Reducing CO2 emissions is crucial for the future survival of the planet and the demand for innovative technologies to capture and reduce CO2, focusing on global net-zero carbon emissions is...

The need for effective and adaptive technologies for carbon dioxide (CO2) mitigation targeting global net‐zero carbon emissions is critically growing. Hence, innovative technologies for CO2 reduction have attracted worldwide interest from scientific research communities. The use of liquid metals for the conversion of CO2 into carbon or solid carbonaceous products has gained increasing attention in recent years due to their high activity and resistance to coking. Here, a facile approach for the reduction of CO2 to solid carbon using liquid Mg at and near room temperature, and atmospheric pressure is presented. In this process, magnesium (Mg) plays a major role in driving the dissociation of CO2 to its elemental constituents, carbon and oxygen. During the reaction process, Mg ions dissolve in gallium (Ga) liquid metal alloy, diffuse to the gas–liquid interface, and reduce CO2 to carbon while undergoing an oxidation reaction. The electrochemical method ensures a sustainable cyclic process by reducing Mg and Ga ions back to their metallic counterpart. The use of liquid metal alloys for CO2 reduction reactions can enable to achieve CO2 capture and storage at room temperature, setting a new foundation for the future exploration of efficient CO2 mitigation issues.
