Problems concerning the production of diesel fuel and motor petrol at small-scale installations intended for oil and gas condensate processing into motor fuel are considered. It is shown that for a large number of oil and gas condensate deposits the virgin diesel fractions correspond in their physicochemical characteristics to the requirements of standards for diesel fuel. In some cases, graded diesel fuel can be obtained by varying the fraction composition and/or using the corresponding additives. For the production of graded automobile petrol at small-scale installations, the most optimal process is Zeoforming, which is based on the use of a zeolite-containing catalyst. It is shown that varying the process conditions one may manufacture petrol of required grades (from AI-80 to AI-96, of summer and winter kinds) from low-octane hydrocarbon fractions of different origin without preliminary desulphurization or hydrofining and without any use of hydrogen-containing gas. In comparison with reforming, petrol obtained by Zeoforming Process is characterized by lower content of aromatic hydrocarbons, especially benzene.

Comparative investigation of the activity of synthesized deposited Cu,Ñî/YxCeyZr1-x-yO2 and Au-, Pt-containing catalytic systems in the reaction of a low-temperature selective CO oxidation in hydrogen-containing gas mixtures had been conducted. It had also been demonstrated that these systems provide a high CO conversion level and selectivity with respect to Î2 in an interval of temperatures up to 150oC. It has been found that Au-containing catalyst is of the highest activity. The activity and selectivity of nanocrystalline Cu/YxCeyZr1-x-yO2 catalysts in the mentioned reaction is higher as compared to Pt-containing catalysts, and they are comparable with an Au containing sample in their selectivity. It had been demonstrated that the use of these catalysts makes it possible to reach the degree of hydrogen cleansing from CO to the level of about 15 ppm, which meets the for fuel cells requirements.

A set of problems and directions of the accelerated application of fluorinated materials to solve a number of tasks in automobile industry is considered. The examples of the treatment of mechanical rubber goods with fluorinated reagents coating the surface of rubber parts with protective films that approach the characteristics of fluorinated polymers are shown. Due to these films, the used materials to not swell in petrol vapour, their wear resistance increases, friction coefficient decreases and becomes comparable with that of fluoroplastics, performance characteristics are conserved under irradiation with light. Examples of the use of acrylates modified with fluorine for corrosion-protective coatings on metal units of automobiles are given. New developments of fluorine-containing surface-active substances for use in nickel- and chromium-plating processes of metal parts, providing ecologically safe and pure conditions for the personnel of these works, are considered. The problems connected with the deposition of oil- and water-resistant coatings on glass are discussed. The efficiency of the treatment of cloth materials for car interior furnishing rendering nonflammable properties and making no flame under the action of open fire is demonstrates. New fluorine-containing lubricants for mechanisms are proposed that exceed those in use in performance characteristics. The technology of obtaining a new cleaning agent for the systems of cooling the car engine and carburetor is developed.
The effect of reinforcing the unsaturated polyester resin with wollastonite on primary physical-mechanical and performance characteristics of the hardened composite material is investigated.

In order to solve the problems of fuel combustion in internal-combustion engines and exhaust gas purification, one may use catalytic coatings deposited either on cylinders and pistons or on the surfaces of bulk supports in the systems of catalytic afterburning of exhaust gas. Both problems can be solved by using the manufacturable method of depositing the coatings with catalytic properties - plasma electrolytic oxidation.

Modern requirements to smokeless gas generating compositions for automobile safety bags are described. Possible ways to decrease combustion temperature and the concentrations of toxic gases in combustion products are analyzed. Thermal stability of the potential components of gas-generating compositions (organic compounds) and the phase state of ammonium nitrate within the temperature range from -50 to +100 oC are investigated. The routes of phase stabilization of ammonium nitrate with organic compounds containing no metals or halogens are proposed. The regularities of combustion of the compositions are investigated, the ways of a substantial increase in the combustion rate of compositions based on ammonium nitrate are proposed.
A mathematical model for the determination of the quality of polymer-bitumen binder for road construction on the basis of the raw material from local oil-processing plants was developed. The model obtained on the basis of investigations into the selection of the optimal composition of modified road bitumen allows one to predict the quality of the product depending on the composition of the initial raw material, thus providing the flexibility of the process of obtaining polymer-bitumen binder.
