Paper Title
Assessment of Management Tools for Sustainable Development of a Megacity on the Example of Environmental Monitoring of Sewage Treatment Facilities
Abstract
In Moscow, one of the largest cities in Russia, it is extremely important and necessary to improve the technology
of wastewater treatment. The capital has two major water treatment plants: Kuryanovskiy and Lyuberetskiy sewage
treatment facilities (STFK, STFL), which are among the largest in Europe, taking about three million cubic meters of sewage
per day. In modern conditions, when the area for development inside the boundaries of large cities continue to use up, the
problem of odors from sewage treatment plants and sewage pumping stations, takes urban significance. The paper compares
different methods of calculation to determine the list of regulated pollutants: pollutants emission rate in the air depends on
their content in the waste water, area of the open water surface, wind speed, flow rate of aerating air. Therefore, state owned
organization “Mosvodokanal” pays great attention to reducing emissions of substances that have an unpleasant odor. .With
that, for the first time in domestic and foreign practice, the STFK settling tanks utilized the original engineering development
of floating gully covers on open water surfaces. In total, 123.2 thousand square meters of open water surfaces were
overlapped. Monitoring of these problems is the most important mechanism, which in many respects influences the speed of
adoption of administrative and control decisions.
