1910s - USA, Industry: Petroleum
Oil refinery - pan over exterior tanks and buildings. Oil storage tank - crude oil stills where oil is refined. an cleaning stills and bolting on covers. Automatic stoker for coal burners to heat the oil. Animation to show how distillation process works and how oil is separated into gasoline, kerosene, gas, oil & paraffin. Pipes and cooling process.
17:45:03 Inspectors testing quality of oils as they come from the stills. Storage tanks. Laborer putting on face mask before he climbs into still to remove coke residue. Man inside still which is still at burning temperature. Coke coming down chute from stills. Group of laborers “cooling off“. Coke in wagons being sprayed by water to cool. The coke from crude oil is almost pure carbon and in demand in many industries. Coke shoveled into wheel barrows.
17:??:?? Re-run stills where further distillation takes place - pumps. Man testing gasoline.
