Abstract
Environmentally friendly electrocatalytic coupling of CO2 and N2 for urea synthesis is a promising strategy. However, it is still facing problems such as low yield as well as low stability. Here, a new carbon-coated liquid alloy catalyst, Ga79Cu11Mo10@C is designed for efficient electrochemical urea synthesis by activating Ga active sites. During the N2 and CO2 co-reduction process, the yield of urea reaches 28.25 mmol h-1 g-1, which is the highest yield reported so far under the same conditions, the Faraday efficiency (FE) is also as high as 60.6 % at -0.4 V vs. RHE. In addition, the catalyst shows excellent stability under 100 h of testing. Comprehensive analyses showed that sequential exposure of a high density of active sites promoted the adsorption and activation of N2 and CO2 for efficient coupling reactions. This coupling reaction occurs through a thermodynamic spontaneous reaction between *N=N* and CO to form a C-N bond. The deformability of the liquid state facilitates catalyst recovery and enhances stability and resistance to poisoning. Moreover, the introduction of Cu and Mo stimulates the Ga active sites, which successfully synthesises the *NCON* intermediate. The reaction energy barrier of the third proton-coupled electron transfer process rate-determining step (RDS) *NHCONH→*NHCONH2 was lowered, ensuring the efficient synthesis of urea.

Abstract
Abstract
In this study, a series of Co-based catalysts with alkali metal carbonate promoters were prepared to investigate the interrelation between promotion effect of these carbonates and catalytic performance for aniline hydrogenation to cyclohexylamine in vapour phase. The chemical promoters Li2CO3 and Na2CO3 leading to decrease in catalytic activity of cobalt catalysts for aniline hydrogenation. Catalysts with K2CO3 and Cs2CO3 loadings have practically no catalytic activity for hydrogenation of aniline. Results of TPD of aniline proved that presence of alkali metals carbonates restricts the adsorption of aniline on the surface of cobalt catalysts. Further, it was found that the addition of Na2CO3 greatly enhances the catalytic selectivity towards the cyclohexylamine and inhibits the consecutive reactions of cyclohexylamine leading to formation of by-products such as dicyclohexylamine and N-phenylcyclohexylamine.

Abstract
Tuning the coordination environments of metal single atoms (M1 ) in single-atom catalysts has shown large impacts on catalytic activity and stability but often barely on selectivity in thermocatalysis. Here, we report that simultaneously regulating both Rh1 atoms and ZrO2 support with alkali ions (e.g., Na) enables efficient switching of the reaction products from nearly 100 % CH4 to above 99 % CO in CO2 hydrogenation in a wide temperature range (240-440 °C) along with a record high activity of 9.4 molCO gRh -1 h-1 at 300 °C and long-term stability. In situ spectroscopic characterization and theoretical calculations unveil that alkali ions on ZrO2 change the surface intermediate from formate to carboxy species during CO2 activation, thus leading to exclusive CO formation. Meanwhile, alkali ions also reinforce the electronic Rh1 -support interactions, endowing the Rh1 atoms more electron deficient, which improves the stability against sintering and inhibits deep hydrogenation of CO to CH4 .

Abstract
Co4−iZniMnAlOx mixed oxides (i = 0, 0.5 and 1) were prepared by coprecipitation, subsequently modified with potassium (2 or 4 wt.% K), and investigated for direct catalytic NO decomposition, one of the most attractive and challenging NOx abatement processes. The catalysts were characterised by atomic absorption spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, Raman and infrared spectroscopy, temperature-programmed reduction by hydrogen, the temperature-programmed desorption of CO2 and NO, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, the work function, and N2 physisorption. The partial substitution of cobalt increased the specific surface area, decreased the pore sizes, influenced the surface composition, and obtained acid-base properties as a result of the higher availability of medium and strong basic sites. No visible changes in the morphology, crystallite size, and work function were observed upon the cobalt substitution. The conversion of NO increased after the Co substitution, however, the increase in the amount of zinc did not affect the catalytic activity, whereas a higher amount of potassium caused a decrease in the NO conversion. The results obtained, which were predominantly the acid-base characteristics of the catalyst, are in direct correlation with the proposed NO decomposition reaction mechanisms with NOx− as the main reaction intermediates.

Abstract
Catalytic conversion of CO2 to long-chain hydrocarbons with high activity and selectivity is appealing but hugely challenging. For conventional bifunctional catalysts with zeolite, poor coordination among catalytic activity, CO selectivity and target product selectivity often limit the long-chain hydrocarbon yield. Herein, we constructed a singly cobalt-modified iron-based catalyst achieving 57.8% C5+ selectivity at a CO2 conversion of 50.2%. The C5+ yield reaches 26.7%, which is a record-breaking value. Co promotes the reduction and strengthens the interaction between raw CO2 molecules and iron species. In addition to the carbide mechanism path, the existence of Co3Fe7 sites can also provide sufficient O-containing intermediate species (CO*, HCOO*, CO3 2*, and ) for subsequent chain propagation reaction via the oxygenate mechanism path. Reinforced cascade reactions between the reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reaction and chain propagation are achieved. The improved catalytic performance indicates that the KZFe-5.0Co catalyst could be an ideal candidate for industrial CO2 hydrogenation catalysts in the future.

Abstract
With the rapid development of industrial society and humankind’s prosperity, the growing demands of global energy, mainly based on the combustion of hydrocarbon fossil fuels, has become one of the most severe challenges all over the world. It is estimated that fossil fuel consumption continues to grow with an annual increase rate of 1.3%, which has seriously affected the natural environment through the emission of greenhouse gases, most notably carbon dioxide (CO2). Given these recognized environmental concerns, it is imperative to develop clean technologies for converting captured CO2 to high-valued chemicals, one of which is value-added hydrocarbons. In this article, environmental effects due to CO2 emission are discussed and various routes for CO2 hydrogenation to hydrocarbons including light olefins, fuel oils (gasoline and jet fuel), and aromatics are comprehensively elaborated. Our emphasis is on catalyst development. In addition, we present an outlook that summarizes the research challenges and opportunities associated with the hydrogenation of CO2 to hydrocarbon products.

Abstract
Global warming, fossil fuel depletion, climate change, as well as a sudden increase in fuel price have motivated scientists to search for methods of storage and reduction of greenhouse gases, especially CO2. Therefore, the conversion of CO2 by hydrogenation into higher hydrocarbons through the modified Fischer–Tropsch Synthesis (FTS) has become an important topic of current research and will be discussed in this review. In this process, CO2 is converted into carbon monoxide by the reverse water-gas-shift reaction, which subsequently follows the regular FTS pathway for hydrocarbon formation. Generally, the nature of the catalyst is the main factor significantly influencing product selectivity and activity. Thus, a detailed discussion will focus on recent developments in Fe-based, Co-based, and bimetallic catalysts in this review. Moreover, the effects of adding promoters such as K, Na, or Mn on the performance of catalysts concerning the selectivity of olefins and higher hydrocarbons are assessed.

Abstract
Hydrogenation of CO2 to value-added chemicals and fuels not only effectively alleviates climate change but also reduces over-dependence on fossil fuels. Therefore, much attention has been paid to the chemical conversion of CO2 to value-added products, such as liquid fuels and aromatics. Recently, efficient catalysts have been developed to face the challenge of the chemical inertness of CO2 and the difficulty of C–C coupling. Considering the lack of a detailed summary on hydrogenation of CO2 to liquid fuels and aromatics via the Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FTS) route, we conducted a comprehensive and systematic review of the research progress on the development of efficient catalysts for hydrogenation of CO2 to liquid fuels and aromatics. In this work, we summarized the factors influencing the catalytic activity and stability of various catalysts, the strategies for optimizing catalytic performance and product distribution, the effects of reaction conditions on catalytic performance, and possible reaction mechanisms for CO2 hydrogenation via the FTS route. Furthermore, we also provided an overview of the challenges and opportunities for future research associated with hydrogenation of CO2 to liquid fuels and aromatics.

Abstract
Molybdenum carbide (Mo2C) is a promising and low-cost catalyst for the reverse water−gas shift (RWGS) reaction. Doping the Mo2C surface with alkali metals can improve the activity of CO2 conversion, but the effect of these metals on CO2 conversion to CO remains poorly understood. In this study, the energies of CO2 dissociation and CO desorption on the Mo2C surface in the presence of different alkali metals (Na, K, Rb, and Cs) are calculated using density functional theory (DFT). Alkali metal doping results in increasing electron density on the Mo atoms and promotes the adsorption and activation of CO2 on Mo2C; the dissociation barrier of CO2 is decreased from 12.51 on Mo2C surfaces to 9.51−11.21 Kcal/mol on alkali metal-modified Mo2C surfaces. Energetic and electronic analyses reveal that although the alkali metals directly bond with oxygen atoms of the oxides, the reduction in the energy of CO2 dissociation can be attributed to the increased interaction between CO/O fragments and Mo in the transition states. The abilities of four alkali metals (Na, K, Rb, and Cs) to promote CO2 dissociation increase in the order Na (11.21 Kcal/mol) < Rb (10.54 Kcal/mol) < Cs (10.41 Kcal/mol) < K (9.51 Kcal/mol). Through electronic analysis, it is found that the increased electron density on the Mo atoms is a result of the alkali metal, and a greater negative charge on Mo results in a lower energy barrier for CO2 dissociation.

Abstract
The direct conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) using green hydrogen is a sustainable approach to jet fuel production. However, achieving a high level of performance remains a formidable challenge due to the inertness of CO2 and its low activity for subsequent C–C bond formation. In this study, we prepared a Na-modified CoFe alloy catalyst using layered double-hydroxide precursors that directly transforms CO2 to a jet fuel composed of C8–C16 jet-fuel-range hydrocarbons with very high selectivity. At a temperature of 240°C and pressure of 3 MPa, the catalyst achieves an unprecedentedly high C8–C16 selectivity of 63.5% with 10.2% CO2 conversion and a low combined selectivity of less than 22% toward undesired CO and CH4. Spectroscopic and computational studies show that the promotion of the coupling reaction between the carbon species and inhibition of the undesired CO2 methanation occur mainly due to the utilization of the CoFe alloy structure and addition of the Na promoter. This study provides a viable technique for the highly selective synthesis of eco-friendly and carbon-neutral jet fuel from CO2. An alloy is developed for the direct CO2 hydrogenation to jet-fuel-range hydrocarbons The selectivity of the hydrocarbons (63.5%) exceeds the theoretical maximum value The CoFe alloy is the active phase in the coupling reaction between surface carbons The CoFe alloy is a highly efficient catalyst in the presence of a sodium promoter

Abstract
There is a large worldwide demand for light olefins (C2=-C4=), which are needed for the production of high value-added chemicals and plastics. Light olefins can be produced by petroleum processing, direct/indirect conversion of synthesis gas (CO + H2) and hydrogenation of CO2. Among these methods, catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 is the most recently studied because it could contribute to alleviating CO2 emissions into the atmosphere. However, due to thermodynamic reasons, the design of catalysts for the selective production of light olefins from CO2 presents different challenges. In this regard, the recent progress in the synthesis of nanomaterials with well-controlled morphologies and active phase dispersion has opened new perspectives for the production of light olefins. In this review, recent advances in catalyst design are presented, with emphasis on catalysts operating through the modified Fischer-Tropsch pathway. The advantages and disadvantages of olefin production from CO2 via CO or methanol-mediated reaction routes were analyzed, as well as the prospects for the design of a single catalyst for direct olefin production. Conclusions were drawn on the prospect of a new catalyst design for the production of light olefins from CO2.

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
Recently, carbon dioxide capture and conversion, along with hydrogen from renewable resources, provide an alternative approach to synthesis of useful fuels and chemicals. People are increasingly interested in developing innovative carbon dioxide hydrogenation catalysts, and the pace of progress in this area is accelerating. Accordingly, this perspective presents current state of the art and outlook in synthesis of light olefins, dimethyl ether, liquid fuels, and alcohols through two leading hydrogenation mechanisms: methanol reaction and Fischer-Tropsch based carbon dioxide hydrogenation. The future research directions for developing new heterogeneous catalysts with transformational technologies, including 3D printing and artificial intelligence, are provided. Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and conversion provide an alternative approach to synthesis of useful fuels and chemicals. Here, Ye et al. give a comprehensive perspective on the current state of the art and outlook of CO2 catalytic hydrogenation to the synthesis of light olefins, dimethyl ether, liquid fuels, and alcohols.

Abstract
Due to the increasing emission of carbon dioxide (CO2), greenhouse effects are becoming more and more severe, causing global climate change. The conversion and utilization of CO2 is one of the possible solutions to reduce CO2 concentrations. This can be accomplished, among other methods, by direct hydrogenation of CO2, producing value-added products. In this review, the progress of mainly the last five years in direct hydrogenation of CO2 to value-added chemicals (e.g., CO, CH4, CH3OH, DME, olefins, and higher hydrocarbons) by heterogeneous catalysis and plasma catalysis is summarized, and research priorities for CO2 hydrogenation are proposed.
