<p>The invention envisages a method of treating a hydrocarbon feedstock material including water characterised by the steps of: supplying the feedstock material as a working medium along a flow path through a vessel; directing an oxidising gas flow into the vessel so as to provide for the oxidising gas to pass through the working medium with intimate mixing between the gas and the working medium; enabling at least one product generated by chemical or physical interaction between the gas and the working material to be withdrawn from the flowpath by way of an extraction path. The invention can be further used as a fractionating process. Thus the foregoing process can comprise the steps of: supplying the feedstock material as a working medium along a flow path through a vessel; involving providing in the vessel the working medium as a column of working material; directing an oxidising gas flow into the vessel so as to provide for the oxidising gas to pass through the working medium involving directing an oxidising gas from a first location in the vessel so as to pass through the column of working material with intimate mixing; and enabling at least one product generated by chemical or physical interaction between the gas and the working material by causing the product to be generated as a fractionation product generated by chemical or physical interaction between the gas and the working material and the extraction path comprises an outlet path from the column.</p> |
