Desulfurization of FCC gasoline by using spiral wound pervaporation module: Removal of different types of sulfur containing species
Abstract(#br)In last decade, pervaporation has been recognized as a promising novel process for desulfurization of FCC (Fluidized Catalytic Cracking) gasoline. This study deals with the comparison of the removal of different types of sulfur containing species by a spiral wound pervaporation module. For this, different binary systems containing 2-methyl thiophene, 1-butanethiol and diethyl sulfide as solute and n -heptane as solvent are selected as model gasoline. Results reported in our previous study on n -heptane/thiophene systems are also included in the analysis.
