Abstract
The chapter presents the results of monitoring studies on the parameters of the quality of underground waters which are the source of water supply for settlements in the northern- western regions of Ukraine. The tendency is revealed concerning their progressing worsening under the impact of the anthropogenic factor by such parameters: the degree of aggressiveness, the content of compounds of iron, manganese, ammonia nitrogen, and in some settlements – of phenols. The analysis was carried out and the low efficiency was pointed out of the operation of traditional technologies on the basis of the method “simplified aeration – filtration”. Based on researches conducted a physical model was developed and mechanisms of the comprehensive treatment of underground waters on matrix structures of bio-minerals in inter-pore space of the contact loading of the bioreactor. The technologies were developed, studied and put into practice for the comprehensive water preparation on the basis of combined methods of treatment.
