Methodology of Environmental Standardization for Natural Waters

The errors caused by the non-representativeness of the sample data arrays when they are directly combined are analyzed. Using examples of water quality analysis and the quality of metrological support for production processes, it is shown that even if desirable changes in controlled dependencies are observed in different data groups, changes may still be undesirable when combining these groups. It is shown that the correct unification, preserving the direction of functional dependencies, provides for the introduction of weighting coefficients in such a way that the weighted proportion of the studied ratios in the combined data arrays is the same.

The issues of determining the quality of wastewater are relevant for various countries within the framework of environmental regulation. The methods used for calculating the quality standards of wastewater discharged into reservoirs have different degrees of justification and, thus, can cause systemic errors in the analysis of the quality of treated wastewater. Another reason for possible inconsistencies is errors in the unrepresentativeness of analytical studies and sampling procedures. Based on the fact that average values, including annual averages, are used to determine the acceptable quality of wastewater treatment, this article shows options for negative impacts on water bodies from various objects, taking into account the real contribution to the volume of such negative impacts.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
