Description about Industry: -
This category covers establishments engaged primarily in producing gasoline, kerosene, distillate fuel oils, residual fuel oils, and lubricants through fractionation or straight distillation of crude oil, redistillation of unfinished petroleum derivatives, cracking, or other processes. Petroleum refineries turn crude oil into a variety of intermediate forms that are used in a wide range of products, from asphalt to plastics. All products begin in much the same way: with the distillation, or vaporization, of crude. Distillation begins when crude oil boils. Components within crude condense at different rates and are extracted at progressive points along a time/temperature continuum. Lighter, high-value products, such as propane, butane, gasoline, and jet fuel, condense at lower temperatures while heavier compounds require high temperatures or a special extraction method to be transformed into such products as diesel fuels, heavy fuel oil, and asphalts. The components of distillated crude vary according to the makeup of the raw crude, with some batches containing large amounts of sulfur, for example, while others may be bituminous and full of heavier compounds.
