Abstract

As a carbon reduction technology in line with the national “double carbon” policy,the photothermal catalytic reduction of CO₂ is expected to contribute to the early realization of the “double carbon” goal by converting CO₂,a greenhouse gas,into important chemical fuel and industrial raw materials.Photothermal catalytic reduction of CO₂ is of great interest to researchers in the field of carbon capture and conversion because it uses surface plasmon resonance to convert light energy into heat energy,or couples light and heat energy to improve the utilization of sunlight to catalyze the efficient conversion of CO₂ into hydrocarbon fuels or industrial feedstocks under relatively mild conditions.This paper reviewed the current research progress of photothermal catalytic reduction of CO₂,introduced the latest progress of photothermal catalysts designed for CO₂ conversion reactions,including CO₂ hydrogenation to CO,CH₄,CH₃OH or C²⁺,CO₂ reforming (CRM) of CH₄,and CO₂ cycloaddition reactions,etc.Finally,it analyzed the constraints of photothermal catalytic CO₂ reduction catalysts at the present stage,and gave an outlook on their development prospects and challenges they faced.

Key words： photothermal catalysis; CO₂ reduction; catalyst; CRM; cycloaddition
