Aims & Scope
The Journal of CO2 Utilization offers a single, multi-disciplinary, scholarly platform for the exchange of novel research in the field of CO2 re-use for scientists and engineers in chemicals, fuels and materials. The emphasis is on the dissemination of leading-edge research from basic science to the development of new processes, technologies and applications. This includes CO2 as a feedstock in the chemical, energy and materials sectors, and utilization in general to help minimize environmental impact. The Journal of CO2 Utilization publishes original peer-reviewed research papers, reviews, and short communications, including experimental and theoretical work, and analytical models and simulations. The coverage includes, but is not limited to: Materials for CO2 activation and adsorption Heterogeneous and homogeneous catalytic reactions involving CO2 CO2 conversion to generate synthetic fuels, polymers, organic carbonates, and intermediate products. Supercritical CO2 utilization in natural product extraction, catalysis and separation Use of CO2 as an oxidant Electrochemical conversion of CO2 Photo-electrochemical, photo-catalytic and photochemical conversion of CO2 Biological conversion of CO2 Integrated processes for CO2 conversion and reduction
