Description

With climate change concerns becoming increasingly urgent, there is a growing global emphasis on sustainability, including a focus on reducing carbon footprints and using green chemicals. While chemical manufacturers across regions are looking for new ways to minimize carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from their facilities, there is also rising demand for CO2 as a raw material.

This study covers the various technologies that allow the synthesis of chemicals from CO2, focusing on approaches that transform captured CO2 into commodity, fine, and specialty chemicals. It examines the industry efforts to increase the commercial potential of these technologies, identifying 7 pivotal approaches to converting CO2 into chemicals: thermal conversion, electrochemical conversion, catalytic copolymerization, enzymatic conversion, mineralization, plasma catalysis, and photo-assisted conversion. The study highlights the factors driving and restraining the adoption of these technologies and offers an overview of the patents in this domain. It provides a detailed regional analysis, covering information on trends, research and development (R&D) efforts, and stakeholder initiatives, along with a cost analysis of CO2 utilization for various chemical products. The growth opportunities emerging from the shifts in this space have also been identified for market players and stakeholders to leverage.
