Woody Forest Biomass: Problems and Prospects оf Sustainable Use

The article is devoted to the study of the state, problems and prospects of ensuring the sustainable use of woody forest biomass. Most of the bioenergy resources used in Ukraine for energy production are woody forest biomass. At the same time, there is a dangerous tendency to exceed the use of woody forest biomass above its potential. The norms governing the use of woody forest biomass contain various normative legal acts of Ukraine. However, the general concept of “woody forest biomass” is not defined in domestic legislation.

The Theory of Structuring Multifunctional Elements of Complex Systems

This article considers the problem of formalization of elements and binary connections of multifunctional data, which are components of cyber-physical systems. The concept of a free and active element of a complex system and its classes relatively interact with environment resources and consumer information messages. Six attributes of binary relationship elements such as information, material, energy, optics, management, and general have been classified. The table shows four classes of active interaction between elements of complex systems of signs.

STATISTICAL ASSESSMENT OF THE DYNAMICS OF CHANGES IN THE PM10 AND PM2.5 LEVEL IN THE AIR OF URBANIZED AREAS

This article addresses the issue of atmospheric pollution caused by solid particles in urban environments. The presence of PM10 and PM2,5 particles in the air of major cities and industrial areas worldwide has been examined. An evaluation of atmospheric pollution levels with PM10 and PM2,5 particles in Kostopil, considering current air quality standards in Ukraine and the European Union, has been conducted. The authors employed the gravimetric method to measure the levels of suspended dust particles (PM10 and PM2,5) in Kostopil from autumn 2022 to winter 2023.

The article presents the results of the analysis of the studies conducted on the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of household waste generated in the territories of several regional centers of Ukraine. The data on the component composition of domestic waste typical for Ukrainian cities are generalized. The influence of the quality indicators of individual waste fractions on the further choice of operations and methods of household waste treatment within the framework of the waste management system is analyzed.

AN INITIAL DATA-LIMITED MODELING OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES: CASE-STUDY OF THE VASYLKIV FUEL RESERVOIR FIRE

The paper presents the application of the Multi-Criteria Evaluation of environmental damage under the conditions of limited available data. War actions often cause damage to industrial facilities, which in turn impacts the environment. At the same time, access to such sites and information about the development of specific events may be limited or fragmented. To support the decision-making process in such situations, the Multi-Criteria Evaluation offers structured and transparent utilization of the known quantitative and qualitative information.

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.
