The present work investigates the hydro treating process of a diesel to achieve low Sulphur content. Themain objective for removal of Sulphur from diesel is that it contributes to increased level of air pollution and equipmentcorrosion. The objective of this project emphasizes to maintain Sulphur level about 40ppm, to ensure flash point about77oC and to ensure less Sulphur content by using copper corrosion test. The steam stripper is used for removal ofhydrogen sulphide and ammonia. During feed steam stripping, there is an addition of moisture or water in diesel hence itis sent to salt dryer where rock salt is present which absorbs moisture content from diesel. Due to very high consumptionof rock salt we are using a reboiler instead of a rock salt dryer. As reboiler is not efficient for removal of moisture wereplace reboiler with vacuum drier
