Desulphurization of gas oil in a packed bed extractor: Optimization of operating parameters for simultaneous maximization of efficiency and yield by desirability approach
Abstract:A full factorial central composite design (CCD) method was used to design the experiments for extractive desulphurization of straight run gas oil (SRGO) containing 0.013 g/g (1.3 wt%) sulphur in a packed bed extractor using N‐N‐dimethyl formamide (DMF) as solvent. The operational parameters, namely water concentration (WC) in main solvent, solvent‐to‐feed ratio (S/F), and extraction temperature (TE) which affect the sulphur removal and yield were used as input variables in design of experiments. Considering th… Show more
