In a desulfurization process for the removal of organosulfur compounds from a hydrocarbon fluid stream such as cracked-gasoline or diesel fuel wherein a bifunctional sorbent system is employed, surface treatment of the bifunctional sorbent during the use of same for desulfurization results in an extension of the useful life of the bifunctional sorbent prior to the regeneration and reactivation of same for further use in the desulfurization of the hydrocarbon fluid stream.

Desulfurization process

A novel circulatable sorbent material suitable for use in a transport desulfurization system for removing sulfur from a fluid stream containing sulfur and the use thereof in such a transport desulfurization system. The transport desulfurization process utilizes a circulatable particulate material containing alumina, silica, zinc oxide and a metal oxide which is contacted with a fluid stream and thereafter separated and reused with a portion being regenerated.

Provided is an improved process for removing hydrogen sulfide from fluid streams by contacting a hydrogen sulfide contaminated fluid stream with a novel fluidizable sorbent composition comprising zinc oxide, alumina and silica. Further provided is a novel method for producing a fluidizable sorbent composition containing zinc oxide, alumina and silica.
