Coal generation is one of the main sources of carbon dioxide emissions and makes a significant contribution to global climate change. In general, to curb global warming and to transition to a carbon-neutral economy, it is urgent to develop and improve methods for capturing and utilizing carbon dioxide. The most promising processing methods are those of catalytic conversion of CO₂ into valuable chemical products. This article discusses methods of CO₂ utilization, including synthesis reactions of low-molecular compounds (HCOOH, CO, H₂CO, CH₃OH, CH₄) and reactions to obtain high-molecular organic substances (carbamates RR'NCOOR'', carbonates (RO)₂CO, carboxylates RCOOH). The results of research on the creation of a number of effective nanosized catalysts for these processes are presented.
