Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of the problem of utilisation of the Buzky estuary sludge contaminated with chemical and radionuclide pollutants due to a significantan thropogenic load on its hydro ecosystem: use in transport logistics and through sewage discharges. Since these sludges can be a valuable fertiliser for solving many environmental problems that require the provision/introduction of organic matter/fertilisers, the article investigates the possibility of using dredged contaminated estuarine sludges for remediation of the surface of sludge pits at Mykolaiv Alumina Plant LLC. A method of simultaneously solving two separate environmental problems of Mykolaiv (disposal of contaminated sludge from the Buzky estuary and deflation of toxicants from the surface of red sludge pits) is proposed.
