What is Understanding Crude Oil and Hydrocarbons about?

Crude oil is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons formed from the remains of ancient organisms. It is separated via fractional distillation into fractions like gasoline and kerosene that are used as fuels. Cracking breaks larger hydrocarbon molecules into smaller, more useful ones like alkenes which are feedstocks for the petrochemical industry. This process helps match the supply of oil fractions to demand and produces industrially useful alkene molecules.
