ABSTRACT
Due to the increased human activities in burning of fossil fuels and deforestation, the CO2 level in the atmosphere gets increased up to 415 ppm; although it is an essential component for plant growth, an increased level of CO2 in the atmosphere leads to global warming and catastrophic climate change. Various conventional methods are used to capture and utilize CO2, among that a feasible and eco-friendly technique for creating value-added products is the CO2RR. Photochemical, electrochemical, thermochemical, and biochemical approaches can be used to decrease the level of CO2 in the atmosphere. The introduction of nano-catalysts in the reduction process helps in the efficient conversion of CO2 with improved selectivity, increased efficiency, and also enhanced stability of the catalyst materials. Thus, in this mini-review of nano-catalysts, some of the products formed during the reduction process, like CH3OH, C2H5OH, CO, HCOOH, and CH4, are explained. Among different types of metal catalysts, carbonaceous, single-atom catalysts, and MOF based catalysts play a significant role in the CO2 RR process. The effects of the catalyst material on the surface area, composition, and structural alterations are covered in depth. To aid in the design and development of high-performance nano-catalysts for value-added products, the current state, difficulties, and future prospects are provided.
