Answer:

The process of separating the various constituents/ fractions of petroleum is known as refining. It is carried out in a petroleum refinery.At the refinery, the crude oil mixture is 'fractionated' into different components by fractional distillation.

Petroleum refineries change crude oil into petroleum products for use as fuels for transportation, heating, paving roads, and generating electricity and as feedstocks for making chemicals. Refining breaks crude oil down into its various components, which are then selectively reconfigured into new products.
