Conversion of Carbon Dioxide into Hydrocarbons Vol. 1 Catalysis

This book presents the catalytic conversion of carbon dioxide into various hydrocarbons and other products using photochemical, electrochemical and thermo-chemical processes. Products include formate, formic acid, alcohols, lower and higher hydrocarbons, gases such as hydrogen, carbon monoxide and syngas.

Conversion of carbon dioxide using lead/composite/oxides electrodes into formate/formic acid.- Chapter 3. Thermo-chemical conversion of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide by reverse water-gas shift reaction over ceria-based catalysts.- Chapter 4. Photocatalytic systems for carbon dioxide conversion to hydrocarbons.- Chapter 5. Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide to methanol using metal-organic frameworks and non-metal-organic frameworks catalysts.- Chapter 6.
