Mercury as such means a danger for the environment and the human beings, but the contemporary life of the civilized man without utilization of this metal element would be hardly imaginable. It is shown that mercury has occupied a significant position in the industry (in mining, as an inevitable component of electrolyzers, batteries, and various lightning devices), in medicine (as amalgams in dintistry or some special medicaments), as well as in physical and chemical laboratories (thermometer and barometers, or as traditional electrodes for polarography and voltammetry).
