Oil refinery

Introduction

As we all know gasoline is produced from oil, but gasoline is clear, unlike oil. Oil is used in many products that we use, such as crayons, plastics, heating oil, jet fuel, kerosene, synthetic fibers and tires.­ 

Oil is pumped then split into its components which are then used to produce all these things. You will learn more details about this process further on. 

In this lesson you will learn more about oil refinery process, as well as complete a task about this topic to test your knowledge. Good luck!
