Abstract

Results of the analysis of chemical composition and evaluation of the quality of bog water at the territory of the river basin within the southern taiga subzone of West Siberia are presented. It was stressed that the features of the composition of bog water, from the viewpoint of the accepted maximum permissible concentrations, allow one to characterize the water as undoubtedly polluted. However, the observed high concentrations of some components are caused first of all by natural processes that take place in peat bed but not by industry-related pollution.
