Proposed is a carbon dioxide capture and carbon resource recovery system for land use capable of removing carbon dioxide and recycling the captured carbon dioxide into other useful materials by capturing and converting carbon dioxide in the flue gas using a basic alkaline mixture. The carbon dioxide capture and carbon resource recovery system for land use can reduce carbon dioxide by capturing carbon dioxide in flue gas discharged from lands, such as thermal power plants, LNG, LPG, or fuel cell facilities, and by converting the collected carbon dioxide into sodium carbonate or sodium hydrogen carbonate, the collected carbon dioxide may be converted into other useful materials.
