Abstract
Process of gasoline sweetening by adsorption on alumna loading with metallic ions were studied. Several different metal ions were carried on alumna by microwave irradiation, and suitable ions were selected according to the effects of removing mercaptan and adsorptive velocity. In the range of concentrations of mercaptan, the static adsorption equilibrium data were measured and fitted in linear relationship. Dynamic adsorption curves were also measured, which could give necessary basic data to the design of industrial adsorption process. Experimental results show that the adsorbent can remove the mercaptan and other sulfide from gasoline and the method will advance the gasoline sweetening technology.
