Currently, there are existing technologies for high-temperature waste disposal, which use the resulting gas as fuel for recycling newly formed waste. However, the composition of waste is not constant, and contents of their components are different, thus, the need for fuel gas for burning is not stable. Therefore, such gas is constantly lost. Thus, the purpose of the article is to present the study results of the energy efficiency of high-temperature waste disposal technology, which includes low-temperature separation of the resulting gas mixtures, which allows accumulating fuel products. By means of numerical simulation an analysis of the functioning of energy-technological facility of separation of multicomponent hydrocarbon mixtures with the subsequent optimization of its parameters in order to improve its efficiency and decrease energy costs for waste gasification was performed. For this purpose, the classical approach and generally accepted thermodynamics relations were used, including the Peng-Robinson equation of state for the description of coefficients of heat-physical characteristics of working bodies. The complexity of calculation of multicomponent systems (with three and more components) does not allow application of the state diagrams. Thus, for the simulation of heat-physical characteristics the REFPROP program was employed. The energy efficiency of the proposed technology of energy resources production at waste utilization was shown. The amount of products obtained by the facility is equal to 5.242 kg/hour of the fuel product No. 1 with methane content of 99.98% and 54.76 kg/hour of the fuel product No. 2 with low quantity of methane. This confirms the economic efficiency of such technology of disposal.

The analytical models for calculating the performance of vehicles used to transport fertilizers have been developed. The durability of undercarriages elements is estimated with consideration of kinetic equations for determining the periods of nucleation and propagation of cracks. The formulas for determining the durability of П-shaped thin-walled sections as the sum of the periods of nucleation and subcritical growth of corrosion-fatigue cracks in metal structures of vehicles, depending on the conditions of operation, are applied as well.

The article presents the results of the study of factors influencing the amount of waste generated within tourist destinations. By means of dispersion and regression analysis functional dependencies were established. They allowed determining the connection between the factors and amounts of waste generation within tourist destinations. The established functional dependencies allowed forecasting the amount of waste generation within the territories of tourist activities. The authors determined that the factors influencing the amount of waste generated within tourist destinations are the number of tourists and excursionists, GDP per capita, number of population. 3D surfaces built in the program Surfer made it possible to assess the influence of different combinations of factors on the process of waste generation. A mathematical model of the process of waste generation within the territories of tourist destinations was built in order to help to create efficient waste management systems within the territories of tourism development. ecological safety, waste management, solid municipal waste, impact of tourism on the environment, sustainable development.

The processes of supplying natural gas are accompanied by significant losses. In this regard, the complex problem of minimizing losses and improving the efficiency of energy use is very relevant. Steel pipelines for transportation of oil and gas often cross the tracks or are located parallel to the lines of electric power transmission lines of alternating current. Most dangerous from the corrosive point of view of the combination of the chemical composition of the soil electrolyte and the vagal current density were established.
