The corporate world is increasingly competitive, and companies need to go deep into the routines and work them in order to understand them fully. The market is demanding more than simple improvements that bring advances - of small or great expression; however, in a longer term it will no longer meet the ideology of the market. Companies aimed at the world class must focus on projects that will continually bring returns to the company. As previously mentioned, understanding the processes in minute details is of paramount importance, as this knowledge can be acquired by analyzing the decisions that are necessary during the process. Once the complexity increases, the quantity and difficulty of the criteria that influence them grow accordingly. At this time, methods and tools that assist decisionmaking processes can be used as, besides being able to provide the best decision methods of MCDA (Multiple Criteria Decision Aid), they provide clear and assertive understanding of the whole decision process. In developing this study, we sought to explore the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method (a MCDA method) in the choice of access service, featured by the support service used to reach and be the basis of repairs in places of difficult access. This work proposes a study of the quantitative modeling approach in a real routine activity for a Brazilian petrochemical company. Decision-making processes are explored when we seek to analyze not only the decision makers but also what directly influences them on the use of the AIJ method. Once this is achieved, the understanding of decision-making is substantiated

This study investigated the main methods of separation of components of lignocellulosic biomass, with an emphasis on obtaining lignin and its application. The work was developed based on the concept of Biorefinery proposing full use of renewable raw materials and / or the use of lignocellulosic agricultural residues by biochemical or biotechnological conversion in obtaining high value added products with minimal environmental impact. From this premise, a literature review was performed in refereed journal articles and theses in order to gather enough material for critical analysis of usual and alternative methods in the literature. When researching methods that add value to lignin, it was found that with the technology found today, the cost required to have a degree of competitiveness is still too high, preventing much of the process. However, the isolated lignin can be used as raw material in the production of numerous types of biocomposites and polymers and other products such as phenols, benzene, dispersants, vanillin, emulsifying agents, antioxidants, pesticides, fertilizers, charcoal, concrete additives, among others. As an industrial production level is necessary, because the consumption of biomass will only grow over the years, it is necessary that new methods or technologies to be created in order to facilitate the extensive use of lignocellulosic biomass

É bem conhecido que uma das consequências causada pela radiação ultravioleta gerada pela luz solar é o fotoenvelhecimento e o desenvolvimento de cânceres cutâneos por meio da ação dos radicais livres gerados sobre a pele. A utilização de uma formulação de uso tópico pela população que auxilie na prevenção do envelhecimento precoce e de doenças causadas pelos radicais livres à pele humana seria de grande valia, trazendo benefícios estéticos, que influenciariam diretamente a saúde psicológica do usuário e preveniriam a fotocarcinogênese. Este fato se torna ainda mais importante em um país tropical como o Brasil, onde a incidência de radiação UV é bastante elevada, assim como o desenvolvimento de cânceres de pele na população. Devido às evidências encontradas em estudos prévios que indicam o potencial antioxidante da goiaba, esta pesquisa teve por objetivo desenvolver estudos para avaliação da segurança in vitro e in vivo de fitocosmético antioxidante através da avaliação do potencial mutagênico em cepas de Salmonella typhimurium, além de avaliar seu potencial irritativo e alergênico na pele de voluntários saudáveis. Para isto foi utilizado o método de Ames, amplamente utilizado para esta finalidade, em que o extrato de Psidium guajava L. foi considerado não mutagênico para todas as cepas avaliadas e foi possível constatar que o extrato promoveu efeito antimutagênico moderado apenas na cepa TA 100. No ensaio para avaliação do potencial irritativo e alergênico realizado in vivo, foi comprovada a ausência de potencial irritante e alergênico de fitocosmético. Desta forma, os estudos realizados indicam a segurança em utilizar o extrato de Psidium guajava L. como antioxidante de uso tópico.

Considering the high competitivity in the market, the application of quantitative methods can assist in analyzing the efficiency of production facilities of areas of export and import processes of the chemical industry sector. In this sense, this work aims to apply the model GPDEA-BCC optimization in order to develop an analysis of the production units of this chemical industry. So, were chosen variables relevant to the process and elaborated a final comparison between the results obtained by the optimization tool and performance indexes provided by the company. These results indicated that some production units should be monitored more carefully because some of them had a low efficiency when analyzed with multi criteria
