What is Crude Oil Fractional Distillation Process about?
Fractional distillation separates crude oil into fractions of different boiling points in large distillation columns. The lightest fractions such as naphtha exit from the top while the heaviest fractions like residue exit from the bottom. Reflux is used to improve separation by condensing vapors and increasing mass transfer between liquids and vapors. Crude oil distillation units are the first process in refineries, separating crude into fractions that are further processed.
