“…In Polish production plants The quality of groundwater indicates its contact with wastewater discharged to the sedimentary ponds. The reason of this may be the leaky bottom of the pond, which means that the leachate created by infiltrating rainfall, penetrating through its subsoil and escarpments, becomes a source of a long-term soil and groundwater pollution [1,2,5]. However, due to the cessation of wastewater discharge to pond 8 and leaching of pollution by infiltrating rainwater [41,42], the content of chloride ions in groundwater is reduced compared to the 1980s.…”

“…The turn of the 19th and 20th centuries was synonymous with the rapid development of industry, which often led to major changes in all elements of the natural environment (soils, groundwater, surface water, air, plants, animals) [1][2][3][4]. A great example of this is the chemical industry related to the production of soda ash-formerly by the Leblanc method, now by the Solvay method.…”

The aim of the work was to determine whether the waste accumulated on the reclaimed sedimentary pond near the Janikosoda Production Plant in Janikowo is still a source of pollution of groundwater. On one of the ponds near the Production Plant in Janikowo, three points were located, in which drilling was done up to the bottom of the layer of solid waste. In each point, samples of sediments were taken to determine electrolytic conductivity and chloride concentration. In order to examine the level of groundwater pollution in the area of the Production Plant, four points around the sedimentary ponds were identified, in which regular monitoring of chloride ions has been carried out since the 1980s. Based on analysis, it was concluded that chlorides are leached from the sediments deep into the soil profile by rainwater and, with high probability, also by water seeping from the adjacent slag pond. Sedimentary ponds are still an important source of pollution released into soils and groundwater around the plant. Nevertheless, chloride concentration in solid waste and groundwater in the area of sedimentary ponds has decreased in the last 20 years.

“…Incorrect location and operation of landfills adversely affects all elements of the natural environment (air, plants, groundwater and surface waters, soils). The unsealed bottom of the landfill causes the leachates produced by infiltrating rainwater to penetrate through its subsoil and slopes, becoming a source of long-term pollution of soils and groundwater [Urbańska andUrbański 2012, Wiater 2011]. These leachates affect the receivers in a variety of ways.…”

The "Soda Mątwy" plant in Inowrocław produces light and heavy soda ash by means of the Solvay method, and the production process is associated with the formation of highly saline waste, which can adversely affect all elements of the environment. In view of the existing threats, attempts are undertaken to limit the quantity and improve the quality of post-production sewage. The aim of the study is to determine the effectiveness of activities to protect the water in the area of the soda production plant in Inowrocław. The assessment of their effectiveness was based on the analysis of the current level of chloride concentration reduction at 4 measurement points around the plant and determination of the trend for further changes. In all piezometers, the concentration of chloride ions has decreased and showed the same tendency in subsequent years, which allows draw conclusions confirming high effectiveness of the activities related to water protection.

“…This aims, among others, at preventing and reducing the source of sewage and solid waste, as well as to save water, energy and other natural resources during production processes. Elimination of toxic and raw materials from production processes plays a crucial role as an important stage of preventing them from entering the water resources [1][2][3][4][5][6] .…”

the soda ash industry is a part of the chemical industry, which is responsible for the production of sodium carbonate, calcium chloride, absorbent masses, evaporated wet salt, food salt, pickling salt or salt tablets. During manufacturing of those products, strongly alkaline wastewater is generated. it could be characterised by a high electrolytic conductivity and concentration of ions: chlorides, sulfates, phosphates, calcium, sodium, magnesium, potassium and ammonium. the aim of the research was to test the effectiveness of removing sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium and ammonium from wastewater after production of soda ash by three sorbents: Halosorb, compakt and Damsorb K. The process was carried out using dynamic method with different flow of wastewater through the column with sorbent. it allowed to reduce concentrations of all cations tested. Moreover, it was found that sorbent type did not significantly affect the removal of any of the ions, but the deposit load had significant impact on the removal of all ions tested.
