Deep desulfurization of transportation fuels, particularly of diesel and gasoline,has attracted considerable attention worldwide not only due to heightened interest forcleaner air but also because of the great significance for making ultra-low-sulfur fuelsfor fuel cell applications. Various techniques and adsorbents have been reported toremove sulfur compounds from commercial fuel; however further research isnecessary.
This dissertation presents our efforts to develop novel sorbents for adsorptivedesulf...
