The purpose of the work was the synthesis of catalysts based on cenospheres obtained from fy ash and testing their activity in hydrocarbon processing: oxidative cracking of fuel oil and oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde. Collection of microspheres is carried out from the water surface of the pond-ash dump of thermal power plant (TPP-2, Almaty), working on the coals of the Ekibastuz coal deposit (Kazakhstan). Oil of Zhetybai oil field (Kazakhstan), commercial fuel oil and M-100 grade fuel oil were used as cracking raw materials. It was found that the catalysts synthesized are effective for producing light gas oil by cracking. Symmetrical decomposition of high-molecular hydrocarbons contained in the fuel oil was found to be associated with the formation of alkenes and alkanes of homologues, starting with heptene-1 and heptane and ending with octadecene-1 and octadecane. With the simultaneous action on the cracked molecules of the active centers of the optimal catalyst and atmospheric oxygen, a synergy was established in the yield of the middle distillate fraction. It was shown that for the processing of hydrocarbons by catalytic cracking is very effective to pre-conduct electromagnetic effects on the feedstock. The conditions for isolating aluminosilicate microspheres of a certain dispersion and fixing iron molybdate to them have been optimized. The developed Mo-Fe catalysts were tested in the process of methanol oxidation with oxygen. Under optimal conditions, the degree of conversion of methanol was 99.8 % with a selectivity of 100 % conversion of methanol to formaldehyde. The catalyst showed its stability over time and in the studied temperature range (270°С - 450°С).
