Provided herein are processes for desulfurization of a hydrocarbon oil. The processes (100) comprise providing a hydrocarbon oil comprising sulfur impurities (101) and mixing the oil with a phase transfer agent and a source of hypochlorite ions to provide a mixture (102). The mixture separates into an aqueous hypochlorite phase and a nonpolar oil phase (103). The hypochlorite phase may then be removed from the oil phase, and the oil phase centrifuged and separated from any precipitate, thereby providing a cleaned oil phase.

硫工艺。该工艺(100)包括提供含有
硫杂质的烃类油(101),并将该油与相转移剂和
次氯酸盐离子源混合,以提供混合物(102)。混合物分离成
次氯酸盐
水相和非极性油相 (103)。然后可将
次氯酸盐相从油相中移除,将油相离心并与任何沉淀物分离,从而得到清洁的油相。
