groundwater

The purpose of this research is to conduct a predictive assessment of the impact of hazardous geodynamic processes on underground construction in the central part of Lviv. These processes are linked to specific geological structures, hydrogeological conditions, unique rock properties, and the chemical composition of groundwater. Relevance of work. In Lviv and many other large cities in Ukraine, transportation and parking problems are extremely acute.

The provision of quality drinking water is one of the most important conditions for public health, especially in urban areas. Like many other settlements, the city of Mykolaiv faces problems with the quality of water supplied to consumers. This study evaluated some bacteriological parameters of drinking water supplied from different sources in the city and conducted a comparative analysis of the effectiveness of using plant coagulants for disinfection. Water samples were collected from underground sources, artesian wells, the municipal water supply network, and the Bug Estuary.

The absorption of air oxygen by water in the horizontal absorber with bucket-shaped dispersants (HABD) and the vertical apparatus with a continuous bubbling layer (VABL) was studied. It is shown that these processes occur according to the law of First-Order Reactions. It was found that the constant absorption rate is 46.5 times higher in HABD than in VABL at a gas content of 0.05 and a bubble diameter of 0.002 m. It is recommended to use the VABL device for water deironing at pH <6, and for pH greater than 6.0 - HABD.

The accumulation of highly mineralized waters and brines in the mining-industrial regions of Ukraine carry a threat of salt pollution of underground and surface water sources. Low-waste processing of these waters is prevented by iron compounds, hydrogen sulfide and sulfur-containing organic compounds. The process of accumulation of iron compounds in brines and groundwater in the presence of hydrogen sulfide has been studied. Comparative calculations of the thermodynamic potentials of the corresponding reactions have been carried out.

The life path and the range of scientific interests of Professor Tamerlane Safranov are described. The main results of the scientific research in the field of organic geochemistry, hydrogeochemistry, environmentology, optimization of nature management and environmental education are presented.

The oxidation rate of ferrum(II) to ferrum(III) by air oxygen in water has been investigated in the horizontal absorber with bucket-like dispersers. The reaction order relative to Fe2+ and –OH ions has been determined based on established dependencies of ferrum(II) ions concentration on dispersion time at their various initial concentrations and medium pH. It has been shown for the first time that at pH = 5.5–6.2 in water during oxidation of ferrum(II) ions an autocatalysis occurs due to the formed ferrum(III) ions.
