Abstract

A method for removing sulfur from liquid compositions containing aliphatic or cylic organic sulfur-containing compounds, e.g., dibenzothiophene includes activating the sulfur-containing compound by oxidizing either the organic sulfur or adjacent carbon atoms in the presence of a suitable active biocatalyst (ie., microorganism, enzyme, etc.) followed by treating of the activated compound by techniques such as fluidized catalytic cracking so as to remove the sulfur therefrom.
