What are petroleum distillates?

Petroleum distillates are products made from crude oil. The process of taking crude oil and creating finished products is called distillation. The first step of the refining process is running crude oil through a distillation tower. At this time crude oil is separated into different basic products which then undergo further process at the refinery to create products that are sold to consumers. There are three classes of distillate products: Light: Liquid Petroleum Gas(LPG), gasoline, and naptha. Medium: Kerosene (and jet fuel) and diesel. Heavy/Residuum: Heavy fuel/bunker fuel, wax, and asphalt.


What products do petroleum C3 C4 and C5 make?

Petroleum C3, C4, and C5 refer to the alkanes and alkenes with three, four, and five carbon atoms, respectively. C3 compounds, primarily propane and propylene, are used as fuels and in the production of plastics. C4 compounds include butane and butylene, which serve as fuels and feedstocks for petrochemical processes. C5 compounds, like pentane and isopentane, are utilized in gasoline blending and as solvents in various industrial applications.
