Abstract

The activated carbon has been consider one of most important materials in the industrial chemistry  especially after chemical and thermal modifications . In this work, an activated carbon has been prepared from dates stone via  using chemical and thermal activated approach. The study also investigated its chemical and physical properties. The activated carbon then was loaded with variety of molten salts that prepared and characterized previously. The resulted composites were  tested for  desulfurization purpose  from  preperied oil as “ model”, and, real diesel oil.  This model includes using of dibenzothiophene (DBT) as sulfur (S) as sulfur source with concentration of 1000 ppm. This model was used as blank vs real oil for comparison purposes. The investigation study was  carried out via ultraviolet equipment.
