An experimental study was conducted to investigate the extraction of oxidized sulfur compounds from gas oil. Solvents used for this purpose included acetone, acetonitrile, methanol and propanol. The effect of solvent concentration, solvent to gas oil ratio, temperature, time and number of stages was studied. To select the best solvent and conditions for extraction, two criteria were considered: high desulfurization and more hydrocarbon recovery. Results showed that extraction time and temperature have no significant effect. Methanol for low ability of extraction of oxidized sulfur compounds and propanol for low hydrocarbon recovery were excluded from further experiments. After the tests, the optimum conditions for extraction were determined to be 85% acetone, solvent/feed ratio of 1, two stages extraction in ambient temperature and enough time for mixing. In this condition 85% of sulfur compounds of gas oil containing 1,670 ppmw S were separated and 95% of gas oil was recovered.
