Abstract

The article discusses the importance of ensuring chemical safety when using selenium compounds in the implementation of environmental safety in the framework of ensuring a general safety culture. The analysis of literary sources for an extensive period of time is carried out. The field of application of selenium in industry and its main properties are indicated. Information about the danger of selenium for human physiology and the consequences of selenium poisoning is given. The issues related to the analysis of selenium content in waters, soil and atmosphere are considered as elements of environmental monitoring. It is noted that in most cases analysts are dealing with very low selenium concentrations. It is indicated that various valence forms of selenium have different toxicities, and therefore it is proposed to use methods for determining the MPC level of selenium in one form or another in a given analyzed medium. Analyzed electrochemical methods for the determination of selenium and some organoselenium substances in natural objects. The features of anodic stripping voltammetry on a gold-graphite electrode as the most promising method for detecting selenium are considered. It was revealed that ensuring chemical safety in the framework of digitalization and the implementation of the concept of a culture of safety in transport is an important task.
