RUDN students take care of nature!
Do you know what tailing dumps are? That is where the polluting wastes of chemical plants are contained. However, the register of units that have a negative impact on the environment does not include information about the class of hazard of facilities and their construction characteristics. This significantly reduces the efficiency and safety of liquidation work at a hazardous industrial facility.
Luybov Kolpakova, a third-year student, used the example of the Chelyabinsk and Pskov regions to study the Russian legislative framework on this issue and concluded that the storage facilities are disposed of incorrectly.
What can we make so the disposal of hazardous waste does not pose a threat to the environment? Luybov suggests making changes to the provisions for the demolition and disposal of hazardous substances and facilities.
Imagine that all objects will be disposed of without any harm to the environment. Objects that have a negative impact on the environment occur when the business entity that caused environmental damage did not eliminate them in a timely and complete manner. If there is no way to find the person responsible for the damage caused, the state is forced to take responsibility for the elimination of these objects.
“Humanity is increasingly confronted with global environmental problems on which our lives directly depend. Legal regulation is now becoming one of the most effective mechanisms for controlling humanity’s impact on the environment. This fact is the reason for my interest in the topic. This study illustrates one of the possible ways to combat environmental threats,” Luybov comments.
Alena Devyaterikova is the first in our country to study the features of the development of cognitive and visual-motor functions in preschool children who have had oncology. For this research, a researcher at the Laboratory of Neuropsychology of the Research Institute for Brain Development and Higher Achievements of the Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia became a laureate of the Medal of the Russian Academy of Education “Young Scientist for Success in Science”. The award ceremony took place on November 24 at the press center of the Russia Today media group.
RUDN University took part in the exposition of the Moscow NAUKA 0+ Festival at the Expocentre, the largest popular science platform in 2022 in terms of the number of activities. The University was represented by the Faculty of Science, the Agrarian and Techological Institute, the Institute of Ecology, the Institute of Biochemical Technology and Nanotechnology, the Medical Institute, the Higher School of Industrial Policy and Entrepreneurship, and the university admissions team.
7 minutes to talk about the Olympics, modern fantasy, gamification and pop-up: on the Day of Russian Science, the 8th of February, Science Talks were organized for the first time at the RUDN.
