Education Program on Physics and Chemistry for Non-Equilibrium Processes at the Interfaces between Solid-Liquid-Gaseous Media

The training on Non-equilibrium processes in allocated areas in physics was primarily developed by Anton Antonov (1934-2021) from 1984-2011. During this time, physics students at the South-West University "Neofit Rilski" in Blagoevgrad were trained. Oleg Mosin (1966-2016) at Moscow State University of Applied Biotechnology performed the education with a nonequilibrium process in physics and chemistry. The authors participated in a program for laboratory experiments on non-equilibrium processes. The processes are at the interfaces between solid-liquid-gaseous media. They also participated in scientific research and analysis of non-equilibrium processes under various natural and laboratory conditions. In the laboratory, conditions were created models near to natural environmental conditions. There are two main directions of study. The first direction involves the analysis of laboratory effects in corona gas discharge at the interfaces of air-solid surface and air-liquid medium-solid surface. The photographic registration method used is called electrophotography. Antonov and co-authors obtained electrophotographic images using a polymerized methacrylate film on a metal substrate rather than a photographic film. In the second direction, the analysis focuses on the discrete evaporation of water droplets placed on a solid surface inside a hermetic air chamber. The restructuring of hydrogen bonds between water molecules is analyzed. The obtained spectra are called the Non-equilibrium Energy Spectrum (NES) and the Differential Non-equilibrium Energy Spectrum (DNES). In the second direction, analyses are conducted using test samples and control samples. During the training, students acquire skills in analyzing non-equilibrium media in air-liquid medium-solid surface systems using methods such as infrared spectroscopic analysis, statistical analysis, measurement of electrical parameters of liquids, pH, and oxidation-reduction potential (ORP). Electrochemical studies are conducted on various types of water in accordance with Ordinance No. 9/2001, Official State Gazette, issue 30, and decree No. 178/23.07.2004 of Council of Ministers, Bulgaria, about the quality of water, intended for drinking and household purposes.
