This article examines the process of digesting phosphorites in an acidic solution to create complicated and mixed fertilizers. This study focuses on improving the nutritional content of phosphorus fertilizers by utilizing mineral acids, such as phosphoric, nitric, and sulfuric acids. In particular, the research looks into how phosphate raw materials, such as poor-quality phosphorites from the Central Kyzylkum region, are treated to create fertilizers that are nitrogen-phosphorous (NPh), phosphorpotassium (PhP), and nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium (NPhP). Phosphorites are broken down by nitric acid in the process, yielding calcium nitrate salts and other byproducts that can be treated further. A scanning electron microscope was used in the investigation to examine the fertilizers’ surface microstructure. The findings emphasize how crucial it is to clean and neutralize phosphorus fertilizers in order to enhance product quality and lessen the amount of undesirable salts. The results offer insightful information about enhancing fertilizer output and raising agricultural productivity.

In this study, hexamethylenetetramine mono- and di(p-methoxyphenylacetochloride) synthesis is presented in a clear and effective manner. Under mild conditions, p-methoxyphenylacetyl chloride and hexamethylenetetramine undergo a synthesis reaction. By adjusting the reactant and reaction conditions, the mono- and di-substituted products were produced selectively. The reaction of 4-methoxyphenylchloroacetate with various amines is a nucleophilic exchange reaction, and it was found that these reactions can proceed under normal conditions at the liquefaction temperature of the solvent. Before carrying out these reactions, the properties of amines were studied briefly. It can be found that the activity of the hydrogen attached to the nitrogen atom of amines depends on the nature of the group attached to the nitrogen. This relationship was expressed by Menshutkin’s kinetic equation and Arrinius’ equations. In addition, it became known that the reactions can be carried out easily due to the activity of the electrons that are not involved in the bond. To study the reactivity of tertiary amines, uratropin was chosen and its 4-methoxyphenylchloroacetate was reacted at 1:1 and 1:2 ratios, and the products were isolated. When the spectra of the obtained substances were analyzed, it was proven that a new substance was formed with the presence of an absorption region characteristic of the N-substituted amine group.

The electrochemical conversion of CO2 into value-added aromatic carboxylic acids represents an emerging route for carbon utilization. This work investigates the regioselective electrochemical synthesis of ortho- and para-hydroxybenzoic acids (o-HBA and p-HBA) from CO2 using a stirred batch cell, supported by a phenomenological Aspen Plus (version 12) model to assess process-level behavior. Experiments conducted at −1.2 V vs. Ag/AgCl, 3 atm CO2, and 50 °C achieved yields of 58.4 ± 2.1% for o-HBA and 40.2 ± 1.6% for p-HBA, with a combined selectivity of 64.8%. Faradaic efficiencies were 76.2% (o-HBA) and 66.8% (p-HBA). A complete carbon balance, including dissolved inorganic carbon species, was established, demonstrating a single-pass CO2 conversion of 42.6% and an overall conversion of 74.8% when the recycle loop was considered. Aspen Plus simulations based on ELECNRTL(Electrolyte Non-Random Two-Liquid model) thermodynamics and RYield fitting reproduced qualitative trends but underpredicted yields (21% and 9% for o- and p-HBA, respectively), reflecting the limitations of non-kinetic modeling. Sensitivity analyses confirmed that both electrolysis temperature and electrolyte concentration substantially influence yields and purity. This work provides reproducible electrochemical data, process-level mass balances, and a validated phenomenological simulation framework for future scale-up studies.

Organic–inorganic hybrid crystalline materials formed in multicomponent aqueous systems are of interest because their phase behavior and physicochemical properties can be controlled by composition and crystallization conditions. In this study, the phase equilibria and crystallization behavior of the ternary aqueous Ca(ClO3)2·2CO(NH2)2–CH2ClCOOH·(C2H4OH)3N–H2O system were investigated over the temperature range of −24 to 60 °C using the visual-polythermal method. Experimental data obtained for the two boundary binary subsystems and eight internal sections were used to construct the polythermal phase diagram. The diagram revealed distinct crystallization fields corresponding to ice, Ca(ClO3)2·2CO(NH2)2·2H2O, CH2ClCOOH·(C2H4OH)3N, and a separate crystallization region associated with a previously unreported crystalline phase with the proposed composition ClCH2COOH·Ca(ClO3)2·(C2H4OH)3N. The solid phase was isolated from its crystallization region, washed with cold distilled water, dried to constant mass, and characterized by complementary Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM–EDS), thermogravimetric analysis, derivative thermogravimetry, and differential scanning calorimetry (TG–DTG–DSC), and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). The experimentally determined Ca2+ and ClO3− contents were reasonably consistent with the proposed composition, while FT-IR spectroscopy revealed characteristic chlorate vibrations and changes in the vibrational environment of the organic component. SEM showed predominantly prismatic and plate-like crystalline morphologies, and EDS confirmed the presence of Ca, Cl, O, C, and N. Thermal analysis demonstrated multistage decomposition, with comparatively good thermal stability below approximately 150 °C. PXRD revealed a diffraction fingerprint distinct from those of the starting components and the corresponding physical mixture. Preliminary indexing of 19 principal reflections was consistent with a tetragonal candidate lattice with a = b = 7.7411(5) Å, c = 24.7182(10) Å, V = 1481.2(5) Å3, and M20 ≈ 23.0. The crystallographic analysis is considered preliminary because the diffraction profile was reconstructed from the available pattern and was not subjected to complete structure refinement. Overall, the combined phase-equilibrium, compositional, spectroscopic, morphological, thermal, and diffraction data support the isolation of a distinct organic–inorganic crystalline phase with the proposed composition.
