Substantiation of natural and technogenic peculiarities of geo-ecological risks occurrence in the areas of alpha-olefins production units
Basing on the available knowledge of the material, the paper deals with the study of evolution of hazardous geological processes in the areas of exploitation of the alpha-olefins units; and the measures for engineering-geological zoning, as well as the forecast of potential hazards are discussed. Besides the eventual influence of engineering works upon the environment is analyzed, and the principles of adequate environmental control are proposed in the paper. It is determined that the stability of the soil at the site depends on the strength of earthquakes, the relationship to the front of the seismic wave, ground state (thawed or frozen ground, their ice content, moisture, flow, viscosity) and in precipitation (quantity, shower, steady rain, etc.). The obtained results give an idea of ​​the current state of exodynamical processes and allow to predict changes of the geological environment in the construction of engineering facilities and their possible impact on the environment.
