The document discusses petroleum refining, cracking, and methods of producing synthetic petrol. It describes how crude oil is refined through separation, conversion, and treatment processes like distillation. Cracking breaks large hydrocarbon molecules into smaller, more useful molecules through thermal or catalytic cracking. Synthetic petrol can be produced via polymerization, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis from syngas, or Bergius process where coal is hydrogenated over a catalyst into liquid fuels.

following components, which are listed by % of the
barrel they constitute:
42% Gasoline

Introduction:
4. REFINING:-
Petroleum refining refers to the process of
converting crude oil into useful products. Crude
oil is composed of hundreds of different
hydrocarbon molecules, which are separated
through the process of refining. The process is
divided into three basic steps:
•Separation
•Conversion
•Treatment
6. CRACKING:-
•Cracking is the name given to breaking up large hydrocarbon
molecules into smaller and more useful bits. This is achieved by
using high pressure and temperature without a catalyst, or lower
temperature and pressure in the presence of a catalyst.
•The source of the large hydrocarbon molecules is often the
naphtha fraction or the gas oil fraction from the fraction
distillation of crude oil. These fractions are obtained from the
distillation process as liquids, but are re-vaporised before
cracking.
7. Cracking (cont…)
•There isn’t any single unique reaction happening in the
cracker. The hydrocarbon molecules are broken up in a
fairly random way to produce mixture of smaller
hydrocarbons, some of which have carbon-carbon double
bonds. One possible reaction involving the hydrocarbon
C15 H32 might be:
C15 H32 = 2C2H4 + C3H6 + C8H18
9. Catalytic Cracking:-
• Modern cracking uses Zeolites as the catalyst. These are
complex aluminosilicates, and are large lattices of
aluminium, silicon and oxygen atoms carrying a negative
charge. They are, of course, associated with positive ions
such as sodium ions. You may have come across a zeolite if
you know about ion exchange resins used in water
softeners.
•The alkane is brought into contact with the catalyst at a
temperature of about 500 C and moderately low pressures.
10. • The zeolites used in catalytic cracking are chosen to give high
percentages of hydrocarbons with between 5 and 10 carbon
atoms- particularly useful for petrol. It also produces high
proportions of branched alkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons like
benzene.
• The zeolite catalyst has sites which can remove a hydrogen from
an alkane together with the two electrons which bound it to the
carbon. That leaves the carbon atom with a positive charge. Ions
like this are called carbonium ions. Reorganisation of these leads to
various products of the reaction.
11. Thermal Cracking:-
•In thermal cracking high temperatures and pressures are
used to break the large hydrocarbons into smaller ones.
Thermal cracking gives mixtures of products containing high
proportions of hydrocarbons with double bonds- alkenes.
•Thermal cracking doesn’t go via ionic intermediates like
catalytic cracking. Instead, carbon-carbon bonds are broken
so that each carbon atom ends up with a single electron. In
other words, free radicals are formed.
12. SYNTHETIC PETROL:-
Introduction:-
•Synthetic fuel or Synfuel is a liquid fuel obtained from coal,
natural gas, oil shale, or biomass.
•It may also refer to fuels to fuels derived from other solids
such as plastic or rubber waste. It may also refer to gaseous
fuels produced in a similar way.
•Common use of the term synthetic fuel is to describe fuels
manufactured via Fischer Tropsch conversion, methanol to
gasoline conversion or direct coal liquefaction.
13. Method of producing Synthetic
Petrol:-
1. Polymerisation
2. Fischer- Tropsch method
3. Bergius process
14. Polymerisation:-
•In these method, smaller molecules of hydrocarbons
are combined to form heavier molecule resembling
gasoline. It is of two type:
1. Thermal Polymerisation
2. Catalytic Polymerisation
16. Catalytic Polymerisation:-
•It is carried out at a lower temperature of 150-
200 C, in a low pressure and in presence of
catalyst like phosphoric acid. The rate of reaction
is increased. The gasoline obtained is of improved
quality and posses high antiknock properties than
the gasoline obtained from thermal
polymerisation process.
17. Fischer- Tropsch Process:-
•The Fischer-Tropsch process is a collection of chemical reactions
that converts a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen into
liquid hydrocarbons. The process, a key component of gas to
liquids technology, produces a synthetic lubrication oil and
synthetic fuel, typically from coal, natural gas or biomass. The F-T
process has received intermittent attention as a source of low
sulphur diesel fuel and to address the supply or cost of petroleum
derived hydrocarbon
• The water gas is varied with hydrogen and the combination is
purified by transitory from side to side Fe2O3 and then into a
mixture of Fe2O3+Na2CO3. The cleanse gas is dense to 5 to 25 atm
and then led from side to side a converter, which is preserve at a
temperature of 200-300 C.
18. The converter is provided with a catalyst bed consisting of a
mixture of 1000 parts cobalt, 5 parts thoria, 8 parts magnesia
and 200 parts keiselghur earth.
nCO + 2nH2 = CnH2n+ nH2O
nCO +(2n+1)H2 = CnH2n+2 + nH2O
The outcoming gaseous mixture is led to a condenser, where
the liquid crude oil is obtained, The crude oil is fractionated to
yield gasoline and heavy oil. The heavy oil is used for cracking
to get more gasoline.
20. Bergius Process:-
•In these process, the finely powdered coal is competed keen on a
paste through heavy oil and a catalyst powder is mixed with it.
The paste is pumped along with hydrogen gas into the converter,
where the synthetic paste is heated to 400-450 C under a pressure
of 200-250 atm.
• During this process hydrogen combined with coal to form
saturated higher hydrocarbons, which experience additional
decay at superior temperature to acquiesce combination of lesser
hydrocarbons. The mix is led to a condenser, where the crude oil
is attained. The crude oil is then fractionated to yield:
Gasoline
Middle oil
Heavy oil
