Gasoline is produced from?

Crude oil, by heating it and distilling the vapour produced.


What is the name of the process that separates crude oil into more useful substances?

Crude oil is separated by fractional distillation. The components of crude oil are separated by a process which is known as fractional distillation. Crude oil is made of different components whose sizes, weights and boiling temperatures are different from each other. When the crude oil is heated with high pressure steam at a high temperature, it boils and forms vapour. The vapour enters a fractional distillation column and settled in the trays of the column. The trays have holes in them which raise the contact time among the vapour and liquids. The vapour rises in the column and cools, the hotter substances settle at the bottom of the column and the cooler substances rise to the top of the column. The substances in the vapour condense and the fractions of liquid collect in the tray and pass to condensers and storage tanks.


What is dead crude?

Crude oil comes from the reservoir as live crude, containing methane and other lower carbon compounds that are liberated as the pressure is reduced (in the reservoir, in the well, in the separator or storage battery) and the crude is allowed to cool. Dead crude is degassed crude meaning no more gas is likely to be liberated. The volumetric measurement of crude is normally done at "standard conditions" of atmospheric pressure and 60 degrees F, although standards vary.

Is crude oil hot?

The temperature of crude oil in the ground will depend on the geographic location in which it is location as well as the surrounding conditions and the physical location (i.e. depth). After that crude oil is kept at a temperature which will allow for optimum processing and transport. Often no heat needs to be added until it arrives at the refinery.


What is crude oil true vapor pressure?

True Vapor Pressure is the pressure of the vapor in equilibrium with the liquid at 100 F (it is equal to the bubble point pressure at 100 F)
