Abstract
Currently, as the development of the Arctic became more active additional protection of the territory is demanded. The garrisons requiring the modem life support infrastructure for military contingents are being created in severe climatic conditions of the Polar region. One of the important factors and living conditions is water-supply of garrisons. At the same time the drinking water produced from melted snow can’t be considered valuable as it virtually doesn’t contain salts, is low-mineralized and, at the same time, can have a high level of man-made contamination. It is a common feeling generally recognized that drinking such water causes imbalance of water-salt metabolism in the organism, and leads to the increase in the incidence of cardiovascular pathology. Consequently, melt-water must be cleared, mineralized, that is to saturate with the salts, preferably to the level of the physiological usefulness, as required by current Federal sanitary legislation of Russia. The urgency of the problem of conditioning of melt water in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation is not in doubt.
