Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009039828A2] The invention relates to a method for reducing the organic sulfur content in a liquid fuel containing sulfur, wherein the fuel containing sulfur is first placed in contact with a gas comprising hydrogen in a presaturator, and the hydrogen-enriched liquid fuel is subsequently brought into contact with a suitable adsorbent in a reactor, said adsorbent being able to adsorb at least a portion of the sulfur or sulfur compound from the fuel on the surface. Contact with the adsorbent may advantageously occur not only at temperatures around 400 °C, but also at moderate temperatures down to room temperature because the use of liquid fuel provides a very good contact between the fuel and the surface of the adsorbent, and therefore for the reduction of the sulfur content.
