Figure 4 presents the share of all companies in the installed capacity of the Russian coal-fired power plant park. As far as the number of stations is concerned RAO EES owns 18 power plant and the rest of the companies own one each. Following RAO EES in installed capacity is Mosenergo and Kuzbassenergo with 1310MWel and 1272 MWel respectively.

The analysis is based on the data collected from the power plants and concern with the environmental performance, the achieved efficiencies, availability etc of the power plants. 4.1 Age of coal-fired units in Russia The Russian coal-fired power Units are characterized as of advanced age. More than 50% of the installed capacity corresponds to Units older than 30 years old, while about a quarter of the fleet’s installed capacity is in the range of 20 to 30 years. As far as the number of the units is concerned more than 60% are older than 30 years old while about 20% is in the range of 20 – 30 years (figure 5).

As it is obvious from the next diagram which illustrates the availability of the Russian coal- fired Units as a function of their commissioning year, most of the Units are in the range of 30 to 70%.

Coal mining in Serbia is performed by surface, underground and underwater mining, and within each of them there are also the coal preparation facilities. Underground mining is done in the scope of the JP PEU Resavica, which includes eight active mines: Bogovina, Rembas, Vrška čuka, Štavalj, Ibar, Soko, Jasenovac and Lubnica. Surface mining is carried out as part of a JP EPS. Mining operation is done in mining basin Kolubara and Kostalac which are supplier of three thermal power plants: Kolubara, Nikola Tesla and Morava. Underwater mining and preparation of coals in Serbia has been done in Kovin coal mine. Coal production, processes of preparation and quality for all active mines in Serbia are presented in this review paper. Keywords: coal; mining; mines; preparation; thermal power plants; Serbia; 1 INTRODUCTION The first coal mine was opened in Vrdnik on Fruška gora in 1804. This year presents the beginning of Serbian mining and preparation. In 1836 the first national coal mine was opened in village Mliva near Despotovac.

Original Scientific Paper DIGITAL TOPOGRAPHIC MODELLING IN CASE WITH HIGHER FLOOD IN THE MUNICIPALITY OBRENOVAC ALEKSANDAR VALJAREVIĆ1*, DRAGICA ŽIVKOVIĆ 2 1Faculty of Natural Science and Mathematics, University of Priština, Kosovska Mitrovica, Serbia 2Faculty of Geography, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Serbia ABSTRACT The town of Obrenovac is situated near the banks of three rivers, the Sava River, the Kolubara River and the Tamnava River. It looks like a modern town, though it has often developed in an unplanned manner. This causes huge problems as it thrives in a rough terrain, without a plan, which the communal infrastructure cannot follow. Today's needs in terms of spatial planning, envisaging projects and keeping track of a different kind of information on space demand that new technologies be applied since they make it possible for procuring efficient and reliable information as well as connecting and interconnecting various sorts of data. Also with advanced numerical GIS data and relief analysis we were successfully calculated consequence of the last big flood in 2014. Keywords: Rivers, Flood, Digital, Modelling, Preventive, GIS.

Attempt to unify the different mapping systems in the presence of international consensus of cartography regarding the position of the square and town Macho. Foreign, Hungarian and Bulgarian mappings clearly indicate the location of the town, in the continuation of research the international and time comparisons of entered map values are made, creating necessary geographical and historical synthesis.In cartographic displays, there is no doubts, the name Gradac appears as Slovenian counterpart of recognized name Macho. Key words: international cartography, recognition, county, square Mačva, comparison Introduction Regarding current scientific knowlegde there was little, if any, use of international cartographic fact in recognition of medieval Macho. The Serbian aspects mainly ignored geographical and visual elements for precise positioning of the city, while omitting systematic and rational cartographic representation of the site, region, and district. Through comparison of different cartographic versions, there could be drawn a significant scientific conclusions providing synthesis of historiographical, planimetrical and geographical facts. The beginnings of the Mačva historically is associated with the early Middle Ages, when the written monuments are found. Since then, and especially further- on, the names and tittles of the governors of Mačva district or country are frequently recorded.

  • Flood Risk Reduction Strategies and the Early Warning Systems for Alerting the Population in Western Balkan Countries
    ___________________________________________________________________________ 2018/TEL58/DSG/WKSP1/003 Flood Risk Reduction Strategies and the Early Warning Systems for Alerting the Population in Western Balkan Countries Submitted by: Alfa BK University Workshop on Earthquakes and Waterfloods Monitoring System with the Application of the Internet of Things Taipei, Chinese Taipei 1 October 2018 FLOOD RISK REDUCTION STRATEGIES AND THE EARLY WARNING SYSTEMS FOR ALERTING THE POPULATION IN WESTERN BALKAN COUNTRIES Emeritus prof. dr Larisa Jovanović ALFA BK University, Belgrade, Serbia ECOLOGICA Society, Belgrade, Serbia Abstract. The paper deals with flood risk reduction and methods of early flood warning. Flooding is one of most frequent and damaging type of natural disasters in Balkan countries. There is high probability that the impact of floods in Balkans will increase due to climate change. The watercourse arrangement includes the construction and maintenance of regulating facilities for watercourse regulation and the execution of works on maintaining the stability of the shore and riverbeds and providing water, ice and water throughput for the purpose of reducing the risk of flooding. Protection against harmful effects of water includes measures and works for protection against floods by external and internal waters, floods caused by ice barriers and floods of erosion and torrents. Since flood events are becoming more frequent and more intense, with the constant increase of exposure of people and goods due to intensive occupation of water-to-water areas, the need for increasing the level of protection of these areas is growing, so it is necessary to constantly improve and upgrade existing flood protection facilities and systems. Future research on floods should be focused on improving preparedness and response during a flood crisis, mainly warning and monitoring systems, also through the assessment of mitigation and prevention measures.
