The article discusses the main directions of improving the management of municipal solid waste in accordance with the requirements of the concept of sustainable development. The concept of “solid municipal waste “is analyzed in its comparison with the concept of “solid household waste”. The problems associated with the functioning of the sphere of solid municipal waste management are emphasized. The tasks of the development of this industry for Russia in the near future are defined. Environmental control of MSW is difficult, since the main sources of MSW are households and organizations of municipal services of settlements. These sources are numerous, highly dispersed (scattered throughout the territory). Insufficient eco-cultural training and inadequate self-awareness of the population prevent the regulation of MSW flows and the spread of SD in everyday life. Therefore, the solution to the problem of solid waste should use an adequate methodology, including administrative regulation and systematic improvement of the level of ecological culture of the population.

The article is devoted to the analysis and evaluation of mechanisms of ecological and economic regulation of railway transport in the conditions of technological development in the interests of their improvement. It is indicated that Russia has developed a system of methods of environmental and economic regulation of railway transport. Attention is drawn to the insufficient effectiveness and efficiency of the current system of environmental and economic regulation mechanisms to encourage railway transport entities to technological modernization. The authors indicate the need to develop a comprehensive approach to the analysis and evaluation of mechanisms, taking into account their interdependence, dependence on internal and external factors, risks of technological development of the transport industry, and the impact of each mechanism on the environment. The article proposes to analyze and evaluate the mechanisms of environmental and economic regulation of railway transport based on the analysis and assessment of their contribution to the goals and objectives of state environmental policy at all levels (national, regional, industry, object). To analyze and evaluate the mechanisms of environmental and economic regulation of railway transport in the interests of implementing the state environmental policy in the context of technological development, an algorithm and indicator for analysis and evaluation are proposed. The authors draw attention to an important element of the analysis and evaluation of the mechanisms of environmental and economic regulation of railway transport-an assessment of the environmental and economic effects of the introduction and use of mechanisms. An algorithm and indicator for evaluating the integral ecological and economic effect of the introduction and use of mechanisms of ecological and economic regulation of railway transport are proposed. The proposed approach is aimed at improving the system of mechanisms for environmental and economic regulation of railway transport, taking into account the environmental imperative of technological development of the economy. The article is based on the results of research work on the topic No. 7280-20 «Improving the mechanisms of environmental and economic regulation of the turnover of fecal waste of railway transport», performed by the authors in 2020.

he current scheme for the turnover of human waste is imperfect and has a number of serious problems that lead to the risk of pollution of the surrounding natural environment, the emergence of threats to human health, the accumulation of waste water that is not suitable for further use. one of the aspects of the turnover of human waste is the turnover of fecal waste of railway transport. The article develops the topic raised in the research work on the topic No. 7280-20 «Improving the mechanisms of ecological and economic regulation of the turnover of fecal waste of railway transport», carried out by the authors in 2020. A quantitative assessment of the volume of fecal waste is made, the ways of its utilization in a number of countries are described, the current legislative norms of the Russian Federation that regulate these processes, the existing turnover schemes, in which there are significant amounts of different chemical composition and possible ways of using sewage sludge. possible ways of processing are described, based on the existing world experience and theoretical developments confirmed by experiments. the problems and risks of human involvement in the natural cycle of these wastes are considered, while the ambiguity of the situation and the lack of the only correct solutions are noted. The purpose of the article is to consider the technological directions and techniques that can be useful for creating technologies for processing this material into a competitive product and choosing priority directions in the processing of fecal waste. Special attention is paid to the waste generated during the operation of railway passenger transport and the design of the technological chain that allows more efficient processing of these wastes and minimizes the negative impact on the natural and man-made environment.

The directions of the ecological-oriented development of enterprises of the agro-industrial complex have been analyzed through the implementation of the principles of rational resource consumption. The purpose of the article is to form the scientific basis for the effective use of non-renewable resources by enterprises of the agro-industrial complex in modern economic conditions. A study has been conducted on the causes of waste accumulation in agricultural enterprises and the stages of the greening mechanism of the enterprise functioning have been analyzed. The mechanism of greening the functioning of an enterprise has been considered on the basis of an analysis of the stages, which implies the consistent introduction of technologies and equipment, which makes it possible to reduce the negative impact of agricultural enterprises on the environment.On the basis of the developed general strategy of the enterprise in the field of resource consumption, two models of resource management of an agricultural enterprise have been presented through the use of insourcing and outsourcing tools. The model using insourcing tools assumes the reorientation of the company’s own assets, that are not used in production activities for the cleaning and processing of secondary resources. The model with the use of outsourcing tools assumes the involvement of third-party organizations for the collection and processing of waste in secondary resources. The range of effective implementation of the proposed models in the activities of an agricultural enterprise has been determined. The importance of advanced management training in the field of agricultural economics in the interests of sustainable development of the agro-industrial complex has been denoted and proposals from the State University of Management (SUM) in this area have been presented. The Department of Environmental Management and Environmental Safety has proposed the preparation of masters for the implementation of all activities stipulated by the educational standard in the field of agro-ecological management. The structure of the proposed educational program “Agroecological Management” contains disciplines (modules) of a theoretical and applied nature, that are relevant for the study by specialists of the agro-industrial complex in accordance with the need to solve modern environmental problems.
