The State Intellectual Property Service of the Ministry of Finance and Economy of Turkmenistan registered the copyright for the technology &ldquo;Innovations in the field of regeneration of thick liquid diethylene glycol using alternative energy sources&rdquo; and issued a certificate, the electronic publication &ldquo;Altyn Asyr&rdquo; reports.

The project, created with the participation of employees of the Laboratory of Production and Energy Saving of the International Scientific and Technological Park of the Academy of Sciences of Turkmenistan M. Khudaiberdyev, R. Esedulayev, D. Gadamov and A. Pirmedov, is aimed at increasing the efficiency of diethylene glycol extraction at oil and gas condensate fields.

Water vapor in natural gas under certain pressure and temperature conditions forms methane hydrates, which can lead to clogging of pipelines and damage to equipment. To prevent these problems, diethylene glycol is widely used as a natural gas dehydrator. The importance of the invention is due to the need to ensure absorption at a level of 99% or more.

Thus, this technology will become an environmentally friendly and cost-effective solution that will not only increase the efficiency of natural gas drying, but also contribute to the sustainable development of the energy sector.

President Serdar Berdimuhamedov arrived at the Akhal-Teke International Equestrian Complex, where he took part in the celebrations dedicated to the Independence Day of Turkmenistan.

During the holidays, Turkmens have been holding competitions of the best Akhal-Teke horses for centuries, which have become a symbol of returning to their origins, customs and traditions of their ancestors. This bright and spectacular performance is not just a competition of the best representatives of the unique and ancient Akhal-Teke breed, but also a genuine hymn to the unique beauty and grace of the &quot;heavenly&quot; horses.

Equestrian competitions also allow riders to demonstrate their skills and bravery. The proverbs and sayings &quot;A horse is the wings of a horseman&#39;s soul&quot;, &quot;A horse is known at the races, and a man is in battle&quot;, &quot;A horse is a friend of a horseman&quot;, &quot;Get up in the morning, visit your father, and then your horse&quot; are a tribute to the great respect and reverence of the steed by the Turkmen people.

The Ahal&ndash;Teke horse breed is the result of the labor of our ancestors, bred on the ancient Turkmen land. &quot;Paradise&quot; horses, which have become the property of human civilization, are recognized as elite among all other breeds of horses in the world. These delightful creatures are distinguished by dedication, exterior beauty, agility and endurance. They are the pride of the nation and the &quot;wings of its soul.&quot;

Today, the state is creating the necessary conditions for the development of horse breeding and equestrian sports based on the achievements of modern world practice in this field.

President Serdar Berdimuhamedov pays great attention to the large-scale work carried out in the industry, which is put on a scientific basis. The great merit in this noble cause belongs to the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov.

The establishment of the International Association of Akhal-Teke Horse Breeding and the location of its headquarters in our capital, Ashgabat, opens up broad prospects for building ties and strengthening close interstate cooperation in this area. The construction of modern equestrian complexes, educational and scientific centers, and stables in the velayats of the country, meeting international standards, contributes to the organization of tireless and selfless work of horse breeders at the proper level. Along with this, great importance is attached to the training of highly qualified specialists, in particular, the establishment of the International Academy of Horse Breeding named after Aba Annaev in the city of Arkadag gives a new impetus to the development of the profile industry, multiplies the glory of Akhal-Teke horses.

Special training centers are also being created to train jockeys and professionals to train horses for horse racing. The Ashgabat Equestrian Complex with an open arena, which is designed for show jumping competitions, provides significant assistance in the development of equestrian sports in the country. In addition, the state takes care of improving the life and working conditions of industry workers.

Domestic horse breeders are doing everything possible to preserve the purity of the breed of Akhal-Teke horses and increase their livestock. Work is being intensified on the development of horse breeding and equestrian sports in the independent Homeland, the exchange of useful practical experience and constructive cooperation with foreign countries. The inclusion of the art of Akhal-Teke horse breeding and traditions of horse decoration as one of the elite types of Turkmen art in the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Mankind by UNESCO has further increased the world fame of Akhal-Teke horses, considered a masterpiece of national and world culture.

On September 27 of this year, the &quot;paradise&quot; horses once again showed themselves in all their glory at the festive parade that took place in the capital to commemorate the 33rd anniversary of the independence of the Motherland.
