Provided herein are processes for desulfurization of a hydrocarbon oil. The processes comprise providing a hydrocarbon oil comprising sulfur impurities and mixing the oil with a phase transfer agent and a source of hypochlorite ions to provide a mixture. The mixture separates into an aqueous hypochlorite phase and a non-polar oil phase. The hypochlorite phase may then be removed from the oil phase, and the oil phase centrifuged and separated from any precipitate, thereby providing a cleaned oil phase.

A method for removing impurities from a feedstock comprising a hydrocarbon oil is provided. The method comprises contacting the feedstock with an oxygen-containing gas under conditions effective to oxidize at least a portion of the impurities, as well as contacting the feedstock with a Lewis acid under conditions effective so that any Lewis base impurity(ies) in the feedstock can react with the Lewis acid. Any impurities so oxidized and/or reacted are then removed.
