Agricultural production in the Russian Federation is several times more energy-and material-intensive than in developed countries. (Research purpose) The research purpose is evaluation of the effectiveness of energy-saving technologies for technical maintenance of equipment using nanostructured aluminum oxyhydroxide and hydrothermal processing of agricultural waste in supercritical conditions. (Materials and methods) Nanostructured aluminum oxyhydroxide (boehmite) was produced by hydrothermal synthesis from aluminum powders. Tribological studies were carried out on a four-ball friction machine, a special device from WAGNER, on friction machines 2070 SMT-1M and MTU. Bench-in run was carried out on the D-240 engine and gearbox of a mobile drilling rig. The crushed solid waste of the agro-industrial complex was used as adsorbents for organic wastewater pollution. Their joint processing was carried out under hydrothermal supercritical conditions. (Results and discussion) It has been shown that nanostructure boehmite has antifriction, antiwear and extreme pressure properties. The possibility of its use as a product for running of a diesel engine has been found. The application of the boehmite in oils accelerates the running-in of a diesel engine, provides savings in material, labor and energy resources. For running-in of power transmission units, an additive containing bemite, surfactant, talc and kaolin reduced the running-in time of the drilling rig gearbox by 2.5 times. The article shows that the crushed plant waste of the agro-industrial complex, such as buckwheat husk, rice, and sunflower can be effectively used as adsorbents for the localization of pollution and wastewater treatment of agricultural enterprises. Subsequent processing of the adsorbent saturated with organic matter under hydrothermal supercritical conditions ensures the complete processing of organic substances to produce purified water and a high-enthalpy vapor-gas mixture or combustible gases, depending on the processing conditions. (Conclusions) Energy-saving technologies for the technical service of a diesel engine and transmission units can be based on the use of tribotechnical materials containing nanostructure boehmite. Technological solutions for energy-saving technologies for processing solid and liquid organic waste can consist in adsorption wastewater treatment followed by hydrothermal treatment in supercritical conditions.

In a broad sense, the utilization of agricultural machinery is a set of technical, organizational, economic, legal, financial and environmental measures to ensure the effective utilization of agricultural machinery, its aggregates (compo-nents of the technical base) at the final stage of the life cycle in order to maximize involvement in economic turnover. (Research purpose) The research purpose is in analyzing the work of foreign and domestic authors related to the formation of a resource-saving, environmentally-oriented system for recycling equipment. (Materials and methods) The article presents diverse studies in various areas, in which various materials and methods were used. Authors used a large amount of data characterizing the possibilities of creating a system for recycling agricultural ma-chinery in the agro-industrial complex of Russia, based on the state of the agricul-tural machine-tractor fleet, its age characteristics and the ability of engineering enterprises to carry out this type of activity. The obtained information was processed using statistical analysis methods. (Results and condemnation) The developed con-cept determines the necessity of creating a specific (industry-specific) system for the disposal of agricultural machinery in the agro-industrial complex of Russia as a component of a unified system for the disposal of machinery. (Conclusions) The conducted research showed that Russia is significantly lagging behind foreign countries in solving the problem of recycling equipment, so the best option can be considered to be working out the recycling mechanism in the process of building a local (industry) recycling system at the regional level. This will allow us to work out the elements of the national system for the disposal of decommissioned equip-ment in a relatively short time with minimal expenditure of various kinds of resources.

ABSTRACTThe government efforts to maintain national energy stability program through the increase energy supply and saving must be supported by all levels of society. Several energy observers and experts stated that the contribution of the domestic or household sector in the activities of energy saving program is quite significant because the percentage of household customers are relatively high. This paper analyzes the potential of providing research data on the percentage of electricity savings in the domestic or household sectors towards saving electricity nationally. The results of the study show that electrical devices commonly used in households still have the potential to be saved. Electrical devices that are often used at households and have great saving potentials are air conditioners and refrigerators. If each household customer saves 30% of electricity consumption, then the national electricity supply that can be saved will be around 5,679 GW, equivalent to 83.3 trillion rupiah. The saving program resulted in savings of electricity consumption of around 6% of all household consumers or around 2.9% of total national electricity consumption.Keywords: electrical energy, savings, households ABSTRAKUpaya pemerintah dalam menjaga kestabilan energi nasional melalui program peningkatan pasokan dan penghematan energi harus didukung oleh seluruh lapisan masyarakat.

The article outlines the main factors that characterize the rationale for the formation of the "Agricultural Recycling" system with the participation of manufacturing plants, engineering enterprises of the agro-industrial complex and other interested organizations and structures. The most important reason for the formation of the "Agricultural Recycling" system is the need to return to the production and operational sphere of secondary resources in the amount of at least 90-95 percent. (Research purpose) The research purpose is in justifying the optimal solution for the creation of a resource-saving eco-oriented system "Agricultural Recycling". (Materials and methods) The article describes the possibility of forming a system of "Agricultural Recycling" in the Russian agro-industrial complex in the next 2-3 years. Decommissioned agricultural machinery and equipment, as well as their components, are partially disposed (ferrous and non-ferrous metals, tires, batteries, etc.), but the main part of the components of the machines becomes waste, which is placed in landfills, which creates many economic and environmental problems. (Results and discussion) The article presents the main factors justifying the need for the formation of the "Agricultural Recycling" system. One of the most important conditions for the creation of this system, in addition to financial aspects (recycling fee), is the active participation in this project of agricultural machinery manufacturers, agricultural engineering enterprises and other interested organizations and structures, which will allow us to activate the process of reviving production capacities in the agricultural complex for the collection and processing of recycled agricultural machinery, as well as its components. (Conclusions) In Russia, to date, despite the regulatory, legislative and economic framework formed in recent years in the state format, a unified system for the disposal of decommissioned equipment has not been created.
