel thermal technologies used in CO2 conversion with detailed information about their working principle, types, currently adopted methods, developments, conversion rates, products formed, catalysts and operating conditions. Moreover, a comparison of these novel technologies in terms of distinctive key features such as conversion rate, yield, use of earth metals, renewable energy, investment, and operating cost has been provided in order to have a useful review for future research direction.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
