Abstract
Disclosed are methods and systems for removing a highly reactive polymer precursor such as carbonyls from a liquid hydrocarbon stream. Embodiments may disclose a method for removal of carbonyls from a liquid hydrocarbon stream comprising the steps of providing a liquid hydrocarbon stream containing carbonyls, providing a liquid bisulfite stream comprising an alkali metal bisulfite, and contacting the liquid hydrocarbon stream and the liquid bisulfite stream in a mass transfer device wherein at least a portion of the carbonyl reacts with the alkali metal bisulfite to form a solid adduct that is soluble in the bisulfite solution.
