Conclusion
This completes a very cursory look at the nature and refining of crude oil. The
remainder of this first part of the Handbook continues with a more detailed
examination of the various processes, the economic aspect of the refining industry,
and the impact the industry has on modern living. It also describes and discusses
modern techniques used in the industry and other allied industries (such as engineering and construction) to improve and optimize the design and operation of the
refining processes.
