Answer Posted / mukesh

Refinery can be difined as a chemical plant where the crude
oil derived from well which cant be used directly in its
virgin form for any purpose until it passes through various
unit operations like de saltination,cracking,
distilllation, evaporation, etc. is processed. This
processing convert the crude oil into diffrent usable
product as a result of unit operations as per its chemical
properties.
The refinery covers wide range prodcuts mainly
Gasoline,diesel,tar,many Hydrocarbon either in gaseous or
liquid from. The refinery is established intending key
products in mind as per the needs.

X is a solid having a white colour at room temperature. It has a density about 2g/cc. Although it has melting point near 325 degree Celsius, its properties start degrading above 260 degree Celsius. The coefficient of friction is very low about 0.1. It has very good dielectric properties especially at higher radio frequencies. It has a very high bulk resistivity. It is chemically inert. It is also resistant to van der Waals force. It is hydrophobic as well as lipophobic. Creep or ‘Cold Flow’ has been observed in X.
