Water supply

Krasnova T.A., Timoshhuk I.V., Shulzhenko Ju.S.Development of the drinking water afterpurification technology from organic substances treated by ozonation. p.3-9

The research of adsorption of formaldehyde and acetaldehyde from water mixture on activated carbons of following types: AG-3 (coal based), ABG (wood based) and KsAU (drupaceous coal) which differ in nature, structure and specific surface is carried out. The main patterns, features and mechanisms of organic substances adsorption on active carbons are defined; kinetic and dynamic sorption process specifications which are necessary for engineering calculations are identified. It is presented that according to Giles’ classification formaldehyde adsorption isotherms refer to L-type, acetaldehyde adsorption isotherms – to S-type. The basis adsorption features using the theory of monomolecular adsorption (equation of Freundlich and Langmuir), theory of volume filling of micropores (Dubinin-Radushkevich equation) and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) theory of polymolecular adsorption which are necessary for engineering calculations of industrial adsorption plants are defined. The mechanism of mass transfer at adsorption of mixture of formaldehyde and acetaldehyde on different brands of activated carbon is presented. The coefficients of external mass transfer which are necessary for engineering calculations of adsorption column are calculated. The optimization method of parameters and modes of continuous absorption cleaning process based on the fundamental equation of external diffusion adsorption dynamics which is selected by the form of adsorption isotherm using adsorption constants of the Dubinin-Radushkevich equation and kinetic dependence is suggested. The fit of experimentally and theoretically calculated curves proves the validity of suggested approach to adsorption dynamics modeling and gives the opportunity to define the dynamic characteristics of adsorption without extra tests. The basic features of adsorption dynamics such as length of working layer, length of unused layer, protective action coefficient, which allowed defining column operating times, amount of treated water regarding the throughput rate, fixed layer depth and column size are defined.
On the base of complex research of organic substances adsorption process (equilibrium, kinetics and dynamics) and optimization of treatment mode and adsorption column parameters using mathematical modeling the technology solution for drinking water aftertreatment from formaldehyde and acetaldehyde formed on the stage of ozonation in the process of water treatment is developed.
Key words: adsorption, active carbons, drinking water, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde.

Hamidullina E.A., Timofeeva S.S., Davydkina O.A.Risk assessment of complex effect of water chlorination by-products on human health. p.10-18

The aim of presented work is the risk assessment of effect of volatile halogenorganic compounds contained in drinking water by the reason of using chlorine for water treatment on human health. The indicator of these compounds content is chloroform, which is dominant in trihalomethane content and which was included in the list of substances controlled in drinking water of the central domestic water supply system in the system of social-hygienic monitoring in Irkutsk Region in 2013. The calculation of multienvironmental cancer risk of chloroform effect including oral, inhalation and percutaneous routes of entry of substances into the human organism is performed. The calculation of the individual cancer risk is carried out using data of affecting concentrations, exposure value and cancerogenic potential factors value. It is presented that the relative contribution to the formation of the total individual risk of chloroform content in drinking water of adsorbed cutaneous dose, ingestion intake and inhalation exposure is defined by the ratio of 1: 0,6 : 2000. Thus, the greatest risk is caused by inhalation. It is found out that even if chloroform concentrations in water is below the allowable level the significant number of additional cases of oncology diseases is expected. According to the calculations up to 1212 additional (to underlying) cases of tumorogenesis may occur to the population of the city of Irkutsk throughout the life due to the effect of inhaling vaporizing chloroform. The presented regularity is observed in the values of population annual carcinogenic risk. The performed calculations indicate the necessity to make optimal management decisions on refraining from using free chlorine for water disinfection.
Key words: volatile halogenorganic compounds, chloroform, drinking water, cancer risk, risk assessment.

Mokienko A.V., Petrenko N.F., Gozhenko A.I.Hygienic estimation of biocide actions of ozone at water disinfecting. p. 19-25

Analysis of the biocidal effect of ozone shows the following.
The process of inactivation of bacteria (Escherichia coli) runs into two stages - fast initial inactivation, which then becomes slower. At the fast stage (first 3 min) speed of withering bacteria away increases exponentially with increasing of ozone doses. With further increase in the dose of ozone inactivation drops sharply and almost does not depend on the ozone dose (slow stage, the exposure period of 3-7 min). it has been established that the higher the dose of ozone, the greater its antimicrobial effect is while disinfecting efficacy viewed at the following procedure for each of inactivated bacteria, decreases. Therefore, the lack of ozone is a reactivation of some amount of the damaged bacteria and aftereffects absence.
This is typical for viruses (coliphage MS2 and poliovirus). After the initial rapid and high inactivation after 60 seconds it was absent at all doses. MS2 coliphage recovery installed after the initial inactivation. The infectivity of the RNA phage f2 after the destruction of the capsid has been shown.
Experimental results show that ozone is effective inactivator of Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts in drinking water disinfection provided that the minimum level of 104 oocysts / ml, which higher than the ones identified in surface waters.
When studying the sporicidal action of ozone they have established that that the supended spores are completely inactivated under the influence of the water saturated with ozone (10 mg / l) in 8 min.
Ozone affects the structure of the protective coating of microalgae Scenedesmus sp. with the damage of photosynthetic apparatus and extracellular withdrawal of intracellular contents and its subsequent oxidation.
Thus, analysis of the literature confirms the indisputable fact: the use of ozone for disinfection of tap water is only possible if the secondary disinfection (e.g., with chlorine or chlorine dioxide) before entering of water distribution network takes place.
Key words: ozone, water, bacteria, viruses, protozoa, spores, microalgae, disinfection.

Water disposal

Kulakov A.A.Assessment of the current state of the small municipal wastewater treatment facilities. p.26-40

The article presents the performance assessment of waste water treatment plants of small populated areas. The main technological link at the investigated objects is biological treatment in biofilters, aerotanks, package units and bioreactors. The information about technological schemes of waste water treatment and sludge treatment, content of incoming and treated waste waters, design capacity and actual water disposal volume and approved environmental regulations for output is analyzed. The survey of objects presents the high degree of their obsolescence and physical deterioration as a result of their many years service without major reconstruction. The majority of structures and equipments require repair or replacement; production and auxiliary buildings are in emergency conditions. Planned technologies do not meet modern environmental standards: the standard for nitrogen ammonia is met only by 5 %, for phosphate-phosphorus – by 3%. Current decisions on deep waste water treatment are difficult to adapt at small facilities just by their scaling. Such approach do not take into account the specific nature of small water disposal systems, economic and technological capacity and professional skills of workers of the housing services and utilities of small residential areas. In the study factors that have a negative effect on small treatment plants operation such as technological (hydraulic underload, operation disturbance, high scale of deterioration), organizational (low capacity of plants, lack of equipment required for fault-free performance, unskilled level of staff, spatial distance of facilities) and economic (high specific capital and operating costs, unprofitability of small water utilities) are detected and classified. The interaction among them is noted and ways to solve these factors are suggested. The complex of measures based on enlargement of water utilities, staff retraining and prioritization of modernization for development of small plants of the housing services and utilities is presented.
Key words: small municipal wastewater treatment facilities, modernization, operational complexity, work optimization, barrier options.

Mariusz Starzec, Jozef Dziopak, Michail I. AlexeevEffect of the sewer basin increasing to necessary useful capacity of multichamber impounding reservoir. p.41-50

The article presents the analysis of connection of new sewer basins by necessary useful capacity of impounding reservoir. Calculation modeling is carried out for two extra sewer basins with different localization in relation to the current basin. The impounding rainwater reservoir is located in the end of the sewerage network. Calculations indicate that sewer basin enlargement by means of a new construction requires increasing useful cubic capacity of the reservoir in the full range of values of the runoff intensity reduction coefficient (?). It is also found out that some of the applied methods of calculations and designing of impounding reservoirs may cause significant understatement of their capacity.
Key words: sewage systems, designing, impounding reservoir.

Currently the main pollutants of urban areas are heavy metals and radioisotopes. The observation points in the central city districts where the highest population density is focused, the main road and rail transport hubs and industrial objects are located were selected for monitoring studies of distribution of heavy metals as well as radiocarbon in the snow cover of Saint-Petersburg. Snow samples were taken in February-April 2011, 2012 and in March 2013, 2014. For the comparison samples were also taken in a municipal town Pushkin which is relatively favorable on environmental indicators. The results of the snowchemical survey with the scale 1:100 000 and 1:200 000 allowed to justify interval boundaries of the analyzed parameters classification and design evaluation maps of distribution of heavy metals and 3Н and 14С in the central districts of Saint-Petersburg and in the municipal town Pushkin using ArcGIS technologies. The studies’ results presented the main pollution sources in the central districts of the city related to industrial zones and motorways. The radiocarbon concentration change in the snow cover of the city can be used as an indicator of carbon compounds concentration grade change in the atmosphere and, consequently, technogenic and anthropogenic urban pollution.
Key words: long-lived radioactive isotopes 14С и 3Н, heavy metals, snow cover pollution, Saint-Petersburg, GIS mapping, poly aromatic hydrocarbon.

Filatov N.I., Baranov A.E., Kazanceva N.N., Belov A.E., Erohin M.A.Prospects of sea water conversion for water supply of the Crimea. p.3-13

The prospects of the Crimea water supply in terms of the lack of the Dnieper water supply from the mainland of Ukraine is estimated: the use of local surface water sources and underground waters, transfer of water from the Kuban river through the Kerch Strait. Prospectively a quick and maximally effective solution for the stable supply of the population with fresh water of standard quality is the conversion of sea water and brackish underground water. The basis of the reverse-osmosis water conversion technology of waters of the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov for supply of coastal towns and villages incurring an acute fresh water deficit, and brackish underground waters for the flatland agroindustrial complex entities is presented. Due to the relatively low salinity and boron concentration in comparison to waters of the World Ocean the construction costs for desalination units are planned to be 1.5 times lower than the worldwide average ones.
Key words: water supply, water conversion, sea water, artesian water

Poljakov V.L.Theoretical analysis of plane radial filtration. p.14-24

The article is dedicated to the theoretical analysis of the unconventional method of filtration that expects the use of filters of a new construction and the creation of a new method of their engineering design. The mathematical problem of the plane radial filtration in a cylindrical-shaped loading layer at constant hydraulic load and suspension supply through the external lateral surface is specified. The mass exchange between liquid and solid phases of the loading is described by a lineral equation with variable coefficients due to dependence of the processes of suspension particles settling and detachment on the filtration rate. The particular rigorous solution and general approximate solution to the presented mathematical problem are obtained. The first solution can be used if the stuck-on particles detachment does not depend on the filtration rate; the second one considers a connection with the filtration rate of both mass exchange coefficients. The comparison of two solutions shows that the approximate solution provides a minimum error in filtration performance calculation. On the base of the approximate solution the method of process parameter validation is developed. The basic equations are those in which the protective power time of loading and pressure loss access time of the maximum permissible value are easily defined by selection; and on this basis the filter cycle duration is defined too. With a detailed comparison of the plane radial filtration with the common straight-flow filtration it is proved that the filter cycle duration at the plane radial filtration due to the more even silt deposition in the loading can increase more than twice. The equations which allow choosing a technologically optimal geometry of the loading layer by selection are presented as well. The evaluation of radius and load height in which the filer cycle duration is maximal are demonstrated with an example.
Key words: radial filtration, cylindrical filter medium, suspension, concentration, head losses, filtercycle, model.

Kondratyeva L.M., Lytvynenko Z.N.Effect of organic substances on biofilm formation in ferriferous underground waters. p.25-38

The article presents the effect of nitrogen-containing organic substances and humic compounds on the biofilm formation by microorganisms of natural ferriferous underground waters. The formation of slime biofilms depends on the accessibility of carbon source and presence of soluble ions of Fe+2. The preconditions of the pore volume colmatage around wells are presented on the example of cultural characteristics, adhesive capacity, light and electron microscopy of biofilm, formed by microbial complex of different aquifers. On the base of the analysis of elemental composition of young and mature biofilm it is found that ions of Fe, Mn, Ca and P have a “cementing effect” on biomass which can fill the pore volume and reduce efficiency of the bailing of underground waters.
Key words: iron-containing underground waters, biofilm, organic substances, colmatage.

Tumin A.N., Cheban V. G.Improvement of performance characteristics of roll ultrafiltration module by means of stabilization of the shared liquid flow travel speed. p.39-48

The roll ultrafiltration module of standard design is defined by reduction of shared liquid flow travel speed lengthwise the membrane element pressure passage. Along with that the pollution particle concentration in shared liquid at its filtration in the roll ultrafiltration module constantly increases from the pressure passage input to its output. Thus, it is obvious that the maintenance of the stable travel speed of shared liquid flow along the length of the membrane element pressure passage with constant partial discharge of polluted liquid will assist in improvement of performance characteristics of the roll ultrafiltration module in time. The design of the roll ultrafiltration module which allows maintaining the relatively stable travel speed of shared liquid flow lengthwise the membrane element pressure passage.
Key words: water, ultrafiltration, roll module, membrane element.

Tumin A.N.Theoretical research of the sediment layer formation process and its breakdown from the ultrafiltration membrane surface. p.49-56

In operation of the ultrafiltration module its performance characteristics eventually go down. According to opinions of the majority of researches the main reason of it is the pollution particle accumulation on the surface of membrane in the ultrafiltration module. The process of the pollution particle accumulation on the surface of membrane mainly depends on a selected hydrodynamic operation mode of the ultrafiltration module (tangential and dead-end modes). It is more preferable to use a tangential mode with an optimal selection of the liquid flow rate in the module pressure passage for industrial ultrafiltration modules. Currently there is no exact theoretical justification on selection of the optimal performance parameters for the ultrafiltration module and for the unit in general. The presented work is aimed to expand the theoretical background on studying the operation features of the ultrafiltration module that will allow improving the reliability and service time of the whole ultrafiltration unit.

Water disposal

Voronov Ju.V., Shirkova T.N.Artificial water reservoir as a drainage system element. p.57-65

The article gives a detailed examination of the use of artificial water reservoirs in drainage systems for ground protection from inundation by ground water. The three main variants of the design model of the drainage system control using water reservoirs are presented. The theory is based on the prearranged technological territory which has the appropriate hydraulic parameters. The variant where the groundwater level is higher than desired is examined in more detail. The calculation of the artificial pond is carried out on the principle of a reserve water supply per drain into the drainage system, that is, the prescribed top water level is constantly maintained in the artificial water reservoir by means of swapping by deep-well pump from water underflows. If the natural water reservoir level is higher than the ground water level of the technological area than the collector array should be provided with an external dam with drainage channels located higher than the natural water reservoir level. Also the examples of the artificial water reservoir use for the designing of the drainage system in the Imeretinsky Valley of Krasnodar Krai for holding the Olympic Games 2014 are presented. The artificial water reservoirs are designed in the South-Eastern part of the considered territory and cover the area of 23, 27 ha. On the plane the reservoirs have an elongated form and a width of 50 m to 100 m. The project provides the design and construction of the reservoirs cascade for improving the drainage capacity of the Imeretinsky Valley’s territory planned to be developed. The static water level is maintained by the activity of the runoff water system pump station located next to one of the reservoirs. The designed reservoirs profile is defined from the conditions of the maximum extraction of the sand-gravel soil volume with their subsequent use for area filling, i.e. the reservoirs are used as quarries. There is a bypass-pipe equipment among reservoirs to combine all reservoirs capacities in a unified hydraulic system. The overflow pipes are designed for an uninterrupted income of rain and drain waters, accumulating in the designed reservoirs, to the pump station intake works in case of the water level rise higher than expected at rainfall flood passage. The functionally artificial water reservoirs are located in a built-up area and are supposed to be used for recreation of citizens.
Key words: artificial water reservoir, drainage system, groundwater level, ground protection, bypass pipe.

The methane concentration change observed in treatment shows the possibility to use the level of its content for assessment of the waste water treatment efficiency at the waste water treatment plant (WWTP). The article presents the research results at the WWTP of the city of Rostov-on-Don by indication of the methane concentration on every step of waste water treatment and gives a description of the flow chart of the waste water and sludge treatment process at the plant. According to the indication results the concentration of methane in waste water incoming to the aeration plant changes within 348,9-1640,4 mcl/l making at average 11304 mcl/l. The dramatic decrease (in 100-400 times) of the methane concentration after the aerotank (up to 2-5 mcl/l) is observed, that is caused by the intensive water aeration and its passing through the activated sludge biomass whereby the activity of methanogenic microorganisms is suppressed and the favorable conditions for methane oxidation are created. After passing through all treatment steps the methane concentration reduces to 11,0 mcl/l.
Key words: aeration plant, sewage water, technological treatment steps, methane concentration.

Mihajlenko R.R., Tsvetkova L.I., Kopina G.I.On the question of water body ecological state management with the use of hydrotechnical constructs.p.3-19

On the example of the Saint Petersburg Flood Protection Barrier (FPB) the article presents the opportunity to manage the water body ecological state by using hydrotechnical constructs. At the design stage the FPB was meant to be used not only for the city protection from floods but for ecological problem solution as well. The results of a large-scale field experiment on maneuvering the discharge opening locks of the FPB which was carried out in 1992 when the protective structures were built only in the Northern Gate of the Neva Bay are presented. The experiment results proved a fundamental possibility of hydrological regime management of the Neva Bay water area and the eastern part of the Gulf of Finland. The data showing that the ecological state of water bodies depends both on human impact as well as on natural hydrodynamic factors is given. It is a basis for using the hydrotechnical constructs for the management of hydrological regime and environmental situation. Then a program of the experiment on maneuvering in conditions of a complete construction of the FPB which was done only in 2011 is presented. The experiment results allow developing a regulation of maneuvering the discharge opening locks of the FPB for the management of hydrological regime, sanitary and environmental situation in the Neva Bay and the eastern part of the Gulf of Finland in case of emergency. The precedent of the FPB use for the ecological situation management in the Neva Bay and in the Gulf of Finland can be useful for other water objects which have hydrotechnical constructs allowing managing the hydrological regime.

Water supply

Kobyljanskij V.Ja., Vasilenko S.L.Comprehensive assessment of drinking water quality in the city water-supply network.p.20-28

Toughening of requirements to quality of drinking water at the regulatory level is active particularly in extension of the controlled parameters list. It undeniably increases a drinking water supply safety guarantee but complicates a comprehensive assessment of water quality broadly in the city water-supply network in a spaciotemporal profile. First of all, difficulties occur at the grouping of various parameters of water quality with different metrics due to a large set of control points in a certain integral indicator. The article proposes a procedure of determining of a water quality comprehensive assessment which enables to assess the drinking water quality broadly in the city as well as in its separate parts and at various time intervals. The comprehensive assessment is based on ranking the quality parameters and control points. The parameters are differentiated by harmful indexes and hazard classes using cumulative coefficients and regulation regarding the threshold limit value. The cumulative coefficients are set on the base of exponential relations as well as on the base of the value which is applied for a quantitative assessment of critical transitions which refers to a gradation of chemical substance hazard levels for living organisms either. Weight coefficients are assigned as objects of control on the bases of the representativeness of the observation points and number of consumers using water from a given site of the city water supply network. The selection of the control points and assigning them the weights of importance are mainly determined by local conditions. The formalized representation of the result of water quality changes in the city during a predetermined period of time is carried out using a matrix representation of analysis data. In order to clarify the calculations, a basic set of physico-chemical parameters of drinking water quality on the base of the sanitary rules and the regulations of surface water protection from pollution is made.
Key words: drinking water, integral assessment, water supply system, networks.

The regularities of heavy metal cation adsorption from water solutions by a nanocomposite sorption material based on activated carbon and nanodispersed zirconium oxide (IV) are studied in the article. In obtaining the nanocomposite a homogeneous chemical deposition method where urea was used as a precipitator was employed. The sorption isotherms of different heavy metal cations by the nanocomposite material were made and their kinetic parameters were defined. By a potentiometric titration method and infrared spectroscopy a mechanism of interaction of the nanocomposite sorption material with heavy metal cations (on the example of iron ions) is found out and the nature of adsorption bond is identified. The investigation result shows that the efficiency of sorption extraction of heavy metal cations by the synthesized nanocomposite material based on active carbon and nanodispersed zirconium oxide (IV) increases with the increasing of their charge and size (the maximum degree of extraction is observed in the case of iron (III) while the nanocomposite absorbance capacity to iron makes 88,2 mg/g). It is also found out that the adsorption of all investigated heavy metal cations proceeds in accordance with the Langmuir model and has the chemical nature of interaction: the strength of chemical bond “adsorbate-adsorbent” is the greater, the less the cationic contaminant size. When extracting heavy metal cations by the synthesized nanocomposite material there is mainly the irreversible specific adsorption with the formation of a ?-FeOOH –type crystal structure on the surface of the nanodispersed zirconium oxide (IV) phase.
Key words: heavy metals, adsorption, activated carbon, zirconium oxide (IV), nanocomposite.

Water disposal

Ermolin Ju. A., Alekseev M. I. Real-time control of a big city head-and-gravity flow sewage disposal system: capabilities and technical realizability. p.39-48

The principle possibility of the real-time control of a big city head-and-gravity flow sewage disposal system that has a hydraulic connection between separate sewer basins is analyzed. The control refers to a targeted redistribution of waste water flows through the sewer network facilities. The approaches to a mathematic modeling of water disposal system are examined; the practice-based assumptions greatly simplifying the model are discussed. Formally the problem of the object control reduces to an optimization problem on the criterion of minimum total costs of energy consumed by all network sewage pumping stations in the process of waste water transportation to treatment facilities. In order to test the offered method of control the series of active experiments were carried out on the site of the waste water transportation system of Moscow. The experimental site represented a fragment of a sewer network with 11 inputs and included 9 sewage pumping station which perform about two thirds of the total energy consumption by all sewage pumping station of Moscow. Each sewage pumping station was characterized by its own specific energy consumption. The “typical” daily diagrams of water consumption at the site inputs approximated with a step function of time with the 1-hour intervals of constancy. The optimal distribution of waste water flows through the network facilities was defined for every source data combination as a result of a solution of linear programming problem. Due to the absence of locking and controlling devices in the network the flow redistribution was actually implemented only at the site of sewage pumping station by means of switching of station pump units on a predefined time program linked with an optimization problem solution. The series of experiments included 40 days of the optimal mode and 40 control days of the traditional mode of site operation. The comparison of obtained data showed a statistically steady decrease of the specific energy consumption costs at the experimental operation for more than 4%. The network program control is compulsory; it uses the potential options of the optimal control only partially. However, if a fully automatic control of a big city water disposal system is only a prospective, than a program control can be implemented with the minimal maintenance costs today.
Key words: sewage network, real-time control, power costs, mathematic modeling, control criterion, optimization.

Dan E.L., Butenko Je.O., Kapustin A.E.Neutralisation of hydrogen sulfide from industrial waste water by oxidation. p.49

Currently, problems of rational using of water resources and environmental protection are in the foreground in the environmental policy of Ukraine. This issue is particularly relevant in terms of Mariupol (Ukraine) as well as sewage steel and coke enterprises are the source of a variety of toxic substances, including sulfide compounds that later fall into nearby water bodies (rivers and Kalchyk Kalmius Sea of Azov) . Also, the source of these compounds are slag dumps as contaminated infiltration water washed into groundwater and surface water, which later fall into the Sea of Azov. These substances have a negative impact on human health and the environment. Therefore it is necessary to find the most optimal method of neutralization of sulfide compounds (including hydrogen sulfide) under these conditions. For example, in 1999 the main city enterprises (AZOVSTAL IRON & STEEL WORKS and ILYICH IRON AND STEEL WORKS (Metinvest holding, System Capital Management) was dropped into water bodies 885.0 million. m? of wastewater (including 403.9 million. m? of polluted waste water). There are 97 mg / l of sulfides in the studied protective dam of AZOVSTAL IRON & STEEL WORKS, which exceeding the norm (MPC = 10 mg / l). Therefore the kinetics of neutralization of hydrogen sulfide and sulfide compounds from industrial wastewater by oxidation by oxygen was studied, and the possibility of using this method in the conditions of AZOVSTAL IRON & STEEL WORKS(Mariupol, Ukraine) was analyzed. On the basis of the researches conclusions was made and prospects of using this method was identified.
Key words: slag, hydrogen sulfide, sulfide, oxidation, oxygen, water.

Ecology

Evdokimov A.A., Kiss V.V.Dimensioning of hydrocarbon drops in water. p.50-66

In order to assess the risk of hydrocarbon ingress into natural water bodies the authors suggest examining the forces affecting a single drop of “oil” in endless motionless liquid (water). The developed mathematical model considers both the surface tension forces which strive to put a drop into a spherical shape as well as the volume forces which strive to reduce the potential energy of the drop. With a balance of the affecting forces the drop takes a shape of an ellipsoid of revolution which size can be calculated by the methods of mathematical analysis. The obtained results allow defining the amount of spilled product as well as the thickness of a hydrocarbon film by the area of the oil slick. For implementing the necessary calculations it is sufficient to know the spilled hydrocarbon density and the surface tension coefficient at the boundary with water. The examples of “drop” dimensioning for two products: gasoline and mazut are presented.
Key words: oil spills, hydrocarbon drops in water, the surface tension coefficient at the phase boundary, monitoring, localization and collection of spilled hydrocarbons.

The largest bay on the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus is Tsemes bay. Novorossiysk city with a population of more than 300 thousand inhabitants is located on the shores of the bay. The most important commercial port of southern Russia is located here. The largest centre of the cement industry operates here on the basis of the developed marl deposit. Cement production is a major source of pollution in the city and the surrounding area. Biogeochemical study of 150 samples of algae revealed the water areas with adverse environmental conditions. Intense accumulation of heavy metals by algae occurs within these areas. Ten years of biogeochemical monitoring showed the general trend of increasing contents of pollutants in algae. Geobotanical study allowed to reveal the most contaminated sites within the waters of Tsemes bay, where the disappearance of most of the species of algae was noted.
Key words: Black sea; environmental geochemistry; macrophytes; algae; phytoindication; heavy metals.

Water Supply

Belyaeva N.F., Mikhailova M.V., Zolotarev K.V., Torkhovskaya T.I., Nakhod K.V., Mikhailov A.N., Nakhod V.I.Xenobiotics in water of drinking water supply sources. p.18-33

The brief review of currently available data on the presence of xenobiotics in water objects – drinking water supply sources – of some economically developed countries is presented. The issues of water protection generally make a significant aspect of the environmental protection problem almost in all developed countries and are under the authority of the appropriate institutions and organizations. The European Union Water Framework Direvtive gives a list which includes about 40 priority xenobiotics to be compulsorily monitored among which are pesticides, heavy metals, halogenated arenes, alkanes, phenols and diphenyl ethers. In order to detect a risk of a total toxic effect of the xenobiotics present in water objects, the biomonitoring with the use of different biological objects is carried out. The biomonitoring gives an opportunity to estimate a general biological effect of a mixture of xenobiotics, often unidentified. With the development of new methods allowing measuring the concentration of substances in the order of ng/l, the detecting of so-called “emerging” xenobiotics became possible. These xenobiotics are not presented in the current water composition standards, and there is little information about their behavior in water ecosystems and their toxicological properties. In order to detect and identify the emerging polar xenobiotics concentration, a high-performance liquid chromatography conjugated with a spectrophotometric detection in an ultraviolet spectral range (HPLC-UV) or with a mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) is used. For more non-polar and thermostable compounds a gas-liquid chromatography with a mass-spectrometry detection (GLC-MS) is more frequently used. A special attention is paid to a problem of natural water pollution with drug compounds related to the emerging xenobiotics. The algorithm of xenobiotics ranking by their hazard for ecosystems and their use on the example of own determinations of hydrophobic organic water compounds concentration in the drinking water supply sources and water objects of Moscow city is presented.
Key words: xenobiotics, drinking water supply source water, biomonitoring, raking.

The background and topicality of the development of a reagentless two-stage biotechnology of groundwater conditioning with the use of a bioreactor with jet vacuum ejection and contact bed along with a polystyrene foam moving bed filter on the first stage are presented. The laboratory test results on a vacuum distribution of a necessary value and degree over the bioreactor area at a certain height of a compact jet and a diameter ratio between stream-forming noozles and supply pipeline are given. The dynamics of a layered change of рН, Eh и O2 in the bioreactor with a partially unsubmerged bed depending on a filtration and contact time is studied. The analysis of a plant operational efficiency in conditions of the industrial operation of a groundwater conditioning station is carried out. It is found that iron bacteria of Leptothrix ochracea and Gallionella types, detected in the sediments, isolated from washwater of the bioreactor and filter, take part in the oxidation processes of the compounds of dissolved forms of iron and manganese. It is presented that at the iron content in the initial water from 1,07 up to 9,79 mg/l, at manganese content – from 0,14 up to 0,45 mg/l, at ammonium ion content from 0,67 up to 1,44 mg/l and the presence of hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide at the output of the plant, the quality of treated water satisfies the normative requirements.
Key words: groundwater, biochemical deferrization and demanganization, reagentless technology, jet vacuum ejection bioreactor, moving bed filter.

Belyak A.A., Smirnov A.D., Khodyrev V.M.Assessment of zeolite-containing Tripoli applicability in the storm runoff treatment system. p. 44-55

Nowadays literature presents more and more information on applicability of natural sorptive filtering materials for removal of dispersive admixtures, oil and oil-products, dyes, radioactive contamination, heavy metal ions and etc. from water. The new sorptive filtering material – zeolite-containing Tripoli is made of Tripoli of Khotynetsky deposit in Oryol Oblast by the method of crushing and heat treating. The crushed and heat-treated natural Tripoli for sorption of truly dissolved oil-products from a model solution is tested. The static sorption capacity for both options of material by oil-products is defined. The layout of the working stormwater treatment facilities of Moscow is described; the stromwater composition on the estimated stage of aftertreatment with the use of the zeolite-containing Tripoli bed is presented. The model laboratory plant for testing of heat-treated zeolite-containing Tripoli is developed. The testing of the zeolite-containing Tripoli material in dynamic conditions for the true wastewater aftertreatment on the final stage of treatment from oil-products, metal ions, copper, zinc, chromium as well as ammonium ions is presented. On the basis of the analysis results of initial and treated water samples, the elution curves on each contaminator are designed, and their dynamic sorption capacities on oil-products, ions of ammonium and zinc are calculated. The efficiency of treatment from metals and copper in the form of hydroxides using the zeolite-containing Tripoli bed is presented. It is shown that oil-products content in waste waters in the periods of emergency situations increases in several time and they present in three forms: truly dissolved, colloidal and emulsion. The testing on treatment of real wastewaters contained oil-products in all forms in dynamic conditions is carried out. The efficiency of treatment from oil-products contained in water in three forms is estimated. The received testing results of the crushed zeolite-containing Tripoli for real wastewater treatment from oil-products and heavy metals show its efficient applicability on the working treatment plants. The specialist of JSC "NII VODGEO" offer the engineering solutions of reconstruction of zeolite-containing Tripoli bed filters. After the reconstruction of facilities, the material of the zeolite-containing Tripoli will be loaded into production filters and brought into the facility work.
Key words: zeolite-containing Tripoli, sorptive filtering material, sorption, sorption bed, sorption capacity, oil-products, ammonium ion, heavy metal ions, storm wastewaters, aftertreatment, wastewater treatment plants.

The article presents the laboratory research results on extraction of heavy metal ions from wastewater sludge. The wastewater sludge of the Almaty aeration station before being discharged to the sludge beds was used as a sample of experimental research. The laboratory experimental research was carried out with the use of a natural zeolite of Chankaysky deposit, 2,5-5 mm in size preliminary placed in water for 54 hours. The zeolite was places in the 500 ml measuring vessels in amount of 50, 100 and 200 ml; then wastewater sludge samples were added into the measuring vessels up to the mark of 400 ml. After that, the samples were thoroughly mixed and soaked in water for 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours. According to the experimental research results, it is proved that it is advantageous to use the natural zeolite for extraction of heavy metal ions from wastewater sludge. On extraction of heavy metals, including manganese, chromium, zinc, iron and copper, the regularity of extraction is within a range from 2,4 to 47,9%. At that point, the maximum effect of 47,9 % at the zeolite volume of 200 ml is observed for the manganese pollutant.
Key words: wastewater sludge, treatment, neutralization, natural zeolite, utilization, fertilization.
