In this work the degradation capacity of a photo-electrocatalytic system was evaluated, mainly regarding the effect of the electrolyte solution on the degradation capacity toward a reactive textile dye. In the presence of NaCl the photo-electrochemical process shows high degradation efficiency, permitting almost total color removal in treatment of about 5 min. In view of the low degradation efficiency observed for the photocatalytic process it is possible to assume that the high degradation efficiency of the process is a function of electrochemical generation of oxidant active chlorine species, which are subsequently transformed to higher oxidant radical forms.

O comportamento físico e hídrico do solo fundamenta as práticas de seu uso e manejo. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar as inter-relações entre as propriedades físicas e os coeficientes da curva de retenção de água de um Latossolo Vermelho distrófico sob diferentes sistemas de uso. Em 2004, foram selecionadas três áreas contíguas utilizadas por mais de vinte anos com mata (nativa), pousio (Brachiaria decumbens) e cultivo (culturas anuais). Foram coletadas 25 amostras de solo com estrutura não deformada na camada de 0-0,15 m de profundidade, que foram utilizadas para determinação das curvas de retenção de água do solo. As curvas de retenção de água foram ajustadas pela equação de van Genuchten, obtendo-se os coeficientes qs, qr, a e n. Também foram mensuradas as variáveis densidade do solo, teor de C orgânico e teor de argila do solo (grupo I). Essas variáveis e os coeficientes das curvas de retenção do solo (grupo II) foram submetidos às análises de correlações canônicas. Verificou-se que a intensificação do uso do solo (mata, pousio e cultivo) resultou em maiores valores de densidade do solo e na redução dos teores de C orgânico e argila. O primeiro par das variáveis canônicas indicou dependência de qs em relação a densidade, e o segundo par distinguiu os sistemas de uso do solo verificado pela dependência de qr em relação aos teores de argila e de C orgânico. As modificações dos teores de C orgânico e da densidade do solo sugerem a degradação da qualidade física e hídrica do solo.

The processes and sources that regulate the elemental composition of aerosol particles were investigated in both fine and coarse modes during the dry and wet seasons. One hundred and nine samples were collected from the biological reserve Cuieiras - Manaus from February to October 2008, and analyzed together with 668 samples that were previously collected at Balbina from 1998 to 2002. Particle induced X-ray emission technique was used to determine the elemental composition, while the concentration of black carbon was obtained from the measurement of optical reflectance. Absolute principal factor analysis and positive matrix factorization were performed for source apportionment, which was complemented with back trajectory analysis. A regional identity for the natural biogenic aerosol was found for the Central Amazon Basin and can be used in dynamical chemical region models.

Plug dynamics of non compensate drip tubes were evaluated, by the precipitation of moisturized whitewash [Ca(OH)2], which is used in the fertigation for the bulb pH control of the trademarks Azud, Amanco, Naandan, Netafim, Petroisa, Queen Gil, with flow rate varying between 0.4 to 3.0 L h-1 usually used in the country. For this matter, increasing doses of Ca(OH)² were applied in the irrigation water, from 0.01 g L-1 to 1.84 g L-1. The flow rate of each drip tube was measured in intervals of time initially of 7 days, later of 15 days of system operation, totaling a time of 100 days of operation, corresponding to nine applications or 432 hours. The coefficient of variation (CV), and relative rate flow (Qr) were evaluated. The results pointed differences among the evaluated emitter regarding the occurrence of the clogging, and the models G2 and G5 presented the smallest levels of flow rate variation comparing to the models G6, G7 and G9.
