The experiments were designed by using Taguchi method. The design involved study of effect reaction temperature 523-598° K, space velocity LHSV (3-6) h–1 and hydrogen pressure (1-1.3) MPa while H2/oil 2 ratio was kept contestant at 50 mL/mL. Taguchi method help to results analysis in which the analysis exhibited general trend effect for controllable variables. A mathematical model was got for predicting sulfur content in final product by used Levenberg-Marquardt nonlinear regression. ER -
