Parâmetros termodinâmicos da casca de laranja desidratada

The global energy scenario is currently a widely discussed topic, with growing concern about the future supplies. Thus, much attention has been dedicated to the utilization of biomass as an energy resource. In this respect, orange peel has become a material of great interest, especially to Brazil, which generates around 9.5 million tons of this waste per year. To this end, the authors studied the kinetics of the thermal processing of dried orange peel in inert and oxidizing atmosphere. The thermodynamic parameters were determined by the Ozawa-Flynn-Wall method for the global process observed during heating from the 25 degrees C up to 800 degrees C. The thermal analysis in air and nitrogen showed 3-2 stages of mass loss, respectively, with approximately 20% residual mass under a nitrogen atmosphere. The increase in the values of activation energy for the conversion points between 20% and 60% for thermal effects in air and nitrogen atmosphere was observed. The activation energy obtained in an oxidizing atmosphere was higher than that obtained under a nitrogen atmosphere. The fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the material has a high level of complexity with the presence of alkali and alkaline earth groups as well as phosphate, plus substances such as pectin, cellulose and lignin.

Preparation and thermal decomposition of solid state cobalt, nickel, copper and zinc chelates of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid

Solid state chelates of general formula H-2[M(EDTA)] . nH2O, where M is Co, Ni, Cu or Zn, and EDTA is ethylenediaminetetraacetate, were prepared. Thermogravimetry-derivative thermogravimetry (TG-DTG), differential thermal analysis (DTA) and complexometry were used to characterize and to study the thermal stability and thermal decomposition of these compounds.

Thermal decomposition of the hydrated basic carbonates of lanthanides and yttrium

Thermogravimetry, differential thermal analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, IR absorption spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and other methods of analysis have been used in the characterization and study of the thermal decomposition of the basic carbonate hydrates of lanthanides and yttrium. These compounds were obtained by precipitation from homogeneous solutions via the hydrolysis of urea, without the addition of an auxiliary anion. The results show that the TG and DTA curves are characteristic for each compound. The results also permit suggestions concerning the compositions and mechanisms of thermal decomposition of these compounds. © 1989.
