Abstract:
1. A desulfurization adsorbent comprising,: 1) from about 5 to about 35 wt % of alumina, 2) from about 3 to about 30 wt % of silica, 3) from about 10 to about 80 wt % of at least one oxide of metal selected from Groups IIB and VB, 4) from about 3 to about 30 wt % of at least one metal accelerant selected from Groups VIIB and VIII, and 5) from about 0.5 to about 10 wt % of at least one oxide of metal selected from Groups IA and IIA, based on the total weight of the adsorbent; wherein oxide of metal selected from Groups IA and IIA has a uniform distribution of metal in the entire adsorbent, and wherein the silica of component 2) is not the source of the at least one oxide of metal selected from Groups IA and IIA of component 5).
