Nanopowder nickel aluminate for benzothiophene adsorption from dodecane

Nickel aluminate reduced in hydrogen for 3 h at 500ºC was studied for desulfurization of model fuel comprised of dodecane spiked with benzothiophene (300 ppmw S). The nanopowder adsorbent was synthesized using combustion chemical vapor condensation, which created nickel aluminate with a BET specific...
