Optimization of extractive desulfurization of Malaysian diesel fuel using response surface methodology/Box-Behnken design

Systematic experiments were conducted to investigate the most appropriate extraction conditions for sulfur reduction. Initial extraction studies showed that DMF was the most potentially effective solvent. The influence of DMF to diesel ratios, extraction times and temperatures, addition of co-solven...
