In this work, a series of supported manganese catalyst has been synthesized and utilized in oxidative desulfurization to remove 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene (4,6-DMDBT), dibenzothiophene (DBT) and thiophene. The influences of catalyst parameters were investigated including manganese precursors, mang...
