Key aspects, problematic issues, and the proposals for implementation of possible variant of an efficient system of labeling of road vehicles regarding an actual level of environmental hazard (LEH) in the unified system of coordinates are considered. It is taking into account vehicle age, technical condition and other factors, and based on available data on vehicle`s design and indicators, defined not only by the standards of the European Union (environmental standards “Euro”) but also by the standards of other regions of the world, in particular, the North American market. The proposed system can serve as a fundamental element in promoting the development of international trade and improving the quality of vehicle fleet upgrades in Ukraine, reducing the tax burden on citizens during the acquisition of vehicles (which makes it possible to invest in more modern and environmentally friendly vehicles), due to the introduction in Ukraine, similarly with the practice of EU Member States, of a differentiated and fair fiscal policy using the “polluter pays” principle, and other instruments to encourage the use of more environmentally friendly vehicles, differentiated restrictions and preferences for access to infrastructure, including the establishment by local communities of a flexible system of differentiated ecological zones for transport. The proposed universal, convenient and efficient LEH system, and appropriate labeling of vehicles of all major categories, will also stimulate the creation of a system of restoration of the ecological properties of vehicles in the country by the planned replacement of the replacement elements of the exhaust gas after-treatment systems, stimulate the “retrofitting” with the improvement of the ecological properties vehicles being in operation, and include in the same system both “traditional” internal combustion engines and technology of electric vehicles as well. Keywords: road vehicles, adduced pollutant`s emissions, labeling of environmental hazard (LEH).

This study presents ascertainment of priorities of automotive emission future state regulation based on analysis of the contribution of a comprehensive set of 64 known pollutants to aggregated toxicity of road vehicles with internal combustion engines powered by different fuels and electric vehicles as well. Aggregated mass emissions of pollutants are estimated for conventional 'Euro-0'-'Euro-6' vehicles and electric vehicles on a unified basis. In-use mass emission of pollutants and its relative toxicities that are established based on a ratio of the maximum permissible concentration of carbon monoxide and interested pollutant in the atmosphere is considered. Wear debris of pneumatic tires, road surface, and brake pads are also included. It has been discovered that aggregated mass emissions of modern:-cars with gasoline engines are only four times higher than the in-use emissions of electric vehicles;-cars with diesel engines are twice as high as those of cars with gasoline engines;-diesel-powered heavy-duty vehicles are only five times higher than the emissions of electric vehicles. The contribution of different types of contaminants to aggregated toxicity of road vehicles of different technologies is assessed. The results give essential substantiation and new ideas for future legislative regulation of emissions of various harmful substances by transport, also considering not yet regulated contaminants, and fuel quality standards as well. The results can also serve as the basis for an introduction of efficient and fair environmental labeling of vehicles that is directly proportional to the environmental damage in populated areas.

TsKBA. The borrowed data do not include high-alloy steels and other materials widely used in fittings manufacture. This has lead to the need to investigate tool durability if not within the fittings manufacture subbranch, then at least for the whole branch of chemical and petroleum engineering.Significant reserves are hidden in an inadequate organizational structure, or more precisely, in the absence of specialization in auxiliary production. Each plant is forced to manufacture the required packaging, technological equipment, or various tools, to overhaul its equipment, etc. The majority of the tool workshops of the firms represent small or medium subsections. The low concentration in the manufacture of products of the same type prevents the use of highly productive special equipment and modern methods for the organization of labor. In comparison with specialized firms, the output of these workshops is lower by 50-6070 and the cost of tool preparation higher by a factor of 3-4.To solve the problems discussed in the present article, the following measures must be taken: to develop and introduce at the large plants and combines of the subbranch specialized productions of process equipment and tools with the aim to increase the serial output of tools, to improve their quality, and to reduce the labor requirement and costs; to organize on cooperative principles the supply of all plants of the subbranch with tools, and to organize a specialized tool manufacture in the chemical and petroleum engineering branch.

The Concept of state policy implementation in the field of regulation of environmental properties of wheeled vehicles in life cycle is presented in the order of discussion. The purpose of the Concept is to determine the principles of creating a regulatory framework, tools, and consistent and systematic measures to implement effective public policy in the field of regulation of essential environmental properties of wheeled vehicles in life cycle to ensure: reduction of emissions of toxic substances in road transport and improve quality of atmospheric air of cities; decrease in other manifestations of man-caused pressure of road transport on the environment and people; in general, improving the living conditions of people in cities; reduction of energy consumption by transport; reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from transport; overall reduction of the negative impact of the transport and road infrastructure and related industries on the environment. Suggestions for terminology and definitions in this area are provided. Finally, ways and means to solve the selected problems are described. Keywords: wheeled vehicles, road transport, systems management, environmental properties, energy efficiency, environmental pollution, life cycle.
