THE STUDY OF INFLUENCE OF DUMPS ON ECOSYSTEM AND POPULATION HEALTH ON THE EXAMPLE OF SHW -5, CITY KYIV

Abstract

In this work were analyzed the causes of modern state of accumulation of the dangerous household wastes throughout the world and in Ukraine that is the global problem of mankind for today. It concerns especially the developing countries with essentially lower level of life and where the old technologies are used. The state and influence on environment on the example of SHW-5, situated near the city Kyiv were studied. The questionnaire was carried out among the local population at the different distances from the dump, including the influence on health, soils, water resources, air and other. It was revealed, that dumps negatively influence the ecosystem at more distance than it is fixed in regulatory acts. The speeds of accumulation of solid wastes at SHW-5 were assessed. The modern technologies, based on the use of mapping and satellite data, for receiving information as to the influence of dumps on the surrounding settlements and local population health were studied. The conclusions about the decrease of prices of land near the dump and irrational use of land resources were done. As a result of calculations the area of influence of dump and radius of distribution of the negative effects on population and ecosystem in whole were received. The modern technologies as to utilization of wastes in the world were studied and the wanted scenario of solving the problem by sorting wastes and their further processing for the secondary use was chosen. The recommendations as to decrease of influence of dumps on ecosystem by building of garbage-recycling plants using recycling system were given.
