Experimental Study of Municipal Solid Waste (Msw) Landfills and Non- Authorized Waste Damps Impact on the Environment
Linnaeus ECO-TECH ´10 Kalmar, Sweden, November 22-24, 2010 EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE (MSW) LANDFILLS AND NON- AUTHORIZED WASTE DAMPS IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT Veronica Tarbaeva Dmitry Delarov Committee on Natural Resources of Leningrad region, Russia ABSTRACT A purpose was an analysis of waste disposal sites existing in the Leningrad region and a choice of facilities potentially suitable for the removal and utilization of greenhouse- and other gases. In order to achieve the purpose in view, data were collected on the arrangement of non-authorized landfills and waste dumps within the Leningrad region. The preliminary visual evaluation and instrumental monitoring were carried out for 10 facilities. The evaluation of greenhouse- and other gas emissions into the atmosphere as well as of ground water pollution near places of waste disposal was performed. A databank was created for waste disposal sites where it could be possible to organize the work on removing and utilizing of greenhouse gas. The conducted examination stated that landfills exert negative influence on the environment in the form of emissions into the atmosphere and impurities penetrating underground and surface water. A volume of greenhouse gas emissions calculated in units of СО2 – equivalent from different projects fluctuates from 63.8 to 8091.4 t in units of СО2 – equivalent. Maximum summarized emissions of greenhouse gases in units of СО2 – equivalent were stated for MSW landfills of the towns of Kirishi, Novaya Ladoga and Slantsy, as well as for MSW landfills near Lepsari residential settlement and the town of Vyborg. KEYWORDS Non-authorized waste dumps, MSW landfills, greenhouse gases, atmospheric air pollution, instrumental monitoring. -

Estonia’s Divided Border Cities – Co-operation and Conflict Within and beyond the EU Thomas Lundén Boundary Theory Aboundary is a line, usually in space, at which a certain state of affairs is terminated and replaced by another state of affairs. In nature, boundaries mark the separation of different physical states (molecular configurations), e.g. the boundary between water and air at the surface of the sea, between wood and bark in a tree stem, or bark and air in a forest. The boundaries within an organized society are of a different character. Organization means structuration and direction, i.e. individuals and power resources are directed towards a specific, defined goal. This, in turn, requires delimitations of tasks to be done, as well as of the area in which action is to take place. The organization is defined in a competition for hegemony and markets, and with the aid of technology. But this game of definition and authority is, within the limitations prescribed by nature, governed by human beings. -
The Island Monastery of Valaam in Finnish Homeland Tourism: Constructing a “Thirdspace” in the Russian Borderlands
The island monastery of Valaam in Finnish homeland tourism: Constructing a “Thirdspace” in the Russian borderlands MAJA MIKULA Mikula, Maja (2013). The island monastery of Valaam in Finnish homeland tour- ism: Constructing a “Thirdspace” in the Russian borderlands. Fennia 191: 1, pp. 14–24. ISSN 1798-5617. The Orthodox island monastery of Valaam in Russian Karelia is today a popular destination for Finnish tourists visiting Russia’s western borderlands. Many of these tourists are descendants of the Karelians who had evacuated the area fol- lowing World War II. The monastery’s institutionally sanctioned genealogies construct it as the civilizing force, which had brought Christian enlightenment to the local heathen population. This discursive template is played out in the way the place is presented to visitors, with each highlight telling a carefully con- structed story that promotes the monastery’s significance for the Russian reli- gious and national identity. Yet, drawing on lived experience, as well as on popular culture, family lore and meanings from collective memory, the Finnish visitors break the monolithic official discourse and produce a complex “third- space” in their own measure. This paper is based on participant observation and semi-structured interviews conducted during a homeland visit to Ladogan Kare- lia in June 2010. Keywords: homeland tourism, Valaam, Karelia, Finland, Russia, borderlands, “thirdspace” Maja Mikula, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, University of Technology Sydney, PO Box 123, Broadway NSW 2007, Australia.

The Role and Significance of St.-Petersburg Transport Node in the International Good Movement System
Natalia Naumova The Saint‐Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering THE ROLE AND SIGNIFICANCE OF ST.-PETERSBURG TRANSPORT NODE IN THE INTERNATIONAL GOOD MOVEMENT SYSTEM Abstract: The present article is concerned with the St.-Petersburg transport node, its role and significance in the international goods movement system, assessment of the transportation system of St.-Petersburg and Leningrad region, participation of various kinds of transport in the international and Russian cargo traffic. Both problems of functioning of St.-Petersburg transport node and possible ways of their decision are described. Keywords: transport node, international goods movement system, cargo traffic, Grand Port of St.-Petersburg The international trade of goods and services is one of the basic elements of global economic. Throughout several millenia since origin of civilizations export of the goods in foreign countries in exchange for the overseas goods was the integral part of the world economy. Today the prompt growths of manufacture, development of transport and communication have led to the expansion of sphere of foreign trade and the increase of its volume. At the same time there was a process of formation of the goods movement system in which frameworks the delivery of the goods from manufacturers to consumers is carried out. The goods movement system is defined by the Russian scientists as a complex of means, communications and all types of transport, warehouses, material base of broker and agency firms, the transport-forwarding companies rendering their services in the organisation of transportation and maintenance of shipment and cargo reception, material base of the leasing companies, means of information-administrative systems. -

Selection and/orand/or peer-review under responsibility of theICESB Asia-Pacific 2011 Chemical, Biological & Environmental Engineering Society (APCBEES) Keywords: snow cover, heavy metals, spectral analysis, Saint-Petersburg region, the Southern Urals. 1. Introduction At present industrial enterprises are surrounded by ever growing technogenic anomalies – plots with higher contents of lead, copper, zinc, and other elements, exceeding significantly natural background. Disclosing of such technogenic anomalies is one of most important geoecological tasks of city environment evaluation. Snow cover monitoring is one of the methods of defining ranges of such anomalies. In this sense, snow cover is a reliable indicator of pollution for it concentrates the whole volume of winter precipitation. The amount of toxic materials left in a city after snow has melt is represented by a complex of substances in snow cover and carried away by thaw waters. -
