The tourism industry is concentrated within the boundaries of the Subcarpathia Forestry District of Ukraine. These are mostly resort complexes with recreation houses, hotels and restaurants. Since the issue of solid household waste processing has not been resolved in Ukraine, landfills are emerging near recreation facilities. Undoubtedly, such a situation contradicts the improvement processes, because landfills are objects of detonation of dangerous substances and compounds infiltrating into all components of the environment due to geochemical flows. The object of the conducted research was determination of chemical elements in the newly formed substrates on the surface of the following landfills, i.e. Bronytskyi, Stryiskyi, Boryslavskyi, which are located not far from the border with Poland within the tourist and recreational complex of the Lviv region of Ukraine, geographically belonging to the Subcarpathia Forestry District of Ukraine. It was established that the chemical elements of the toxic group and biogenic elements accumulate. The traces of individual elements were also determined. The Bronytskyi landfill is the most polluted with the following chemical elements: Pb (3.56-4.06 mg/kg), Zn (2.84-3.67 mg/kg), Gd (0.021-0.033 mg/kg), P (457.3-609.7 mg/kg), K (9.7-14.6 mg/kg), Ca (174.7-237.7 mg/kg), Ga (3.58-5,98 mg/kg), La (1.09-1.24 mg/kg), Y (0.013-0.014 mg/kg), Cd (0.15-0.176 mg/kg), Sn (0.013-0.018 mg/kg), Nd (0.029-0.046 mg/kg), Eu (0.022-0.036 mg/kg) and Th (0.05-0.078 mg/kg). The site of the Boryslav landfill is most polluted in the western side - Fe (16.06-19.72 mg/kg), Cu (0.37-0.43 mg/kg), Gd (0.003 mg/kg), Si (43-58.2 mg/kg), P (782.4-995.5 mg/kg), Ca (88.6-104.7 mg/kg), Mn (1.7-2.7 mg/kg), Sc (0.009 mg/kg), Cr (1.069-1.255 mg/kg), Y (0.015-0.016 mg/kg), Nd (0.016-0.018 mg/kg). In the eastern side of the Stryi landfill the presence of the following elements is most evident - Fe (18.98-27.97 mg/kg), Ni (0.09-0.21 mg/kg), Zn (0.14-0.19 mg/kg), Pb (0.05-0.1 mg/kg), Al (1.6-2.0 mg/kg), P (718.1-652.5 mg/kg), Mn (2.5-3.5 mg/kg), Ga (0.01 mg/kg), La (0.02-0.04 mg/kg), Cr (0.009-0.013 mg/kg), Ge (0.214-0.551 mg/ kg), Cd (0.014-0.02 mg/kg), Nd (0.017-0.037 mg/kg), Th (0.009-0.016 mg/kg). Such a detailed chemical analysis for the presented research objects was carried out for the first time. Determining of the chemical content of the newly formed substrate is important from the point of view of environmental protection solutions implementation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
