“…Since 2001, under the auspices of the National Science Foundation of the USA, the so-called NBIC (NBIC) initiative (nanotechnology-biotechnology-IT-cognitive science), which denotes some convergent whole, has been put forward. The connection of technological convergence with the development of the national innovation system was considered by some authors as a combination of isolated trajectories of sectoral innovation development [7][8][9], and by another-as the integration of innovative processes in the basic and high-tech industries based on digitalization (structural and technological convergence) [10][11][12].…”

Convergent and Nature-Like Technologies as the Basis for Sustainable Development in the 21st Century

The global challenge of the 21st century is associated with the need to ensure the sustainable development of modern countries. The basic condition for such development is an adequate amount of energy and resources. This means using not oil and gas only but supplies of drinking water, arable land, forests, and other mineral resources are being rapidly depleted. The industrial civilization, in only 200 years of its existence, has put the world on the threshold of a resource collapse. The reason for the current crisis situation is the antagonism of nature and the technosphere created by man. Technical progress has violated the natural resource turnover – a peculiar metabolism of nature, creating technologies that are hostile to it. These technologies, being torn from the natural context, are in fact bad copies of individual elements of natural processes and are based on a highly specialized model of science and industry-specific technologies. Consequently, the transition to sustainable development requires a radical technological modernization of the economy, in particular, widespread diffusion and inter-sectoral transfer of convergent and nature-like technologies.

“…The analysis of domestic and foreign publications shows that zero waste technologies can be developed in four main areas [5][6][7][8]: 1) Creation of various types of drainless technological systems based on existing, implemented and promising water cleaning methods. In this case, a sharp decrease in water consumption is achieved, but, as a rule, secondary pollution in the form of solid precipitates or saturated solutions is formed.…”

Economic and environmental problems are closely related, and solving some of them, the others cannot be solved. The state of the environment directly forms the potential of the economic sphere. For example, resources for industrial enterprises are formed in the natural environment, and the capacity of plants and factories depends on resources’ quantity. The amount of money to be spent on the purchase and installation of treatment plants, on the measures to eliminate water, air and soil pollution, depends upon the profit. Each country has its own list of environmental problems related to the economy. They are engaged in their elimination at the state level, but first of all the responsibility for the consequences is the burden of companies’ management. The active development of the economy should not adversely affect the state of the environment. Both individual enterprises and whole states should control the economic and environmental situation in order to achieve a balance and solve global problems. The most important form of interaction between the state and business in solving economic-and-environmental problems is the introduction of zero waste technologies in all their diversity and achieving their multiplicative effect. The paper shows the relationship between environmentally-oriented innovative development of the economy and the introduction of zero waste technologies.

“…There are still disagreements on the necessity to impose strict legal restrictions. In order to prevent and/or minimize environmental damage, a number of direct and indirect environment policy instruments have been developed and applied in different countries [2][3]. At the same time, it is believed that the maximum efficiency in overcoming current and future ecological threats can be achieved only through the joint use of three instruments of environmental policy: direct regulation, market-based instruments, and voluntary programs.…”

Modern society needs to establish a balance between social and economic development and environment conservation. This target can be met through the integrated use of legislative, economic and administrative measures developed and implemented by various international, national and regional organizations. Environmental management can achieve the maximum efficiency only through the joint use of three environmental policy instruments: direct regulating, market-based instruments, and voluntary programs. Direct regulating is inherently directive in terms of establishing emission standards / discharge limits, industry product and process specifications, and transparency reporting requirements. The implementation of market-based instruments depends on the day-to-day use of private sector financial calculations. Economic methods include price-based instruments and property-based instruments. Voluntary programs, actively encouraged by governments, offer intangible rewards such as public recognition. The vast legislative framework and activities of governmental and public organizations encourage mining and processing enterprises to strictly conform to environmental rules and regulations. While multiple market-based instruments of environmental management and voluntary programs provides businesses with greater autonomy in choosing ways, means and terms of restructuring their environmental policies to meet pressing environmental challenges.
