The article discusses one of the waste management areas – the use of fertilizer properties of chemical compounds that make up various types of production waste. The salt aluminum slag of the Mtsensk metallurgical plant AOOT Non-ferrous Metals and Alloys was chosen as the object of pollution. The presented studies indicate that the presence of macro-and microelements in the composition of slag fertilizers significantly increases the value of these fertilizers and partially solves the problem of complex application of the necessary elements into the soil [10]. The effectiveness was evaluated of the fertilizing properties of the salt screenings of aluminum slag, vermicompost and zeolites when using them as a part of nutrient soils for growing cucumber [8]. An increase in the toxic load for the analyzed period was established [7]. Also, all the studied forms and types of fertilizer nutritional compounds have a physiological effect, increase the growth and development of cucumber plants, product quality, and contribute to plant resistance to adverse environmental conditions and to the production of environmentally friendly products [13]. The effectiveness has been proved of the method of using plant cell juice electrical conductivity to assess the physiological state at different growth phases as a reaction to the fertilizer levels of production waste and natural minerals [9].
