Explanation:
The crude petroleum is heated and the hot gases are passed into the bottom of a distillation column. As the gases move up the height of the column, the gases cool below their boiling point and condense into a liquid.
Fractional distillation is the use of distillation to separate a liquid mixture into different parts (fractions) that differ in boiling point. The substances in crude oil have different boiling points, so they can be separated by fractional distillation.
after the distillation process conversion and treatment would be done and if you understood the separation process then you will understand the next two processes quite easily
