“…CA is a diffusion‐limited enzyme that catalyzes the hydration of CO 2 , which is the rate‐limiting step of HCO 3 − formation from CO 2 , with a k cat of up to 4.4 × 10 6 s −1 (Vullo et al, ). By accelerating CO 2 conversion into HCO 3 − , CA can potentially reduce reaction time and energy requirement and improve the overall efficiency for CCUS processes based on mineral carbonation, electrochemical CO 2 reduction, and CO 2 absorption, all of which rely on the supply of HCO 3 − (Penders‐van Elk et al, ; Power et al, ; Qi et al, ; Srikanth et al, ).…”
