Applications of supercritical technologies to CO2 reduction: Catalyst development and process intensification

Interfacial photoreduction of supercritical CO2 by an aqueous catalyst.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions currently represent a major concern. Accordingly, the electrochemical reduction of CO2 is a reaction of major relevance and also of great challenges. Considering the redox potentials required for reducing CO2, multi-electron-transfer, multiproton reactions are the most viable pathways for driving CO2 reduction. [2] Nonetheless, catalysts must be employed to overco...
