    Crude oil, primarily a mixture of hydrocarbons, is separated into useful components in a fractionating tower. At the bottom of the tower, the crude oil is heated to about 400°C. The gases formed rise and cool. Most of the gases condense and are collected as liquid fractions. The table below shows the temperature ranges for collecting various hydrocarbon fractions.
