PROBLEMS OF ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY OF WATER TREATMENT FACILITIES
Abstract
The article justified the urgency of ensuring the environmental safety of water intake and treatment facilities in water supply systems by creating a complex of specialized protective equipment. The operation of water supply systems was analysed, as a result of which it was determined that the environmental safety of water intakes was insufficient. To solve this problem, the scientific justification of the ecologically sustainable operation of the natural-technical system of the specialized type "natural water environment - water management complex - agricultural water supply system" was carried out. The proposed systematic approach to solving the vital problems of ensuring the environmental safety of water intake facilities of water systems is to provide high-quality water to consumers in any operating conditions (mud, suspension) of agricultural water supply systems. At the same time, the complex of water and intake treatment facilities improves the river ecosystem.
