Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Journal of CO2 Utilization focuses on the conversion and utilization of carbon dioxide (CO2) into valuable products and materials. Research encompasses chemical and biological processes for CO2 methanation, carbonation of waste materials like concrete slurry and industrial slags, and the synthesis of chemicals such as methanol, olefins, and polymers from CO2. The journal also covers CO2 capture, storage, and its role in energy systems and industrial decarbonization.
