Abstract
The problem of increasing landfills in the country is the most urgent. Each person throws out up to 2–3 kg of garbage per day. There are currently 3 waste incineration plants operating in the country. But they burn only 20–30% of waste. Therefore, their territories are constantly growing in each region. At landfills, waste seeps into the soil and groundwater or other water resources. After some time, organic waste begins to decompose when accumulated in landfills and biogas is released into the atmosphere. But there is an opportunity to make the territory of the country ecologically clean by developing a waste disposal project based on the technology of aerosol nanocatalysis with energy production. This technology has shown itself well during the complete combustion of waste from various chemical, polymer profile and other enterprises. As a result, we got gases coming out of the reactor with concentrations at the level of the MPC of the working zone. On average, each person throws out up to 1000 kg of waste per year. Most of them go to landfills. If they are converted into electricity, it will be possible to save up to UAH 1.5 million per year.
