Implementing a cluster-based method for managing solid waste in the coastal zone of the Black Sea

Abstract

The analysis of existing problems of intensively developing infrastructure of the coastal zone of the Black Sea in the field of accumulation of wastes is presented and the optimal ways of its solution at the initial stages of designing of the refuse processing enterprises are offered. The purpose of the work to show that the creation of a full cycle of recycling solid waste will significantly improve the economic and environmental performance of the Ministry of Ecology and Nature Conservation of the Republic of Crimea. Calculation of required industrial capacities of the rubbish processing enterprise is made, the approach in the field of the waste treatment, differing from the existing archaic methods of disposal and based on the cluster distribution is offered. Clustering will make it possible to carry out deep processing of raw materials, to reduce to zero the volume of burial of waste, to transport it to the place of final processing by railway and automobile transport, which will considerably simplify logistics. Such measures will significantly reduce the effect of negative impact on the environment, generate useful capacities in the form of heat and electricity for domestic and industrial consumption, and attract additional investments to the region, increasing the revenue part of the budget of the region as a whole. The proposed approach is well aligned with the national Ecology Project.
