The fractions at the top of the fractionating column have lower boiling points than the fractions at the bottom. The heavy bottom fractions are often cracked into lighter, more useful products. All of the fractions are processed further in other refining units. | | Crude oil | fractional distillation | fractionating column | boiling points | cracked | warships | fuels | lubricants | petrochemical | plastics | detergents | solvents | elastomers | fibers | nylon | polyesters | Petroleum | fossil fuels | ship | automobile | aircraft | engines | hydrocarbons | boiling points | distillation | hydrocarbons | The oil refinery in Haifa, Israel is capable of processing about 9 million tons (66 million barrels) of crude oil a year.
