Carbon dioxide (CO2) is today at the centre of attention of the scientific and technological world because of its potential role in climate change, which is supposed to be, directly or indirectly, caused by the growing level of CO2 in the atmosphere. Policy-makers work out solutions ranging over a large number of options, including carbon capture and disposal or sequestration (CCS) or carbon capture and utilization (CCU).The conversion of CO2 into added-value products (chemicals, materials, fuels) is today one of the most widespread research themes, and the scientific literature presents a large number of reviews, papers and books that disclose the CO2 chemistry or, in general, utilization. Industry is also much involved, as witnessed by the ever growing number of industrial patents and new processes. Despite the large number of volumes published, an organized collection of information about the mechanisms concerning the many reactions in which CO2 is involved does not exist. However, this book has been designed with the precise idea of filling the gap and collecting the knowledge we have of the reaction mechanism of CO2 conversion when it is used either as a building block for the production of chemicals and materials, or as a carbon source for C1 and Cn energyrich molecules.
