Abstract

The transformation of nontoxic carbon dioxide (CO2) into fuels and valuable chemicals has become an interesting approach to address CO2 emissions and can help in addressing climate change. A promising solution lies in using solar energy to convert CO2 into useful materials, which could pave the way for a more sustainable future. Solar energy has the potential to trigger chemical reactions that enable the production of plastics and pharmaceuticals. Researchers are working on different approaches, such as photocatalysis, photoelectrochemical conversion, and microbial photoelectrochemical conversion, to transform CO2 into valuable chemicals and fuels using solar energy. These methods can reduce the environmental impact of emissions and help address climate change while also providing opportunities for the production of useful materials.
