“…This method makes it possible to not reduce the DR by minimizing the components falling to the ground, but to also reduce the costs of searching and cleaning the DR from the LV's SPs. The developed invention is reflected in the article, which additionally provides calculations to determine the required masses of the combustion system's components and the values of heights required to start the process of removing the SPs [55]. In addition, the study conducted a mathematical justification for the considered method's effectiveness.…”

The article aims at reviewing the drop regions (DR) of the launch vehicles (LV) separating parts (SP) and methods of their determination. The DRs include sea and land areas; going beyond them is associated with a number of environmental, economic, and political factors. Their combination dictates the need to ensure the safety of the people, transport, infrastructure, and environment from the negative impact of LV SPs and fuel residues. The Monte Carlo method is mostly used to determine the impact areas. It enables an estimation of the probability of the SPs of LVs falling in certain areas, constituting the DRs. These points are varied according to a set of different initial parameters. The methods of controlling the impact areas are contingently divided into engineering (based on a change in the design appearance of the LV), mathematical (which includes the changes in or optimization of the LV’s trajectory or its SP), and “soft landing” (implying the return of the LV’s to the spaceport or to a certain prepared area). The present analysis can be used as a starting point when choosing a method for determining and controlling the projected LVs and the SPs’ area of impact.

“…Development of recyclable after fulfillment of its mission designs of items and their elements is currently an important and urgent task aimed at reducing the negative impact on the environment [1,2]. Below we consider the utilization stage, which is the last stage of the product life cycle, by incineration of a separate class of items, such as separating parts of launch vehicles, in particular the payload fairing (PF).…”

The description of experimental benches for combustion of demonstration elements of material samples - combustion demonstrators (CD) is given. CD for investigating thermodynamic processes during combustion on experimental benches are developed. The results of experimental studies of combustion of CD made of different materials (existing and synthesized) are presented. A new direction of research is formulated - the development of combustible materials and structures made of them, providing the specified characteristics at all stages of operation.
