dc.description.abstractThis work presents the study of the adsorption affinity of biobased adsorbent prepared by pyrolysis of rice husks (PRH) toward thiophene (T), benzothiophene (BT) and dibenzothiophene (DBT) in single and mixed solutions in a batch mode using a model fuel and real diesel. A degree of desulfurization higher than 40 % is observed in case of an initial sulfur concentration in the fuel not higher than 1000 ppm. The adsorption selectivity of PRH from single solutions of the three aromatic sulfur heterocycles (ASHs) decreases following the line: T > BT > DBT. The theoretical equilibrium adsorption capacity of PRH in regard to the three sulfur compounds adsorption is determined using the adsorption isotherms of Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevich and Temkin. The calculated values of the thermodynamic parameters, such as the Gibbs energy, ΔG0, the entropy, ΔS0, and the enthalpy, ΔH0, indicate that the adsorption in PRH-ASHs-fuel system proceeds at normal and high temperature values through simultaneous physical and chemical interactions.
