III. Introduction
Petrochemistry, or petroleum chemistry, is the science that studies the use of chemical compounds (hydrocarbons) derived from petroleum and natural gas to manufacture other synthetic compounds. These productions are generally based on appropriate chemical and thermal transformation techniques, carried out either in the presence or absence of a catalyst.
