Problems of the treatment of highly mineralized water from surface sources. Today, more than 70% of rivers and lakes has lost its main function as sources of drinking water. An important problem is to find technological solutions that take into account the territorial features and allows you to create reliable purification of saline natural waters with minimal capital and operating costs. In the present paper presents the results of a study of the composition and properties of natural raw chocolate clay Altonaga field, studied its sorption properties.

In this article is reviewed the nature of organic hybrid nanocomposites. Promising directions in the field of organic hybrid nanocomposite materials will be methods for the synthesis of multicomponent materials, as well as the type of "net net" and "host-guest". The fundamental problem with the chemistry and physics of nanocomposites is dependent "structure-property". Solving this problem will move from research materials to their purposeful design.

Keywords: nanocomposite sol-gel technology, synthesis, nanoparticles.

ZnO nanorod arrays have been synthesized on silicon wafers by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique with different  temperature modes, without metal catalyst.  With this method   vertically aligned ZnO nanostructures  were grown at the quite low temperatures.  Modification of the method allowed to place silicon substrates in areas with different  ratios of concentrations of the molecules in the vapor phase. Photoluminescence spectroscopy and electron microscopy studies have shown that morphologies and optical properties of nanorods depends on different ratios of concentrations of the molecules in the vapor phase.
