Atta:
The odor is probably caused by sulfur compounds in the kerosene and diesel oil. Give us more information. Are you talking about kerosene and diesel odors in a petroleum refinery? If so, then hydrotreating could be used to remove the sulfur compounds from the diesel. And perhaps processing the kerosene in a Merox unit might be all that the kerosene needs.
If you are talking about small quantities purchased for use in kerosene lamps or as automotive diesel, then there isn't much that you can do about the odors.

Hi,
Well actually yes, I am talking about large scale utilities. I will like to know the sources of literature for hydrotreating of diesel and treatment of kerosene. I will be grateful.

If you did a Google search on "hydrotreating" and "Merox", I am sure you will find a great deal of information. You might also contact Universal Oil Products (UOP) at Des Plaines, Illinois, USA who license, design and construct such process plants. Their web site is at www.uop.com <== click here
