Comprehensive review demonstrates enhancing product value by integrating C1 compounds with waste recycling and renewable energy.
The pressing necessity to tackle environmental issues and enhance resource efficiency has intensified the focus on the green and clean energy conversion of C1 compounds and solid waste, such as biomass and waste plastics. This article systematically reviews the recent co-conversion of C1 compounds and solid waste, and their coupling with renewable energy, illustrating the mechanisms of biocatalysis and chemical catalysis (including pyrolysis, photocatalysis, and electrocatalysis) involved in these co-conversion processes. Analysis of synergistic pathways revealed the potential of C1 compounds to enhance product value and improve reaction selectivity. This review highlights the critical role of renewable energy integration, which supplies clean power and reduces the carbon footprint of reactions. Finally, this article outlines future research directions in aspects such as reaction process innovation, catalyst design, and system integration, offering a theoretical framework for advancing the high-value utilization of carbon resources towards achieving carbon neutrality. Facing the green carbon cycle, this article reviews the technical paths for the synergistic conversion of C1 compounds and solid wastes, and highlights the interaction mechanism between biomass and waste plastics. This article explores the prospects of systematic coupling with renewable energy. • Comprehensive review of synergistic conversion of C1 compounds and solid wastes • Systematic summary of biocatalysis and chemical catalysis in co-conversion • In-depth discussion on renewable energy integration to reduce carbon footprint
