ملخص المقالة :
Hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant agent was used for desulfurization of a petroleum hydrocarbon fraction (C10-C22) with boiling range of 175-375 ℃, (light fuel oil) in the presence of acetic acid as catalyst. The oxidation was performed in an ultrasonic bath. It is found that increasing the amount of hydrogen peroxide lead to increase the oxidation rate and so desulfurization efficiency, while the amount of acetic acid has low effect on the desulfurization performance. Residence time and temperature of ultrasonic bath affect significantly on oxidation process. Sulfuric component produced by oxidation process were extracted using methanol as solvent. The number of washing has a considerable effect on the extraction of sulfuric component. So that, the increasing of the number of washing from 1 to 4 times, sulfur content of the hydrocarbon decreased from about 0.554 to 0.154 wt. %. The stability of hydrocarbon during desulfurization was also studied by comparing gas chromatograms of it before and after desulfurization. It was found that the composition of hydrocarbon fraction has no considerable change due to sulfur removal.
