On materials of the past few years of observations we can conclude a stable chemical composition of the effluent plant. On admission to the Lake Baikal is a multiple of dilution, so the chemical composition of water in the pelagic zone (zone of the lake water mass is not located in close proximity from the bottom) of the Southern Baikal remains unchanged for a long time.
Implemented at JSC "Baikal Pulp and Paper Mill," a unique system of treatment plants to reduce the content of pollutants to a minimum.
