The need for modernization of the existing energy sector is driven by globally increasing energy demand, rising carbon emissions, global warming, and climate change. The world tends towards the sustainable and more environmentally friendly energy sector that will meet future energy demands by reducing the usage of raw and non-renewable materials and resources and decreasing energy consumption and pollution. Nanotechnology, as one of the key technologies of the 21st Century, holds the potential to revolutionize the entire energy sector, contributing to the development of more efficient and sustainable energy systems. The implementation of nanotechnology in the energy sector is in the various stages of research, development, and deployment. Nanotechnology’s solutions and approaches can help create innovative ways to produce, change, distribute, store and consume energy. This paper attempts to summarize some of the current nanotechnology applications in energy sector, emphasizing the associated benefits as well as risks and concerns. Present nanotechnology-based solution and approaches used in the energy sector confirms nanotechnology's potential to revolutionize the entire energy sector. Alongside the growing use of nanomaterials and nanoproducts, uncertainties on the nanotechnology potentially harmful influence on the environment, health, and safety rise as well, representing a main concern related to nanotechnology applications. In addition to the technological feasibility of the nanotechnology implementation in the energy sector, a wide range of other conditions, such as political, economical and social, influence the rate of implementation and acceptance of nanotechnological innovations in the energy sector.

“…This asymmetric shift can be comparable with the data presented by previous works 11 . According to them, when the citrate ligand bound to magnetite nanoparticles surfaces the antisymmetric stretching of -COO-at 1586 cm -1 almost remains the same but the symmetric -COO-stretching mode of citrate becomes redshifted and appears sharply 12 at 1398 cm -1 .…”

The nanotechnology has been developed in recent years due to the wide application in the human beings. One of the famous nanomaterials is copper nanoparticles. The copper nanoparticles have been reported to have strong antibacterial activity. Nowadays there are many environmental problems and illness caused by the microbial pathogen. It is widely agreed that nanoparticles are clusters of atoms in the size range of 1-100 nanometer. The present study included the chemical reduction of copper chloride through trisodium citrate and testing for their antimicrobial activity. The aqueous copper chloride exposed to the trisodium citrate results in the synthesis of copper nanoparticles. The pH and viscosity of the copper nanoparticles monitored and indicates the stability of the particles. Ultraviolet-visible spectrum and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy further confirmed in the synthesized copper nanoparticles. These synthesized copper nanoparticles were further confirmed by using a scanning electron microscope. The scanning electron microscope analysis showed the particle size between 44.50 nanometers as well the spherical structure of the nanoparticles. The proven antibacterial activity of synthesized copper nanoparticles against Escherichia coli established. It is confirmed that copper nanoparticles are capable of rendering high antibacterial efficacy and hence has a great potential in the preparation of drugs used against bacterial diseases. Applications of copper nanoparticles based on these findings may lead to valuable discoveries in various fields such as medical devices and antimicrobial systems.

“…Using only 10% of oil residues, which are still used as boiler fuel, is equivalent to producing 50-60 million tons of oil per year. Fuel oil contained in heavy oils is up to 50% and higher, and much of it is used to produce boiler fuel or raw materials for the production of bitumen and coke, which is the main reserve for the deepening of oil refining (Pandey, 2018;Abul Hamayel, 2002;Guerzoniand Abbot,1993).…”

“…The value of the catalyst surface area was measured by a heat desorption method that enables to measure the surface within the range of 0.1-500 m 2 Hysteresisograph (Italy) was used, and electron microscopic studies and electron probe analysis were performed using the Camebax-Microbeam instrument (France). The phase composition was monitored by X-ray analysis using the Dron-0.5 X-ray diffractometer, the chemical composition of the catalyst surface was studied using the ES-2401 X-ray photoelectron spectrometer, and the chemical composition of the surface was studied using the Auger spectrometer pH1-590.…”

In this work the narrow fractions of non-perforated cenospheres from the combustion of Ekibastuz coal at the Almaty TPP-2 with an aluminosilicate module SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 = 3.2 and an iron content of 3.03-3.67 wt. % in Fe 2 O 3 have been researched. It was shown that the composite containing of activated zeolite based on Almaty TPP-2 cenospheres is optimal for obtaining of light gas oil during cracking in both inert medium and trace air quantity. The composite also showed maximum activity during oxidative cracking of vacuum distillate of Zhetybay oil (Kazakhstan). In the presence of the developed catalysts, the symmetric decomposition of the high-molecular-weight hydrocarbons contained in fuel oil was with the formation of alkenes and alkanes of the relative homologous series, starting from heptene-1 and heptane endingwith octadecen-1 and octadecane. As a result of the study, an innovative method of oxidative cracking of fuel oil in the presence of cheap catalysts, synthesized on the basis of natural zeolites of Kazakhstan deposits and zeolites obtained from fly ash from thermal power plants has been developed.
