Study on selected metal-organic framework-based catalysts for cycloaddition reaction of co2 with epoxides: A highly economic solution for carbon capture and utilization

The level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is growing rapidly due to fossil fuel combustion processes, heavy oil, coal, oil shelter, and exhausts from automobiles for energy generation, which lead to depletion of the ozone layer and consequently result in global warming. The realization of a carb...
