Abstract
Petroleum is an essential source of energy for our daily life. However, crude oil contains various kinds of sulfur-containing compounds that will form sulfur oxides upon combustion and cause severe environmental problems. To reduce the environmental impact of petroleum energy, the desulfurization of fuels is necessary. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), an emerging class of porous materials, have shown great potential in a variety of applications. In this review, we summarize the use of MOFs in the desulfurization of fuels. The scope of this review includes MOFs and MOF-derived materials that have been applied in oxidative desulfurization and adsorptive desulfurization processes. We aim to provide an overview of the progress of MOFs in fuel desulfurization as well as shed light on the development of superior MOF-based materials in the field of desulfurization.
期刊介绍:
Topics in Current Chemistry is a journal that presents critical reviews of present and future trends in modern chemical research. It covers all areas of chemical science, including interactions with related disciplines like biology, medicine, physics, and materials science. The articles in this journal are organized into thematic collections, offering a comprehensive perspective on emerging research to non-specialist readers in academia or industry. Each review article focuses on one aspect of the topic and provides a critical survey, placing it in the context of the collection. Selected examples highlight significant developments from the past 5 to 10 years. Instead of providing an exhaustive summary or extensive data, the articles concentrate on methodological thinking. This approach allows non-specialist readers to understand the information fully and presents the potential prospects for future developments.
