Formation of Crude Oil

Crude oil is a liquid found deep under the Earth's surface.
It is made from the remains of organisms like algae and plankton.
These remains were deposited on the sea floor and covered by sediments.
Over millions of years, heat and pressure turned the remains into crude oil.

Composition of Crude Oil

Crude oil is a mixture of many different substances.
Most of these substances are hydrocarbons – compounds made of hydrogen and carbon.

Fractional Distillation Process

Crude oil is separated into different parts by fractional distillation.
In a refinery, crude oil is heated until it turns into a gas.
The gas enters a tall tower called a fractionating column.
The column is hotter at the bottom and cooler at the top.
As the gas rises, different substances cool and condense at different temperatures (different boiling points).
Liquids are collected at various levels, each collecting a different fraction.

Products and Their Uses

Petrol: Fuel for cars.
Diesel: Fuel for trucks, buses, and some cars.
Kerosene: Fuel for jet engines and heaters.
Fuel Oil: Used in ships and large industrial plants.
Butane and Propane: Fuel for cooking, heating, and lighters.
Lubricating oils: Reduce friction in engines and machines.

Environmental Impact

Burning fuels from crude oil releases carbon dioxide (CO₂).
CO₂ is a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming.

States of matter: solid, liquid, gas. Crude oil is a liquid; fractional distillation involves heating to gas and cooling to liquid.
