Abstract

It was shown that sustainable power and mechanical engineering relies primarily on chemical transformation of matter, since a chemical substance (in the form of homo- and heteronuclear compounds of elements) is the most accessible type of substance on Earth. As a result, low-, oligo- and high-molecular and non-molecular (metallic and ionic) chemicals and products (fuels, polymers, alloys, glasses, etc.) are primary raw materials for production of thermal and electrical energy, as well as materials needed for alternative energy production. It was noted that the main drawback of the modern expert system for assessing the energy properties of substances used as fuels is not taking into account the influence of the chemical bond type on its energy and energy characteristics of fuels in general. It was shown that the solution to this problem is possible through the use of the unified model of chemical bond of elements, which considers any chemical bond as an overlay (resonance) of a 100% covalent bond with either metal or metal and ionic components, with a subsequent assessment of the effect of each of them on total energy of the mixed bond. This model is the fundamental basis of the System of chemical bonds and compounds (SCBC) in the form of the “Chemical Triangle”. The possibility of using the “Chemical Triangle” as a modern intellectual basis for digital systematization and creation of a database of energy characteristics of various substances based on homo- and heteronuclear compounds of elements was shown. A computer database was developed to assess the complex impact of composition and chemical bond type on its energy characteristics, structure and properties of substances and materials.

Highlights

  • Chemical energy is the most important component of general energy [1, 2]

  • The main types of materials that are needed for the implementation in practice [1,2,3] of these alternative methods of energy production are obtained on the basis of chemical transformations of a substance associated with the release and consumption of energy upon breaking and forming chemical bonds

  • General nature of changes in energy of homonuclear bonds of the Periodic system elements, located on the left side of the Chemical triangle" (CT) system of elements (Fig. 1) upon moving from the vertex C to the vertex M is characterized by the data of Tables 1 and 2

Summary

Introduction

Chemical energy is the most important component of general energy [1, 2]. It should be noted that nuclear (about 13.5% of the world's energy production), wind, hydro-, solar and other types of energy rely on chemical energy [1,2,3]. The main types of materials (metals, organic and inorganic polymers, including ceramics, glasses, binders, etc.) that are needed for the implementation in practice [1,2,3] of these alternative methods of energy production are obtained on the basis of chemical transformations of a substance associated with the release and consumption of energy upon breaking and forming chemical bonds. Energy (E) is a physical quantity that shows what work a body (or several bodies) can do, or the energy of a body. In the fourth (integral-differential) stage of development of scientific knowledge and the paradigm of multi-level organization of substance and matter [4,5,6] it is doubtful to call any energy a "physical quantity" ( there are chemical and other types of energy). Energy determines the unity of the nature of various forms of existence of matter and at the same time, their
