Germany wants to produce hydrogen from Russian gas

водород
The German energy agency Dena called the proposal of Russian colleagues to build a pilot plant at the Nord Stream exit point to produce the lightest gas in nature by pyrolysis of methane a “great idea.” It is planned to be used in power engineering and transport: it is known that since recently, H2 is considered in Europe as one of the tools to achieve carbon neutrality. However, according to scientists, first, it is necessary to build a test site and carefully study the entire technological chain. Otherwise, such projects may turn out to be unprofitable and unsafe.

China laughed at Europe’s call to give up hydrocarbons

китайцы
At the end of January, the concept of so-called climate diplomacy was approved in Brussels. From now on, the European Union will not only develop green energy on its territory but also insist that the rest of the world also intensify this process. The EU plans to force Asian and African states to abandon hydrocarbons, in particular, by reducing investment in their production and processing.

Why Gazprom neft spent $50 billion on a delayed coking unit

Газпром нефть
Gazprom Neft announced the completion of another commissioning stage of the delayed coking unit at the Omsk Refinery. Behind this seemingly insignificant news is a real technological breakthrough. Russia is about to start producing needle coke, which is in great demand from metallurgical companies and which used to be supplied to our plants only from abroad. Forpost decided to find out whether this project is that important for the national economy and whether one of the flagships of the oil and gas industry will be able to get back the 50 billion rubles invested in it.

Citation one, citation two, that’ll make a Hirsch index. What’s wrong with our research articles

коллаж_научные_журналы_1_06022021
For decades, the domestic academic community has been trying to rapidly increase its scientometric indicators, primarily the citation rate of articles. However, we have not been able to achieve any tangible success although the number of publications in journals indexed by the leading scientific Internet search platforms Scopus and Web of Science has doubled in ten years. In 2009, the country issued 65,000 articles to the world; in 2019, it is almost 137,000.
