Practical significance: The urgency of the topic is determined by the specialization and cooperation of Ukraine in the world of crypt industry and all significant opportunities that this young industry opens. In addition, the willingness of private investors to take higher risks, comparing with classic investments, makes Ukraine one of the few areas that concentrates both unprofessional and professional investors. That fact gives some benefits to the starting crypt industry development. First of them- to go through the formation of an expert layer,second- to form a group of professional investors and the third one- to explore the impact of cryptographic investment on GDP and competitiveness index.

Growth poles in the Krasnoyarsk region: methods of identification and concentration of effects

The article examines the geographical distribution of economic effects from the implementation of large projects in the Krasnoyarsk region: municipalities are distinguished – growth poles and poles of acceptance of growth effects. Based on the Moran index and the volume of investments in fixed assets calculated for the municipalities of the Krasnoyarsk region, the municipalities – growth poles are identified, local specialization and specifics of projects are analyzed, as well as the impact of these factors on economic growth. Poles of acceptance of effects are allocated on the basis of the number of firms with "production" OKVED per capita, and also classified in accordance with the dynamics of direct and indirect effects manifested in the territory of the municipality. The geographical separation of the poles of acceptance of effects from the growth poles is noted. If the growth pole and the pole of acceptance coincide geographically, then this is a consequence of solving the related tasks of the project (for example, logistics) and does not contribute to the development of the local economy. The economic effects of the implementation of projects for the municipalities of the Krasnoyarsk region are minimal, and mainly affect only the transport, construction, and partly trade industries. More than 90% of the effects from the implementation of projects are concentrated in Krasnoyarsk, since the largest transport and construction companies in the region are registered here, and the main capacities of the manufacturing industry are located. A single and relatively small impact of projects is manifested for small industrial cities of the Krasnoyarsk region (Divnogorsk, Nazarovo), but the projects being implemented do not become an additional growth factor for cities. The level of concentration of firms with "production" OKVED allows us to identify large centers – potential poles of acceptance of effects, but does not guarantee that they are able to master this potential during the implementation of large projects.

Evaluation of biomedical industry technological innovation ability based on a grey panel clustering model.

Technological innovation in the biomedical industry is the basis for improving the core competitiveness of the biomedical industry and promoting the high-quality development of the industry. However, the technological innovation capacity of China's biomedical industry is not balanced, and there are great differences between regions. Therefore, accurately grasping the status quo of technological innovation in China's biomedical industry and assessing regional differences are of great significance and effect for the country to formulate targeted policies and systems. In view of this, this paper designs a two-stage biomedical industry technological innovation capability evaluation index system from the perspective of the innovation value chain. According to the panel data of China's biomedical industry from 2012 to 2018, a grey relational clustering model based on panel data is constructed and used to evaluate the technological innovation capability of China's biomedicine industry from two dimensions: the level of technological research and development and the ability to transform technological achievements.

Adjustment Effect and Optimization Strategy of Credit Structure under the Double Carbon Goal—Research Based on the Power Industry

This paper focuses on the power industry in China, through the construction of production function model, solves the optimization problem of high-carbon and low-carbon enterprises in power industry, and discusses the adjustment and optimization strategy of credit structure in it. The highlight of the article is to look at the impact of the inclination of credit resource allocation to the green and low-carbon field from a more holistic and dialectical perspective. Research shows that the credit mortgage rate adjustment policy is more conducive to the withdrawal of backward production capacity in high-carbon industries, while the interest rate policy is more conducive to expanding production capacity by supporting technological progress in new industries. When adjusting the high-carbon and low-carbon credit interest rates, adopting the “small-then-large” interest rate adjustment path with a gradually increasing range is more conducive to realizing the industrial structure adjustment and ensuring the power capacity supply at the same time. Therefore, in order to avoid the phenomenon of “moving carbon reduction” under the dual carbon goal, banks can consider the strategy of “focusing on interest rate instruments in the early stage and mortgage rate control in the middle and late stages” when formulating credit policies for the power industry, so as to help better realize the continuous transformation of old and new kinetic energy under the dual carbon goal.

The article examines the problems of supporting production capacities through the mechanism of industrial parks, and defines the main tasks of realizing this goal. Programs to support the relocation of enterprises from war zones and the role of eco-industrial parks in promoting the launch of industrial capacities are highlighted. The advantages of industrial parks for the relocation of industrial enterprises and incentives for the development of infrastructure and the creation of new jobs in the host region are emphasized. The peculiarities of the model of the eco-industrial park as a means of solving the problems of regional and sectoral development and its place in the implementation of plans for the restoration of industry are revealed. Pilot objects for the implementation of the EIP model have been identified. In the context of the development of eco-industrial parks, it is proposed to develop the production of dual-purpose products based on composite products from basalt and fiberglass on the basis of existing production facilities in Ukraine and Europe.

Proposing an Absorptive Capacity Framework of Small and Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) in Construction Industry

The demand of construction project is increasing from years to years. Therefore, to survive and growth well in the industry, technology and innovation need to be executed by the organisation as both aspects are known as a weapon which helps in enhancing competitive advantage. Consequently, organisation should have the awareness on absorptive capacity to allow such practice is possible. Absorptive capacity is known as a critical item within organisation in order to sustain, grow and compete in the market. In previous research, absorptive capacity had been used to analysis performance at different levels including individual, organisation, industry and country. However, many researchers focus only on large organisation rather than small organisation. Meanwhile, on the different dimension, many researchers outlined the current aspects in measuring absorptive capacity is focus on R&D orientation which is not suitable for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) construction organisation. Hence, this paper aims to identify suitable measurement in measuring absorptive capacity level among SMEs within construction industry. Based on the absorptive capacity measurement models synthesis, the researcher found that most of previous research used performance, employee abilities and organisation factors to measure absorptive capacity in the construction industry. This research also considered non R&D absorptive capacity measurement in manufacture sector due to limited reliable literature review in measuring absorptive capacity through its dimensions; acquisition, assimilation, transformation and exploitation. A proposed framework that represents absorptive capacity measurement among SMEs is established at the end this paper.

POLISH DEFENCE INDUSTRY – AMBITIONS AND PERSPECTIVES

Transformations of economies occurring in particular countries reduce the number of manufacturers producing the articles for the armed forces basing exclusively on national capacities of industry and scientific-research background. Consolidation and restructure processes have been used as remedies of defence sector for many years. Some of them are launched by the management boards and the other ones by decisions of majority owners, represented in the case of Poland by the State Treasury. A question arises, if the country defence sector could realise the hopes put on it, in present situation of the national defence industry and with its role in the system of national economy, and selection and quality of offered products, and the level of used technological solutions. Presented paper is an attempt to analyse the state of the Polish defence industry committed by authors representing two different subjects and directly connected with condition and building up the defence potential of Poland.

Spatial Patterns of Urban Innovation and Their Evolution from Perspectives of Capacity and Structure: Taking Shenzhen as an Example

Innovation is a key factor for a country’s overall national strength and core competitiveness. The spatial pattern of innovation reflects the regional differences of innovation development, which can provide guidance for the regional allocation of innovation resources. Most studies on the spatial pattern of innovation are at urban and above spatial scale, but studies at urban internal scale are insufficient. The precision and index of the spatial pattern of innovation in the city needs to be improved. This study proposes to divide spatial units based on geographic coordinates of patents, designs the innovation capability and innovation structure index of a spatial unit and their calculation methods, and then reveals the spatial patterns of innovation and their evolutionary characteristics in Shenzhen during 2000–2018. The results show that: (1) The pattern of innovation capacity of secondary industry exhibited a pronounced spatial spillover effect with a positive spatial correlation. The innovation capacity and innovation structure index of the secondary industry evolved in a similar manner; i.e., they gradually extended from the southwest area to the north over time, forming a tree-like distribution pattern with the central part of the southwest area as the “root” and the northwest and northeast areas as the “canopy”. (2) The pattern of innovation capacity of tertiary industry also had a significant spatial spillover effect with a positive spatial correlation. There were differences between the evolutions of innovation capacity and innovation structure index of tertiary industry. Specifically, its innovation capacity presented a triangular spatial distribution pattern with three groups in the central and eastern parts of the southwest area and the south-eastern part of the northwest area as the vertices, while its innovative structure showed a radial spatial distribution pattern with the southwestern part of the southwest area as the source and a gradually sparse distribution toward the northeast. (3) There were differences between the evolution modes of secondary and tertiary industries. Areas with high innovation capacity in the secondary industry tended to be more balanced, while areas with high innovation capacity in the tertiary industry did not necessarily have a balanced innovation structure. Through the method designed in this paper, the spatial pattern of urban innovation can be more precise and comprehensive revealed, and provide useful references for the development of urban innovation.

Глобальные тренды и целевые индикаторы экономического развития промышленных комплексов газодобычи в Арктике

The current stage of development of the world energy sector is characterized by high turbulence and dynamism of changes. The volatility of demand and prices for energy resources, increased competition in the global market, the evolution of the energy balance, the decrease in the role of traditional hydrocarbons and the progressive development of technological innovations significantly affect the efficiency of the implementation of the Russian gas complex in the Arctic. However, in addition to economic benefits, large-scale production of natural gas in the Arctic encompasses a wide range of issues: ensuring domestic needs for hydrocarbons and stable exports, minimizing environmental damage, organizing complex science-intensive industries and loading industrial capacities, developing transport and social infrastructure, creating new high- tech work places. In these conditions, long-term prospects and assessment of the development efficiency of complex industrial gas production complexes are determined taking into account environmental, economic, technological and social aspects. The analysis of the factors of instability of the world energy system and their influence on the efficiency of the development of gas fields in the Arctic zone was carried out. Target guidelines for the development of the Russian gas industry have been formulated in the context of national interests and priorities of socio-economic development and environmental safety. Indicators of economic development of industrial gas production complexes are proposed, takinging to account trends in the global energy market and the specifics of field development in the Arctic.

The resource potential of the enterprise as a factor of sustainable industrial development in modern economic conditions

Sustainable development is a concept aimed at striking a balance between social, economic and environmental aspects and is one of the most important challenges and priorities in the modern socio-economic system. The balance between economic goals and needs (industrial growth, efficient use of resources) and environmental goals and needs (biodiversity, natural resources, ecosystem integrity) is driven by productive factors. Thus, industrial growth may conflict with the protection of natural resources, and as a result lead to incompatibility of needs. The article considers an industrial enterprise as a system that includes various business processes providing production activities and are included in the economic turnover and resources required for production purposes. Increasing resource efficiency and participation in green projects are important opportunities for economic development. The importance of promoting a significant increase in the share of industry in employment and gross domestic product in line with national objectives to modernize infrastructure and modernize industries to make them sustainable, with increased use of resources, efficient and wider adoption of clean and environmentally sound technologies in industrial processes has been identified. Increased technological capacity of industries, motivation of innovation and a significant increase in the number of personnel engaged in research and development through public and private financing has been identified as an important factor in sustainable development. Since the modern economic conditions for the running of industrial enterprises are manifested in the emergence of technological and managerial innovations in the structure of resource potential in terms of development of innovative digital technologies, the concept of developing the resource potential of an industrial enterprise is proposed, including tools for self-optimizing economic actors and self-adapting business processes to the integration of digital technologies.

AN EFFECTIVE BIOSORBENT DERIVED N EFFECTIVE BIOSORBENT DERIVED FROM PRODUCTION WASTE ROM PRODUCTION WASTE FOR WATER TREATMENT: STUDYING OR WATER TREATMENT: STUDYING THE ADSORPTION OF SYNTHETIC DYES HE ADSORPTION OF SYNTHETIC DYES

Introduction. Eco-friendly disposal of food waste, in particular, nutshells and fruit kernels, is an important issue to ensure sustainable nature management. These secondary raw materials are the source of valuable polymeric materials, cellulose and lignin.Problem Statement. IGiven the capacity of the food industry in Ukraine and the amount of waste produced, the development of technologies for processing lignin-cellulose biomass is an important research and practical issue.Purpose. The purpose of this research is to study the adsorption properties of chemically modified biosorbent based on plant materials concerning synthetic dyes of different types and classes; to assess the feasibility of biosorbent production and efficiency of its application in water treatment.Materials and Methods. Lignocellulose sorbent (LCS) has been synthesized from non-wood raw materials by chemical modification with the use of phosphoric acid with the addition of urea in an aqueous media. The Fourier transform infrared and standard methods of plant raw material analysis have been used to determine the physicochemical characteristics of LCS. The adsorption of anionic (methyl orange, alizarin red S, eosin Y), cationic (methylene blue, neutral red), and nonionic (aniline yellow) dyes on LCS from aqueous solution has been studied in the batch mode.Results. The adsorption capacity of LCS towards cationic dyes (47.0–53.3 mg/g) is higher than that of anionic (22.2–36.9 mg/g) and nonionic (4.7 mg/g) ones. The adsorption kinetics have been adequately described by a pseudo-second-order equation. Adsorption of all classes of dyes on LCS is thermodynamically feasible, spontaneous, and endothermic process. The liquid by-product of LCS production contains 15% nitrogen and 10% phosphorus, so it may be used as a fertilizer. Conclusions. The proposed method for processing food waste provides obtaining effective sorbent and liquid NP-fertilizer. LCS removes both cationic and anionic pollutants from water, so it may be considered a promisingbiosorbent for water purification.

The use of mineral fertilizers in the main grain-growing regions of Kazakhstan

The publication is a brief analytical review of the use of mineral fertilizers in the main grain-sowing regions of Kazakhstan. The goal is to analyze the current state of their application in the Republic of Kazakhstan and grain regions, to identify the main hindering factors to develop recommendations for solving the existing problems. Methods - general scientific, analysis, synthesis, expert-logical assessment. Results – the article contains data on the consumption of fertilizers for the total area of arable land and for all categories of farms in the Northern region, the annual scientifically justified rate of the need, the production volume of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers. It has been determined that production of plant protection products is done at nonspecialized facilities. Many manufacturers are not interested in certification of their products due to the small market volume. The study confirms the underdevelopment of the mineral nutrition optimization system in the republic due to the high cost of imported mineral fertilizers and the lack of domestic industrial capacities for their production to meet the needs of the domestic market. One of the important problems, as the authors note, is the lack of the necessary material and technical base for conducting soil agrochemical analysis. Based on the current situation, Kazakhstan annually lacks about 10 million tons of high-quality wheat. Conclusions – introduction of precision farming technology, construction of new agrochemical laboratories, and training of relevant personnel are recommended. To receive subsidies, it is necessary to introduce a mandatory requirement for the availability of agrochemical cartogram. In the global consumer market, there is a growing trend in demand for organic products, which opens up prospects for the development of domestic production of environmentally friendly products and their export.

A system dynamics model for industrial symbiosis capacity formation

ABSTRACT Industrial symbiosis involves the coordination and cooperation of different production firms to exchange and reuse waste products as substitute input materials, reducing virgin material consumption and waste disposal. This work develops a system dynamics model to simulate the capacity investment and formation patterns of self-interested production agents involved in an industrial symbiosis network. The developed model can help decision-makers visualise the rate and dynamics of capacity formation and waste material exchanges in the system, test the effect of different capacity planning and incentivisation strategies, and investigate the impact of price disruptions. Numerical studies are performed based on a bread waste case study in Singapore. Various sensitivity analyses have been conducted and several important insights are obtained from the simulation results, including how a coordinated capacity formation model can be more effective than an uncoordinated one in the industrial symbiosis.

Экономические аспекты развития мировых рынков нефтепродуктов с середины XX века

The study of the development of the world markets of petroleum products in the period from 1950 to 2021 allows us to conclude that up to 2014 there was a steady increase in the total capacity of the world oil industry . The increase in capacity occurred against the background of a quantitative decrease in oil refineries and an increase in their production capacity. The decrease in the number of small oil refining units was accompanied by an increase in the average capacity in the oil industry.

The dynamics of dairy farming development in Belarus

The authors analyze the dynamics of the Belarusian dairy sector development within a period from 2016 to 2020 being one of the major internal and external market suppliers of milk and dairy products. Since 2011, per capita growth has reached 141 kg. Export opportunities are expanding as well. It is noted that provision of milk in this period has been stable, with the gross production reaching 7765 thousand tons of milk by 2020, or 828 kg per capita. With its share of 38,8 to 43,8% in 2016–2020, milk and dairy products were playing a leading role in the agricultural produce export ratio. The number of dairy cattle in the republic amounts to 1485 heads, as of 1st January 2021. National dairy facilities and milk industry capacities in general are being gradually renovated and subjected to technological improvements, which helps with increasing the output ration of the “extra” class milk. The industry’s needs in highly productive dairy cattle and pedigree livestock for export are well secured on account of 32 cattle breeding farms and 6 genetic selection centers. Dairy industry was given specific targets set out in the five-year program for a 2016–2020 period. During the National Programme implementation with regards to the dairy sector development, the goals set by the programme have been achieved by 90,4%.

Retraction Note: A model of economic loss of environmental carrying capacity caused by flood disasters in urban tourism areas

In the research on the economic loss of the carrying capacity of the tourism industry caused by flood disasters, some domestic and foreign scholars have conducted many years of research and have achieved certain results. The most commonly used model at present is mainly based on the historical data of the local urban tourism industry and calculates the economic loss of the environmental carrying capacity of the urban tourism area based on aquatic elements, submersion time, etc. However, although the model can provide some help, it still has shortcomings. The economic loss predicted by the model is quite different from the actual loss. In view of this situation, a model of the economic loss of the environmental carrying capacity of urban tourist areas due to flooding is designed to provide technical support for the assessment of the economic loss of the environmental carrying capacity of urban tourist areas. In this context, this article combines early warning theory, sustainable development theory, urban biology theory, urban environmental theory, and urban function and design planning theory into the economic loss model of environmental carrying capacity based on the research of relevant experts. Experts at home and abroad have used system dynamics simulation methods to establish environmental carrying capacity economic loss models based on the research results of domestic and foreign tourism environmental carrying capacity to study the environmental carrying capacity of coastal areas in our country. Based on the research results, it puts forward relevant suggestions to improve the environmental carrying capacity of coastal cities in our country, optimizes the early warning system of coastal cities’ environmental carrying capacity, and relieves the environmental pressure of coastal scenic spots, thereby promoting the tourism development, economic development, urban planning and environmental protection for coastal scenic spots.

Aspects of Industry in Transylvania, Banat, Crișana and Maramureș during the First Years after the Unification with Romania in 1918

Abstract At the end of the First World War, Transylvania, Banat, Crișana and Maramureș had a significant industrial basis. During the first years after the Unification in 1918, a growth of industrial capacity was noticeable in these regions. This capacity was founded, in all cases, with the help of state facilities, or with the participation of the state. Considering that after the Frist World War the political system stabilised, the holders of financial resources and those who grew rich after the war proceeded to investing preponderantly in industrial branches.
