The paper presents the key results of adsorption desulfurization of large fractional catalytic cracking gasoline. Natural bentonite, silica gel and used industrial hydrotreating catalysts (Ni-Mo/Al2O3, Co-Mo/Al2O3) were applied as adsorbents. It is shown that sulfur content in catalytic cracking gasoline in optimum conditions may be reduced from 180 ppm to 10 ppm without loss of octane number.
