The authors investigate and analyze the dispersion composition of dust particles on the leaves of apricot trees (Prúnus armeníaca) in the residential area of the Sredneakhtubinsky district of the Volgograd region near industrial enterprises in comparison with the dispersed composition of dust on the leaves of apricot trees (Prúnus armeníaca) growing on the territory in a conditionally clean zone (control) in the absence of anthropogenic pressure from industrial complexes in the SNT “Oroshenets” (Volgograd, Sovetsky district). The research points in the residential area were taken on the territory of social facilities (boarding school, hospital, kindergarten) and low-rise residential areas. The research material is the leaves of apricot trees (Prúnus armeníaca) in the residential area of the Sredneakhtubinsky district of the Volgograd region and in the SNT Oroshenets, Volgograd, Sovetsky district (conditionally clean zone, (control). Research methods: washing off dust from leaf blades into a glass with distilled water, filtering the suspension through an AFA-VP filter, obtaining a filtrate, natural drying of the filtrate at a temperature not higher than 30-40 ° C, placing the dried filtrate on a glass slide of an optical microscope, making measurements of dust particles, dust processing, study of the dispersed composition of dust (according to GOST R 56929-2016). Areas of environmental risk have been identified, these are the territories of a kindergarten, a hospital and other low-rise residential buildings, as well as places that are safe for the population (boarding school, etc.). These studies indicate environmental pollution, in the future, it is required to determine the chemical composition of dust particles and identify sources of pollution and take environmental measures.
