Abstract:As a result of studies it was found that the peloids of the deposit of Tuzkol Lake (Republic of Kazakhstan) are high quality medium-sulfide, weakly alkaline sludge muds. It was found that peloid-derived humic acid contains 49.63 % oxygen, 22.37% carbon, 9.65 % silicon and 6.26% calcium; it also contains Na, Mg, Al, Fe and an insignificant amount of S, Cl, K, F. Electron microscopy and IR spectroscopy analysis of the molecular structure of humic substances of peloids indicated that their macromolecule consists … Show more
