Currently, Kazzinc LLP is completing the construction of the Ridder boiler house with a capacity of 210 MW, which will burn about 140 thousand tons of coal annually. Due to the fact that the Environmental Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan prohibits the placement of landfills of ash and slag waste within settlements, the issue of their disposal in the amount of up to 80 thousand tons has become acute.The scientific staff of the laboratory of geotechnological processes of the branch of the RSE "NC KPMS RK" "Vniitsvetmet" has developed an environmentally safe technology for the disposal of ash and slag waste from the Ridder boiler house in the volume of 80 thousand tons per year in the laying of the developed spaces at the Ridder-Sokolny mine of the East Kazakhstan GOK. Regulations have been developed for the reconstruction project of the concrete-laying complex.The developed technology for recycling boiler room waste into the worked-out space of the mine will not only ensure their environmentally safe disposal, but also make up for the shortage of inert aggregate during the production of laying works at the Ridder-Sokolny mine, reduce cement consumption.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/mps/press/news/details/891167

The autumn landscaping campaign in Almaty, which started in October this year within the framework of the republican program "Taza Kazakhstan", is actively continuing. At the moment, about 160 thousand seedlings have been planted in the city.An important innovation in 2023 was the new Rules of landscaping, introduced on behalf of the mayor of the city. According to the rules, three years of care for planted trees is now mandatory, which ensures a more effective process of adaptation of plants to the urban environment. Strict requirements for planting materials have also been introduced: the height of deciduous seedlings should be at least 2.5-3 meters, and coniferous seedlings should be at least 2 meters, preserving the lump of earth during planting to improve the survival of trees.Residents note that the quality of the planted materials has significantly improved in the city."With the new rules on landscaping, it has become much more pleasant to walk in the city. The trees that are being planted now really look better - they are stronger, greener and grow well. Previously, many plants did not take root, but now we see how trees develop and become street decorations. This makes our city even more beautiful and comfortable to live in," says resident Anna."Now it is clear that the approaches to gardening have really changed. The trees that we now see on the streets are much stronger and healthier. Previously, planted plants often did not take root due to the wrong approach, but now you can see how they grow and become part of the urban beauty," says a resident of the Auezovsky district of Denmark.In order to increase the survival rate of seedlings, as well as to obtain scientific recommendations, joint work is underway with specialized organizations - the Main Botanical Garden of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the KazNII for Plant Protection and Quarantine named after Zh. Zhiembayev. According to the received recommendations of experts, in the autumn-winter period, planting should be carried out only with a closed lump of earth, and when subzero temperatures occur, imported soil should be used to fill the seats. Scientists also recommend paying attention to the threshold values: when planting, the comfortable temperature for hardwoods is up to – 8 °C, for conifers not lower than -15 ° C degrees below zero.Recall that in Almaty, on the eve of the winter period, within the framework of the republican program "Taza Kazakhstan" and the city campaign "Almaty is our common home", a large–scale cleaning of the street and road network, public places, riverbeds, street urns and a ditch network is being carried out.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/almaty/press/news/details/891062
