Refining:
Refining this precious product takes quite the large amount of time. We start by placing the oil into a heater tank, which acts as both a distillery as well as a processor. By heating and sifting through the Oil, the Petroleum separates into cleanly stratified layers (use bottle demo here)
We brought in a practical demo of what the container would look like if it could be made see-through. Although there may be a little mingling, there is a final stage of refining for each section of oil, before it is shipped over to distribution plants so that they may be sent to gas stations, airports for fuel, construction sites for asphalt and other materials.
Below is a graphic on a 2009 estimate for Oil separation per barrel.
