The chemical utilisation of CO2 is one of two major strategies in achieving net negative CO2 emissions mitigating the environmental and socioeconomic damage of global warming. Inspired by the ability of natural enzymes to efficiently utilise molecules like CO2, this project aims to develop original metal-based catalysts as enzyme mimics for the efficient transformation of CO2. It will deliver practical strategies to transform CO2 into value-added materials permanently removing it from the atmosphere. Project outcomes are expected to enhance industry’s capacity to use CO2 as a feedstock chemical for the production of fuels and materials, providing significant economic and environmental benefits through CO2 upcycling and recycling.

二氧化碳的化学利用是实现二氧化碳净负排放的两大战略之一，可减轻全球变暖对环境和社会经济的破坏。受天然酶有效利用CO2等分子的能力的启发，该项目旨在开发原始的金属基催化剂，作为CO2有效转化的酶模拟物。它将提供切实可行的战略，将二氧化碳转化为增值材料，永久地将其从大气中清除。预计项目成果将提高工业界将二氧化碳用作生产燃料和材料的原料化学品的能力，通过二氧化碳的升级循环和再循环提供重大的经济和环境效益。
