INNOVATIVE BASIS OF THE USE OF BIOINDICATION METHOD DURING MANMADE EMERGENCIES

Abstract

The article deals with the method of bioindication, which was used earlier in the course of ecological expertise in order to determine the ecological load on the components of the biosphere (soil, water environment, air), determining of the general level of pollution was done and the clarification of the pollution zones was carried out in order to determine the ecological load on the components of the biosphere. In situations where chemical pollution occurs, units of the State Emergency Service (SES) continue to perform their duties: extinguishing fires, participating in the elimination of the consequences of an emergency. The extent to which the SES units are prepared for their tasks in a complex, chemically dangerous environment affects the effectiveness of the activities, life and health of the personnel of the SES units, as well as the civilian population, the period during which the consequences of the emergency will be eliminated. But in order to efficiently carry out protection against dangerous factors, the operating hazardous factor must be correctly and quickly identified. The accuracy of the means and tactics of protection depends on this. New dangerous substances appear, there is a high probability of using poisonous substances during terrorist acts. Very often a person suffers from a lack of knowledge, and during the emergencies the number of dangerous factors increases. The most important task of the personnel working in extreme situations, and above all, the specialists of the civil protection service, is to timely recognize and fix the danger. Today the problem of man-made emergencies has become global in its scope, affecting not only national but also international interests. In view of the significant increase in the number of catastrophic events in the last two decades in comparison with previous periods of human history, the relevance of this problem is not in doubt. This situation forces us to constantly search for new, more advanced methods of ensuring the protection of the personnel and civilian population in the state. We upgraded this method of environmental bioindication to determine the extent of pollution and types of contaminating factors to prevent dangerous effects on humans. Creation of a method for controlling the dangerous state of the environment without the use of technical means of control, as well as an objective assessment of the situation in the area of exposure of chemically hazardous substances and ionizing radiation, presents scientific novelty and, equally important, practical significance.
