Abstract

Adsorptive desulphurization method used for removal of sulphur from diesel and other liquid fuels.The presence of sulphur compounds in liquid fuels is always objectionable in the world due to their harmful effects on combustion.The various sulphur compounds generally found in diesel oil are mercaptants, sulfides and aromatic ring structured compounds thiophenes. In this paper we studies the use of various adsorbents which lower the overall percentage of sulphur level from diesel. Desulphurization separates sulphur from fuel, yielding elemental sulphur fuel contains sulphur in a more concentrated solid or liquid form. Sulphur in liquid fuels is present in thiols ,mercaptants, sulfides, disulfides ,thiophenes and derivatives. The desulphurization process is essentially adsorptive process.In present work; report on the application of different adsorbents for desulphurization of various petroleum fractions.
