Abstract: Carbon dioxide (CO₂) emission reduction has become a common global challenge as the global climate change issue has attracted widespread attention. China has put forward the goal of "carbon peak, carbon neutral". CO₂ capture technology, as an important CO₂ reduction method, has received more and more attention in recent years, and has been applied in a number of fields and industries, among which the adsorption method is the most widely used. A number of industries utilize the adsorption method to capture CO₂. The advantages of adsorption principle, application fields, application conditions, application methods, and the advantages of CO₂ capture technology have been discussed. Adsorption principle, application field, application conditions, application method, advantages and challenges of CO₂ adsorption and capture technology are reviewed in this review.This paper analyzes the principle of CO₂ emission in different industries, emission temperature, pressure, and gas components, and compares the advantages and disadvantages of popular adsorbents in different industries. This research can provide references for the further research and development of the application of CO₂ adsorption and capture technology.
