This study aimed to investigate synthesized wollastonite based on amorphous silicon dioxide and calcium carbonate as adsorbent for cleaning hydrocarbon feedstock from heavy organometallic compounds and sulfur. During the analysis, physicochemical parameters including the specific surface area and intensity of synthesized wollastonite were determined. The results showed that the optimal temperature zone for demetallization of hydrocarbon raw materials was 653 - 683 K, with a contact time of 60 minutes, and pressure of 8 - 10 atm. Furthermore, the content of vanadium, nickel, iron, and sulfur was found to decrease from 540 to 52 µg/kg, 50 to 26 µg/kg, 50 to 12 µg/kg, and 3.50% to 2.39%, respectively.
