Crude oil is a naturally occurring‚ unrefined petroleum product composed of hydrocarbon deposits. It is a fossil fuel‚ meaning that it was made naturally from decaying plants and animals. Crude oils vary in color‚ from clear to tar-black‚ and in viscosity‚ from water to almost solid. Crude oil can be refined to produce usable products such as gasoline‚ diesel and various forms of petrochemicals and as such‚ are a useful starting point for many different substances. Crude oil is also a naturally

Heather Myers iLab‚ Week #6 CRUDE OIL DISTILLATION Introduction The purpose of this lab is to distill crude oil and learn how the chemical properties influence the temperature. The distillation of a substance is based on the boiling points. When the crude oil is brought to a boil‚ at 275°C‚ the gasoline and kerosene are distilled‚ but the lubricant remains part of the crude oil. Procedure 1. From the Equipment menu‚ select Distillation Equipment and obtain a Round Bottom Flask (100 ml). 2. Select

Bleaching of crude palm oil (CPO) Bleaching of crude palm oil will be carried out using a mass ratio of 1 synthesized adsorbent to 11 CPO. The CPO in bottle is well shaken before pouring into beaker with an amount of 110 grams. Magnetic stirrer is put into the beaker contains CPO and continuously stirred until it reaches 100 °C. After that‚ 6 drops of phosphoric acid is added into CPO followed by the addition of 10 grams synthesized adsorbent. The adsorbent must be poured slowly to ensure it mixed

And the global appetite for oil-based fuels makes the environment‚ or indigenous people‚ only a secondary consideration in the oil business. To cap it all‚ most oil production is from politically unstable regions of the world so that our foreign policy cannot help but be warped by a need to secure our fuel supply. `q1Qq Put in that light‚ our willingness to be completely dependent upon it for transport seems quite unfathomable.

The reducing high quality oil resources and increase of oil price contributed to production from heavy oil reservoirs in recent years. This paper investigates the heavy crude oil properties and evaluates the steam-assisted gravity drainage(SAGD) which has become the method of choice for oil sand producers and it is therefore critical to optimize this process.
