Liquid-Phase Sulfur Sorbent
IntraMicron has also developed sorbents designed to remove sulfur from liquid fuels such as LPG, gasoline, and jet fuels at room temperature. As a milestone for liquid fuel desulfurization, these sorbents provide the following advantages:
1.
2.
3.
4.
High sulfur removal capacity (6~15 mg sulfur/g of adsorbent) for jet fuels, perhaps highest among regenerative adsorbents previously developed
​​
Ease of regeneration, which requires only air and low temperature heat and no special regeneration media (e.g. sulfur free hydrocarbons, high-purity gas)
​​
Negligible pressure drop while on stream because of a much larger particle size than other previous formulations
​​
Low cost due to the use of well dispersed, low concentration silver on TiO , which precludes the use of precious metals or specially prepared supports.
