Oil refining processes have evolved over time from "summary" of Oil by Sucha Singh Khera
Oil refining processes have undergone significant changes and advancements over the years. The evolution of these processes can be traced back to the early days of the oil industry when simple distillation methods were used to separate crude oil into its various components. As the demand for refined oil products grew, so did the need for more efficient and sophisticated refining techniques. In the early 20th century, the development of catalytic cracking and hydrocracking processes revolutionized the refining industry. These processes allowed for the production of higher quality fuels and lubricants by breaking down larger hydrocarbon molecules into smaller, more valuable products. The introduction of these technologies marked a major milestone in the evolution of oil refining. In addition to advancements in cracking technologies, improvements in other areas of the refining process, such as desulfurization, dehydrogenation, and isomerization, have also played a significant role in shaping the ...
