Energy & Geo-environmental Engineering 101

Lesson 5 - Petroleum Processing

Crude oil goes through a lot to make it to the gas pump, and to meet operational and environmental reguations at the same time. Crude oil is also transformed into numerous other useful products that we use every day, from lip balm to clothing.

We'll explore these transformations, along with refining technologies, environmental treatments, some simple chemical structures, and oil spill treatments and prevention.
