“A building has integrity just like a man. And
just as seldom.” -- Ayn Rand (Russian born American Writer and Novelist,
1905-1982)
The economies of China and India are growing fast. Their energy needs are growing as well, with
all the attendant problems thereof, including desulfurization. Consequently, much research on the problem is
being published in these two countries.
For example, the Google® Scholar search string desulfurization AND (china OR
india) results in a couple of interesting articles.

Advance in Adsorptive Desulfurization
ZHOU Wei, XU Wan-zhen*, HUANG Wei-hong, LI Hui, WU Xiang-yang (School of
Environment,Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang 212013, China)
Compared with traditional hydrodesulfurization, adsorptive desulfurization which
has mild conditions, significantly efficient and financially feasible is
becoming a popular research in the trend of oil deep desulfurization. The
adsorptive desulfurization method, mechanism, absorbents and absorbents
regeneration were reviewed. According to adsorption mechanism, a series of
adsorbents such as zeolite,activated carbon,metal oxide and composite metal
oxide, clay, and research of their absorbability were introduced. Some suggestions
to further research of adsorptive desulfurization were also proposed.

Abstract
Chromium promoted sulfated zirconia (CSZ), prepared by wetness impregnation
technique, was characterized by various techniques like Fourier transform
infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron
microscopy (SEM) and Electron probe microscopic analysis (EPMA). Bulk density
and Brauner–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area of CSZ were found to be 0.996
kg/m3 and 116.2 m2/g, respectively. CSZ was further used as catalyst for the
oxidative removal of sulfur from model oil (dibenzothiophene, DBT, dissolved in
iso-octane). Optimum CSZ dose was found to be 5 g/l. The catalytic oxidation of
DBT by CSZ was found to be gradual process with optimum reaction time of 6 h.
The activation energy for DBT conversion by CSZ was found to be 3.8 kJ/mol.

If you want to keep with the latest developments in China and India, you could
do worse than attend one or both of the following conferences …
///////
New Delhi 19/02/2013 - 20/02/2013
Refining India, New Delhi 19-20 February 2013
Building on the continuing success of our Refining China conference (next year
to be held 20-21 March in Beijing; see the Refining China page for more
details), we are extending the formula to India.
If you are interested in making a presentation at one, or both, of these
conferences please submit a draft title and abstract for consideration,
indicating to which of the conferences you wish to present, or whether it's to
both.
The content of submissions should be directly relevant to conditions in the
country or countries in question. Our preferences are for case study based
papers outlining process solutions, particularly relating to energy efficiency
and in the refining of heavy crudes.
We would point out that speaking slots filled very quickly for the last
Refining China and we had to turn away a number of proposals that didn't
sufficiently meet the criteria we had set, so in order to maximise your chance
of acceptance, do, please, submit early (preferably by 14 September) and take
note of our preferences.
Submissions to: proposals@crambethallen.com
Refining India is being held in partnership with the Lovraj Kumar Memorial
Trust, a leading Indian provider of technical events in the hydrocarbon
industries since 1994.
