Abstract
Methanol synthesis from the hydrogenation of carbon dioxide (CO2) with green H2 has been proven as a promising method for CO2 utilization. Among the various catalysts, indium oxide (In2O3)-based catalysts received tremendous research interest due to the excellent methanol selectivity with appreciable CO2 conversion. Herein, the recent experimental and theoretical studies on In2O3-based catalysts for thermochemical CO2 hydrogenation to methanol were systematically reviewed. It can be found that a variety of steps, such as the synthesis method and pretreatment conditions, were taken to promote the formation of oxygen vacancies on the In2O3 surface, which can inhibit side reactions to ensure the highly selective conversion of CO2 into methanol. The catalytic mechanism involving the formate pathway or carboxyl pathway over In2O3 was comprehensively explored by kinetic studies, in situ and ex situ characterizations, and density functional theory calculations, mostly demonstrating that the formate pathway was extremely significant for methanol production. Additionally, based on the cognition of the In2O3 active site and the reaction path of CO2 hydrogenation over In2O3, strategies were adopted to improve the catalytic performance, including (i) metal doping to enhance the adsorption and dissociation of hydrogen, improve the ability of hydrogen spillover, and form a special metal-In2O3 interface, and (ii) hybrid with other metal oxides to improve the dispersion of In2O3, enhance CO2 adsorption capacity, and stabilize the key intermediates. Lastly, some suggestions in future research were proposed to enhance the catalytic activity of In2O3-based catalysts for methanol production. The present review is helpful for researchers to have an explicit version of the research status of In2O3-based catalysts for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol and the design direction of next-generation catalysts.

Abstract
Cu/ZnO catalysts promoted with Mn, Nb and Zr, in a 1:1:1 ration, and supported on Al2O3 (CZMNZA) and SBA-15 (CZMNZS) were synthesized using an impregnation method. The catalytic performance of methanol synthesis from CO2 hydrogenation was investigated in a fixed-bed reactor at 250 °C, 22.5 bar, GHSV 10,800 mL/g·h and H2/CO2 ratio of 3. The CZMNZA catalyst resulted in higher CO2 conversion and MeOH selectivity of 7.22% and 32.10%, respectively, despite having a lower BET surface area and pore volume compared to CZMNZS. Methyl formate is the major product obtained over both types of catalysts. The CZMNZA is a promising catalyst for co-producing methanol and methyl formate via the CO2 hydrogenation reaction.

Abstract
This review explains the various methods of conversion of Carbon dioxide (CO2) to methanol by using homogenous, heterogeneous catalysts through hydrogenation, photochemical, electrochemical, and photo-electrochemical techniques. Since, CO2 is the major contributor to global warming, its utilization for the production of fuels and chemicals is one of the best ways to save our environment in a sustainable manner. However, as the CO2 is very stable and less reactive, a proper method and catalyst development is most important to break the CO2 bond to produce valuable chemicals like methanol. Litertaure says the catalyt types, ratio and it surface structure along with the temperature and pressure are the most controlling parameters to optimize the process for the production of methanol from CO2. This article explains about the various controlling parameters of synthesis of Methanol from CO2 along with the advantages and drawbacks of each process. The mechanism of each synthesis process in presence of metal supported catalyst is described. Basically the activity of Cu supported catalyst and its stability based on the activity for the methanol synthesis from CO2 through various methods is critically described.

Abstract
One of the most crucial attributes of synthetic organic chemistry is to design organic reactions under the facets of green chemistry for the sustainable production of chemicals. Thus, due to the intensified environmental and safety concern, the need for new technologies for conducting chemical transformation has grown. In this regard, there is enormous interest in the use of heterogeneous catalysts as they generally avoid the generation of waste, require fewer toxic reagents, as well as entail easier separation and recycling of the catalyst. α,β-Unsaturated acids have been widely used in various industrial applications and have been identified as one of the most promising chemicals obtained via the Knoevenagel condensation reaction. This review aims to discuss the most pertinent heterogeneous catalytic systems such as zeolites, mesoporous silica, ionic liquids, metal oxides, and graphitic carbon nitride-based catalysts in the Knoevenagel reaction. Ultimately, this review focuses not only on the catalyst but also provides an overall idea and guide for the preparation of new catalysts with outstanding properties by looking at the chemical and engineering aspects such as the reaction conditions and the mechanisms.

Abstract
Ongoing industrialization has deteriorated the global environment. Global warming is a human-induced issue affecting the environment. The alarming increase in CO2 emissions is among the major contributors to global warming. The conversion of CO2 to methanol is an economically viable and environmentally friendly solution to mitigate its concentration. Here, hydrogenation of CO2 was studied over carbon nanofiber-based Cu/ZrO2 catalysts. Kinetics investigations were carried out for the reaction. Overall, kinetics data indicated that CO2 conversion follows a pseudo-first-order reaction. The kinetics studies were further modeled by using an artificial neural network, which supported the experimental kinetics study.

Abstract
Abstract
Chromium is well-thought-out heavy metal which is one of the enormously lethal due to its cancer-causing nature. In this study, iron oxide is used as adsorbent for chromate removal from aqueous solution as a function of pH, time, temperature, concentration of adsorbate and media dosage. The influence of pH on Cr (VI) sorption by iron oxide reveals that adsorption is significantly increased as pH is decreased from 8 to 2. The sorption rate is detected to be higher in the beginning and then it remains constant after 120 min of equilibrium time. The removal of Cr (VI) is found to be greater at higher temperature, which confirms the endothermic nature of Cr (VI) adsorption by iron oxide. Whereas, the kinetic investigations confirm that the chromate adsorption follows the pseudo second order with kinetic energy in the range of 8.4–83.7 kJ mol−1.

Abstract
Cu-ZnO-based catalysts are of importance for CO2 utilization to synthesize methanol. However, the mechanisms of CO2 activation, the split of the C=O double bond, and the formation of C-H and O-H bonds are still debatable. To understand this mechanism and to improve the selectivity of methanol formation, the combination of strong electronic adsorption (SEA) and atomic layer deposition (ALD) was used to form catalysts with Cu nanoparticles surrounded by a non-uniform ZnO layer, uniform atomic layer of ZnO, or multiple layers of ZnO on porous SiO2. N2 adsorption, H2 temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR) X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), CO-chemisorption, CO2 temperature-programmed desorption (CO2-TPD), X-ray adsorption near edge structure (XANES), and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) were used to characterize the catalysts. The catalyst activity was correlated to the number of metallic sites. The catalyst of 5 wt% Cu over-coated with a single atomic layer of ZnO exhibited higher methanol selectivity. This catalyst has comparatively more metallic sites (smaller Cu particles with good distribution) and basic site (uniform ZnO layer) formation, and a stronger interaction between them, which provided necessary synergy for the CO2 activation and hydrogenation to form methanol.
