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.

The mounting global demand for energy signifies that we must depend on fossil fuels, which engenders environmental degradation and precipitates the emission of substantial quantities of sulfur oxides (SOx). Protecting themselves from environmental pollution is a top priority for many countries. Proper removal of sulfur- containing compounds from fossil fuels is becoming a major focus. Fuels such as diesel, fuel oil, and gasoline are particularly important in this regard. Fuels such as diesel, fuel oil, and gasoline are particularly important in this regard. The numerous negative consequences of traditional hydrodesulfurization (HDS) methods are what researchers focus on, and these methods are limited. Some examples of these negative effects include higher costs, the use of too much pressure and temperature, and using too much hydrogen. Scientific studies show that biosourced nanocomposite materials are good for desulfurization methods because they can reduce the potential negative consequences. Using raw materials such as microorganisms, biopolymers, and plant extracts is one of the most important ways to increase energy efficiency and eliminate chemical emissions. The large surface areas, enhanced active site homogeneity, and diverse functional groups of nanocomposite materials obtained from such biosourced raw materials make them promising candidates for use in adsorptive and oxidative desulfurization processes. Metal- metal oxide (Fe, Ni, Cu, TiO2) and carbon- based (graphene, carbon nanotube, and biochar- supported) nanocomposites are particularly preferred for achieving high sulfur removal with low energy consumption. The provision of information on the production methods, chemical properties, sulfur removal methods, and recent scientific research on biosourced nanocomposites is the purpose of this section. In addition, the environmental benefits, economic benefits, and potential roles of biosourced materials in alternative energy systems are discussed.
