HYDROGEOLOGICAL JUSTIFICATION OF UTILIZATION OF DRAINAGE, STORM WATER, DOMESTIC AND INDUSTRIAL EFFLUENTS OF URBAN AGGLOMERATIONS

Abstract

The paper highlights the problems associated with the processes of flooding of urban areas due to the insufficient functioning of drainage and storm water systems. The conclusion about the impracticability of the arrangement of drainage and storm water systems due to their material and financial capacity is justified, since such systems create environmental problems. For the disposal of ground, storm, and domestic and industrial wastewater, a comprehensive system of injection, beam, and fan facilities is recommended. The stages of preparation, design and implementation of such systems are proposed. Flooding of the city of Astrakhan leads to the rise of groundwater to the surface of the urban area, salinization of soils and the expansion of salt marshes, the death of green spaces, flooding of basements and houses in low-lying areas. Inevitably, the development of salt corrosion of foundations and walls, followed by the destruction of buildings. In these processes of "unity and struggle of opposites "(the relationship "man-water"), a person loses in his struggle for progress and comfort with insufficient (or inept) interaction with the environment (including natural underground and surface waters). The existing drainage system of the city is practically not functioning. The actual absence of a drainage system is practically confirmed by the next rains.
