Excerpt

Powered by the solar light as energy source, gas-phase photothermal carbon dioxide (CO2) catalysis has recently sprung up as a promising route to convert CO2 molecules into value-added chemicals, feedstocks, and fuels, profiting from the great potential to be well integrated into the existing petrochemical production system. In a recent work published in Nature energy, Cai et al. [1] reported a core–shell structure of nickel nanocrystal encapsulated into nanoporous silica (Ni@p-SiO2) for greenhouse-like photothermal catalytic CO2 hydrogenation (Fig. 1a, b), which may shed light on the rapidly growing photothermal catalysis field for a renewable solar fuels industry.
