"From SIBUR's products, we chose propane-butane technical, which was created for municipal and technical needs. We proposed to process the gas by chemical catalysis. This method is environmentally friendly and effective. As a result, mechanical energy can be obtained, as well as an important component for synthetic oil.", – The participants of the Scrabble team noted that in 2021 they took part in the qualifying stage of the championship at the KuzSTU site.
