The stability of inorganic ultraviolet pigments synthesized from phosphogypsum in relation to the action of a number of solvents has been studied. It is noted that under the conditions studied, the samples are stable in the presence of water and solutions of organic solvents, and treatment of the samples with concentrated solutions of sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide leads to a decrease in luminescent properties. The luminescence ability of the samples remains when heated to 800 ° C. Based on the developed pigments, building mixes can be obtained that have luminescent properties when irradiated with ultraviolet light.

The paper presents an analysis of the methods for the chemical modification of biochar. The characteristics of acid and basic modifications, modifications with hydrogen peroxide, sulfonation, amination, impregnation with metal oxides, and magnetization are examined. It is demonstrated that the method of modification, the parameters of the technological process, and the nature of the modifying agent all exert an influence on the chemical composition, structure, porosity, pore size, and total specific surface area of the modified coal. The combination of methods, technological parameters, and modifiers allows for the production of sorbents for wastewater treatment based on biochar with specific properties for the sorption of certain groups of different pollutants.

Numerical studies of the temperature and humidity properties of three types of enclosing exterior walls have been performed using gas-silicate autoclave hardening blocks as the base, and a comparative analysis of the results of the study with the results of research by other authors has been carried out. The design features affecting the condensation of moisture in multilayer walls are revealed. It has been found that multilayer walls have a number of disadvantages that affect their performance and durability, in particular, the presence of materials with different vapor permeability and moisture absorption, which leads to the accumulation of moisture inside the wall. The prospects of using single-layer structures and the importance of choosing the right material for the finishing layer are shown. An example of the use of a finishing material based on acrylic and marble chips is given, and the need for further research of this material is shown.

The article presents the results of a survey of two industrial buildings, conclusions about their emergency technical condition and the inexpediency of restoration. Modern methods of demolition and dismantling of buildings in the cramped conditions of the existing urban development are analyzed. The main technologies of recycling dismantling and disposal of construction waste generated during the dismantling of buildings are considered: "smart demolition" and the technology of piecemeal disassembly of buildings with the reuse of materials, products and structures. Comparing the two methods of recycling dismantling for application to the objects under consideration, it is concluded that the first method of "smart demolition" implies the destruction of all building structures, while the second is more rational in terms of resource conservation and economic efficiency by reuse of serviceable structures. The technology of piecemeal disassembly of buildings with the reuse of structures requires the development of regulatory, organizational and marketing measures.
