The possibility of increasing the reliability of assessing air pollution through the use of probabilistic methods is shown. Evaluation of quality indicators on a quantitative basis made it possible to find an error of the first and second kind in assessing the quality of the atmosphere. Based on the Bayesian approach, dependencies were obtained for estimating and predicting atmospheric pollution in the area of a city that does not have a stationary post, based on data from stationary posts in other areas.

The article describes an approximate analytical method for calculating the humidity regime of multi-layer building enclosing structures. The novelty of the proposed method consists in using an analytical dependence to determine the position of the possible condensation plane obtained as a result of the study of the function representing the difference between the partial pressure of water vapor in the considered section of the enclosure structure and the partial pressure of saturated water vapor at the extremum. The results of calculating the humidity regime of the external wall of a residential building under construction in the city of Samara, using a monolithic bespeschany expanded clay concrete with a density equal to 600 kg/m3, are presented. The assessment of moisture accumulation in the considered external wall both for the annual period of operation of the building, and for the period of months with negative temperatures, showed compliance with the regulatory requirements for heated rooms

This article discusses the calculations of the feasibility study for the expansion of housing construction in the city of Taganrog. The choice and justification of the number of storeys, design scheme, space-planning solutions for new construction for the development of design solutions is based on natural and climatic, urban planning, social and economic factors that are specific to each specific territory. To implement effective design solutions in housing construction, it is necessary to consider options for both new construction and reconstruction of the existing housing stock of the city. Technical and economic calculations for the reconstruction of existing residential buildings include determining the effectiveness of the demolition of old existing buildings, construction of new facilities of various functions in the liberated territories, modernization of existing residential buildings and other measures to improve the quality of life of the population living in a particular city. Effective design solutions for the development of housing construction in Taganrog require an economic assessment of possible options, which must be worked out in the pre-project documents, such as a feasibility study of the construction of objects.

Improvement of energy efficiency of buildings by minimizing heat loss inside the premises and optimizing energy consumption is an urgent problem. The solution of the problem requires consideration of the impact of climatic factors on buildings - firstly, it is necessary to ensure safe thermal insulation of external walls, and secondly, to use effective thermal insulation materials. Being essentially volumetric geometric figures of various shapes, buildings react differently to climatic factors, as their heat resistance directly depends on the shapes and volumes. The article analyzes the dependence of the heat resistance of urban buildings on their geometric shapes and volumes. Using the example of the Evolution Tower of the Moscow International Business Center Moscow-City, the heat loss of rooms located on floors with different heights was calculated and changes in the main climatic factors in terms of the height of the object were revealed.

The article is devoted to the issue of improving the environmental safety of highly urbanized territories. The article presents the results of field measurements of pollutants into the atmosphere from gas stations within the urbanized territories of cities of the Russian Federation. The largest part of the allocation of oil product vapors entering the local aspiration systems is associated with the operations of filling and emptying fuel storage tanks at gas stations. The results of field measurements of the values of hydrocarbon concentrations obtained on the basis of the values of maximum permissible concentrations of ingredients are presented. The conclusion is drawn on the feasibility of environmental protection measures to reduce emissions when finding housing in the border area of the sanitary protection zone (SPZ) of gas stations. To reduce emissions from gas station sources, it was proposed to equip the gas aspiration system of the gas feeling tank with an improved design of the absorption device. In order to reduce waste generation as a working agent in such devices, it was proposed to use wastewater with a certain amount of oil products from a local gas station treatment device. This approach also allows to reduce the negative anthropogenic impact of gas stations in terms of the formation of additional amounts of waste generated during their operation. Successful tests have shown reliable and efficient operation of the pilot plant with the proposed apparatus.

he article presents the results of evaluating the ability of activated sludge, saturated with anammox bacteria, to adapt to mesophilic and lower temperature operating conditions. As the main temperature regimes, temperatures of 30, 25, 15, and 13 ° C were selected. The system showed stable operation at temperatures up to 15 ° С with the highest degree of purification with respect to ammonium nitrogen - 0.33 mg / dm3. At the same time, the concentration of nitrites taking into account forced nitritation reached 0.07 mg / dm3. An additional increase in the efficiency of the system requires structural changes in the adopted technological scheme of the bioreactor, however, the introduction of an internal recirculation system of attached biomass (with load) inside the anammox department is considered as an essential element of the system that ensures stability

The article addresses issues related to the definition of particulate matter characteristics in the air of roadside areas. Fine suspended solid particles (TPM) of different size -10 and 2.5 μm are one of the main characteristics of atmospheric air quality. When monitoring the air environment on the maintenance of the firm weighed particles two indicators are used and normalized: PM2.5, PM10 are the firm weighed particles (English Particulate Matter, PM) with an aerodynamic diameter of 2.5 microns or less; Solid suspended particles with aerodynamic diameter of 10 microns or less. Dust particles from traffic are seen as an increasingly important source of air pollution, as the vehicle fleet is increasing worldwide, hence exhaust gas emissions, as well as particles from tire abrasion and road surface wear. Studies were carried out on the dust content of the roadside territories of the city of Volgograd. The article also pays attention to air quality indices, which will be used in monitoring the air environment of urban areas.
