Title: Digitalization of the thermoplastic beryllium oxide slurry forming process using ultrasonic activation
Authors: Zhapbasbayev U.K., Ramazanova G.I., Retnawati H., Sattinova Z.К.
Abstract: This paper presents the results of the digitalization of the thermoplastic beryllium oxide slurry forming process using ultrasonic activation. Ceramics made from beryllium oxide (BeO) using ultrasound-assisted forming exhibit more intense sintering and, in comparison to ceramics formed without ultrasound, have reduced shrinkage (by 2.4-4.3%) and sintering temperature (by 50-180°C). The forming processes occurring during ultrasonic treatment resulted in the homogenization of the thermoplastic suspension and dense packing of BeO powders in the casting. Ultrasound activation alters the rheology of the thermoplastic slurries. These changes are attributed to processes of slurry mass dispersion and mass exchange at the phase boundary of the suspension. Ultrasound activation also enhances casting properties. During the cooling-solidification process under the influence of ultrasound, the density and strength of the castings increase due to the effective compensation of shrinkage. Shrinkage compensation is carried out according to the classical scheme by supplying a liquid suspension. For hot casting with ultrasound of thermoplastic beryllium oxide slurries, it is advisable to use compositions with a binder content of 11.0-11.7% by weight since these compositions provide better shrinkage compensation and, consequently, a denser casting.
Keywords: forming process, thermoplastic slurry, beryllium oxide, viscoplastic state, casting solidification.

Title: Thermodynamics of antimony—selenium alloys formation and evaporation
Authors: Volodin V.N., Trebukhov S.A., Nitsenko A.V., Linnik X.A., Tuleutay F.Kh.
Abstract: The thermodynamic functions of alloy formation and evaporation were considered for two particular systems — Sb – Sb2Se3 and Sb2Se3 – Se in connection with the presence of congruently melting compound Sb2Se3 in the antimony—selenium system. The calculations are based on the partial vapor pressure values of the components forming the particular systems. The thermodynamic activity of antimony selenide and selenium as the most volatile components in the systems was calculated based on the saturated vapor pressure values of antimony selenide over the Sb – Sb2Se3 and selenium melts over Sb2Se3 – Se liquid alloys determined by the boiling point method (isothermal variant). Similar functions of the low volatile components in the above systems: Sb in the first system and Sb2Se3 in the latter one was calculated by numerical integration of the Gibbs—Duhem equation using the substitution proposed by Darken. The partial pressures of antimony selenide and antimony over Sb – Sb2Se3 and Sb2Se3 – Se melts were approximated by temperature—concentration relationships. The system is distinguished with a positive deviation from ideality due to the presence of a delamination region in the first system. The partial and integral entropies and enthalpies of the formation of liquid alloys were calculated based on the values of component activities found as the ratio of the partial vapor pressure of an element or compound above the solution to the saturated vapor pressure of a pure element or compound. The partial and integral functions of alloy formation are presented in the form of graphical dependences on the selenium amount in the melt. The obtained thermodynamic constants will replenish the physical and chemical data base and will be used to calculate the boundaries of the vapor— liquid equilibrium fields on the diagram of state, allowing to determine the possibility and completeness of distillation separation of molten systems.

Title: Purification of wastewater from heavy metal ions using nanostructured adsorbents
Authors: Konyratbekova S.S., Shopanbek Zh., Nurzhanova S.B., Baikonurova A.O.
Abstract: The activities of industrial enterprises in ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy and other industries lead to environmental pollution with wastewater containing harmful substances that, even in small quantities, have a rather serious negative impact on human health and the state of the biosphere. There are a large number of natural sorbents used to solve water treatment problems. Among inorganic sorption materials, zeolites are widely used in practice. These natural materials have thermal and radiation stability and high selectivity. The purpose of this article is to study the sorption capacity of zeolites modified with nanostructured rare metals in several ways, with different options for activating the matrix to improve sorption properties with respect to ions of heavy and non-ferrous metals. Based on the experiments conducted, it was proven that zeolites modified with vanadium and titanium nanocompounds are highly effective in removing heavy metal ions from wastewater. The resulting composition on a zeolite matrix creates a highly dispersed solid phase of nanoparticles in the form of a sol-gel. Such systems have an excess of energy, which leads to increased reactivity and adsorbing properties. It is obvious that the activation of zeolites makes it possible to obtain a wider range of active centers of different nature. This determines the varied use of zeolites in the technological system for treating wastewater from heavy and non-ferrous metal ions, which will make it possible to achieve MPC standards.

Authors: Koizhanova A.K., Kenzhaliyev B.K., Magomedov D.R., Erdenova M.B., Bakrayeva A.N., Abdyldaev N.N.
Abstract: The article presents the study results for the processing of industrial waste from copper production at copper smelter Kazakhstan. The samples taken were analysed with the help of X-ray fluorescence and phase analyses which showed that the composition of the studied raw materials was determined as silicate, oxidized, and copper was in a mixed form with a total content of 0.481%, including some in the form of sulfates and sulfides. Mineralogical analysis showed the presence of magnetite, hematite and martite, while copper was present in various mineralogical formations - from magnetic fractions mainly with very fine dusty micron dissemination to native copper and copper minerals. Beneficiation studies performed included flotation and gravity methods. As a result, a concentrate with a copper content of 9.35% was obtained during gravity beneficiation, and a concentrate with a copper content of up to 46% was obtained during flotation. Copper was extracted from beneficiated raw materials with a sulfuric acid leaching method in agitation mode. The solid residue analysis conducted after (cake) leaching also showed the content of the noble metal - gold at the level of 0.47 g/t enabling us to consider its extraction in the future as an additional valuable component.

Title: Experience of coalbed methane extraction in the Karaganda coal basin
Authors: Rabatuly M., Musin R.A., Zamaliyev N.M., Dzhusupov N.D., Usupaev Sh.Е.
Abstract: This article discusses the issues of ensuring the safe conduct of mining operations in coal mines. Ensuring the safety of coal industry workers is an urgent problem today. The gas content of the layers increases with the depth of their occurrence and is a deterrent factor in the extraction of minerals. Sudden methane emissions can provoke a large number of human casualties, financial losses, and other consequences. In recent years alone, such accidents have claimed more than 157 human lives in the mines of the Karaganda coal basin. However, by solving this important problem, you can get associated gas. It is not easy to reduce the gas content using existing degassing technologies. The formations have almost zero gas permeability and low gas output at the current depths of their development. That is why it is necessary to have an impact on the coal seam as early as possible in order to ensure the release of methane. This process will make it possible to obtain associated gas, which can be used for the needs of industry or the national economy. As a result, reducing the gas content of coal seams will reduce the risks of mining operations and increase labor safety.

Title: Thermal maturity of organic matter and type of kerogen of Mesozoic sediments, Aryskum depression
Authors: Madisheva R.K., Ozdoev S.M., Demeuova A.B., Amangeldiyeva G.B., Seithaziev E.Sh.
Abstract: This work is devoted to the study of the oil and gas source potential of the Mesozoic deposits of the Aryskum depression of the South Turgay oil and gas basin and aims to study the features of the geological structure, determine the facial-genetic type and degree of maturity of organic matter. Geochemical methods play an important role in assessing oil and gas source potential, one of which is pyrolytic core analysis to determine the type of organic matter and thermal maturity of the studied rock material samples. To achieve this goal, the results of pyrolytic analysis of stone material from Neocomian and Jurassic deposits were used. Analysis of geological and geophysical materials made it possible to trace the pattern of distribution over the area of oil and gas-bearing sandy layers and the underlying clay layers with high insulating properties in the Aryskum horizon. The results obtained show that the total organic carbon content ranges from 0.47 to 1.41 wt%. To establish the type of kerogen and its position relative to the zones of oil and gas formation, the Van Krevelen diagram was used in the coordinates of atomic ratios of the elemental composition of kerogen and its modification for pyrolytic data, indicating that the kerogen of the studied samples is a mixture of types I, II and III, facies-genetic the type of organic matter of which belongs to humic, humic-sapropelic, and the sedimentation conditions are coastal-marine environment in moderately reducing conditions.

Abstract: The paper presents research work to establish genetic characteristics of lead-zinc mineralization in the Ulytau-Arganatinsky structural-facial zone. Expanding the mineral resource base of Central Kazakhstan is one of the most urgent tasks because selecting the criteria and characteristics determines the aspects of prospecting and exploration work, as well as their results, which is the goal. In this regard, the following tasks are being solved: identifying the geodynamic position, the genesis of mineralization, the connection of the rock's physical properties with geophysical anomalies, as well as displaying tectonic disturbances and deep faults in them; establishing the connection of mineralization with the carbonaceous-terrigenous package of deposits of the lower subformation of the Zhilandinsky formation of the Upper Proterozoic; structural confinement of mineralization to large faults along which there was a movement of plutogenic hydrothermal solutions forming mineralization, and areas of metamorphically altered rocks, as well as aureole zones of Pb, Zn, Ag, Cd graphite quartz, phyllites and the other shales of the Zhilandysay and Kumolinsky formations, dispersion zones of Cu, Mo, V, Ag, Sc, Ye and REE near the Kyzymchek fault. The established criteria and features can be used when organizing geological exploration work in the search for polymetallic mineralization within the Maityubinsky anticlinorium in zones adjacent to deep mantle faults.

Title: Technological conditions for ensuring the stability of the array of enclosing rocks during the fastening of mine workings
Authors: Khalikova E.R., Demin V.F., Demina T.V., Syzdykbaeva D.S., Zairov Sh.Sh.
Abstract: Ensuring the stability of the array of enclosing rocks during the fastening of mine workings is possible only if there is a highly efficient technology for conducting and maintaining workings. For fixing the mining, taking into account the technological stratification of coal-bearing massifs, a method using anchor fastening technology is recommended. The effect of the proposed method of fastening workings is that high reliability of fastening is ensured, and the volume of labor-intensive processes to combat the collapse and stratification of rocks is reduced. The stability of the contours of preparatory workings, taking into account their stress-strain state, depending on mining, geological, and technological factors of factors using the finite element method, is investigated. The boundaries of the area of inelastic deformations are determined by the method of successive loadings. The parameters of deformation of the lateral rocks of the mine workings from the angle of incidence of the formation and the depth of anchoring are considered.
Keywords: mining, fastening parameters, geomechanical processes, anchorage, manifestations of rock pressure, technological schemes.

Title: Exploring the Impact of Plasmonic Nanoparticles on Photoluminescence of Er³⁺ -Doped Sodium Zinc Tellurite Glass for Solid-State Laser Applications
Authors: Nur Nabihah Yusof, Muhammad Noorazlan Abd Azis, Nurulhuda Mohammad Yusoff
Abstract: The present work compares the impact of embedding silver (Ag), gold (Au), titanium (Ti), and titanium nitride (TiN) nanoparticles (NPs) on the absorption, photoluminescence, and Judd Ofelt properties of erbium-doped sodium zinc tellurite glass (TNZE), known as reliable solid-state laser media. Ten absorption bands of Er3+ ions in the range of 400−1600 nm are attainable where their bands correspond to their own 4f transitions. Three prominent photoluminescence (PL) bands of Er3+ ions were observed at approximately 525 nm, 545 nm, and 630 nm, corresponding to the transitions 2H11/2→4I15/2, 4S3/2→4I15/2 and 4F9/2→4I15/2, respectively. TZNE with 0.15 mol% of TiN NP inclusion showed the highest PL enhancement factor about 35 times, followed by Ti (17 times), Ag (10 times), and Au NPs (5 times), accordingly. This enhanced PL can be attributed to the strong local field induced by the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of the plasmonic NPs lies within 490−630 nm, which assists the transitions of Er3+ ions. The Judd Ofelt parameter was calculated and the TNZE glass with 0.15 mol% of TiN NPs inclusion disclosed the highest spectroscopic quality with a value of 3.57, compared to the TNZE glass with Ti (1.19), Au (0.59), and Ag NPs (0.90) inclusions. This research revealed several potential glass compositions with plasmonic nanoparticles that are attractive for the development of solid-state laser materials.

Title: Optimal concentration of post-alcohol bard and microsilica in cement-sand mixtures determination
Authors: Lukpanov R.E., Dyussembinov D.S., Altynbekova A.D., Yenkebayev S.B., Talal Awwad
Abstract: The article presents part of the results of the study of the components of foam concrete made by the two-stage foam injection method, in particular, the influence of microsilica and post-alcohol bard on the setting time and strength of cement. The paper shows the methodology for determining the compressive and flexural strength, selection of the composition of components, analysis, and evaluation of setting times, and strength characteristics of the compared samples. During the study, laboratory experiments were performed to better understand how these additives affect the behavior of cement mixtures. The studies carried out allow us to determine the influence of the modified additive components on the properties of foamed concrete during the production process. The setting time analysis presented in the study revealed that increasing the concentration of the additive significantly reduced the setting time performance of cement. With increasing the content of microsilica and post-alcohol bard at 10% and 30% of the cement weight, the setting initiation and completion times are significantly reduced. To evaluate the change in strength, samples were made and tested in compression and flexure at ages of 3, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days of normal moisture curing. According to the results, it was found that the additive, by accelerating the curing, promotes strength improvement both at an early age and at the design age (28 days). The experimental results showed that the flexural and compressive strength of the material increased as the concentration of the additive increased. The maximum increase in flexural and compressive strength was recorded at additive concentrations of 10% and 30%. This indicates the important role of additives in the strengthening of materials and their potential application in construction. The additive showed an optimum positive effect, therefore, the use of this percentage of additive is the most effective for increasing the compressive and flexural strength of concrete.
