title: [Mercury technogenic pollution of the environment--a priority ecological hygiene problem (a review of the literature)].
abstract: The authors analyze distribution of mercury in the contaminated zone depending on the chemical formula of mercury and routes of entry, enumerate the norm rating and indices to be used in ecologo-hygienic evaluation of the hazards degrees of the actual level of mercury in the water, atmospheric air and soil, describe numerous sources of technical solutions of reducing mercury entry to environment from technogenous sources. Modern achievements of science and technology make it possible to exclude entry of mercury and its compounds into the environment.
