Abstract

Deep desulfurization via π-complexation adsorption is a promising method for the purification of diesel. Activated carbon (AC) with copper and palladium deposited on their surfaces were investigated as adsorbents to remove benzothiophene (BT) from model diesel fuel. The adsorbents were prepared by ultrasonic-assisted impregnation and characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy with Energy-dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (SEM/EDS). The adsorption isotherms of BT were also investigated.
