Abstract
Abstract An oxidative desulfurization process for model light oil over Ti-MWW was investigated. Benzothiophene and dibenzothiophene are oxidized to their corresponding sulfoxides and sulfones, which can be removed by extraction using acetontrile. The conversion of benzothiophene and dibenzothiophene is 100% and 95%, respectively, at 343 K. The effect of solvent was also studied. Under the same conditions, the conversion of benzothiophene in three solvents decreases in the order acetonitrile > methanol > water.
