The author proposes the architecture of a knowledge base, which integrates HAZOP analysis and fault diagnosis, and provides the conditions for constructing the knowledge-based expert system. The author also presents a method of knowledge representation for on-line HAZOP analysis and on-line fault diagnosis is presented based on the technology of Petri net with fuzzy colors, which establishes a technological fundamental for integrating the automatic HAZOP analysis and fault diagnosis.展开更多

In order to develop such principles, this paper analyzes the radioecological situation in the territories of Donetsk and Luhansk regions of Ukraine for rapid and high-quality environmental cleanup and rehabilitation of areas with detected critical levels of environmentally hazardous pollutants. In order to quickly obtain fundamentally new environmental information, it is necessary to conduct multi-parameter, high-precision integrated monitoring of the Earth’s geospheres based on the latest methods and equipment for ground and remote environmental measurements, and new methods and technological means of clean, environmentally safe processing and final disposal. As the most appropriate technology, we propose mobile installations for plasma-chemical pyrolysis of medical waste directly at the place of its generation.展开更多
