At this moment the major challenge for the human beings is to address uninterrupted raise in CO2 emissions and their consequences. The demands of globalization don't permit to minimize the CO2 emissions. The possible options to address issues related CO2 emissions are (a) Use of renewable energy sources (b) CO2 capture and storage (CCS) (c) CO2 capture and utilization (CCU). However, the utilization of CO2 in the production of chemicals is eco-economically advantageous. The utilization of CO2 involves the conversion of CO2 or use of CO2 as co-feed in the reaction streams. The research community is progressive to develop CO2 conversion technologies at various levels. The present review focuses on the recent trends in emission and utilization of CO2 as feed stock for catalytic production of organic carbonates which possess ample industrial applications and use of CO2 as soft oxidant in catalytic oxidative dehydrogenation reactions of hydrocarbons. Various catalytic systems for both the conversions are discussed. The approach towards CO2 emissions is changing from CO2 Capture and Storage (CCS) to CO2 Capture and Utilization (CCU). The present review focused on the utilization of CO2 as feed stock in dehydrogenation reactions and synthesis of organic carbonates using variety of catalysts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
