The Department of Chemical Technology and Petrochemistry trains specialists in the field of production of inorganic substances and materials, who are able to model and optimize technological solutions in production based on international standards and domestic traditions, having knowledge in the field of oil, gas condensate and gas processing, ensuring competitiveness in the market.

The students of the Department have the opportunity to study in two directions: «Inorganic synthesis, production of pure reagents, mineral fertilizers, salts, acids and bases» and «Bases of the technology of petrochemical synthesis, oil refining».

The training program includes such topical disciplines as «Chemistry and technology of inorganic substances», «Chemical technology of acids and bases», «Chemistry and physics of oil, gas condensate and gas» and «Theoretical bases of oil, gas and coal processing».

Graduates of the Department will be able to work as chemists-technologists, managers at petrochemical enterprises, master-technologists at oil refineries, and teach at the university.

The scientific interests of the Department are related to the study of the technology of enrichment of ores and ore materials, the production of new inorganic substances and the processing of non-classical oil, oil residues in order to obtain alternative motor fuel and feedstock for petrochemistry.
