Elemental Carbon Products Literature Review

A summary of carbon dioxide to elemental carbon (CTEC) research and development history is given in Table K-1. Table K-1 not only lists the major technology and the major reaction conditions used for CTEC but also the structure characteristics of CTEC products. The table shading helps to cluster rows by method; blue represents thermochemical, yellow represents electrochemical, orange represents photochemical, and green represents plasmachemical processes.
