Organic Impurities in the Natural Water of the Tom River Basin
It is shown by means of gas chromatography - mass spectrometry and IR spectrometry that the formation of the composition of organic impurities in the water system of the Tom river basin occurs under the influence of natural and anthropogenic factors. The precedence of the latter is evidenced by the prevalence of the organic impurities originating from oil in the river region under investigation (paraffins, isoparaffins, naphthenes, aromatic hydrocarbons); other pollutants of anthropogenic origin are also present (phthalates, carboxylic acids and their esters, phosphates). The qualitative and quantitative composition of organic pollutants disposed into the river from each industrial zone is investigated.
