Electrolytic production of reactor-purity zirconium in a sealed electrolyzer is more cost-effective than metallothermic production, as it does not require iodide refining and the use of reducing metals (Na, Mg, and Ca). Despite the importance of this production, its features are not fully described in the literature. This study presents the results of industrial tests of the electrolysis process in a sealed electrolyzer with a current load of 10 kA from the molten electrolyte KCl–KF–K2ZrF6. Based on the achieved technological indicators, the current efficiencies of the main cathode and anode reactions were determined and the factors influencing them were evaluated. We analyzed the composition of nutrient salts and the mechanism of accumulation of potassium fluoride in the electrolyte, an increase in which concentration leads to an anode-destroying effect. We considered possible mechanisms of the electrochemical formation of freons and compiled material balances for all starting substances and reaction products. The change in the electrolyte density during electrolysis was calculated, which allowed justifying the volume of its daily drainage. Fine carbon and zirconium powder formed in the electrolyte due to the interaction with potassium metal are not separated and are removed for chemical redistribution, which reduces the productivity of the electrolysis process.","PeriodicalId":23684,"journal":{"name":"Voprosy Khimii i Khimicheskoi Tekhnologii","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136160563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to the first direction, the ways of using various non-traditional types of raw materials and waste containing sugars for the purpose of producing environmentally friendly types of fuel are considered. According to the second direction, the possibilities of integrated use of ethanol and all by-products formed during its production are analyzed to improve ecology in the fuel industry. We have established the possibility of using the by-products of ethanol production, fuel oil and fuel alcohol, to improve the operational properties of motor fuels used in carburetor and diesel engines. It has been stated that the additives of fuel alcohol and fuel oil increase the octane number of gasoline, improve its fractional composition, as a result of which the completeness of fuel combustion and the uniformity of its supply to the engine cylinders increase. The optimal concentrations of alcohol additives to gasoline are as follows: 5 vol.% and 10 vol.% for fuel alcohols and fuel oil, respectively. It has been established that the addition of fuel oil to diesel fuels increases their cetane number, this causes the mixture to ignite faster and the diesel engine to start. Moreover, with the addition of fuel oil, the temperature of the beginning of boiling decreases which facilitates the starting properties of the fuel, and the viscosity of the fuel mixture decreases which improves the completeness of mixing and transportation in the engine system. The optimal concentration of fuel oil additive to diesel fuel is 10 vol.%.","PeriodicalId":23684,"journal":{"name":"Voprosy Khimii i Khimicheskoi Tekhnologii","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136127941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The prospective use of lithium calcium phosphate silicate glass ceramics for obtaining strengthened, biologically active bone implants was substantiated. The main criteria for the development of biocompatible glass-ceramic materials regarding their composition, structure, texture, and surface properties have been established. The influence of differences in the structure and resorption of calcium phosphosilicate glass ceramics on the mechanism of formation of an apatite-like layer in vivo was analyzed. The features of mineralization of calcium phosphosilicate glass ceramics in vivo during bone tissue regeneration were determined, and the effectiveness of the use of glass ceramics based on hydroxyapatite and lithium disilicate in bone tissue replacement was established to reduce the rehabilitation period and long-term use of endoprostheses under variable loads.

Composition A contained the reagents ND-12 and Alkan, composition B contained reagents ND-12 and Gossypol resin, and composition C contained the reagents BAF, ND-12, Gossypol resin and Dissolvan-4411. Physical and chemical properties of the oil samples taken for the research were studied by known methods. The results of the obtained laboratory experiments gave reason to say that mainly one composition, B, has the highest demulsifying effect. In addition to the demulsifying effect of compositions A, B and C, the corrosion protection effect was also studied under laboratory conditions. In this regard, water-oil emulsion was used as an aggressive corrosion medium. The rate of corrosion was determined by gravimetric method in both reagent-free and reagent-containing mediums, and the corrosion protection effect of the compositions was calculated. Thus, the protection effect of composition B was 98.1% in Muradkhanli oil sample, and 97.8% in Balakhani oil sample. Moreover, the effect of all three newly prepared compositions on the surface tension and freezing temperature of the studied Muradkhanli and Balakhani oil samples were investigated.

The process conditions most influencing the course of suspension oligomerization of the С9 fraction are as follows: stirring intensity (Re=2290–13450) with the correlation index of 0.88, reaction time (30–240 min) with the correlation index of 0.87 and the ratio of dispersed phase to dispersed medium (1:1–1:4) with the correlation index of –0.91.

Such sustainability indicators as the E-factor, atomic efficiency, mass intensity and mass productivity, reaction mass efficiency, stoichiometric factor, etc., have been determined. We established that sustainability indicators of transesterification catalyzed by ion exchange resins depend on the yield of higher fatty acid esters that can be achieved by immobilized metal ions. The unreacted alcohol regeneration significantly reduces the E-factor value and increases the reaction mass efficiency. During the sunflower oil ethanolysis, the minimum E-factor value is achieved at the ethyl alcohol:triglyceride molar ratio corresponding to the maximum yield of higher fatty acid esters. The reaction mass efficiency calculated without considering the unreacted alcohol regeneration is one of the criteria for determining its regeneration expediency. The sustainability indicators are the additional criteria for selecting optimal conditions of the sunflower oil transesterification with aliphatic alcohols catalyzed by ion exchange resins.

Coordination of the curcumin ligand with the central atom is bidentate cyclic through the -diketone group, and the ortho-methoxyphenol fragment of Cur does not participate in chelation.

It was shown that the complex formation of zinc with curcumin causes an increase in the relative intensity of fluorescence and a shift of the emission band to the long-wave region. This indicates both the complexation process and the sensitizing effect of the zinc ion. When phenatroline is added to the zinc(II) complex, the fluorescence emission maximum undergoes a bathochromic shift compared to the ZnCur2 monoligand complex, and the relative fluorescence intensity decreases by 2.5 times. The shift of the radiation maximum to the region of low energies is due to the coordination of the phenathroline molecule to metal ions; and the decrease in emission is due to the shielding ability of the phenathroline donor molecule in relation to the weaker curcumin donor, which increases the number of non-radiative energy losses caused by its inefficient transfer due to the large energy gap between the triplet levels of the ligands.","PeriodicalId":23684,"journal":{"name":"Voprosy Khimii i Khimicheskoi Tekhnologii","volume":"65 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83748772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
