Dispersion-free reactive extraction of thiol compounds from high-sulfur-contained naphtha products into alkali solutions has been studied in a cellulose microporous hollow fiber membrane contactor. A steady extraction was achieved under a long-term operation of 1 month. The constant partition coef...
