The article describes the approaches to development of an effective regulatory mechanism manage carbon intensity Russian resource-intensive industries. authors focus their attention on ferrous metallurgy industry as top emitter greenhouse gases (GHG) and second-largest consumer energy among industrial sectors. Resource consumption wise this sector is well-studies regulated by Best Available Techniques (BAT). Establishing interrelation between indicators resource metrics, well operating costs per unit consumed resource, forms basis for developing a comparative analysis (benchmarking) system. This system relies specialised outlined in Reference Documents (BREF). suggest using BAT concept devising approach ascertain acceptable level gas emissions incentivise modernisation through industry-specific indicative parameters sector. Such are substantiated Federation. evaluates anticipated economic impact both government stemming from adoption proposed regulating practical implementation methodology poised mitigate financial burdens associated with introduction Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanisms (CBAM) around various economies.

This article introduces a novel approach for assessing microstructure, particularly its degradation after extended operation. The authors focus on creep processes in power plant components, highlighting the importance of diagnostics this field. emphasizes value combining traditional microstructure observation techniques with image analysis. A non-destructive method evaluating parameters (matrix replicas) is presented, and accuracy evaluated against conventional destructive method. assessment utilizes quantitative data derived from classical stereological principles Parameters like mean chord length, relative surface area, cross-sectional equivalent diameter are compared replica metallographic specimens. results show that accurately reproduces microstructure. In their conclusions, highlight developing visual methods alongside application artificial intelligence while indicating challenges achieving goal.
