OCCUPATION: Leading researcher.

RESEARCH ACTIVITIES AND INTERESTS: Theory and experimental works in the field of using the radiation-thermal treatment for solid heterogeneous systems, catalysts (supports) by the charged particles with the energy up to 2.0 MeV by using of electron accelerators (radiation-thermal catalysts' regeneration; radiation-thermal treatment for rendering harmless of toxic and unhealthy solid waste products of oil- and gas- processing; "cold" radiation-thermal synthesis of supported catalysts and modification of solid catalysts). Methods for radiation treatment of heterogeneous systems; radiation-thermal synthesis of high-purity materials for chemistry and electronics.

Physical and chemical aspects of radiation-thermal treatments of heterogeneous catalysts by by beam of accelerated electrons. It includes: investigations the nature of anomalies high rates of a selective radiolysis process for a number of structure on the surface and bulk phases in multicomponent porous media caused by beam of accelerated 0.5-2.0 MeV electrons; data and mechanism of oxidation radiolysis of compounds in pores and on oxides surfaces; investigation high temperature radiolysis of metals salts in a matrix and on the surface of oxides; data and analysis the influence of carrier nature on the kinetic parameters of carbon oxidation reactions and the decomposition of transition metal salts; previously unknown data on the reaction kinetics at phases boarder taking place under the influence of the beam of retarded electrons in oxide systems.

We are ready for cooperation to realize the specific programmes:
- to cooperate in the development of the technology for "cold" radiation synthesis and modification of supported catalysts;
- to jointly investigate the structure of catalysts after radiation-thermal treatment;
- to develop new radiation-thermal synthesis of high-purity materials.
