Krasnodar GRES Project Volume I11 Environmental Assessment

Special hydrological systems record deviations of water qualitative
parameters. These systems respond both to biological processes (for
instance algae propagation) and physico-chemical processes in a water
body.
The following table presents the methods used for hydrological
measurements.

Indices and Methods of Hydrological Measurements
The Krasnodar GRES data processing center will process and store all the
measured parameters and reports from the measuring stations. The data
will be downloaded from the stations automatically at certain intervals. In
addition, the data can also be downloaded manually. When the values
exceed certain limits, the measuring station sends this information to the
data processing center, which retrieves data from the stations and
responds.
Potential Air Pollution Sources:
Method
Reference gas analysis (three-electrode system)
Differential temperature compensation method
Electric solution resistance measurements
Photometric two-beam method
- daphnia test
- fish test
- algae development
- bacterial toxicometry
- determination of acute toxicity to mussels
Accumulation of organic pollutants
Thermometric
main stack (NOx, Son, CO, solid particles). Monitoring is carried out
automatically by using a system of detectors; the information is of an
operative nature and can be integrated for determining annual gross
emissions. Input signals are recorded every 5 seconds. Average
values are formed from the recorded data for 3 and 30 minutes as
well as for 24 hours, which are then turned over to the archives. The
recorded data on emissions are kept for 5 years in compliance with
the regulations.
