Еxpedition studies were conducted in order to take samples in the components of elementary landscapes - precipitation (snow), surface waters, roadside dust, soil, bottom sediments and sediments at the water's edge along the route of Shakhty (Eastern Donbass) – Margaritovo village (coast of Taganrog Bay) in the Rostov region. In the selected samples, the mass concentration of oil products (OP) was determined, the analysis of which showed that road dust and snow are one of the sources of soil pollution, surface water and bottom sediments. The following sequence of oil product content levels has been revealed as they decrease: road dust → soil → sediments at the water's edge → bottom sediments → snow → surface water, which persists at almost all but one station. The content of oil products in the soils of the region should be estimated as varying from acceptable to average, while the surface waters contained this pollutant in concentrations below the MPC for the waters of fish farms.

The article discusses the production and use of environmentally friendly fuel - pellets. A review of the designs of mobile pellet production plants was carried out, the advantages and disadvantages of these designs were identified. Potential consumers of pellets and equipment (heating boilers for which pellets are the fuel) are considered. A mobile complex for the production of pellets on the chassis of the MSN-10-004-03 . The technology of pellet production using a mobile mobile installation is described.
