What would be the process(es)for kerosene or diesel deodorising?
 
What's causing the odor, if you know? What flow rate(s) are you talking about?

Assuming the odor is due to mercaptans or H2S, a Merox based type of process might work though Merox/extractive caustic type of processes aren't that effective on removing heavier mercaptans. Hydrotreating will work but that's expensive.
