Research of economic factors of construction recycling development
The paper examines the issues of introducing construction waste recycling technologies. We have carried out the analysis of legislation and normative-legal maintenance of stimulation of processing of building wastes. The barriers hindering the introduction of recycling technologies for building materials and structures, as well as factors that motivate to reduce construction waste and introduce recycling technologies, are summarized and systematized. Through the econometric analysis, the factors that most affect the current (operational) costs of environmental protection are identified, which further allowed us to formulate financial and economic criteria for choosing a method for utilizing construction waste that is most focused on reducing the costs of waste management. On the basis of the conducted research, the tools for the development of the system of construction waste management and their recycling are proposed. The financial and economic criteria for the selection of the method of utilization of construction wastes were identified, such as the possibility of using secondary construction resources as a finished product, element, material in new construction without additional processing; use of secondary construction resources as semi-finished products and raw materials for various enterprises of processing industries; full utilization of secondary construction resources and storage at the bases-landfills due to the lack of economic viability of their further use. Waste construction industry has a huge resource and their use will help to address environmental and economic problems associated with the formation and accumulation of solid waste. Effective management of construction waste will optimize the material flows ofproduction processes and the financial costs of organizing production, as well as serve the sustainable development of not only construction companies, but also the region.
