Review of CO2 Adsorption Materials and Utilization Technology

Abstract

This article introduces the recent research status of CO2 adsorption materials and effective ways of CO2 resource utilization. Molecular sieves have the advantages of a large specific surface area, a wide pore size range, recyclability, and good chemical and thermal stability. Metal–organic frameworks have diverse structures and broad application prospects. The captured CO2 is converted into valuable chemicals such as acids, alcohols, hydrocarbons, and esters as raw materials. The rapid development of biomass energy utilization of CO2, with strong biological adaptability, high yield, low production cost, and low pollutant emissions, is a feasible method to reduce CO2 emissions. This article analyzes the current research status of CO2 capture, conversion into chemicals, biomass energy, and industrial utilization from the perspective of catalytic conversion.
