Abstract

Current ecological state assessment of the water body located on the Volga-Akhtuba floodplain territory (Dudachenok shallow channel) after its environmental rehabilitation was carried out. It was found that almost all the studied indicators correspond to the approved quality standards with the exception of strontium – 4.5 mg/l (MPC – 0.4 mg/l (Order No. 552 dated December 13, 2016), MPC – 7 .0 mg/l (SanPiN 1.2.3685-21 No. 2 dated January 28, 2021)) and barium – 1.25 mg/l (MPC– 0.74 mg/l (Order No. 552 dated December 13, 2016), MPC – 0.7 mg/l (SanPiN 1.2.3685-21 No. 2 dated January 28, 2021)). It is concluded that it is possible to assign a hydrocarbonate class (predominant anion), calcium group (predominant cation) and second type to a water body. A study of bottom sediments revealed that chloride (36 mg/kg) is one of the predominant anions, calcium (27 mg/kg) and sodium (27 mg/kg) are the predominant cations, which agrees with the obtained water chemical composition data. Chemical and toxicological parameters of bottom sediments were analyzed. It was determined that the quantitative content of metals and pesticides does not exceed the maximum permissible concentrations.
