For many years, capturing, storing or sequestering CO2 from concentrated emission sources
or from air has been a powerful technique for reducing atmospheric CO2. Moreover, the use …

It is widely accepted that for electric vehicles to be accepted by consumers and to achieve
wide market penetration, ranges of at least 500 km at an affordable cost are required …

CO2 conversion covers a wide range of possible application areas from fuels to bulk and
commodity chemicals and even to specialty products with biological activity such as …

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) community has been struggling over the past few
decades to demonstrate the economic feasibility of CO 2 sequestration. Nevertheless, in …

With the progressive increase in atmospheric CO2 over the years and owing to its potential
environmental threat, researchers have focused their attention on the fruitful utilization of …

In 2010 the emission of CO2 from anthropic activities amounted at ca. 30000 Mt, 43% of
which was from coal combustion, 36% from oil, and 20% from gas. 1 Growth of consumption …

The need to reduce the emission of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere is pushing toward
the use of “renewable carbon”, so to avoid as much as possible burning “fossil carbon”. It …

The direct synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) from CO 2 and methanol is a green
synthetic route owing to nontoxicity of starting materials and synthetic process. DMC is …

In this paper, three of the leading options for large scale CO2 capture are reviewed from a
technical perspective. We consider solvent-based chemisorption techniques, carbonate …

The increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide is linked to climate changes; hence there is an
urgent need to reduce the accumulation of CO2 in the atmosphere. The utilization of CO2 as …
