Abstract
The emission of sulfur oxides (SOₓ) from fossil fuel combustion poses serious environment and health risks, and sustainable desulfurization technologies have become a global quality and standard development trend. Compared to conventional hydro desulfurization (HDS), adsorption desulfurization (ADS) offers a promising alternative for ultra-deep sulfur removal due to its operational simplicity, environmental friendliness, high capacity and selectivity. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), with their tunable porosity and high surface area, are particularly effective adsorbents on ADS. In this review, the recent advances on the application of MOF-based materials in ADS are summarized, along with the adsorption mechanisms, key performance factors and regeneration strategies in the major part. Moreover, the design, challenges and future directions of the MOF adsorbents are highlighted for the development of high performance, scalable desulfurization systems.
期刊介绍:
Coordination Chemistry Reviews offers rapid publication of review articles on current and significant topics in coordination chemistry, encompassing organometallic, supramolecular, theoretical, and bioinorganic chemistry. It also covers catalysis, materials chemistry, and metal-organic frameworks from a coordination chemistry perspective. Reviews summarize recent developments or discuss specific techniques, welcoming contributions from both established and emerging researchers.
The journal releases special issues on timely subjects, including those featuring contributions from specific regions or conferences. Occasional full-length book articles are also featured. Additionally, special volumes cover annual reviews of main group chemistry, transition metal group chemistry, and organometallic chemistry. These comprehensive reviews are vital resources for those engaged in coordination chemistry, further establishing Coordination Chemistry Reviews as a hub for insightful surveys in inorganic and physical inorganic chemistry.
