Impact of EU carbon border adjustment mechanism on the economic efficiency of Russian oil refining
- Authors:
- Vladimir L. Ulanov

The carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) leads not only to the expected environmental changes, but also to the transformation of market environment. The study estimates the losses of the oil refining sector from the introduction of CBAM for the export of oil products from Russia to the countries of the European Union. An approach to assess the impact of CBAM on the cost of oil products has been formed and the mechanisms of its impact on the economy of Russian oil refineries have been identified. The study was carried out on the basis of actual data on the volume of greenhouse gas emissions in accordance with the current rules of the European emissions trading system. Decomposition of assessments of the CBAM impact was carried out into direct and indirect effects, as well as the effect of adaptation. It is shown that with the introduction of the CBAM mechanism, the prices of oil products in the domestic market will be determined not only by the logistical factor, but also by the requirements for environmental friendliness of oil refining. The introduction of CBAM will have a significant impact on the economics of oil refining, including refineries that do not export to the EU. The total impact of CBAM on the economy of Russian oil refineries will be about 250 mln dollars.

Topochemical kinetics of external friction during mechanical and thermal activation of the friction contact
The article deals with the process of contact interaction (relative displacement) of surfaces as a chemical reaction, the regularity of which is described by the Arrhenius equation. The kinetic characteristics of Gersi-Striebeck are obtained taking into account the mechanical and temperature conditions of the frictional contact. The process of interaction of materials in friction in the form of regularities of topochemical kinetics, realized due to the processes of formation and growth of adhesion adhesion nuclei, makes it possible to present the experimental characteristics in the form of theoretical dependences. These dependences reflect the entire range of variation of the coefficient of friction from the speed of mutual movement of materials, including at ultra-low sliding speeds. In the framework of this approach, the lubricating action of the medium prevents and blocks the reactions of the transition of nuclei to actively growing nuclei.

Simulation of diesel engine energy conversion processes
- Authors:
- A. S. Afanasev
- A. A. Tretyakov
In order to keep diesel engines in good working order the troubleshooting methods shall be improved. For their further improvement by parameters of associated processes a need has arisen to develop a diesel engine troubleshooting method based on time parameters of operating cycle. For such method to be developed a computational experiment involving simulation of diesel engine energy conversion processes has been carried out. The simulation was based on the basic mathematical model of reciprocating internal combustion engines, representing a closed system of equations and relationships. The said model has been supplemented with the engine torque dynamics taking into account the current values of in-cylinder processes with different amounts of fuel injected, including zero feed. The torque values obtained by the in-cylinder pressure conversion does not account for mechanical losses, which is why the base simulation program has been supplemented with calculations for the friction and pumping forces. In order to determine the indicator diagram of idle cylinder a transition to zero fuel feed mode and exclusion of the combustion process from calculation have been provisioned.

Synergetic changes of tribochemical properties in the heterogeneous systems containing surface modified metals
- Authors:
- A. G. Syrkov
In the article tribochemical properties and synergetic effects in lubricants with metal addi-tives, characterized by surface modifcations, have been analysed. The priority results of measur-ings friction coefficient (f) and friction force (F fr) are given for heterogeneous systems in the form of И-20 oil with solid Al-additives, contatiing dispersed aluminium, with surface-modified triamon (Т), alkamon (A) and ethylhydridsiloxane according to various programs. It has been educed that with all other things being equal, triamon underlayers introduction into Al-additives with the external chemisorpted ethylhydridsiloxane layer results in the decrease of F fr and f in the system in proportion to the Т-underlayer number reduction from three to one. It has been discovered that the use of low-molecular Т-underlayer in Al-additives is a delicate method of summand value regulation (from 10,8 to 13,2 Н), accountable for intermolecular forces in the boundary fritction equation in the tribological pair applied.
