BR24993178 "Development of an innovative technology for processing secondary resources - waste from metallurgical production, by-products of oil refining and oil production"

Supervisor: Sabitova Alfira Nurzhanovna


Relevance:

The relevance of developing innovative technologies for recycling secondary resources, such as metallurgical waste and by-products of oil refining and oil production, is due to the need to solve environmental, economic and social problems. These industries generate significant amounts of waste that negatively impact the environment. The creation of recycling technologies allows us to reduce waste volumes, minimize pollution, extract valuable materials and reduce dependence on primary resources. This contributes to the implementation of the principles of a circular economy, increases the economic efficiency of production, reduces the cost of raw material extraction and supports sustainable development. In the context of depletion of natural resources and global environmental challenges, the implementation of such technologies is becoming a priority, ensuring the fulfillment of international commitments, such as the Paris Agreement on climate change. In addition, this contributes to the creation of new jobs, improving the environmental situation in industrial regions and the development of scientific and technological potential. The development of innovative solutions for recycling accumulated waste is not only a step towards environmental safety, but also an important driver for a sustainable and competitive industrial future.


Target:

Development of innovative technology for processing secondary resources - waste from metallurgical production, by-products of oil refining and oil production.


Expectation:

The following results will be obtained as part of the implementation of this program:

- Innovative technology for extracting non-ferrous and rare earth metals from lead
production slag;
- Innovative technology for obtaining mineral fertilizers from lead production slag;
- Innovative technology for obtaining building materials and structures, road surfaces from lead production slag with the addition of oil refinery waste - oil sludge, waste from the regeneration and disposal of used motor oils;
- Innovative technology for obtaining high-quality bitumen from by-products of oil
production and processing;
- Innovative technology for the regeneration of used motor oils using available local mineral raw materials;
Based on the results of the program, the following were published:
1) at least 6 (six) articles and/or reviews in peer-reviewed scientific publications in the scientific area of the program, included in the 1st (first), 2nd (second) and/or 3rd (third) quartile by impact factor in the Web of Science database and/or having a CiteScore percentile in the Scopus database of at least 50 (fifty).
2) at least 7 (seven) articles in journals recommended by the Committee on Quality Assurance of Higher Education.
3) at least 1 (one) monograph or textbook in foreign and (or) Kazakhstani publishing houses recommended by the academic council and (or) scientific and technical council of the applicant’s organization;
4) at least 1 (one) patent in foreign patent offices (European, American, Japanese) or at least 1 (one) foreign or international patent included in the Derwent Innovations Index database (Web of Science, Clarivate Analytics) or at least 3 (three) objects of intellectual property (patent; for applications in the field of information technology - author's certificate), registered with the National Institute of Intellectual Property of the Republic of Kazakhstan.


Result:

1. Personnel training:

1) training of 4 doctoral students,

2) training of 6 master's students,

3) training of 2 postdoctoral students,

4) scientific internship for 3 months of young personnel in top universities of Europe and Asia - 4 people

2. Economic effect and import substitution: high-quality target products previously not produced in the Republic of Kazakhstan will be obtained - bitumen, regenerated motor oils, mineral fertilizers and new generation building materials. Semi-finished products for further processing will also be obtained from lead production waste: lead and zinc oxides and other non-ferrous metals.
