Management of construction waste generated by military actions: analysis and solutions

Purpose. To improve the existing system for managing construction waste generated due to the damage (destruction) of buildings and structures as a result of hostilities, with the aim of developing a long-term, comprehensive strategy for construction waste management, taking into account current conditions and challenges. The methods. An analysis of the main problems and methods of construction waste management in Ukraine was conducted, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages. A construction waste management scheme was developed; a SWOT analysis (Strengths Weakness Opportunity Threats) of waste management in the Dnipropetrovsk region was carried out, taking into account regional specifics. Results. An analysis of the problems of effective construction waste management allowed us to identify comprehensive actions and outline the main ways to improve the effective management of construction waste generated due to the damage (destruction) of buildings and structures, taking into account the experience of other countries and the specifics of the situation that has developed in Ukraine as a result of hostilities. The originality. The processing of construction waste has significant internal potential for expanding the use of recycled materials in Ukraine. Construction waste management can solve not only environmental problems but also become a source of efficient use of available resources, open up new opportunities for business, create a market for secondary building materials, and contribute to the transition to a circular economy. Practical implementation. Integration into a new unified innovative system involves solving a whole range of issues and problems related to the need to improve methods of managing construction waste generated due to the damage (destruction) of buildings and structures as a result of hostilities. This will allow the development of a transparent legislative and legal framework, create an effective market for secondary building materials, rationally use available resources, solve important environmental problems, and implement large-scale restoration projects based on the principles of a circular economy.
