Abstract
Purpose. The analysis of the current state of the cindery microspheres market in Ukraine, a research of top trends and the prospects of its development.Methodology. During researches analytical and statistical methods of data processing were used.Findings. The current state of the cindery microspheres market in Ukraine is investigated. It is established that broad using of cindery wastes promotes using of microspheres in all spheres of the industry, in particular in construction area. It is defined that in Ukraine 15 thermal power plants function and the main domestic manufacturers of cindery microspheres are Burshtyns’ka, Prydniprovs’ka, Trypil’s’ka, Kryvorizh’ska and Chernihivs’ka thermal power plants. In 2017 the rate of cindery materials selling was 403.8 thousand tons, and profit on sales – 6.2 million US dollars. The main cindery microspheres import countries to Ukraine are the Russian Federation, Kuwait, the USA, the Republic of South Africa, India. During 2014–2018 the rates of import wereincreasing that can be explained with the coal supply from the USA and the Republic of South Africa that can bring negative consequences for the coal industry of Ukraine and can cause increasing in the average prices of electric power cost. It is established that export exceeds import. Cindery microspheres in Ukraine meanwhile remain not requested by consumers as there are no enterprises which widely use them in production. Cindery microspheres are exported to Germany, Italy, Slovakia, Kazakhstan, the Republic of Korea, the Netherlands, Belarus, the Republic of Moldova, Romania and Turkey. The greatest part in export in 2018 was occupied by Germany. To the countries of the Middle East cindery microspheres from Ukraine are exported in the majority for requirements of the oil and gas industry, and to the European countries – for the construction industry and production of refractory materials. It is noted that Ukraine owns powerful resources of the sector, causing the prospects of cindery microspheres using in the different industries, in particular, production of construction materials, a fire-resistant brick,heat-insulating and sound protective materials.Originality. The market situation of cindery microspheres with a detailed research of production, export-import transactions and the main countries contractors is analysed.The practical value. The results of research are display of the cindery microspheres market modern situation of Ukraine that can be used for further researches.
