The nasty stink of nafta products is not caused by sulfurous compounds but by olefins - compounds with C=C bonds. You need a hydrogenated product. Since you are not going to build your own petrochemical refinery (you would not have offered $5 in such case), you need to buy the product from some manufactuter. |

For most household purposes "lamp oil" is probably what you want. This site explains, the second one just demonstrates that it can be had: http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-lamp-oil.htm http://store.auraoil.com/ |

We need only the deodorizing part. We will buy the kerosene and deodorize it. We are looking for the details of a process to do it. |

This sounds like a nasty and hazardous procedure best left to the experts: "Kerosene is deodorized and decolorized by washing with (fuming) sulfuric acid..." http://www.nature.nps.gov/hazardssafety/toxic/kerosene.pdf |

I'm not a fan of putting conc. acids anywhere near organic compounds. I'd be more tempted to do a hydrogenation (there's a bunch of commercial catalysts and rigs for this) followed by a dilute acid and base work-up. |
