In one aspect, the present subject matter is directed to a system for removing sulfur from liquid hydrocarbon fuel. The system includes a reactor having a fuel inlet and fuel outlet. The fuel inlet and fuel outlet are in fluid communication with a fuel path passing through the reactor. The fuel path is defined by an inner helical thread portion and an outer helical thread portion. The inner helical thread portion is complimentary with and has a smaller diameter than the outer helical thread portion. The inner helical thread portion surrounds a heating element and the outer helical thread portion is surrounded by an outer cover.

1. A system for removing sulfur from liquid hydrocarbon fuel, the system comprising: a reactor, the reactor having a fuel inlet and fuel outlet, the fuel inlet and fuel outlet being in fluid communication with a fuel path passing through the reactor, the fuel path being defined by an inner helical thread portion and an outer helical thread portion, the inner helical thread portion being complimentary with and having a smaller diameter than the outer helical thread portion, the inner helical thread portion surrounding a heating element, the outer helical thread portion being surrounded by an outer cover, wherein the fuel path comprises a metal oxide sorbent material which effects the removal of sulfur from a stream of liquid hydrocarbon fuel fed into the fuel inlet. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the metal oxide sorbent material comprises zinc oxide. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the sorbent is activated. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the inner helical thread portion and outer helical thread portion form a seal which prevents fluid from leaking therebetween. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the liquid hydrocarbon fuel comprises JP-8 fuel. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the fuel outlet is in fluid communication with a fuel cell through a fuel reformer. 7. The system of claim 1, further comprising a thermocouple in communication with the heating element. 8. The system of claim 1, further comprising a filter material at the fuel outlet. 9. The system of claim 8, wherein the filter material comprises nickel or stainless steel foam. 10. A system for removing sulfur from liquid hydrocarbon fuel, the system comprising: a reactor, the reactor having a fuel inlet and fuel outlet, the fuel inlet and fuel outlet being in fluid communication with a fuel path passing through the reactor, the fuel path being defined by an inner helical thread portion and an outer helical thread portion, the inner helical thread portion being complimentary with and having a smaller diameter than the outer helical thread portion, the inner helical thread portion surrounding a heating element, the outer helical thread portion being surrounded by an outer cover, wherein the fuel outlet is in fluid communication with a fuel cell through a fuel reformer. 11. The system of claim 10, wherein the fuel path comprises a metal oxide sorbent material which effects the removal of sulfur from a stream of liquid hydrocarbon fuel fed into the fuel inlet. 12. The system of claim 11, wherein the metal oxide sorbent material comprises zinc oxide. 13. The system of claim 11, wherein the sorbent is activated. 14. The system of claim 11, wherein the inner helical thread portion and outer helical thread portion form a seal which prevents fluid from leaking therebetween. 15. The system of claim 11, wherein the liquid hydrocarbon fuel comprises JP-8 fuel. 16. The system of claim 11, further comprising a thermocouple in communication with the heating element. 17. The system of claim 11, further comprising a filter material at the fuel outlet. 18. The system of claim 17, wherein the filter material comprises nickel or stainless steel foam. 19. A system for removing sulfur from liquid hydrocarbon fuel, the system comprising: a reactor, the reactor having a fuel inlet and fuel outlet, the fuel inlet and fuel outlet being in fluid communication with a fuel path passing through the reactor, the fuel path being defined by an inner helical thread portion and an outer helical thread portion, the inner helical thread portion being complimentary with and having a smaller diameter than the outer helical thread portion, the inner helical thread portion surrounding a heating element, the outer helical thread portion being surrounded by an outer cover; anda filter material in the fuel outlet. 20. The system of claim 19, wherein the filter material comprises nickel or stainless steel foam.
