This paper deals with current applied research focused on energy gain from wastewater (WW) for heating and cooling in a new multifunctional building. Energy-saving and environmental protection technologies are becoming one of the most important issues in the design and construction in EU. Energy gain from WW is often associated with piping exchangers, but there are alternative methods such as input pipes with pumping station (PS) and heat exchanger system (HES) with automatic surface cleaning and solids removal. E...

The article discusses basic directions of construction sector development in modern ecological conditions, principles of sustainable development of cities and the problems hindering implementation of green building principles in the Russian Federation. The article indicates the most promising concept of a building complex development which is the construction in compliance with environmental standards (green building).

Construction of green buildings has become a kind of global trend, but its implementation varies greatly by country and region, including the rate of growth in green involvement, triggers and obstacles impacting their growth. Green buildings gives to the forefront of energy efficiency also the impact of buildings on the environment, the environmental burden through production of raw materials and the impact of buildings on the whole region. Green building is therefore designed, built and operated also with regard ...
