Desulfurization Reactions Induced by Transition Metal Surfaces

  • Chapter
Surface Reactions

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Surface Sciences ((SSSUR,volume 34))

Abstract

Catalytic desulfurization reactions are of extreme industrial importance due to the need for upgrading fossil fuel feedstocks with a high sulfur content. Sulfur must be removed from fuel because SO x combustion products contribute to acid rain and sulfur renders “catalytic converters” in automobile engines ineffective. Fundamental studies of desulfurization reactions induced on single-crystal metal surfaces under ultrahigh vacuum conditions are the focus of this chapter. There have been many excellent studies of desulfurization reactions under well-defined conditions which we use here to establish several general features of this class of surface reactions. While we have attempted to include all of these studies, some fine work has most certainly been overlooked and we apologize in advance for our oversight.
