Abstract
Extractive-catalytic oxidative desulfurization (ECODS) of model diesel using vanadium substituted Dawson-type emulsion catalyst has been investigated for the first time. At different operational conditions, ECODS was studied using selected solvents and [cetrimonium]11P2W13V5O62 by means of Taguchi methods Under the optimized conditions (ionic liquids/oil volume ratio 1:8, 7.5 g/L catalyst, O/S mole ratio 8, T = 70 °C after 45 min) 94% of sulfur and 100% of quinoline were removed. It is worth mentioning that in the presence of catalyst, solvent/oil volume decreases by 45% while sulfur removal increases by 54% compared to extraction desulfurization.
