The article analyzes the growth of opportunities for the production of petrochemical products in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The article analyzes the dynamics of global demand for basic petrochemical products over the past 15 years. The aim of the article is to represent the effectiveness of the...

The objective of this paper is to optimise the liquid product of pyrolysis from as much as 500 g of polypropylene (PP) plastic waste, using a fixed bed type reactor in a vacuum condition (-3 mm H2O), to minimise the oxygen entering the reactor. The vapour flows through the 4-tray distillation...

The catalytic copyrolysis of waste particle board (WPB) and polypropylene (PP) was investigated for the first time over HY (5.1), HY (30), H-Beta and Ga/H-Beta catalysts. The catalysts were characterized by BET and NH3-TPD analyses. The catalytic pyrolysis of the WPB increased the production of...

Phase change materials are used for thermal management solution in textiles because of the automatic acclimatising properties of textiles. Most of the phase change materials used in textiles is usually found in the range of 28–32 °C of their melting point. This paper reports a type of smart...

Aluminum has many advantages for commercial bipolar plate of PEM fuel cell such as light weight, low cost and easy manufacturing. However, it has a low corrosion resistance under a PEM fuel cell operation condition that is a special issue of all metal bipolar plates. In this study, polypropylene...

The impact fragmentation of a bulk polyurethane elastomer (PU) and polypropylene (PP) cylinder have been investigated using a Cu plate projectile launched by a propellant gun at a velocity of 0.53–1.4 km/s. A projectile drills into a PU sample and forms a cavity in the sample. A small number...

Owing to the stringent indoor air quality (IAQ) requirements and high cost of desiccants, one of the major concerns in liquid desiccant technology has been the carryover, which can be eliminated through indirect contact between desiccant and air. Membrane contactors using microporous...

We study the evolution of thermal degradation of samples of polypropylene (PP), during their aging for two periods of 60 and 80 days. The study, using thermogravimetric analysis (TG) and differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) analyses, focused on two types of aging: the natural one under the...
