Nowadays, uncontrolled CO2 emissions from modern industries may directly affect the environment by increasing the level of global warming. Currently, a lot of research is being carried out to overcome the problem, such as by utilization of solar energy, biodiesel, desulfurization of coal, and others. However, these techniques are reported to have drawbacks such as expensive equipment and limited efficiency. Luckily, the developed nanotechnology has improved many processes. In this case, the potential of ionic liquid functionalized nanomaterials for CO2 capture and converting it into valuable chemicals becomes an interesting and promising topic. In this book chapter, we summarize and review the current progress on the development of ionic liquid functionalized nanomaterials for CO2 capture and conversion. © 2023 Elsevier Inc.
