ELIMINATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION CAUSED BY DIESEL TRUCKS IN KARABAKH REGION

Abstract

The demand for diesel fuel produced in the Republic of Azerbaijan is high, and reducing its impact on the environment is one of the topical issues. The purification of diesel fraction and its positive and negative aspects have been studied. Research has been conducted on low-energy external agents used to conduct processes in milder conditions. In order to obtain diesel fuel that meets the Euro standard indicators, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were removed from the diesel fraction obtained from the primary processing of oil by using the extraction method. The extraction process was performed under the influence of a magnetic field. Nmethylpyrrolidone and its mixture with various acids were used as an extractant in the research work. The amount of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the diesel fuel purified under the influence of the magnetic field was 6%, which meets Euro-5 diesel standards. Keywords: diesel fraction, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, extraction method, magnetic field, N-methyl-pyrrolidone.
