The current state of the global coal industry and Kazakhstan shows a decrease in the competitiveness of coal in comparison with other energy carriers. As practice shows, increasing the profitability of coal enterprises and reducing environmental and economic damage is possible if the most complete use of the potential of coal, including aboveground and sub-coal components, as well as coal waste during mining. Technologies of deep processing of not only coal, but also overburden, tailings of enrichment with the production of products and intermediates with high added value are of particular importance.

The economic feasibility of developing coal chemistry is determined by the level of prices for raw materials and products obtained. For example, if 1 ton of brown coal from the Maikubensk deposit costs $ 45-50 under market conditions, then the cost of 1 ton of humic substances obtained from coal as a result of mechanochemical and electrophysical effects can range from $ 1,500 — 5,000 thousand of the purity of products on the international market. Recognizing these principles and the role of organic production in public health, the European Union recently outlined plans to reduce the use of chemical pesticides by 50%, mineral fertilizers by 25% and increase the share of organic farming in the structure of the European agricultural industry to 25% by 2030.

Currently, organic production is practiced in 181 countries on an area of 71.5 million hectares, and the global market for organic products is estimated at 115 billion US dollars. In Kazakhstan, 300 thousand hectares of land use organic fertilizer, while the grown crop is exported to Germany and Russia for high prices (2 times more). The market for organic biologics in Kazakhstan is quite huge.

Recently, organo-mineral microfertilizers containing potassium and/or sodium humates with the addition of Fe, Cu, Zn, Mn, Mo, Co and B in chelated form are considered promising. I must say that microfertilizers based on synthetic ligands (EDTA, DTPA, EDDHA) are usually used for the same purposes. They are effective, but their industrial production uses both monochloroacetic acid and ethylenediamine, obtained from chlorinated hydrocarbons. Of course, such production is unsafe for humans and the environment.

One of the promising ways to solve these problems is the use of humic fertilizers (humates) based on polyelectrolyte acids from brown coals in Kazakhstan.

Polyelectrolyte acids have both positively charged functional groups: peptide (—CO-NH -), azo groups (- N=N -), amines (- NH2, - NH -, >N -), amides (- CO-NH2), imines (>C=NH), and negatively charged: alcohol, phenolic, and hydroxyquinone hydroxyls (- OH), aldehyde, ketone, and quinone carbonyls (>C=0), carboxyls (- COOH), methoxyls (- O-CH3), and some others. In other words, humic acids are polyfunctional polyelectrolytes, more precisely, polyamfolites.

In connection with the above, the proposed project is aimed at developing a highly efficient technology for producing multifunctional new modified organic biologics (MOBS) based on polyelectrolytehumic acids.

Thus, humic substances include humic acids (humic acids, including black and brown, fulvic acids and himatomelanic acids), humin and melanin substances.  The classification of HS is based on their difference related to the extraction of these compounds from natural objects by various solvents.

The idea of creating new modified organic biologics based on humic polyelectrolyte acids obtained from Kazakhstan's coals is a new and promising direction in development not only in the agricultural sector,but also in non-ferrous metallurgy, environmental protection for water purification from heavy metals and metal extraction from aqueous solutions.  Among the substituents, carboxyl, hydroxyl, methoxyl, and alkyl groups predominate. In addition to the skeleton part, humic substances also have a peripheral part, enriched with polysaccharide and polypeptide fragments. We will be able to strengthen the actions of functional groups in a targeted manner.

Due to the presence of donor – acceptor groups, humic polyelectrolyte acids can have a wide range of applications in various industries. Humic molecules consist of two building blocks that differ in their chemical nature: the aromatic framework and the carbohydrate-peptide periphery. Modification of polyelectrolyte acids with directed metal nanoparticles increases the activity and water solubility of the resulting products.

Obtaining modified biological products based on humic polyelectrolyte acids, without exposing the humic framework to decomposition, and thereby enhancing the main positive properties.

Goal: development of technologies and organization of experimental production of modified organic biologics with various components based on chelate complexes obtained from coal and application in crop production for growing environmentally friendly organic products.

The main objective of the project is to develop an environmentally friendly technology and organize the production of biologics and conduct tests to determine the effectiveness of the effect of chelated complex biologics (NPK, Si, Ca, Mn, Co, B, S, Fe).  Investigation of the chemical composition and functional composition of polyelectrolyte acids (humic, fulvic, and himatomelanic) mechanism of interaction of metal nanoparticles in the formation of chelate complexes, study of thermophysical, physico-chemical, biochemical, biological properties of modified biological products and the mechanism of action on plants. Testing and conducting field tests to determine the effectiveness of the obtained chelated complex biologics for grain and vegetable crops on various soils of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The scientific novelty of this work consists in obtaining a biological product with microelements in the form of a chelated complex from polyelectrolyte acids using mechanical activation and ultradispersion from carbon waste.

Field of application of fertilizer: peasant, greenhouse farms; organizations and companies engaged in the cultivation of various agricultural products.

Expected results: The implementation of the project will contribute to improving the country's food security, reducing the dependence of Kazakhstani consumers on imported biofertilizers. The use of modified organic fertilizers will effectively improve the quality and increase the yield of agricultural products in any soil-climatic zones, on depleted and polluted soils, and will also contribute to the preservation and improvement of soil fertility.

Achievedresults: A technique for modifying the carbohydrate-peptide peripheral group and aromatic framework of polyelectrolyte humic acids with metal oxide nanoparticles and minerals has been developed.

The main result of this project is the development of technological regulations and the organization of a pilot plant with a complete technological chain of biologics made from polyelectrolyte acids from coal. Obtaining a quality certificate and technical condition for the production of a pilot batch of organic biologics based on polyelectrolyte acids.

Topicality:The three challenges of the hydrogen economy, namely production, storage, and transportation or application, have been putting enormous pressure on the scientific community over the past few decades.

Based on several studies published in the literature, it is noted that storing hydrogen in solid form is a more appropriate option for solving problems such as its storage and transportation. In this form, hydrogen can be stored by absorption (metal hydrides and complex hydrides) and adsorption (carbon materials such as activated carbons (AC), graphite, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and carbon nanofibers (CNBS). It is observed that the adsorption of hydrogen on carbon materials in comparison with absorption is more favorable in terms of storage capacity. The experimentally measured maximum storage capacity of hydrogen in activated carbon, graphite, single-layer nanotubes, multi-walled nanotubes, and CNW at room temperature is 5.5, 4.48, 4.5, 6.3, and 6.5 wt.% , respectively.

It is predicted that hydrogen will become an efficient alternative fuel that can be widely used in various sectors. However, the production of hydrogen is inconvenient, in addition, hydrogen technology faces a serious problem of its storage and transportation. Hydrogen can be stored in three ways: compressed gas, cryogenic liquid, and solid-state storage. In the first case, a large storage tank is required in combination with the presence of high-pressure gas, which requires high compression energy, since hydrogen gas occupies a large volume. In the second method, as a cryogenic liquid, it requires a large financial investment, and the process always consists of various losses, such as boiling off during refilling, etc. Therefore, the cost-effectiveness and safety of hydrogen storage have attracted the attention of a number of researchers to its preservation by adsorption and/or absorption on materials / alloys.

Since materials such as CNTs, AU, zeolites, graphene, and organometallic frameworks can be optimized through physical and chemical processing to increase the storage capacity of hydrogen. Various results of works in literatures are known, indicating different estimates of storage capacity, but the values obtained in some cases did not correspond to the required standard.

The creation and development of new storage systems with higher capacity, lower weight and greater stability have always been the goals of various technological initiatives, especially in the field of portable electronics and moving vehicles. Therefore, it has become clear that a safe, efficient and cost-effective storage system is essential for the future use of hydrogen as an environmentally friendly energy source. From a safety point of view, the use of metal hydrides has an advantage, but is not suitable for most materials, if you take into account the total weight of the tank system. This disadvantage can be avoided by using carbon materials because of its low atomic weight and microporous nature, which adsorbs undissociated hydrogen molecules under the action of Van der Waals forces on its surface.

Goal:The main goal of this project is to create and develop carbon materials with a microporous structure and a high specific surface area for the separation and storage of hydrogen, characterized by a larger capacity, low weight and high stability.

Scientific novelty. The scientific novelty of this project is the development of scientific foundations and the production of microporous carbon materials with a high specific surface area for the separation and storage of hydrogen, characterized by a larger capacity, light weight and greater stability from carbon raw materials. Thermochemical processes will be used to produce carbon nanostructures and improve their ability to store hydrogen. Also, to increase the specific surface area, an electric arc treatment method will be used, where the resulting carbon material will be used as an electrode. For the first time, we will use the effect of an electron beam (on an industrial electron accelerator) on carbon materials. Since the treatment of accelerated electron beams is one of the most promising energy types of impact on materials. The electron beam is an environmentally friendly energy carrier, which makes it possible to introduce a large amount of energy into the volume of the processed material in a short time, dramatically changing its state.

Scope of application:coal chemistry, power engineering, nanotechnology, environmental protection, etc.

Relevance:The oil industry of Kazakhstan is one of the most important sectors of the economy of Kazakhstan. Today, Kazakhstan is among the top 15 countries in the world in terms of proven oil reserves, with 3% of the world's oil reserves. Oil and gas bearing regions cover 62% of the country's land area and have 172 oil fields, of which more than 80 are under development. More than 90% of oil reserves are concentrated in 15 major fields – Tengiz, Kashagan, Karachaganak, Uzen, Zhetybai, Zhanazhol, Kalamkas, Kenkiyak, Karazhanbas, Kumkol, Northern Buzachi, Alibekmola, Central and Eastern Prorva, Kenbai, Korolevskoe. The deposits are located on the territory of six of the fourteen regions of Kazakhstan. These are Aktobe, Atyrau, West Kazakhstan, Karaganda, Kyzylorda and Mangystau regions. At the same time, approximately 70% of hydrocarbon reserves are concentrated in the west of Kazakhstan.

The problem of soil contamination by oil and petroleum products (NP) is urgent and urgent. Soil contamination by oil and mineral deposits is a real ecological disaster of the ecosystem. Oil production and processing, transportation and storage of inventory items are associated with contamination of the oil production area, emergencies in transport and pipelines, leaks from oil storage facilities, and the formation of oil-containing wastewater and oil sludge. Oil pollution creates an unfavorable ecological situation, which leads to a profound change in all links of natural biocenoses or their complete transformation. Degradation of the soil cover during petrochemical contamination of soils is manifested in complete or partial destruction of the soil profile, violation of the thickness of genetic horizons; changes in physical (density, structure, porosity, connectivity, aggregation) and chemical (humus content, ash nutrition elements, high-molecular compounds, soil suspension reaction, salt distribution along the profile) properties of soils. The main pollutants were crude oil, drilling fluids, and mineralized industrial wastewater. Soils were contaminated by spills or releases of reservoir fluids consisting of crude oil, gas, oil water, wastewater, groundwater, and drilling fluids. These substances got into the soil due to a violation of technology or various emergency situations.

According to article 54 of the Subsurface and Subsurface Use Code, a subsurface user is obliged to eliminate the consequences of subsurface use operations on the subsurface area provided to him, unless otherwise established by this Code. Elimination of the consequences of subsurface use is a set of measures carried out to bring production facilities and land plots into a state that ensures the safety of life and health of the population, environmental protection in accordance with the procedure provided for by the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Biological methods based on natural mechanisms of self-cleaning of the soil, which are traditionally implemented at open technological sites of bioremediation, are widely used to restore oil-contaminated soils. The main disadvantage of using open bioremediation processing sites is the impossibility of carrying out the WIP processing process with controlled parameters, the need to allocate significant land areas for technological sites, and the long period of the process, which is limited by natural and climatic factors and ranges from 2 to 4 growing periods for oil-contaminated territories. The use of intensive biochemical technology allows preserving the positive aspects of the bioremediation method and eliminating the resulting disadvantages, which is achieved by creating and maintaining optimal parameters necessary for effective biodegradation of oil hydrocarbons in the soil throughout the calendar year.

Objective:To study the properties of a complex bacterial-humic biological product, as well as to develop a technology for use as a means for soil detoxification and practical applicability for cleaning oil-contaminated lands.

Scientific novelty. The scientific novelty of the project is the creation and development of a technology for combined biologics based on a consortium of microorganisms (soil, lactic acid, yeast) and humic salts from brown oxidized coals of Kazakhstan for use as a biological product for recultivation of oil-contaminated lands. With the successful implementation of this project in Kazakhstan, highly effective biological products based on humic substances in combination with microorganisms will be developed and obtained for the first time for the reclamation and restoration of oil-contaminated lands, which currently occupies huge areas of hectares in the Western regions of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The resulting biological product has export potential, as Arab countries, the Persian Gulf countries, and African countries need to obtain such biological products for irrigation of sandy, arid lands, and salty soils. This biological product can be used to restore soils after oil pollution.

Scope of application:oil and gas, coal chemical industry, biotechnology, environmental protection.

• The mechanism of recultivation of the state of oil-contaminated soils by introducing a complex bacterial-humic biological product, which includes the consortium of microorganisms of the biological product UMBK and potassium humate "Kazuglegumus", is studied.Treatment of oil-contaminated soils with an UMB biological product consisting of a consortium of microorganisms (A1-Kocuria rosea; S3-Cytobacillu; Firmus S4-Pseudomonas zhaodongensis; S6-Bacillus atropaeus) microorganisms in combination with humic preparations of various concentrations (1, 10, 30, 50 %) obtained on the basis of potassium humate "Kazuglegumus". Provides fast and effective rehabilitation of these areas with restoration of the main soil properties.
• A method for recultivation of land contaminated with oil products by a complex biological product has been developed. To increase the efficiency of recultivation and improve the sanitary and hygienic condition of oil-contaminated soils, we have developed a method for recultivation of oil-contaminated soils and oil-contaminated lands by introducing a complex bacterial-humic biological product into the soil. Before applying it to the soil, concentrated solutions of microorganisms and humic substances are mixed with water in a ratio of 1 : 1: 100; UMB is used as a microbial biological product consisting of soil microorganisms, with a consortium of 4 different microorganisms (A1-Kocuria rosea; S3-Cytobacillu; Firmus S4-Pseudomonas zhaodongensis; S6-Bacillus atropaeus), the basic potassium humate "Kazuglegumus" and its modifications with (N, NPK, Fe, Si) are used as a humic preparation.
