Petrochemical

Petrochemicals are chemical products derived from petroleum or natural gas. They serve as the building blocks for many everyday items, including plastics, fertilizers, detergents, synthetic fibers, and pharmaceuticals. The process involves refining these fossil fuels to extract hydrocarbons, which are then transformed through chemical reactions into various useful compounds. Petrochemicals are vital to modern industry and daily life, enabling the production of a wide range of materials and products that people rely on.
