METHOD FOR REMOVING SULFUR COMPOUNDS FROM HYDROCARBON STREAMS

A process for removing sulfur compounds selected from mercaptans (R-SH), organic sulfides (R-S-R′), organic disulfides (R-S-S-R′) and carbonyl sulfide (COS) from a hydrocarbonaceous stream comprises an absorption step of contacting the hydrocarbonaceous stream comprising one or more sulfur compounds...

Zusammenfassung:A process for removing sulfur compounds selected from mercaptans (R-SH), organic sulfides (R-S-R′), organic disulfides (R-S-S-R′) and carbonyl sulfide (COS) from a hydrocarbonaceous stream comprises an absorption step of contacting the hydrocarbonaceous stream comprising one or more sulfur compounds with an absorbent comprising a first transition metal sulfide to bind at least some of the sulfur present in the sulfur compound or compounds in the transition metal sulfide as additional sulfur to form a second transition metal sulfide.
