Abstract
Bioplateau creation researches at Kirovogorsky sediment pond of AO "OLKON" (Olenegorsk, Murmansk Region) have been carried out for the purpose of decrease in water of mineral nitrogen compounds ingressive into the pond with waste quarry waters as a result of explosive works with the use of nitrogen compounds. The assortment of indigenous plants has been selected; the method of their fixing and cultivation on the water surface is developed; and observation of their vegetation is carried out. In the conditions of laboratory and full-scale experiments, the dynamics of decreasing the mineral forms of nitrogen compounds is found. The necessary area of the pond bioplateau coating for decrease of the mineral nitrogen compounds is calculated. Application of the floating bioplateaus promoted decrease in water of the sediment pond of the contents of ammonium and nitrite nitrogen to values of maximum concentration limit and lower. The trend of nitric nitrogen concentration decrease is marked as well. The developed process can be applied in any climatic zone with characteristic to the locality assortment of plant-improvers.
