Abstract

Petroleum is fractionated according to its boiling point by distillation methods. Depending on the boiling point range of the sample, fractionated products fall into three main categories: light, middle and heavy distillates. Middle distillates (from approximately 150°C to 400°C, which approximately corresponds to C9-C24) are mostly used for heating and transportation fuels (e.g., diesel, jet fuel, gas oil, aviation turbine oils, kerosene).
