What is Cracking Processes in Petroleum Refining about?

The document discusses petroleum refining processes. It describes how crude oil is fractionally distilled to separate it into different fractions like liquefied petroleum gas, gasoline, kerosene, diesel and heavier fractions. It also discusses catalytic cracking, where heavier fractions are converted into more valuable lighter fractions like gasoline to increase gasoline yield. Thermal cracking, both liquid phase and vapor phase, is also summarized to convert heavy oils into gasoline and other products.
