The catalytic activity of the binary composite catalysts of Fe2O3-CoO/CaA and Fe2O3-CoO/ZSM-5 was studied. They were obtained by impregnation of CaA and ZSM-5 zeolites with aqueous solutions of sulfates of iron (FeSO4·7H2O) and cobalt (CoSO4·7H2O). The total metal content was no more than 5%. Then, oxidizing burning at 720 °C for 60 min was performed to produce the metal oxides. It was found that the obtained Fe-Co/CaA catalyst contains iron and cobalt as CoFe2O4 compound, and the Fe-Co/ZSM-5 catalyst includes CoFe2O4 and CoFe. The phase composition of the obtained catalysts was detected by the X-ray diffraction analysis. The surface morphology was investigated by the electron microscopy. The elemental composition of the obtained catalysts was determined by energy dispersive spectroscopy with mapping and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. The atomic absorption analysis by the IR-spectroscopy showed the shifts of absorption bands in the infrared spectra of the pure zeolites and with added Fe and Co. The catalytic hydrogenation of anthracene was performed to determine the catalytic properties of the obtained catalysts. It is one of the most common model compounds applied to investigate the efficiency of catalytic systems. The result of hydrogenation found that conversion of anthracene at 400 °C, initial pressure of 6 MPa and duration of 60 min using the Fe-Co/CaA catalytic system equaled to ~87%. However, hydrogenation products equaled to ~84%. Anthracene conversion using the Fe-Co/ZSM-5 catalytic system and the same conditions was ~91%; among them, hydrogenated derivatives were ~71%. The proposed method is characterized by its simple execution. The obtained catalysts are be slightly inferior to platinum and rhodium catalysts in the catalytic activity.

The paper presents the results of a physicochemical analysis of coke sample from “Euromet” LLP (Karaganda, Kazakhstan), which is a carbonaceous material with high carbon content, the absence of volatiles matter and low ash content. Carbon sorbents were obtained from low-value fractions of carbonized materials of the Karaganda region coke production by the steam-gas activation. An important advantage of using screenings (coke breeze class 0-10 mm, which was crushed and fractionated to a particle size of 2-5 mm.) is the exclusion of the energy-intensive carbonization stage from the technological process, which releases a large amount of environmentally harmful substances (phenols, cresols, gaseous emissions etc.). The optimal conditions for obtaining a sorbent from low-value coke breeze are a temperature of 850 °C and an activation time of 2 hours. The physicochemical properties (ash content, bulk density, sorption capacity for iodine and methylene blue, total pore volume for water) of carbon sorbents were determined

This is a research on the hydrodesulphurization process of hydrogenate from the coal of Shubarkolsky deposit (Republic of Kazakhstan) in the presence of pyrite and natural zeolite. The rate constants for hydrodesulphurization process of the liquid products and Gibbs energy were calculated by the method of equilibrium kinetic analysis, which was necessary for improving the technological parameters for the hydrotreatment of liquid hydrogenation products. It is shown that the optimal time of the hydrodesulphurization process is 15-25 minutes. The sulfur content in the fraction up to 2000С is 0.043 %, and in a fraction of 200-3000С - 0.065 %, which indicates a high degree of hydrotreatment of the hydrogenate in the presence of the above mentioned catalyst.
