Early life and education
Abaev was born in 1932, in Baku. Having finished his secondary education in Baku, he entered Azerbaijan State Oil and Industrial University (now Azerbaijan State Oil Academy). Later he continued his career working as a professor at the following institutes: Azerbaijan Oil Refining Scientific Research Institute, All-Union Scientific Research Institute of Polefins (Baku), Scientific Research Institute (Yaroslavl), All-Union Scientific Research Institute of Polymers (Dzerzhinsk, Gorky Oblast), Bioengineering Research Institute of the Russian Federation (Moscow). Abaev defended his Doctoral thesis in 1971. The same year he was elected a specialty committee member of Higher Attestation Commission of the USSR. Further inventions of Genrikh Abaev were implemented in the procedures such as: butyl rubber synthesis technology process, paraffin C4-C5 two-stage dehydrogenation, isobutylene hydration process based on molded cation exchange resin. Abaev had received numerous awards and honours for his investigation of new manufacture technologies.
Career
Abaev`s scientific work was mostly connected with the chemical engineering and biotechnological modeling (fluidized bed and pneumatic conveying, propylene oxidative ammonolysis, butyl rubber jet aeration, acrylic fiber synthesis, oil distillation, fermentation). In fact, there were 3 Doctoral and 19 PhD theses in Engineering Sciences defended under Abaev`s supervision. It was Abaev`s credit, that the new courses appeared at the Belarusian higher education institutes. The advanced courses were "Modeling and Design of Chemical Engineering Processes" and "Energy and Resource Conservation ". In 1997, he organized the Interdisciplinary Science Conference on Technology "Energy and Resource Conservation" (The Regional Energy Commission) at Polotsk State University. Abaev was the founder and the chairman of The Academic Board for Doctor`s thesis defense in Engineering Sciences in 1993. By the 2000, under his initiative the international contract with the French company ISL was made. The goal of that project was to develop a rapid analysis tool for oil. Later, the patent for that specific tool was obtained. Nowadays the tool is sold in 13 countries all over the world. Moreover, since 2002 Polotsk State University has been receiving quarterly cash awards from the invented tool sales.
