<p>A sorbent composition is provided which can be used for the desulfurization of a hydrocarbon-containing fluid such as cracked-gasoline or diesel fuel. The sorbent composition contains a support component, an attrition-resistance-enhancing component, and a promoter component. The promoter component is present in a reduced valence state. Such sorbent composition can be generally prepared by a process of incorporating a support component and an attrition-resistance-enhancing component with a promoter component followed by reducing to thereby reduce the valence state of the promoter component.</p> |
