A process for removing a contaminant from a hydrocarbon containing a first quantity of the at least one contaminant, including contacting the hydrocarbon with a clay packed in a column, at least a portion of the contaminant bing sorbed by the clay and forming a clay-contaminant adduct; removing the hydrocarbon from the column, the removed hydrocarbon having a second, reduced quantity of the at least one contaminant; heating the clay and the clay-contaminant adduct in the column to regenerate the clay material, the heating being carried out without removing the clay from the column; and re-using the regenerated clay material in further iterations of the process.
