Utilization of Carbon Dioxide through Nonthermal Plasma Approaches

Utilization of Carbon Dioxide through Nonthermal Plasma Approaches 

1) Direct carboxylation reactions (generation of the moieties C-COOH, C-COOR, N-COOR, N-CO-N, -NCO). 

4) Direct on-site liquefied natural gas to liquid (GTL) conversion. 

Recently, unusual plasma chemistry (especially nonthermal plasma) has attracted much attention with regards to the effective and efficient activation of C02. These nonthermal plasma approaches can even be performed at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. As nonthermal plasmas have also been successfully applied for the removal of NO and S02 from flue gases, an increasing number of investigations has been conducted to examine their use for C02 utilization. Nonthermal plasma approaches for C02 utilization were first
