METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR THE THERMAL TREATMENT OF HEAVY FUEL OIL ABSTRACT A method and apparatus for the thermal treatment of heavy fuel oil. Hot vacuum residue 19 from a vacuum distillation unit 18 is fed directly to fuel burning means to produce energy. A gas oil stream 20 is withdrawn from the dis- tillation unit and subjected to mild thermal cracking conditions in a heater 24 which cracks a portion of the waxes which tend to concentrate in the heavier gas oil fractions. The heated stream is mixed with the feedstock inlet stream 16 and so serves to provide the heat energy necessary to operate the distillation unit.
