Adsorption behaviors of thiophene, benzene, and cyclohexene on FAU zeolites: Comparison of CeY obtained by liquid-, and solid-state ion exchange

- Compared the performance of CeY obtained by liquid-, and solid-state ion exchange.
- Strong Brönsted acids are unfavorable for the selective adsorption desulfurization.
- Strong chemical adsorption or protonization of thiophene and cyclohexene occurs.
- The nature of the influence from aromatics is competitive adsorption.
- Oligomers of olefins hinder the adsorption of sulfur compounds.
