Abstract
Elevated levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere and the diminishing reserves of fossil fuels have raised profound concerns regarding the resulting consequences of global climate change and the future supply of energy. Hence, the reduction and transformation of CO2 not only mitigates environmental pollution but also generates value-added chemicals, providing a dual remedy to address both energy and environmental challenges. Despite notable advancements, the low conversion efficiency of CO2 remains a major obstacle, largely attributed to its inert chemical nature. It is imperative to engineer catalysts/materials that exhibit high conversion efficiency, selectivity, and stability for CO2 transformation. With unparalleled precision at the atomic level, atomic layer deposition (ALD) and molecular layer deposition (MLD) methods utilize various strategies, including ultrathin modification, overcoating, interlayer coating, area-selective deposition, template-assisted deposition, and sacrificial-layer-assisted deposition, to synthesize numerous novel metal-based materials with diverse structures. These materials, functioning as active materials, passive materials or modifiers, have contributed to the enhancement of catalytic activity, selectivity, and stability, effectively addressing the challenges linked to CO2 transformation. Herein, this review focuses on ALD and MLD's role in fabricating materials for electro-, photo-, photoelectro-, and thermal catalytic CO2 reduction, CO2 capture and separation, and electrochemical CO2 sensing. Significant emphasis is dedicated to the ALD and MLD designed materials, their crucial role in enhancing performance, and exploring the relationship between their structures and catalytic activities for CO2 transformation. Finally, this comprehensive review presents the summary, challenges and prospects for ALD and MLD-designed materials for CO2 transformation.

Abstract
Cr2 O3 was applied to study the modification of In2 O3 based catalysts for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol reaction. Combined with X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), etc., the structure of the catalysts was characterized. The reaction performances for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol were evaluated on a stainless-steel fix-bed reactor. The results showed that solid solutions were formed for the Cr2 O3 promoted In2 O3 catalysts. The important role of electronic interaction between Cr2 O3 and In2 O3 was revealed in the hydrogenation reaction. In1.25 Cr0.75 O3 sample exhibited the highest methanol yield, which was 2.8 times higher than that of pure In2 O3 . No deactivation was observed for In1.25 Cr0.75 O3 sample during the 50 hours of reaction. The improved catalytic performance may be due to the formation of the solid solutions and the highest amount of oxygen vacancies.

Abstract
The era of considering carbon dioxide (CO2) as a waste stream has passed. New methods of utilising CO2 as a carbon feedstock are currently the focus of extensive research efforts. A fixed-bed reactor containing a commercial Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 catalyst washcoated on a Cu foam was used for the synthesis of methanol through direct CO2 hydrogenation. Catalytic activity tests in this reactor were conducted at reaction pressures of 30 and 50 bar, temperatures in the range 190–250 °C, and weight hourly space velocities (WHSV) in the range 1.125–2.925 NL gcat−1 h−1. The best reactor performance was recorded at 50 bar pressure: CO2 conversion and methanol selectivity of 27.46% and 82.97%, respectively, were obtained at 240 °C and 1.125 NL gcat−1 h−1. Increasing the WHSV to 2.925 NL gcat−1 h−1 resulted in a twofold increase in methanol weight time yield (WTY) to 0.18 gMeOH gcat−1 h−1 and a decrease in methanol selectivity to 70.55%. The results presented in this investigation provide insight into the performance of a bench-scale reactor in which mass transfer limitations are non-negligible and demonstrate that metal foams are promising catalyst support structures for CO2 hydrogenation towards methanol production.

Abstract
The catalytic hydrogenolysis of a typical model compound of mulching film waste, polyethylene, was investigated as a potential way to improve economic efficiency of mulching film recycling. Nickel-based heterogeneous catalysts are proposed for polyethylene hydrogenolysis to produce liquid hydrocarbons. Among catalysts supported on various carriers, Ni/SiO2 catalyst shows the highest activity which may due to the interactions between nickel and silica with the formation of nickel phyllosilicate. As high as 81.18% total gasoline and diesel range hydrocarbon was obtained from the polyethylene hydrogenolysis at relatively mild condition of 280 °C, and 3 MPa cold hydrogen pressure. The result is comparable to what have been reported in previous studies using noble metal catalysts. The gasoline and diesel range hydrocarbon are n-alkanes with a distribution at a range of C4-C22. The gas products are primarily CH4 along with a small amount of C2H6 and C3H8. High yield of CH4 as much as 9.68% was observed for the cleavage of molecule occurs along the alkane chain.

Abstract
The development of electrochemical catalytic conversion of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) has recently gained attention as a potentially scalable approach for both oxidation and reduction processes yielding value-added products. While the possibility of electrocatalytic HMF transformations has been demonstrated, this growing research area is in its initial stages. Additionally, its practical applications remain limited due to low catalytic activity and product selectivity. Understanding the catalytic processes and design of electrocatalysts are important in achieving a selective and complete conversion into the desired highly valuable products. In this Minireview, an overview of the most recent status, advances, and challenges of oxidation and reduction processes of HMF was provided. Discussion and summary of voltammetric studies and important reaction factors (e. g., catalyst type, electrode material) were included. Finally, biocatalysts (e. g., enzymes, whole cells) were introduced for HMF modification, and future opportunities to combine biocatalysts with electrochemical methods for the production of high-value chemicals from HMF were discussed.

Abstract
Carbon dioxide (CO2) hydrogenation to liquid fuels including gasoline, jet fuel, diesel, methanol, ethanol, and other higher alcohols via heterogeneous catalysis, using renewable energy, not only effectively alleviates environmental problems caused by massive CO2 emissions, but also reduces our excessive dependence on fossil fuels. In this Outlook, we review the latest development in the design of novel and very promising heterogeneous catalysts for direct CO2 hydrogenation to methanol, liquid hydrocarbons, and higher alcohols. Compared with methanol production, the synthesis of products with two or more carbons (C2+) faces greater challenges. Highly efficient synthesis of C2+ products from CO2 hydrogenation can be achieved by a reaction coupling strategy that first converts CO2 to carbon monoxide or methanol and then conducts a C-C coupling reaction over a bifunctional/multifunctional catalyst. Apart from the catalytic performance, unique catalyst design ideas, and structure-performance relationship, we also discuss current challenges in catalyst development and perspectives for industrial applications.

Abstract
To develop a new and efficient CO2 -to-methanol catalyst is of extreme significance but still remains a challenge. Herein, an innovative indirect two-step strategy is reported to synthesize a highly efficient capsule-structured copper-based CO2 -to-methanol catalyst (CZA-r@CZM). It consists of a structurally reconstructed millimeter-sized Cu/ZnO/Al2 O3 core (CZA-r) with intensified Cu-ZnO interactions, which is made by a facile hydrothermal treatment in an alkaline aqueous solution, and a Cu/ZnO/MgO (CZM) shell prepared by an ethylene glycol-assisted physical coating method. The CZA-r core displays 2.7 times higher CO2 hydrogenation activity with 2.0 times higher CO selectivity than the previously reported Cu/ZnO/Al2 O3 (CZA-p), whereas the CZM shell can efficiently catalyze hydrogenation of the as-formed CO from the CZA-r core to methanol as it passes through the shell. As a result, the developed capsule-structured CZA-r@CZM catalyst exhibits 2.4 times higher CO2 conversion with 1.8 times higher turnover frequency and 2.3-fold higher methanol space-time yield than the CZA-p catalyst (729.8 vs. 312.6 gMeOH kgcat -1 h-1 ). In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTs) experiments reveal that the CO2 hydrogenation reaction proceeds through a reverse water-gas shift reaction followed by a CO hydrogenation pathway via an *H3 CO intermediate. This work not only produces an efficient CO2 -to-methanol catalyst, but also opens a new avenue for designing superior catalysts for other consecutive transformations.

Abstract
Atomic layer deposition (ALD) provides a promising route for depositing uniform thin-film electrodes for Li-ion batteries. In this work, bis(methylcyclopentadienyl) nickel(II) (Ni(MeCp)2) and bis(cyclopentadienyl) nickel(II) (NiCp2) were used as precursors for NiO ALD. Oxygen plasma was used as a counter-reactant. The films were studied by spectroscopic ellipsometry, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray reflectometry, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results show that the optimal temperature for the deposition for NiCp2 was 200–300 °C, but the optimal Ni(MeCp)2 growth per ALD cycle was 0.011–0.012 nm for both precursors at 250–300 °C. The films deposited using NiCp2 and oxygen plasma at 300 °C using optimal ALD condition consisted mainly of stoichiometric polycrystalline NiO with high density (6.6 g/cm3) and low roughness (0.34 nm). However, the films contain carbon impurities. The NiO films (thickness 28–30 nm) deposited on stainless steel showed a specific capacity above 1300 mAh/g, which is significantly more than the theoretical capacity of bulk NiO (718 mAh/g) because it includes the capacity of the NiO film and the pseudo-capacity of the gel-like solid electrolyte interface film. The presence of pseudo-capacity and its increase during cycling is discussed based on a detailed analysis of cyclic voltammograms and charge–discharge curves (U(C)).

Abstract
Surface segregation and restructuring in size-selected CuNi nanoparticles were investigated via near-ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (NAP-XPS) at various temperatures in different gas environments. Particularly in focus were structural and morphological changes occurring under CO2 hydrogenation conditions in the presence of carbon monoxide (CO) in the reactant gas mixture. Nickel surface segregation was observed when only CO was present as adsorbate. The segregation trend is inverted in a reaction gas mixture consisting of CO2, H2, and CO, resulting in an increase of copper concentration on the surface. Density functional theory calculations attributed the inversion of the segregation trend to the formation of a stable intermediate on the nanocatalyst surface (CH3O) in the CO-containing reactant mixture, which modifies the nickel segregation energy, thus driving copper to the surface. The promoting role of CO for the synthesis of methanol was demonstrated by catalytic characterization measurements of silica-supported CuNi NPs in a fixed-bed reactor, revealing high methanol selectivity (over 85%) at moderate pressures (20 bar). The results underline the important role of intermediate reaction species in determining the surface composition of bimetallic nanocatalysts and help understand the effect of CO cofeed on the properties of CO2 hydrogenation catalysts.
