Abstract

A method for predicting selective performance of an adsorbent is disclosed. The adsorbent is selected from a list of metals and/or metal cations for use in removing contaminants as thiophene derivatives in hydrocarbon feed. The metals or metal cations are identified from a list having a positive value for Erel, wherein the metal or metal cation having the largest value for Erel is the most selective adsorbent.
