[Efficiency of sanitary measures in oil-producing areas].
The paper presents the results of an analysis of the efficiency of sanitary and environment-protective measures relating the ambient atmosphere in the oil-producing areas of the Republic of Tatarstan. It characterizes the environment-protective activity of the PJSC "Tatneft", gives a sanitary evaluation of the quality of the ambient air in the oil-producing areas. It has been ascertained that the improvement of manufacturing technology and the construction of gas and dust catching units on the oil-producing facilities reduce atmospheric pollutant emissions. The levels of hydrocarbons, nitric oxide, and hydrogen sulfide have been substantially decreased. At present, the influence of oil-producing facilities on the quality of the ambient air is 17-19%; the main source of atmospheric pollution is motor transport (its influence on atmospheric pollution is 40-56%). At present versus 1989-1995, the degree of pollution and the mutagenic potential of the ambient air are reduced, which suggests the efficiency of sanitary and environment-protective measures implemented by the PJSC "Tatneft".
