The article presents data on the verification thermal calculation of the existing installation for moisture evaporation from petroleum products. The measures to increase its performance and reduce specific fuel consumption are proposed.

The paper presents the method of heat calculation of recovery stages for the plant of moisture evaporation from oil sludge. It enables to increase the plant power and reduce fuel consumption per one unit of evaporated moisture in heating boiler.

The paper discusses the organization and implementation of waste management activities based on territorial waste management schemes. The territorial waste management schemes of Vologda Oblast, Yaroslavl Oblast, and Arkhangelsk Oblast (Russia) were analyzed and compared. The sources of municipal solid waste formation, their composition, and hazard class were considered. The authors propose a new approach for comprising the territorial waste management schemes. The obtained results can be used when adjusting territorial schemes, establishing differential standards for the accumulation of solid municipal waste.
