Abstract: Climate change caused by greenhouse gases is receiving worldwide attention. CO 2 (carbon dioxide) emission accounts for 80% of greenhouse gas emissions. The current measures against emission of CO 2 are mainly control of emissions, sequestration and fixation, but CO 2 emission decreased by only 1.6% in Europe during the past decade. CO 2 recovery and reuse may offer new options for the greenhouse gas strategy. CO 2 recovery technology such as the amine process is economically and technically feasible for industrial-scale application, and the recovered CO 2 can be utilized for energy production, development of new energy resources, agriculture, etc. Recycling of CO 2 on a large scale is discussed in this paper.
