The invention relates to a method for treating naphtha, such as
catalytically cracked naphtha, in order to remove acidic impurities, such
as mercaptans. In particular, the invention relates to a method for
mercaptans having a molecular weight of about C.sub.4 (C.sub.4 H.sub.10
S=90 g/mole) and higher, such as recombinant mercaptans.
A invenção relaciona-se a um método para tratar a nafta, tal como nafta catalytically rachada, a fim remover as impurezas acidic, tais como mercaptans. No detalhe, a invenção relaciona-se a um método para os mercaptans que têm um peso molecular aproximadamente de C.sub.4 (C.sub.4 H.sub.10 S=90 g/mole) e mais elevado, como mercaptans recombinant.
