Popis: This article addresses the ecological conditions in the territories adjacent to chemical and metallurgical facilities. It provides a description of the emissions from these polluting facilities as well as the damage that these emissions cause to human habitats, flora, and fauna. To exercise ecological control over the environment within the sanitary protection zones (SPZ) of these enterprises, we propose the use of an Automated System of Environmental Situation Control (ASESC), a system that uses sensors and is based on Nuclear Power Plant Automated Radiation Monitoring System (NPP ARMS) designs. The basic system requirements are presented along with the working principles of the system, the upper and lower estimates of the SPZ size, and the method used to estimate the optimal number of system sensors for detecting and measuring environmental pollution.
