Benzothiophene, Dibenzothiophene (DBT), 4-methyldibenzothiophene, and 4, 6-
dimethyldibenzothiophene are typical thiophenic compounds prevailing in diesel fuels …

Removal of sulfur species from fuels is an increasingly critical environmental issue.
Hydrodesulfurization (HDS) removes sulfur compounds, such as mercaptans and sulfides …

Due to the future specifications for sulfur content in middle distillate like diesel, a lot of
research work has been done to develop alternative methods for desulfurization. This work …

An improved desulfurization process for removing sulfur from hydro treated diesel oil based
on the oxidation of thiophenic type sulfur-containing compounds with H2O2 and acetic acid …

Oxidative desulfurization (ODS) of a synthetic diesel was carried out at mild conditions
(atmospheric pressure and 60° C) in presence of V2O5/Al2O3 and V2O5/TiO2 catalysts …

Oxidation of dibenzothiophene (DBT), 4-methyldibenzothiophene (4-MDBT), and 4, 6-
dimethyldibenzothiophene (4, 6-DMDBT) was studied using the isobutyraldehyde/molecular …

Thiophenic sulfur removal was attempted in three different modes of operation, such as
extraction, oxidation and simultaneous oxidation–extraction for a model fuel. Extraction was …

An efficient extraction–oxidation catalytic system for deep desulfurization of a model fuel was
explored. First, Mo/γ-Al2O3 catalysts were prepared using an impregnation method and …

A green extraction and catalytic oxidative desulfurization (ECODS) system composed of
simple tungsten-containing catalyst, 30 wt% H2O2, and ionic liquids was discovered …

Thiophenes are the major sulfur compounds contained in transportation fuels, and the
removal of thiophenes dictates the degree of deep desulfurization of fuels. A new …
