The study of the history of engineering is not only due to purely cognitive interest in the past but also to the realization of a fact which has finally become inarguable to us: “one who does not know the past will not see the future.” This article is dedicated to the development of domestic asphalt production technology in the final third of the century. The subject and time were selected for both subjective and objective reasons. On one hand, we have not only been witnesses to but also participants in the events that took place in this area in the indicated period of time. On the other hand, the properties of the initial feedstock changed significantly during this period (mixed West Siberian crudes became the fundamental feedstock), which exacerbated the existing process problems and stimulated attempts to solve them. Data from monographs and reviews published in the central press and articles from the journals Khimiya i Tekhnologiya Topliv i Masel [Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils] and Neftepererabotka i Neftekhimiya [Petroleum Refining and Petrochemistry] were used, since the most important events and findings must have been included in these publications. Great attention is focused on the developments which significantly affected the subsequent evolution of asphalt production technology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
