Bringing to safe health standards and maintaining the basic parameters of the air (microclimate) in the premises for various purposes within the established limits with a high level of efficiency, pro-vides an opportunity to solve the problem of national importance – public health and the necessary environmental characteristics. The purpose of the study is to develop technology and foundations for the construction of universal systems of automated high-quality air purification in rooms for various purposes. Methods of analysis, synthesis, mathematical modelling, and engineering calculations were used in the research process. The technology, composition, and structure of universal systems for au-tomated cleaning and maintenance of the required indoor air quality, which provides automatic control of air parameters, have been developed. The composition and features of software and hardware are substantiated, the method of engineering calculation, structure of air purification system is developed and its technical parameters are defined. The synergetic effects in the implementation of air purification, which are achieved through a comprehensive, consistent with the procedures and pro-cesses of sequential parallel processing of injected and filtered air, have been investigated and proved. Developed technology and systems provide the ability to purify large volumes of air at high speed and quality in rooms with different levels of mechanical contamination, microflora, other harmful impurities, including microorganisms, allergens, dangerous viruses that cause infections with pathogens diseases characterised by mass and high rate of spread, such as COVID-19. For the first time, the problem of creation of energy-efficient high power systems of complex air purification for industrial premises of large sizes, which are 2.5-4 times more effective on all basic indicators in com-parison with the best analogues has been solved

The paper presents the activity developed developed in the field of polluted air purification from industrial shop (paint shops, foundries, welding constructions, forging, etc.). The advantages of using ultrasounds in the pollutant air filtration and purification process and an ultrasonic filter designed are presented considering the ultrasonic cavitation phenomenon. The main computational and construction elements of the ultra-acoustic system used in the design of the air filter are presented in the paper. The work focuses in the design of the main part of the ultrasonic system represented by ultrasonic transducer. In this case, the transducer network that is used in ultrasonic cavitation method consists of ten ultrasonic transducers. Each one of them consists of asymmetrical passive elements (reflector and radiant element).The design steps and the use of FEM as working method will provide the theoretical basis of the operation of the ultrasonic system so that it allows air filtration based on the ultrasonic acoustic cavitation phenomenon.

The removal of slag from melt surface of hot metal and steel ladles is a necessary condition to provide a deep desulphurization and dephosphorization of hot metal and steel in the process of their processing. A review of methods of slag skimming presented, mainly based on slag mechanical shoveling and its removal out of ladles by vacuum sucking. It was shown, that manipulators design for the slag skimming working instrument moving depends on the production scale, mass of the processed heats, amount and properties of the slag to be removed, production process intensity and ecological requirements. Peculiarities of designs and technical parameters of machines for slag skimming presented, designed by Irkutsk plant of heavy machinery, Scientific and Production Enterprise n.a. M.I. Platov, VNIIMETMASH, Kuznetsk and Novolipetsk steel plants. Technological methods of control of slag composition and physical properties considered, first of all of viscosity and fluidity, which have significant effect on selection of a method of slag skimming. Advantages and drawbacks of actions, aimed at more complete slag removal from metal surface by a scraper noted including bath blowing off by an inert gas, liquid slag tapping into am intermediate settling tank following its removal into a slag bowl. In case of satisfactory fluidity it is possible to slag removal by vacuum sucking, which at the same time promoted the melt degassing. Work done in this area abroad noted. Methods of vacuum slag removal developed in the USA and Japan described.

Glycerol as a byproduct of biodiesel production was approximately formed 10% of the biodiesel weight. Impurities which contained in the glycerol such as catalyst, soap, methanol, water, salt, and matter organic non glycerol (MONG) have a significant effect on the glycerol concentration. So, it is necessary to treat the impurities. The purpose of this study is to know the effect of chloroform to glycerol purification process with acidification method using hydrochloric acid as pretreatment process. This research was begun with acid addition to the glycerol to neutralize the base content and to split the soap content into free fatty acid and salt, that are more easily separated from glycerol. Then the process was continued with extraction by the solvent chloroform using the variable of test volume ratio (v/v) (1:1, 1:1.5, 1:2)  and the extraction time (20, 40, and 60 minutes). The results showed that the more volume of solvent used, gave less extraction time to produce high purity of glycerol. The highest purity produced in this study amounted to 90,9082% is obtained at the ratio of the volume solvent (v/v) 1:1 with extraction time 60 minutes.
