FIELD: chemistry.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a process for removing elemental sulfur from a hydrocarbon fluid, comprising treating the hydrocarbon fluid with an adsorbent, the adsorbent being selected from the group consisting of alumina, activated alumina, activated gamma-alumina and molecular sieves, removing a substantial portion of elemental sulfur from a portion of the hydrocarbon fluid excluding the produced hydrogen sulphide, by using an adsorbent, regenerating the adsorbent using a circulating gas stream, comprising a portion of a hydrocarbon fluid excluding produced hydrogen sulphide.
EFFECT: invention provides a method for removing elemental sulfur from a hydrocarbon fluid.
