Abstract
In urbanized areas of the Russian Federation, the infrastructure of snow landfills does not meet modern environmental, engineering, and economic standards. This fact makes it necessary to carry out a comprehensive modernization of these facilities. The relevance of this study is determined by the problems associated with the utilization of snow masses, as well as the significant disadvantages of existing landfill complexes. The development of upgraded landfills that meet the requirements of sustainable development and environmental safety is a significant scientific task that requires a detailed analysis and systematic approach.
This paper analyzes the problems of snow polygons existing on the territory of the Russian Federation and the consequences of their absence, their current state, and identifies shortcomings in their functioning.
Based on the data obtained, an upgraded version of the snow landfill with an asphalt concrete surface is proposed, provided with a cleaning system that avoids harmful substances and solid waste from melting snow masses into the soil and removing the introduced water from the base and the earthbed under the site.
The proposed upgraded version of the snow training ground was put into operation in Tyumen and is successfully operating.
