AB - With the atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide being above 400 ppm today, marking the highest they have been in the past 400,000 years, significant pushes have being made to curb anthropogenic carbon emissions. While CO2 capture and subsequent geologic sequestration address CO2 emission problems, there is growing interest to monetize CO2 through value‐added carbon utilization. Using fossil‐fuel‐based CO2 as a raw carbon material and supplementing renewable energy to produce value‐added chemicals could potentially generate profits to subsidize the costs of CO2 capture and storage.This Special Issue of Energy Technology addresses many technologies for the utilization of carbon dioxide, ranging from thermal, electrochemical, and photochemical to biological conversion methods. Broad perspectives and feasibility studies on the field are also reviewed. Much of the work in this issue originated from presentations at the “CO2 Utilization” Symposium held at the 251st American Chemical Society National Meeting & Exposition in San Diego, California, in March 2016.Coupling carbon dioxide capture and utilization may yield synergistic benefits. Al‐Mamoori et al. provide a perspective on the status of CO2 capture technologies, how the captured CO2 can be utilized, and how integrating these two activities can be beneficial. The use of polyethylenimine for CO2 capture and separation is reviewed by
