Kopishev (the internship at the University of Reading (United Kingdom)), S. R. Massakbayeva (the internship at Lund University (Sweden)). In 2018 a senior lecturer Baiken Amankeldi successfully completed a three-month scientific internship at the Institute of Catalysis Leibniz (Rostock, Germany).

The Department purchased laboratory and research equipment worth more than KZT 100 million under the 2015-2019 state program of industrial and innovative development (the abbreviated name in Russian: GPIIR-2).

In accordance with the Memorandum of cooperation between S. Toraighyrov PSU and LLP Pavlodar Petrochemical Plant, the company made repairs to the laboratories of the University and purchased laboratory equipment worth more than KZT 50 million.

Scientists of the Department M. A. Yelubay, Ye. Orazbekuly, G. S. Aitkaliyeva and D. T. Tolegenov have become the winners of the project competition held by the 2018-2019 Grant Financing of the Ministry of Education and Science in high priority fields of science: Rational Use of Natural Resources (including water resources), Geology, Processing, New Materials and Technologies, Safe Products and Structures. The project’s title is “The Development of Technology for Obtaining Highly Efficient Biodegradable Surfactants from Plant Raw Materials of Kazakhstan and Their Waste Processing Products”.

The Department is actively involved in all activities carried out in its fields of study. In May 2018 members of the Department took part in the national competition of Graduation works (M. Auezov South Kazakhstan State University, Shymkent), where the prizes were won as follows (Appendix 1):
