Abstract

The volumes of groundwater pollution in the zone of technogenic impact were calculated. A hydrochemical anomaly formed because of the penetration of industrial liquid wastes into the environment. The infiltrates reach groundwater table, mix with this water, and propagate with its flow. The anomaly shows a relatively high total water TDS. In the mixing zone of technogenic and natural waters, the concentrations of salts decrease because of dilution. Software packages ArcGIS and Micromine were used to construct a three-dimensional model of the technogenic anomaly. The database for model construction contains some monitoring data on wells in the location area of waste settling basins. Long-term observations of groundwater level for each well were used in the study. The lithological features of the area were also taken into account. The model can be used to estimate the total pollution volume and the changes in the volume over time and to determine the contours and the least polluted areas.
