Abstract
The pour point of the highly waxy Bombay High crude oil (wax content 1 1-14%) lies at 30-degrees-C. These waxes largely consist of n-alkanes. These n-alkane components have been separated from the crude oil by t reating with different amounts of urea under varying conditions. The e ffect on the pour point of the crude oil has been determined. Accordin g to the observations made, the concentration of n-alkanes in the crud e oil influence the pour point, whereas the carbon number distribution has not much of significance.
