The main activities of the department:
Solving environmental and energy problems by radiation-chemical methods

The main scientific results of the department:
The effect of temperature, absorbed dose and dose rate, as well as the shape and material of the reaction vessel on the formation of high molecular olefins and gases in radiation-thermal transformations of oil and oil fractions under the influence of gamma, neutron-gamma and accelerated electrons has been studied. The kinetics and mechanism of obtaining hydrogen and synthesis gas from oil residues, oil-bitumen rocks and solid organic fuels have been investigated, and the optimal values of the parameters have been determined. Radiation-chemical transformations of oil, tar and asphaltene oil fractions have been studied, and regularities of degradation of these fractions in the environment have been examined. The transformation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons of oil under the influence of environmental factors has been researched. Methods of radiation-thermal neutralization of waste and oil-containing waters formed during oil transportation have been developed. Radiation-chemical transformations of composite materials obtained from petroleum bitumen have been studied and the ways of increasing their radiation resistance have been shown.
