Oil Refining

Oil refining is the process of converting crude oil into useful products like gasoline, diesel, and other fuels. It involves heating crude oil in a large tower called a distillation column, where different components separate based on their boiling points. Heavier fractions become fuels and lubricants, while lighter fractions yield gases and petrochemicals. Additional processes, like cracking and treating, further enhance the quality and yield of products. The entire refining process transforms raw oil into valuable resources that power vehicles, industries, and homes, playing a vital role in modern economies and daily life.
