Bicarbonate waters in hydrogeological complexes of the hypergenesis zone of the Southern Cis-Urals

Abstract

The article deals with the formation and distribution of bicarbonate groundwater in the hydrogeological complexes of the hypergenesis zone of the Southern Cis-Urals. Particular attention is paid to the issues of the distribution of bicarbonate groundwater in the hydrogeological section, which are of the greatest practical importance for the purposes of drinking water supply in the region. On the basis of long-term complex field and experimental studies, it has been established that the formation of the chemical composition and distribution of these waters in hydrogeological complexes is subject to the laws of vertical hydrogeodynamic and gas-hydrochemical zonality. The influence of technogenesis on the qualitative composition of these waters is noted.
