Catalytic Hydrogenation of Carbon Dioxide as a Method to Produce Valuable Chemicals

The aim of this review is to summarize and comparatively analyze recent reports on studying carbon dioxide conversion to methanol, dimethyl ether, and C2+ hydrocarbons, in particular, olefins, by catalytic hydrogenation. It is shown that the main approaches to providing high activity and selectivity of these processes are the targeted design of catalysts and the selection of conditions for hydrogenation processes, in particular, the use of supercritical CO2 and procedures that are alternative to conventional physicochemical methods for CO2 activation (electrocatalysis, photocatalysis).
