Carbon Dioxide as a Building Block for Organic Intermediates: An Industrial Perspective

  • Chapter
Carbon Dioxide Recovery and Utilization

Abstract

In this Chapter, current industrial processes will be described, in which carbon dioxide is used as a C1 building block for the syntheses of organic intermediates. So, other interesting processes which also use carbon dioxide, but not as a synthetic building block (e.g., as a cheap neutralising agent in the textile industry, or as a solvent, or as a blowing agent for plastic foams, or in the production of inorganic carbonates), will not be further mentioned.
