Crude Oil Disstillary Products
Distillation is a method by which a liquid mixture containing different chemical substances is boiled so that the chemical substances can be separated based on their volatility. Distillation usually a part of a chemical process and there are different types of distillation. For refining crude oil, fractional distillation process is used. More...
Crude Oil Usage In Usa
Crude oil usage in USA is rather limited. In fact, burning crude oil in itself has limited use all over the world. In the US and the rest of the world, to extract maximum value from the crude oil it first needs to be refined into various petroleum products. The most popular of petroleum product in More...

Effects Of Petroleum On Microorganism
In marine environment petroleum can be degraded microbially but it happens at different rates.

How Gasoline Is Made From Crude Oil
Gasoline is made from crude oil. The oil is pumped out of the ground in the form of a black liquid. This oil contains hydrocarbons, and the carbon atoms link together to form chains of different lengths.More...
Crude Oil To Gas Conversion
Crude oil is also known as petroleum and it is a fossil fuel that is extracted from the ground and then refined into a variety of petroleum products ranging from liquids to solids. Crude oil is converted to gas by a process known as fractional distillation and thereafter it has to undergo many other chemical and refining processes to become the gas we use.More...
