This article is devoted to the development of digital education in the global economy; special attention is paid to the problems of digitalization of the educational process under the influence of socio-economic threats on a global scale in the context of special demographic and social conditions. The article specifies the main reasons for the emergence of digitalization problems and the ways to solve them. The article substantiates the exceptional role of digital technologies in the digitalization of education, analyzes existing information technologies and highlights the main trends and prospects for their development; describes the opportunities and key challenges of digital transformation of education. The research reveals the weaknesses of the traditional education system in the context of globalization, identifies fundamentally new consumer needs in the market of educational services, and considers prospective digital systems that meet the requirements of modern society.

Humanity knows three ways to deal with waste: incineration, burial (landfills) and recycling. All the methods, except reuse and recycle, destroy nature and are dangerous for ecology and human health exactly. Each year Russians produce about 50 million tons solid waste, the most part of which goes to the landfills. National green projects are aimed to create visible eco-friendly system by awarding greenwashing projects with grants: landfills with sorting system, sorting centres without recycling facilities. Therefore, this study is aimed to discover recycling practices execute in Russia and suggest the project of gasification waste plant.

The possibility of controlling the physicochemical properties of suspensions and the electrical properties of filled latex composites containing dispersed ferroelectrics was examined. The use of ferroelectrics as fillers allows preparation of polymeric composites with high dielectric constant ɛ and low dielectric loss, used, e.g., for the development of dielectric functional layers of electroluminescence light sources.

In the present article application of a psychomotor identification method is justified - as the most sensitive to the slightest dynamic changes in psychofunctional condition of a person and as independent taxonomic unit of human personality in its integrative expression. On a comparative example of 4 groups of examinees of the various socially-directed importance, connection of their psychomotor status with their social adaptedness in the environment (success or not success) is detected. It is found out that athletes in playing sports have advantage against representatives of other groups, and even before representatives of combat sports in aspect of social adaptation - presence of communicative-reflective aspect influencing formation of such mechanisms as "identification", "empathy", ''prediction'', «mutual aid and interchangeability». And it leads to early education of collective solidarity not only on a game field, but also in any real life situation. The statistical analysis has allowed to allocate "border zones" of a social optimum which serve as a reference point for purposeful psychocorrectional work with "a weak link" in aspect of self-control and selfchecking of the individual and the person.
