The present invention provides a catalytic gasoline desulfurization method having also an olefin selective removal function, which comprises: when a catalytic gasoline is pre-hydrotreated, cutting into a light fraction, a middle fraction and a heavy fraction; performing liquid-liquid extraction desulfurization treatment on the middle fraction to produce a sulfur-poor oil and a rich solvent containing sulfur-rich oil; the light fraction back-extracting the rich solvent, using C5 olefin therein to replace a macromolecular acyclic olefin in the sulfur-rich oil, so as to gather together C5 iso-olefins, cycloolefins, aromatic hydrocarbons and sulfides in the sulfur-rich oil; performing hydrogenation, olefin-reduction and desulfurization treatment on the heavy fraction together with the sulfur-rich oil removed from the back-extracted rich solvent to saturate the olefin therein; and finally, preparing together with the sulfur-poor oil to produce a full range gasoline. The sulfur-content of the catalytic gasoline produced by the method of the present invention can be reduced to 10 ppm or less, the olefin content of the catalytic gasoline can be reduced to 22%, the olefin is saturated by up to 8 percentage, and the RON loss of the full range gasoline is 1.5 or less, so that while reducing the olefin content of the catalytic gasoline, it ensures the less octane number loss, thereby satisfying the olefin-reduction requirements upgraded in the gasoline National VI Standard for ethanol-gasoline supply area enterprises.

Deep desulfurization of hydrocarbon feeds containing undesired organosulfur compounds to produce a hydrocarbon product having low levels of sulfur, i.e., 15 ppmw or less of sulfur, is achieved by with an apparatus arranged for flashing the feed at a target cut point temperature to obtain two fractions. A low boiling temperature fraction contains refractory, sterically hindered sulfur-containing compounds, which have a boiling point at or above the target cut point temperature. A high boiling temperature fraction, having a boiling point below the target cut point temperature, is substantially free of refractory sulfur-containing compounds. The high boiling temperature fraction is contacted with isomerization catalyst, and the isomerized effluent and the low boiling temperature fraction are combined and contacted with a hydrotreating catalyst in a hydrodesulfurization reaction zone operating under mild conditions to reduce the quantity of organosulfur compounds to an ultra-low level.
