The hydrogen-donor abilities of polymers and the activity of catalysts in the process of thermal destruction of the organic mass of primary coal tar (PCT) are studied by non-isothermal kinetics methods. PCT,magnetic microspheres, nickel-deposited chrysotilechrysotile and Fe3O4nanocatalysts were used as initial raw materials. Рolymers such as polyethylene (PE), polystyrene(PS) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) were selected as a hy-drogen donor. The phases Mg3[OH]4{Si2O5} and NiO were determined by X-ray phase analysis (XRD) in the obtained catalyst (nickel-deposited chrysotile), and the presence of highly dispersed nickel oxide particles on the surface and inside the nanotubes was shown by the transmission electron microscope (TEM). Nickel oxide particles of 8–11 nmand 30–37 nmwere evenly distributed on the surface and inside the chrysotile nanotubes. The kinetic parameters of the thermal destruction of a mixture of PCT, catalyst and polymer material were determined on the basis of thermogravimetric analysis using the integral method and the method for determin-ing the thermokinetic parameters by the inflection point on the thermogravimetric curve(TG). The change in the activation energy, rate constant and pre-exponential factor with an increase in the degree of destruction of the organic mass of the PCT is established. It was shown that the nature of polymers and catalysts significantly affects the value of the rate constant and the activation energy. The calculated activation energies of the thermal destruction of a mixture of coal tar with PS and PE in the presence of a catalyst (nickel-deposited chrysotile) by the first method are 47.6 kJ/mol and 40.4 kJ/mol, and by the second method are 47.3 kJ/mol and 86.5kJ/mol respectively.

Method of definition thermodynamic functions of heavy oil organic mass processed by underwater spark discharge The methods of preparing oils for pipeline transport associated with the mechanical effect on high-viscosity and highly paraffinic oil is today a topical problem for refineries. As is known, the most promising method today is the method of electrohydropulse discharges, which allows to regulate the oil dispersed system properties by changing the sizes and forms of complex structural units. Creation environmentally friendly synthetic liquid fuels production supposes the improvement technology of upgrading high-viscosity oil process. To solve this problem, along with experimental studies, thermodynamic analysis of various upgrading ways of high-viscosity oil is necessary. Such calculations must be carried out by giving different compounds' classes contained in highly viscous hydrocarbon compounds. A deep study of the transformations mechanism of high-viscosity oil's organic mass from the Karazhanbas field is a prerequisite for developing new highly effective hydrogenation processes. Therefore, this article is devoted to study kinetics and thermodynamics of the high-viscosity oil processing from the Karazhanbas field.
