Description Hydrodesulphurisation (HDS) in petroleum refining for the production of clean transportation fuels, partlcularty high speed diesel fuel, is increasingly becoming Important the world over. In view of the recent environmental regulations limiting the amount of sulphur In diesel fuels to less than 0.05 wt.% closer attention Is being paid to the technology of deep desulphurisation particularlĀ„ the catalyst in this process. In our country too, directive has been issued for restricting sulphur content in diesel fuel to 0.25 wt.% max. by April 1999 with a provision to meet 0.05% max. by the turn of the century. For developing better deep HDS catalyst, it is necessary to know the nature of sulphur compounds present in the distillate/streams making the diesel fuels and their reactivity. Various classes of sulphur compounds which have been characterised in the high boiling fractions making diesel fuels are benzothlophenes, dibenzothiophenes, napthanothiophenes, naphthenobenzothiophenes etc. The reactivity of these classes of sulphur compounds as well as the effect of the alkyl substituents on the same have also been studied.
