Every once in a while we stumble on a gold mine … like the 18th Annual Saudi-Japan Symposium: Catalysts in Petroleum Refining & Petrochemicals, held by the KFUPM Research Institute, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, November 16-17, 2008.
The papers constituting the proceedings of the symposium are available for download at http://www.kfupm.edu.sa/catsymp/Proceedings-18th.htm. Most are full text, although some are abstracts or PPT presentations.
Much of the material presented pertains directly to desulfurization.
And if you collect contact information of experts in various fields, (as we do) you will find that kind of information here, as well.
Eureka!
