As regulations push the fossil
fuel industry toward increasing standards of eco-friendliness and
environmental sustainability, desulfurization (the removal of SO2 from
industrial waste byproducts) presents a new and unique challenge that
current technology is not equipped to address. Advances in
nanotechnology offer exciting new opportunities poised to revolutionize
desulfurization processes.
Applying Nanotechnology to the Desulfurization Process in Petroleum Engineering
explores recent developments in the field, including the use of
nanomaterials for biodesulfurization and hydrodesulfurization. The
timely research presented in this volume targets an audience of
engineers, researchers, educators as well as students at the
undergraduate and post-graduate levels.
