This paper presents a method of sorption using peat for elimination of emergency spills of crude oil and petroleum products and the possibility of energy use of oil-saturated peat. The results of assessment of the sorbent capacity of peat are presented, with waste motor oil and diesel fuel chosen as petroleum products. Natural peat has been found to possess sorption properties in relation to petroleum products. The sorbent capacity of peat can be observed from the first minutes of contact with motor oil and diesel fuel, and significantly depends on their viscosity. For the evaluation of thermal properties of peat saturated with petroleum products, experimental studies have been conducted on determination of moisture and ash content of as-fired fuel. It is shown that adsorbed oil increases the moisture and ash content of peat in comparison with the initial sample. Therefore, when intended for energy use, peat saturated with petroleum products is to be subjected to additional drying. Simulation of net calorific value has been performed based on the calorific values of peat and petroleum products with different ratios of petroleum product content in peat and for a saturated peat sample. The obtained results are compared with those of experiments conducted in a calorimetric bomb and recalculated for net calorific value. A satisfactory discrepancy is obtained, which amounts to about 12%. Options have been considered providing for combustion of saturated peat as fuel (burnt per se and combined with a solid fuel) and processing it to produce liquid, gaseous and solid fuels. Peat can be used to solve environmental problems of elimination of emergency spills of crude oil and petroleum products and as an additional resource in solving the problem of finding affordable energy.

Effect Of The Composition

The equilibrium interfacial distribution of sulfur and boron was estimated using the HSC 6.1 Chemistry software package (Outokumpu) and the simplex-lattice planning method. Adequate mathematical models have been constructed in the form of III degree polynomial, which describe the effect of the composition of the studied oxide system on the equilibrium distribution of sulfur and boron between the slag and the metal. Generalization of the results of experimental studies and thermodynamic modeling made it possible to obtain new data on the influence of the basicity and content of B2O3 in the slag of the CaO-SiO2-B2O3-MgO-Al2O3 system on the interphase distribution of sulfur and boron. It was found that in the range of boron oxide concentration of 1.0-10%, an increase in slag basicity from 2 to 5 at 1600°C leads to an increase in the sulfur distribution coefficient from 1 to 20 and, as a consequence, a decrease in the sulfur content in the metal from 0.02 to 0.0014 %, i.e. an increase in slag basicity favorably affects the development of the metal desulfurization process. An increase in the B2O3 content from 2.0 to 10.0% in slags formed in the region of moderate basicity, not exceeding 2-3, is accompanied at 1600°C by a decrease in the boron interphase distribution coefficient from 450 to 150 and an increase in the boron concentration in the metal from 0.006 to 0.021 %, which indicates the progress of boron reduction from slag to metal. The shift of the formed slags to the area of ​​increased basicity up to 5.0 shows a high degree of boron reduction from slag to metal. The results of the laboratory experiment confirmed the results of thermodynamic modeling.

The article presents results of theoretical and experimental studies of the processes of iron solid-phase reduction from an iron-containing concentrate obtained as a result of hydrometallurgical dressing of ferromanganese and polymetallic manganese-containing ores with coals of grades D (long-flame) and 2B (brown). The method of thermodynamic modeling using TERRA software complex was used to study the reducing properties of hydrocarbons by calculating equilibrium compositions in the temperature range of 373 - 1873 K. The authors obtained the dependences of compositions and volume of the gas phase formed as a result of the release of volatile components during heating on the temperature for the coals of the grades under consideration. As a result of thermodynamic modeling, the optimal temperatures and consumption are determined, which ensure the complete iron reduction from an iron-containing concentrate. The results of experimental studies were obtained by modern research methods using laboratory and analytical equipment, as well as methods of statistical processing. Results of the coals analysis carried out using the Setaram LabSys Evo thermal analyzer showed that the process of thermal decomposition of coals of the studied grades proceeds according to general laws. The process of thermal decomposition of long-flame coal proceeds less intensively than of brown coal. The results of an experimental study of the processes of thermal decomposition of reducing agents have shown that volumes of the gas phases, formed when coals are heated to a temperature of 1173 K in an argon atmosphere, practically coincide with the calculated values. As a result of thermodynamic modeling and experimental study, the optimal consumption of D and 2B grades of coal is determined at a temperature of 1473 K. The best reducing agent with a minimum specific consumption is long-flame coal of D grade. When determining the optimal amount of reducing agent in charge mixtures during the study of metallization processes, it was found that with an excess of reducing agent, it is possible to achieve almost complete extraction (98 - 99 %) of iron from the concentrate.

ABSTRACTWe report on experimental studies and thermodynamic modeling of the reaction of O2 with the 4H- and 6H-SiC surfaces at high temperatures. This reaction leads to the growth of passivating SiO2 layers at high O2 pressures, etching of the surfaces at lower pressures, and enhancements of the surface segregation of carbon at still lower pressures. A pressure-temperature phase diagram for the oxidation of SiC is presented. Evidence for the thermal decomposition of the SiO2 layer on SiC is also presented.

This paper presents the research data aimed at resolving the problem of soil purification from high-paraffin crude oil using microorganisms.Samples of oilcontaminated soil were taken from the walls of the oil storage pit at the Uzen oilfield. According to the analysis of the oilcontaminated soil samples, the share of oil was 28 %, the share of mechanical impurities – 9.7 %, and the share of water – 60 %.It has been found that according to the API(American Petroleum Institute) indicators, that oil chemical composition may contribute to its rapid decomposition during bioremediation. Paraffin hydrocarbons are also easily decomposed by bacteria. The bacterial preparation «SHER» was used in laboratory experiments.The method of bacteria immobilization with the «SHER» biological product on the medium made from screenings of shell limestone wastes has been chosen.The conditions for conducting experimental laboratory studies on cleaning oil-contaminated soils by biological remediation are described.According to the results of the research, it was established that the immobilization of bacteria of the biological product "Sher" by a carrier in the form of sifting limestone-shell rock showed a high degree of purification of oil-contaminated soil (88.63%).To study the further activity of bacteria, experiments were conducted on the secondary use of thesolution of residual mother waterof the biological product "SHER", used in the process of cleaning oil-contaminated soil.The results of experimental studies using solution of residual mother water and immobilization by screening showed the degree of soil purification (45.7%). Thus, based on the results of studies of the drug "SHER", it can be concluded that this drug can effectively neutralize oil products in the soil.
