INFLUENCE OF AIR TRANSPORT ON THE ENVIRONMENT

In the modern world, aviation plays an extremely important role because it allows us to cover thousands of kilometres quickly. Every year, more and more new airlines are created, trying to win the favour of passengers. Aviation serves almost all points of the globe. The main task of the industry is to ensure the rapid and sustainable development of aviation technology and infrastructure and to adapt existing capacities to new opportunities for their operation. Air transport is an integral part of the modern system of economic relations.

INVESTIGATION OF THE INFLUENCE OF FINELY DISPERSED SOLID SUBSTANCES OF THE ATMOSPHERIC AIR ON HUMANS

An analytical study of the impact of solids contained in the air of urban areas on human health was conducted. Based on the analysis of the database of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development and the State Statistics Service of Ukraine on the emissions of substances into the atmosphere, it was established that the effects of solids on humans depend on particle diameter, morphological and physicochemical characteristics.

ANALYSIS OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF CONSTRUCTION BY ASSESSING THE CARBON FOOTPRINT OF BUILDINGS

The paper presents a methodology for carbon footprint assessment of buildings according to the current European standard. The analytical formulas are proposed to assess the carbon footprint through emissions calculation for the building life cycle including extraction, transportation, and processing of raw materials, construction and installation process, operation, maintenance, and repair, as well as liquidation and disposal. Beyond the life cycle boundaries, the possible benefits from recycling and reuse of building components and materials are considered.

Енергетичне використання осадів стічних вод у цементній промисловості

The paper presents the results of sewage sludge and carbon mud waste analysis. The conception of complex thermal utilization of sewage sludge and carbon mud was shown. On the basis of our study a granulated alternative fuel was created. Alternative fuels from sewage sludge co-processing help to reduce the usage of natural fuels in the cement industry and decrease the amount of unused waste.

Development of logistics in Ukraine: environmental dimension

The article summarizes the preconditions for the environmental paradigm formation. It has been set up that implementation of the environmental paradigm has been mostly held in sustainable development doctrine that being an economic theory has stimulated the progress of logistics in the direction of "green" logistics. The evolution of the "green" logistics concept has been researched in retrospect. Determinants that will have an impact on its future development have been identified. The development of logistics industry in Ukraine has been analyzed.
