The increase in the population of large cities leads to the need for residential buildings, office space, leisure facilities, etc. leads to an increase in new construction. The city cannot constantly develop in terms of space as it is limited by the territory allocated to it in the framework of the cadastral division of the territory and it cannot grow indefinitely in breadth. That is why there are various programs for urban development, such as renovation, redevelopment of industrial areas and reconstruction of existing buildings. Also in recent years it has become popular to use different environmental standards in the design and construction of new or reconstructed buildings. This article will focus on the redevelopment of industrial areas with the development of underground space from the perspective of Fitwel ecological standard.

The article considers the potential of atmospheric pollution by a combination of certain average annual values of microclimatic parameters and the range of their changes. Numerical methods for solving the turbulent diffusion equation are used in the construction of research models of various scales. An important place among them is occupied by methods of component-by-component splitting. With their help, it is possible to solve not only direct, but also inverse (conjugate) problems. The presented program allows calculating one-time concentrations of impurities under various meteorological conditions based on data on sources of impurity emissions and local conditions and provides for the possibility of constructing a topo-base of the settlement platform.

The purpose of the full-scale investigations under the conditions of a pipe electric-welding production in operation was to obtain the necessary amount of actual data characterizing the features of the formation of aerosol emissions, their localization and treatment. During the investigation, the three main groups of factors were considered: the technological factors specifying the features of the technological process of pipe production, the technological conditions factors reflecting the power, frequency and composition of aerosol emissions, the operational aerodynamics of the ventilation systems for localization, removal and treatment of emissions.

The increasing problem of the formation of ash dumps in the Rostov region dictates the need to search for environmentally friendly methods of waste disposal in the heat and power sector. In this article, the ash and slag waste of the Novocherkassk GRES is considered. We analyzed the chemical and fractional compositions of the ash-slag mixture formed at a coal-fired thermal power plant and proposed the use of ash waste with a size of 10-100 microns in road construction as a micro-filler. To study the strength of the road surface using ash microparticles, we manufactured and tested cubes of modified concrete mixture for compression using a press machine. The obtained result showed that the use of ash as a micro-filler in concrete does not affect its strength in any way. The tests of control samples with the use of ash wastes showed an improvement in the water resistance and frost resistance of concrete while maintaining its strength.

The article discusses the selection and evaluation of energy-saving technologies for metallurgical production. Alternative energy sources are ordinary natural phenomena, inexhaustible resources that are produced naturally. Such energy is also called regenerative or "green". The article assessed the climatic characteristics, landscape, level of development of the territory of the location of the research object, analyzed the possibility of using solar and wind energy, hydropower, waste energy, low-potential energy using secondary energy resources. An engineering system based on the use of regenerative heat exchangers or economizers was proposed, which converts the heat of the exhaust gases from the electric steelmaking production into energy used for heating or hot water supply.

The radiation-temperature dependence for fresh water in the temperature range of 30-50 degrees Celsius is experimentally investigated. It is established that the radiation temperature of the water surface on the waves of the millimeter range is determined exclusively by the effective temperature of the skin layer.

The problem of atmospheric air pollution in the regions is considered. Attention is paid to the development and implementation of automated air pollution control systems. The developed information and analytical system has a two-level system and consists of two subsystems: a city information system and a regional information system. The proposed software allows you to perform calculations of surface concentrations of pollutants with the formation of a data bank, as well as the construction of maps of pollution in the region and histograms of the distribution of the level of adverse effects of atmospheric pollution on humans.

The dependence of the radio brightness temperature of water on the kinetic temperature in the temperature range of 50-90 degrees Celsius in the gigahertz frequency range has been experimentally investigated. It is established that the change in the radio brightness temperature of the water surface, depending on the kinetic temperature, is essentially nonlinear. The radiocontrast in the studied temperature range makes it possible to effectively detect thermal contrasts of the surfaces of hydro-objects.

The paper presents the results of experimental studies on increasing the settling rate and reducing the solid phase in the clarified layer during settling of a solution of sulfuric acid leaching of heavy metals from galvanic sludge. For this purpose, it is proposed to use a monoethanolamine vinyl ester copolymer with sodium or potassium methacrylate as a flocculant. This flocculant works well in a wide range of pH of the solution medium, unlike the well-known and widely used polyacrylamide flocculant. The increase in the efficiency of settling is achieved due to the fact that the flocculant in question makes it possible to simultaneously flocculate positively and negatively charged particles due to the presence of various functional groups in its composition. The use of the proposed flocculant will ensure a more complete extraction of heavy metals from galvanic sludge, which reduces the risk of environmental pollution and their reuse in industry.

Еxpedition studies were conducted in order to take samples in the components of elementary landscapes - precipitation (snow), surface waters, roadside dust, soil, bottom sediments and sediments at the water's edge along the route of Shakhty (Eastern Donbass) – Margaritovo village (coast of Taganrog Bay) in the Rostov region. In the selected samples, the mass concentration of oil products (OP) was determined, the analysis of which showed that road dust and snow are one of the sources of soil pollution, surface water and bottom sediments. The following sequence of oil product content levels has been revealed as they decrease: road dust → soil → sediments at the water's edge → bottom sediments → snow → surface water, which persists at almost all but one station. The content of oil products in the soils of the region should be estimated as varying from acceptable to average, while the surface waters contained this pollutant in concentrations below the MPC for the waters of fish farms.
