This study focuses on the application of nanostructured Mg-Al layered double hydroxide as a promising adsorbent in desulfurization of dibenzothiophene, an aromatic sulfur bearing compound from gasoil model. The Mg-Al LDH was synthesized by a co-precipitation method and characterized by FT-IR, XRD, EDX and SEM. The XRD and FT-IR approved the layered structure and crystalline form of the adsorben...

large reserves of coal in tabas region of iran are characterized by low ash and high caking index, suitable for use in metallurgy as coking coal. however, these coals cannot be gainfully utilized because of their high sulfur content. in this work, studies on desulfurization of tabas coals were carried out in a batch reactor using various reagents. the most effective reagents, fe2(so4)3 , fecl3 ...
