Department of fire tactics and emergency rescue operations
EMERGENCY RESCUE OPERATIONS
Fire tactics and emergency rescue works are the basis for people rescue, eliminating of natural, man-made and social emergencies. Every day dozens of people die from the dangerous factors of fires and accidents. That's why from the rescuers skills, the speed of their decision in difficult situations human’s life depends.
The history of the department dates back to 1954 - from the moment of creation of LFTS, which consisted of five cycles:
· Fire and tactical cycle;
· Cycle of fire engineering;
· A cycle of fire prevention;
· Cycle of social sciences;
· Military cycle;
Since June 26, 2013, the head of the Department of fire tactics and rescue operations was appointed a Doctor of technical sciences, professor, Academic of the Lift and Transport Academy of Sciences of Ukraine Gulida Eduard.
The department has a highly qualified professorial teaching staff:
The following training laboratories were created by the efforts of the scientific-pedagogical staff of the department of FT and RO:
· Computer laboratory of psychological training of the head of the elimination of emergency;
· Laboratory of fire tactics and dynamics of fires;
· Fire test laboratory;
· Training room for the organization of emergency rescue works;
· Training room of organization the elimination of emergencies;
· Training room for preparation of gas-smoke defender.
The Department of FT and RO provides training for specialists in the field of knowledge 26 "Civil Protection", specialty 261 "Fire safety", specialties "Fire safety", "Automatic fire protection systems", "Fire safety in construction", "Audit of fire and technogenic safety", as well as an educational master's degree in the field of knowledge 26 "Civil Protection", specialty 261"Fire safety", specialization "Fire safety". Cadets and students of the department FT and RO acquire the necessary knowledge and skills in the fire fighting tactics and conduct emergency and rescue works at objects of various functional purposes: tank farm, airport, veneer plant, thermal power station, elevator, railway, etc.
Cadets and students of the department of FT and RO in the process of studying are mastering the following professions:

ON THE DEPARTMENT OF FIRE TACTICS AND EMERGENCY RESCUE OPEARTIONS PERFORM SCIENTIFIC AND RESEARCH WORKS WITH THE AIM OF IMPROVING THE EFFICACY OF ELIMINATION OF EXTRAORDINARY SITUATIONS AND PROVIDING SECURITY OF LIFE
DEVELOPMENT OF METHODS OF CONDUCTING
EMERGENCY-RELATED WORKS BY HYDROGEN EMISSIONS IN A LIMITED SPACE (SR 0115U001352)
(scientific advisor, candidate of technical sciences, associate professor V.I. Lushch)
The results of the conducted experiments and their analysis allowed to determine the necessary equipment and techniques for conducting:
- rescue work for the salvation of people in a limited space on vertical sections;
- rescue work for rescuing people of limited space in horizontal areas;
- rescue rescue of domestic and wild animals.

To conduct the experiment, an underground reservoir with a mirror area of 0.062 m2 was modeled and filled with gasoline of the brand A-95, because this gasoline is more dangerous than other types of fuel available at the gas station of Ukraine. This study determined the quenching time and the amount of dry ice required to extinguish the fire in the tank. The time of free burning of oil in the reservoir was 5 minutes. Experiments were conducted alternately - using solid carbon dioxide and in combination with a solution of a foaming agent 1%.

For solving this goal held:
- theoretical studies of fire resistance of vermiculite-silicate slabs have been carried out, and the formulas of fire-retardant plates, which will be used in building fencing structures, have been developed.
Testing samples of test materials
The results of the first stages of the study of building enclosures using vermiculite-silicate plates showed that their fire resistance with existing enclosing structures increases in 3 ... 3,2 times.
The research work "Increase of fire resistance of building fencing structures by application of vermiculite-silicate slabs" was approved by the head of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine by the Major General of the Civil Protection Service M.O. Chechotkin according to the plan of research works from 25.01.2016.
(scientific advisor candidate of technical sciences O.D. Synelnikov)
Studies have been conducted to determine the effectiveness of pretreatment of biomass cyanobacteria (ultrasonic and hydrodynamic cavitation), which allowed to increase the completeness of the biomass decomposition. In addition, the expediency of using the spent substrate of cyanobacteria as bioorganic fertilizer has been investigated.
The results of the research showed that the previous hydrodynamic cavitation proved to be the most effective: the synthesis of biogas is increased by 40%; extraction of technical fat from cyanobacteria was able to increase by 3 times.
Science students and cadets:
Under the leadership of the scientific-research members of the department, cadets and students who are members of scientific society carry out research work and take part in scientific conferences and competitions.
Cultural events, entertainment:
Most scientific and pedagogical staff of the Department of fire tactics and emergency rescue work are curators of educational groups.
Each curator of the group relies on the following tasks: education of cadets of the culture of behavior, formation of high moral qualities in them, ensuring the unity of pedagogical requirements on the part of service and training, organization, in case of need, assistance to students (moral, psychological), building the relationship between cadets in the team on a democratic basis, cooperation, promotion of self-government development.
During the period of their curator, the department's staff did a lot of work, they carried out a number of activities aimed at improving the executive discipline, raising the level and quality of success in the ensemble group, namely: from the first days of training and services with the group held collective and individual conversations, meetings, thematic conversations , featured movie reviews. Constantly, work is under way to strengthen friendship and community in the group. To this end, cultural walks are carried out at the Lviv Historical Museum of the Palazzo Banginelli, the Memorial Museum of Victims of the Occupation Regimes "Prison on Lontsky", the Lviv National Academic Opera and Ballet Theater named after S. Krushelnytska, Museum-Arsenal, Lviv Historical Museum, royal halls, Lviv House of Organ and Chamber Music.
Scientific research work:
Deputy Chief of the Department Colonel of the Civil Protection Service, V. I. Lushch developed together with Professor Kovalyshin V.V. foam barrel combined shaft that is designed to feed foam of average multiplicity at a distance of at least 20 meters to extinguish fires of Class A (solids), B (flammable and combustible substances). This shaft is successfully used on the Lviv railway, in particular, the effectiveness of its use is noted during the accident with the release of yellow phosphorus in the village of Ozhydiv
Also, on the basis of LSULS under the leadership of Deputy Chief of the Department Colonel of the Civil Protection Service, V. Lushch a device for supplying a finely divided water jet for the deposition of combustion products, increasing visibility, and reducing the temperature in smoky rooms has been developed. This device improves the functioning of the gas-smoke defender service units, facilitates quicker search and rescue of the victims.
At present scientific and pedagogical staff of the department conduct the following dissertation researches:
1. "Improvement of the efficiency of quenching of peat deformations and peatlands" (Sukach R.Yu.)
