Abstract

A process is disclosed for removing mercaptans from highly olefinic feed streams by extraction with an aqueous alkaline solution. The aqueous solution is preferably regenerated by oxidation of extracted mercaptans to disulfides. The invention employs two extraction steps performed on the aqueous solution to limit the passage of olefins or acetylenes into the mercaptan conversion zone and to limit the passage of mercaptans and/or oxygenates into the primary extraction zone.
