Abstract
Based on the environmental monitoring materials of Joint-stock company “Sibir-Polimetally”, as well as Altai State Technical University scientific research, an analysis was made of the ecological state of the surface waters of small streams in the south-west of the Altai territory: the Nikitikha, Krutishka and Korbolikha rivers. The main pollutants in these water bodies are identified. The research results are relevant for the Altai territory, where small watercourses in the area where industrial enterprises are located can be a source of pollution of large waterways, which are of great economic importance for the Siberian region.
Highlights
The Nikitikha, Krutishka and Korbolikha rivers flow in the south-west of the Altai Territory (Russia)
Krutishka flows into the Korbolikha river, the latter together with the Nikitikha river, are the tributaries of the Alei River, which, in turn, flows into the Ob River (Fig. 1)
The main source of possible pollution of the Nikitikha river is Rubtsovsk Metall Processing Plant based in the Rubtsovsk district of Altai Krai
Summary
The Nikitikha, Krutishka and Korbolikha rivers flow in the south-west of the Altai Territory (Russia). The main source of possible pollution of the Nikitikha river is Rubtsovsk Metall Processing Plant based in the Rubtsovsk district of Altai Krai.
