摘要

The large-scale emissions of CO2 have led to a continuous rise in its concentration in the atmosphere, resulting in serious environmental and ecological problems, such as the greenhouse effect and climate change. As a result, there has been a significant increase in interest in theories, technologies, and methods related to CO2 capture, conversion, and utilization, especially in achieving “carbon neutrality.” Among various carbon capture and utilization strategies, the biological process is an attractive option for converting CO2 to valuable chemicals and fuels, offering remarkable reaction selectivity, efficiency, and mild reaction conditions. This review article reviewed and summarized various strategies for the biological conversion of CO2. Specifically, more emphasis was given to in vitro enzymatic systems and microbial electrocatalytic system. We briefly introduced the background of biological CO2 capture and utilization. Following this, the advancements in CO2 reduction through the catalysis of single and multi-enzyme cascades were reviewed. We highlighted various approaches to improve the stability and activity of enzymes and develop cost-effective and sustainable reaction systems. Furthermore, the progress and application of microbial electrocatalytic CO2 reduction were discussed. Finally, future developments and a perspective on biological CO2 conversion are envisioned.
