β¦ Synopsis
The presence of sulfur compounds in canola oil is mainly responsible for nickel catalyst poisoning during hydrogenation. In this study, different adsorbents (alumina, alumina-silicate, diatomaceous silica and silica gel) were used in conjunction with different bleaching earths (AOCS official natural bleaching earth, G 160 from Harshaw-Filtrol and montmorillonite K10 from Aldrich Chemical Co.) to remove the three types of sulfur compounds [total sulfur (TS), h e y nickel sulfur (RS) and volatile sulfur (VS)] from canola oil. The TS content of the oil was not affected during bleaching. The AOCS bleaching earth removed 28.6-36.4% RS and 57.8-78.90/0 VS in the bleaching temperature range of 12O-15O0C. The some bleaching earth, in combination with 6 % TriSyl (micronized silicon dioxide

## Abstract A recently completed EPA study [1] confirms the deleterious effects of inhaling diesel emissions. Technology to remove sulfur from diesel fuel is known, but expensive, and results in some loss of diesel fuel production. The focus of this work is a method to remove sulfur oxides from die
