Production of ultra-deep sulfur-free diesels using a sustainable catalytic system based on UiO-66(Zr)

abstract

The porous metal-organic framework UiO-66(Zr) obtained via non modulated synthesis, has revealed to be a notable heterogeneous catalyst, enabling extremely fast and very efficient desulfurization of a multicomponent model diesel and also a real diesel fuel.
