Plasma Technology for Carbon Dioxide Conversion

Abstract

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the major greenhouse gases that contributes to global warming and environmental variations. The increasing concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere is posing severe threats to human health and the environment. With the increasing concerns about climate change and CO2 levels, the need for advanced and effective technologies to mitigate CO2 emissions is more critical than ever. Plasma technology, with its unique features and versatile capabilities, has shown immense potential for the conversion of CO2 into valuable products and fuels. This proposed chapter aims to explore the recent advances in plasma-based CO2 conversion processes. The chapter covers the fundamental principles, plasma generation systems, reaction mechanisms, and implications of plasma technology in CO2 conversion, presenting a comprehensive understanding of this transformative field.
