Purpose/reason for writing the paper: Carrying out a cost-benefit analysis of large infrastructure projects in the area of transport causes considerable difficulties and problems in identifying the positive and negative factors of project implementation, and their translation into cash flows generated by the project. The aim of the paper is to present problem solving in the course of financial analysis and economic analysis of an infrastructure transport project. Methodology/approach to problem solving/scope of the study: The scope of the study and the approach to the problem include: • presentation of the role of cost-benefit analysis in the process of assessing the competitiveness of infrastructure transport projects in terms of making decisions about their co-financing from community funds; • characteristics of general assumptions of financial analysis and economic analysis of projects in the transport sector; • discussion of the methodologies of quantification and monetization of socio-economic factors and factors influencing the external environment in the process of assessing the economic effects of a transport project on the regional and national scale; • indication of the latest sources of methodological support for the preparation of cost-benefit analysis (CBA) of the project; • embedding the issues of financial and economic analysis in the context of the requirements for beneficiaries' application for grants from the funds. Arrangements: Different methodologies are used in transport projects to quantify and monetize the impact of individual factors on the external and socio-economic environment. The paper indicates the latest methodological studies, the scope of their application, examples of calculations and recommendations for beneficiaries on how to adjust the information they have to a specific project situation. Practical implications: Adaptation of the Beneficiary to the applicable and recommendation source materials, knowledge of methodologies for conducting analyses increases the probability of reliable preparation of documentation and obtaining a positive decision regarding financial support for the planned investment project. Social implications: Correct and consistent analysis of projects increases the effectiveness of obtaining their co-financing from EU funds. On the other hand, the implementation of modern infrastructure transport projects is a social good that increases the comfort of passengers, reduces the operating costs of carriers, reduces carbon dioxide emissions, noise and local environmental pollution, contributes to saving time and reducing road accidents. Originality/value of the study (for whom?): The paper is directed and will be useful for investors, as well as beneficiaries of community funds, in order to prepare project documentation for the implementation, execution and operation of infrastructure projects in the field of transport.

Wzrastające zapotrzebowanie na maszyny i urządzenia do recyklingu odpadów tworzywowych w kraju stwarza problemy prawidłowego doboru wielkości i rodzajów poszczególnych urządzeń pod kątem efektywności przedsięwzięcia utylizacyjnego. Ważne w tym przypadku jest przede wszystkim ścisłe określenie warunków początkowych, tj. ilości odpadów, ich składu ilościowego i jakościowego oraz warunków końcowych, tzn. celu podejmowanego przedsięwzięcia. Wynik takich rozważań decyduje o podejmowaniu dalszych prac, a przede wszystkim jest pomocny w określeniu opłacalności procesu. W artykule przedstawiono także porównanie niektórych problemów recyklingu tworzyw zagranicą i w kraju, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem skali zbioru odpadów oraz cen niektórych produkowanych na świecie zestawów urządzeń stosowanych do tego celu (tabela 1). Przedstawiono także maszyny i urządzenia produkcji krajowej tworzące linie przeznaczone do wykonywania niektórych operacji objętych recyklingiem tworzyw; powinny one zainteresować potencjalnych inwestorów w kraju.

The ever-increasing demands for machines and devices to recycle post-consumer plastics wastes offer problems of how to select correctly the size and type of the machine in view of the expected efficiency of the utilization process. Initial conditions have to be precisely established, including the amount and volume of wastes, the qualitative and quantitative composition, the contaminants present, and the final conditions of end use. Such data will decide whether or not to continue with the design and how to evaluate the profitability of the whole recycling process. Recycling problems, in Poland and abroad, are discussed, including the scale of collection of post-consumer plastics and the equipment available for recycling purposes. Selected machines and devices for some recycling operations are presented. They should be of interest for domestic investors.
