Methods for reducing the carbon footprint of industrial and construction facilities

Abstract

Greater attention to technologies that reduce the carbon footprint is a consistent trend in the development of the world economy at the present stage. International agreements (the Kyoto and Paris Climate Agreements) create a regulatory ground for reducing carbon emissions into the atmosphere and greenhouse gases. Reducing CO2 emissions will require the adoption of modern principles for buildings and constructions design. Scientific substantiation of the stages and the life cycle of building structures with a limited operating time, taking into account the introduction of modern construction materials, is an effective way to reduce CO2 emissions in the industrial sector and in the field of residential municipal construction.
