Abstract
Humanity's need for energy is an undeniable fact, and this reality is increasing day by day. To meet its growing energy needs, humanity has turned to fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are fuels derived from animal and plant fossils formed over millions of years. However, the excessive use of fossil fuels for energy needs has created a dangerous situation that threatens to deplete fossil fuel reserves. Furthermore, the burning of fossil fuels releases toxic emissions. These emissions cause serious health problems for living organisms and also harm the ecosystem. These gases include sulfate (SO2) and sulfur derivatives, carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide, and nitrogen oxide derivatives (NOx). This chapter focuses on catalytic techniques using nanocomposite materials for the removal of SO2 and sulfur derivatives, with detailed references to relevant sources. SO2 and sulfur gases are harmful gases released by the combustion of fossil fuels. Nanocomposite production methods include sol-gel formation, gel shaping, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and physical vapor deposition (PVD), layered production, electrospinning, mechanical and ultrasonic techniques, additive manufacturing, and melting mixture. Desulfurization processes using these methods are as follows: (i) oxidative desulfurization, photocatalytic desulfurization, and absorptive-catalytic desulfurization. All techniques are explained with references to the relevant sources. This chapter provides theoretically important information for researchers working on nanotechnological catalytic studies in desulfurization.
