Abstract

This chapter describes different desulfurization technologies used for the removal of sulfur from petroleum products or from refined products. These technologies include hydrodesulfurization and non-hydrodesulphurization such as extractive desulphurization, adsorptive desulfurization, precipitative desulphurization, oxidative desulphurization, and desulfurization by membranes. Types of reactors including batch and fixed bed reactors are discussed. The chapter also highlights some of the common mechanism to explain the desulphurization process.
