Kukes, S

Metals contained in a hydrocarbon containing feed stream are removed by contacting the hydrocarbon containing feed stream with a phosphorous compound selected from the group consisting of phosphine, hydrocarbylphosphines, hydrocarbylphosphites, hydrocarbylphosphonates, hydrocarbylphosphates, hydrocarbylphosphine oxides, hydrocarbylthiophosphites, and hydrocarbylphosphine sulfides to convert the metals to oil insoluble compounds which can be removed from the hydrocarbon containing feed stream by conventional methods.
