Presents the results of experimental and theoretical studies of burning old sleepers in the combustion chamber of the combined type. Theoretical studies were carried out using the program ANSYS FLUENT. The experiments were conducted on a specially designed stand. The experiments measured the temperature of the combustion products; complete gas composition at the outlet of the flue pipe; flow rate and the temperature of the air supplied to the furnace. The experiments showed that in addition to the products of pyrolysis and oxidation of wood (СН₂О, CH₃OH, etc.) in flue gases are highly toxic and the oxidation products of aromatic hydrocarbons. Intensification unterkuernach processes by combining the scheme for supplying air jets in the combustion chamber not solve the problem. The decision of the authors of a joint burning old sleepers in the furnaces of satellites connected to industrial power boilers with discharge of combustible gases in the furnace of this boiler is technically correct.

The article is devoted to the modernization of the existing models of electrofilters by the surface microdeformations method of collecting electrodes in the sticky boundary layer. One way of surface microdeformations is microcreasing. You can make different forms of regular microcreased surface: triangular, rectangular, trapezoidal, sine wave, hemispherical and threaded. Regular microdeformations have the same shape, which can be reproduced and counted. Surface microdeformations of precipitation electrode by the listed forms are possible in one and two mutually perpendicular planes. An electrofilter with microdeformed surface by triangular, rectangular, trapezoidal, sinusoidal, hemispherical and threaded forms allows to precipitate 5-6 times more of particles or to make more compact devices for purification of exhaust gases, thereby reducing its cost.

Problems of utilization of waste of odorant are considered. As a reagent for oxidation of waste of odorant ozone was investigated.

There were presented the main results of full-scale survey of the territory, the main purpose of was ecological and geological evaluation of the area adjacent to the waste storage on the secondary gerochemical dispersion of heavy metals ((Zn, Cu, Pb, Ni and so on). There was established distribution of values content of pollutants in the ground under different landscape conditions, the method of factor analysis of geochemical transposed matrix. Based on the data of field and laboratory research developed the concept of integrated waste management (IWM), considered as example of National Park “Smolensk Lakeland”.

Process of cooling of a paving of hot asphalt concrete mixes containing a rubber crumb at construction of highways is considered. The article presents the description of the mathematical model of calculation of temperature fields of pavement. One-dimensional unsteady heat conduction equations for each layer consist in a mathematical model. The boundary conditions on the surface of the top layer consider the heat transfer by convection and radiation. The boundary conditions of the fourth kind are between the layers. The temperature boundaries of the lower layer are constant. Testing the model is performed for limited and semi-infinite rods. The article presents the results of testing the mathematical model. Numerical solution of heat conduction equations held by the implicit scheme. Results of an experimental study of the thermal conductivity of asphalt concrete containing crumb rubber are listed in this article. In article the method of calculation of temperature of a surface of a paving is offered. The calculated values of temperature of a paving depending on the speed of a wind, solar radiation, thickness of a coat layer, a difference of thickness of a layer of hot asphalt concrete containing a rubber crumb, and reference temperature of a layer are presented. It is established that under identical conditions porosity of material of a layer has the greatest impact on change of temperature.

The results of the greenhouse research (2014) on growing girasol (Skorospelka variety) in soddy mesopodzol soil deliberately contaminated with nitric (HNO₃) and sulfuric (H₂SO₄) acids. Objects of study: plant growth and development dynamics, changes in the content of plant pigments in leaves, photosynthetic rate, quality of crops – content of dry matter, raw protein, total sugars, (in tubers), nitrates; the soil was examined to determine exchange and hydrolytic acidity, content of nitrate nitrogen, total nitrogen, exchange sulfur. It was confirmed that contamination of soil with HNO₃ at 1 to 9 MACs has a positive effect on the growth and development of plants, increase of the yield of tops and tubers, raw protein in tips and tubers and has no adverse effect on soil. The contamination of soil with H₂SO₄ at 1 MAC has no adverse effect on the growth and development of girasol, increases the content of dry matter in tops and tubers, the content of sugars in tubers and does not acidify pHKCl and HГ. Increasing the level of H₂SO₄ contamination to 3 and 9 MACs is toxic for plants and soil. The potential for use of girasol as a phyto-ameliorant on HNO₃-contaminated soils (3 and 9 MACs) and on H₂SO₄-contaminated soils (up to 1 MAC) was established. Products with 1 to 3 MACs are used for food and feed and products with 9 MACs are used for technical purposes.

In a series of elements that define the legal regulation, it is necessary to allocate a subject of this regulation. Current Russian environmental regulation contains gaps and contradictions, administrative barriers for industry and does not provide constitutional rights to a healthy environment. One of the reasons for the formation of such environmental regulation is the use as a subject of regulation of subject-object relationship between economic activity and environment. There was offered a new subject of legal regulation in the field of environment protection – subject-object ecological relationships. Introduction of ecological relationships allows defining a new coherent environmental management, providing favorable conditions for the environment and reducing unjustified administrative burden on industry.

Spotty soil contamination was registered in the territory. It was established that the maximum, field (minimum) and capillary moisture capacity figures depend on the content of heavy oil products in soil. The content of heavy oil products in soils is 2 to 3 times higher than the recommended norm for vegetation development and 10 to 14 times higher in comparison to background pollution figures in the north, west and up to the border of the SPZ 300 meters away matching the pollutants transfer path. Perennial ryegrass (lawn) plants in soil with the highest content of heavy hydrocarbons are higher than reference species, the yield is similar to that on the reference plot. The content of heavy oil products in the rest of the examined territory is at the background level. The content of oil products in ground water samples with ground waters high and close to the river indicates the ingress of contaminants into ground waters.

There were considered approaches to the development of standards of permissible residual oil content (SPROC) and certain petroleum fractions in soils. There was presented analysis of requirements SPROC in soils, developed for number subjects of Russian Federation (Republic of Komi, Khanty Mansysk District Yugra, Nenets Autonomous District, Republic of Tatarstan, Chuvashia Republic, Stavropol Kray, Tomsk Oblast, Krasnoyarsk Kray). There were revealed differences in regulatory values of permissible residual oil content and its transformation products into the same types of soils, characterized by the same sorption capacity, which indicates the absence of unified methodological approaches to establish requirements SPROC. There was offered methodology requirements development of SPROC in the soils, based on setting of quantitative and qualitative values in terms of soil condition in which the soil performs external and internal functions to ensure the preservation of the soil as the means of production, and avoid the negative impacts on the environment and human health. There was offered for setting of requirements for permissible residual oil and some of its fraction in soils on land category level is offered to use indicators that reflect likelihood of migrations of contaminants from the soil into components of environment. Petroleum products, oil hydrocarbons, soil, regulation, evaluation, soil function, intended use of land.

There was presented methodology of integrated assessment of environmental hazard, whose main elements are: identification of sources of environmental hazard; assessment of the degree of danger of existing environmental situation; analysis of environmental risks and the assessment  of the potential environmental hazard; integrated assessment of existing and potential environmental hazard in a particular area. There was presented systematization of sources of environmental hazard and methods of identifying the existing and potential sources of environmental hazard. Hazard degree assessments of existing environmental situation include landscape identification of the territory, the definition of the total anthropogenic load, and integrated assessment of environment pollution. Environmental hazards in a particular area is determined by the combined action of existing and potential sources of environmental hazards, as well as a degree of danger of existing environmental situation. The presented method was tested in the evaluation of environmental hazards in the Stavropol Kray territory. The proposed method allows carrying out a qualitative assessment of environmental hazard of enterprises and territories, the results of which form the basis for developing measures to ensure environmental safety.
