The elevated level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has become a pressing concern for environmental health due to its contribution to climate change and global warming. Simultaneously, the energy crisis is a significant issue for both developed and developing nations. In response to these challenges, carbon capture, sequestration, and utilization (CCSU) have emerged as promising solutions within the carbon–neutral bioenergy sector. Numerous technologies are available for CCSU including physical, chemical, and biological routes. The aim of this study is to explore the potential of CCSU technologies, specifically focusing on the use of microorganisms based on their well-established metabolic part. By investigating these biological pathways, we aim to develop sustainable strategies for climate management and biofuel production. One of the key novelties of this study lies in the utilization of microorganisms for CO2 fixation and conversion, offering a renewable and efficient method for addressing carbon emissions. Algae, with its high growth rate and lipid contents, exhibits CO2 fixation capabilities during photosynthesis. Similarly, methanogens have shown efficiency in converting CO2 to methane by methanogenesis, offering a viable pathway for carbon sequestration and energy production. In conclusion, our study highlights the importance of exploring biological pathways, which significantly reduce carbon emissions and move towards a more environmentally friendly future. The output of this review highlights the significant potential of CCSU models for future sustainability. Furthermore, this review has been intensified in the current agenda for reduction of CO2 at considerable extends with biofuel upgrading by the microbial-shift reaction.
