The two hundred sixty-first call for participation in the acquisition of technology for the "attainment of technical knowledge for extraction desulfurization from heavy oil using renewable solvents" has recently been published. This project aims to improve production processes and reduce environmental pollution, supported by the country's Innovation and Prosperity Fund.
Project Details and Objectives
The main objective of this project is to achieve innovative technologies in the field of desulfurization from heavy oil, which is considered one of the significant challenges in the petrochemical and oil refining industry. Given that heavy oil is recognized as an energy source with a high sulfur concentration, the desulfurization process is of great importance. This project seeks to develop efficient and economical methods to reduce sulfur content in heavy oil.

The use of renewable solvents as an innovative method in this process can lead to reduced production costs and improved quality of final products. By reducing the sulfur content in heavy oil, not only will public health improve, but environmental pollutants will also significantly decrease.
Consequences and Technological Importance
This project will not only help improve heavy oil production processes but can also serve as a model for other industries. Currently, considering environmental requirements and global standards, petrochemical industries need to develop innovative and sustainable technologies. Therefore, achieving technical knowledge in desulfurization can be seen as an effective step towards achieving these goals.
The Innovation and Prosperity Fund, by supporting this project, aims to facilitate technological collaborations and enhance the level of technical knowledge in the country. This project can provide a suitable platform for attracting foreign investments and increasing the competitiveness of the country's oil and petrochemical industry.
