Asino become the platform for pilot project worth 0.5 billion rubles

TOMSK, Apr 19 – RIA Tomsk. The administration of the Tomsk region and the Fund for Infrastructure and Educational Programs (enters Rusnano group) will start in the city of Asino the pilot project on reconstruction of treatment facilities with application of nanotechnologies, the representative of the fund Maxim Nevesenko told journalists on Wednesday.

Earlier it was reported that in the Tomsk region with the assistance of the fund the pilot project on repair of the inhabited five-storey building with the use of nanotechnological materials is implemented. The new project will affect 25-thousand city of Asino. Asinovsky treatment facilities work since 1972, the most part from them is in bad condition.

"We support implementation of the project with the use of innovative materials. We are ready to develop design and estimate documents according to which the reconstruction will be made at the expense of the budget of the Tomsk region, the municipal budget and private investors. The total cost of reconstruction, by estimates of experts, will make 500 million rubles", – Nevesenko told.

He added that the Tomsk region will become the pilot platform for working off of the large project: "As the institute of development we are interested in replication of the project. In Russia more than one thousand such objects are the standard constructions made in the seventies. The Tomsk region the first in Russia decided to go together with us in this direction, the region becomes the innovator".

Nevesenko explained that the project assumes capital repairs with the use of nanomaterials which will increase service life of constructions and will make them energy efficient. 

"We consider with the administration of the Tomsk region the possibility of involvement of both the Tomsk developers of nanomaterials, and producers from other regions of Russia. These are more than 15 companies proposing more than 30 solutions. For example, carbon composite tapes, innovative system of water purification, composite pipes and so on", – specified the expert.

According to the fund, in the project to strengthen concrete structures, carbon composite tapes produced by the NanoCentre of Composites (LLC "NCC"), durable composite reinforcement can be used. It is planned to use nanotechnological waterproofing materials, composite fiberglass pipes, paints, energy-efficient process equipment, filters based on nanotechnological membranes.

As the deputy governor on construction and infrastructure Evgeny Parshuto commented to journalists, the authorities expect that the project will make life of Asino residents more comfortable.

"It is the serious project. Here both private business, and municipality, and the regional power which guarantees that the project will be realized are involved. It is much said that it is necessary to involve private business in municipal sphere. Unfortunately, the process is not going so fast. Such projects connected with the use of innovative technologies I think, will be realized in the Tomsk region", – he said.

According to the deputy governor, the project will be launched after the signing of the relevant agreement between the regional administration and Rusnano. As it became known to RIA Tomsk, the document will be signed on Thursday, April 20.

REFERENCE: the Fund for Infrastructure and Educational Programs is created in 2010 in accordance with the Federal law No. 211-FZ "On Reorganization of the Russian Corporation of Nanotechnologies". The purpose of the fund is the development of innovative infrastructure in the sphere of the nanotechnologies, including the implementation of educational and infrastructure programs already launched by Rusnano.
