Petroleum Refinery Engineering Lecture 1

It is at the front-end of the refinery and is responsible for crude distillation.

Petroleum naphtha, gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, asphalt base, and fuel oil

Directly by cracking crude oil without the need of using refined products of crude oil such as naphtha
