Abstract

In modern conditions, the nature of scientific activity in the chemical and technological field is changed radically. Therefore, it is particularly relevant to implement an effective scientific and technical policy in this area in order to reduce the level of risk of the negative impact of hazardous chemical factors on the population and the environment. For a deeper understanding of the problems associated with the evolution of research and development in the chemical-technological field, the development of the issues of determining the effectiveness of scientific activity was applied in relation to the assessment of basic and applied research. The features of the development of science in the chemical-technological field in modern conditions are highlighted. A review of methods for determining the effectiveness of research and development is presented, and methodological problems are discussed. The specificity of determining the effectiveness of fundamental and applied scientific research in the chemical and technological field is highlighted. The problems of operational and long-term planning of research and development are investigated. The features of the expansion of research in the field of chemical technology are revealed. The problems of increasing the resource-intensiveness of research and development, staffing and optimization of training mechanisms for graduates of rare specialties in the chemical-technological field are investigated. Scientific and methodological approaches are proposed for determining the effectiveness of scientific activity in the chemical and technological field. Efficiency evaluation criteria are developed, which take into account the internal effects and externalities of scientific activities in the chemical and technological field. Efficiency is proposed to be evaluated according to three groups of criteria, internal efficiency, external efficiency and structural efficiency. Since the main part of the information can only be obtained through examination, the problems of obtaining and processing expert information are highlighted and ways of solving them are outlined.
