ATMOSPHERIC SUSPENSION OF THE TOWN BELOGORSK (THE AMUR REGION)

Abstract

The article is devoted to the research of atmospheric suspensions of Belogorsk town (the Amur region) by means of laser granulometry. It is shown that the volume fraction of ecologically significant microparticles (less than 10 microns) in the air of Belogorsk is from 19.8 to 39.9%, and particles from 10 to 50 microns make from 39.8 to 75.4%. These data are assessed as unfavorable background for the development of respiratory diseases. The part of the largest particles (from 400 microns and above) doesn't exceed 16.5%. The conclusion is drawn that on the territory of the small town without large sources of dusting there are a lot of particles in the atmospheric suspension potentially hazardous to the health of a person. The town with the population about 70000 people is the territory with broad fluctuations of particles distribution in the atmospheric suspension.
