This work presents the incorporation of an industrial polymeric waste into a petroleum asphalt cement with penetration grade 50-60 (CAP 50-60). The main goal of this research is the development of a polymer-modified asphalt, with improvements in its physical properties, in order to obtain a more resistant material to the traffic loads. Furthermore, the use of this polymeric waste will result in economic and environmental benefits. The CAP 50-60 used in this research was kindly supplied by LUBNOR Lubrificantes e Derivados de Petróleo do Nordeste (produced in Fazenda Belém Aracati - Ceará) and the industrial polymeric waste was provided by a button manufacturer industry, located in Rio Grande do Norte state. This polymeric waste represents an environmental problem due to its difficulty in recycling and disposal, being necessary the payment by the industry to a landfill. The difficulty in its reuse is for being this material a termofixed polymer, as a result, the button chips resulting from the molding process cannot be employed for the same purpose. The first step in this research was the characterization of the polymeric waste, using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) Infrared spectroscopy (IR spectroscopy), and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Based on the results, the material was classified as unsaturated polyester. After, laboratory experiments were accomplished seeking to incorporate the polymeric waste into the asphalt binder according to a 23 experimental factorial design, using as main factors: the polymer content (2%, 7% and 14%), the temperature of the mixture (140 and 180 oC) and the reaction time (20 and 60 minutes). The characterization of the polymer-modified asphalt was accomplished by traditional tests, such as: penetration, ring and ball softening point, viscosity, ductility and flash point temperature. The obtained results demonstrated that the addition of the polymeric waste into the asphalt binder modified some of its physical properties. However, this addition can be considered as a feasible alternative for the use of the polymeric waste, which is a serious environmental and technological problem.

In this research, the drying process of acerola waste was investigated by using a spouted bed drier. The process was conducted using high density polyethylene inert particles with the objective of producing an ascorbic acid-rich final product. The fruit waste was ground and used to prepare different water-maltodextrin suspensions. Initially, fluidynamical experiments were conducted in order to evaluate the feeding effect on the spouted bed drier fluidynamics behavior. The experimental planning 23 + 3 was used to investigate the effect of the following variables: solids concentration, drying air temperature, intermittence time, production efficiency, solids retention and product losses by elutriation of fine particles on drier walls. The effect of selected independent variables on the drier stability was also evaluated based on a parameter defined as the ratio between the feed suspension volume and the total inert particles volume. Finally, the powder quality was verified in experiments with fixed feed flow and varying air drying temperature, drying air velocity and intermittence time. It was observed that the suspension interferes in the spouted bed drier fluidynamics behavior, and higher air flow is necessary to stabilize the drier. The suspension also promotes the expansion of the spouted bed diameter, decreases the solid circulation and favors the air distribution at the flush area. All variables interfere in the spouted bed performance, and the solids concentration has a major effect on the material retention and losses. The intermittence time also has great effect on the stability and material retention. When it comes to production efficiency, the main effect observed was the drying air temperature. First order models were well adjusted to retention and losses data. The acerola powder presented ascorbic acid levels around 600 to 700 mg/100g. Similar moisture and ascorbic acid levels were obtained for powders obtained by spouted bed and spray drier. However, the powder production efficiency of the spray drier was lower when compared to spouted bed drier. When it comes to energetic analysis, the spray drier process was superior. The results obtained for spouted bed drier are promising and highly dependent on the operational parameters chosen, but in general, it is inferred that this drying process is adequate for paste and suspension drying

A aplicação de isolantes térmicos em sistemas construtivos promove vantagens com vistas ao conforto térmico de ambientes. E com isso, o aumento da produtividade em locais de trabalho, a sensação de bem-estar e a diminuição dos custos com climatização. A demanda por conforto ambiental, no âmbito da isolação térmica, somada ao advento de novas leis que regulam os requisitos mínimos de conforto, as exigências dos consumidores pela adoção de métodos de produção mais “limpos”, a fiscalização quanto à destinação de resíduos industriais, além da inserção de produtos no mercado com apelos ambientais, incentivaram o desenvolvimento da presente pesquisa. O presente trabalho trata da aplicação do poliuretano, visando comparar o desempenho térmico do derivado de origem vegetal (óleo de mamona) com adição de resíduo plástico termofixo em diferentes proporções (5%, 10%, 15% e 20%), com o poliuretano petrolífero, a lã de vidro e a lã de rocha através da análise de suas propriedades térmicas (condutividade térmica – k, difusividade térmica – e capacidade calorífica – Cp). . Após a realização dos ensaios, os compósitos estudados foram moídos e reutilizados como carga para novos compósitos. Com base nos resultados dos ensaios de propriedades térmicas, constatou-se que o material desenvolvido conduz menos calor que o poliuretano de petróleo, a lã de vidro e a lã de rocha, além de oferecer alta inércia térmica, bom desempenho térmico e baixo custo. Assim como foi comprovada a possibilidade de fabricação de novos compósitos para fins de isolamento, reutilizando os compósitos testados

o objetivo do presente trabalho foi desenvolver um material adsorvente alternativo de íons sulfato a partir de um resíduo industrial abundante e renovável. Apesar da baixa toxicidade, concentrações elevadas destes íons inviabilizam o reciclo, o reuso e o descarte de efluentes. Para tanto, foi utilizado o resíduo do processamento de camarão que, após etapas de desmineralização, desproteinização e desacetilação, forneceu materiais quitinosos em forma de flakes com diferentes graus de desacetilação (GD), tendo sido selecionada a quitina com GD da ordem de 25% como sólido adsorvente. Os estudos de adsorção de íons sulfàto, realizados em frascos agitados com soluções sintéticas, mostraram valores de remoção da ordem de 92%, correspondente a uma capacidade de adsorção de 3,2 mEq.g-l. Estes resultados foram obtidos com o emprego de uma razão sólido/SO/- de 8,5 mg.mg-I, tempo de contato de 15 minutos e um pH de equilíbrio de 4,3 :t 0,3. Além da adsorção de íons sulfato, os resultados revelaram que quiti.na adsorve também íons molibdato (82% em 15 minutos e 92% em 60 minutos) sem qualquer interferência na adsorção de íons sulfato, fato considerado relevante no tratamento de efluentes de mineração de cobre e molibdênio. A adsorção dos íons sulfàto por quiti.na ocorre através do mecanismo de fisissorção por atração eletrostática, seguindo um modelo cinético de pseudo-segunda ordem, onde as etapas de transferência de massa dos íons não foram limitantes. A reversibilidade da adsorção, uma das características de processos que envolvem interações eletrostáticas, foi confirmada através de estudos de dessorção utilizando soluções de NaOH e permitiram verificar a possibilidade de regeneração do adsorvente. A cinética de adsorção em coluna de percolação, para uma granulometria de sólido e pH inicial do meio inferiores, foi maior do que a obtida no sistema de frascos agitados. Por outro lado, a capacidade de adsorção obtida a partir da curva de saturação em coluna de percolação foi praticamente a mesma obtida no sistema de :fIascosagitados. Nos estudos com efluentes industriais, o desempenho da quitina foi praticamente similar ao obtido com efluentes sintéticos, tendo sido atingidos elevados percentuais de adsorção. Estes resultados confirmam o potencial deste bioadsorvente para o tratamento de efluentes contendo altas concentrações de íons sulfato. Finalmente, são discutidas as considerações gerais do processo no contexto geral do tratamento de efluentes líquidos contendo compostos inorgânicos.

This study covered various features of the materials used in the composition of the Polymeric Lightweight Concrete, using a planning of factorial design 23, aiming at studying of the strength, production, dosage processes, characterization of mechanical properties and microstructural analysis of the transition zone between the light artificial aggregate and the matrix of cement. The results of the mechanical strength tests were analyzed using a computational statistics tool (Statistica software) to understand the behavior and obtain the ideal quantity of each material used in the formula of the Polymeric Lightweight Concrete. The definition of the ideal formula has the purpose of obtaining a material with the lowest possible dry density and resistance to compression in accordance with NBR 12.646/92 (≥ 2.5 MPa after 28 days). In the microstructural characterization by scanning electron microscopy it was observed an influence of the materials in the process of cement hydration, showing good interaction between the wrinkled face of the residue of unsaturated polyesters thermosetting and putty and, consequently, the final strength. The attaining of an ideal formula, given the Brazilian standards, the experimental results obtained in the characterization and comparison of these results with conventional materials, confirmed that the developed Polymeric Lightweight Concrete is suitable for the production of building elements that are advantageous for construction

The standardization of the bovine skin thickness in the leather industry generates a residue known as wet-blue . At the end of twentieth century, the brazilian industry discarded about 131 thousand tons of this residue in nature, provoking a great environmental liability. In this paper is presented the analyses of the termophysical properties, thermal and volumetric expansion performance of a composite of vegetable resin of castor oil plant (Ricinus communis) with load of industrial residue of leather "wet-blue", for application as thermal isolation material of warm surfaces. There were considered four percentile levels of residue load in the proportions in mass of 0%, 5%, 10% and 15%, added to the expansible resin of castor oil plant in two configurations: sawed leather and crushed leather in a smaller particle (powder) by grinding in a mill of balls. Twenty-one proof bodies were produced for termophysical properties analysis (three for each configuration) and four proof bodies for rehearsals of thermal acting. Analyses of thermal acting were done in test cameras. The results of the rehearsals were compared to those obtained considering the castor oil plant foam without residue addition. A small reduction of the thermal conductivity of the composite was observed in the proportion of 10% of leather residue in both configurations. Regarding thermal conductivity, calorific capacity and diffusivity, it was verified that the proposed composite showed very close values to the commercial insulating materials (glass wool, rock wool, EPS). It was still demonstrated the technical viability of the use of composite as insulating thermal for systems of low potency. The composite presented larger volumetric expansion with 15% of sawed residue of leather.

This work proposes the development of an innovative material made from a vegetable polyurethane matrix and load of industrial waste, from retread tires, for thermal insulation and environmental comfort. Experimental procedures are presented, as well as the results of the thermal and acoustic performance of this composite material, made from an expansive foam derived from the castor seed oil and fiber of scrap tires. The residue was treated superficially with sodium hydroxide, to eliminate contaminants, and characterized macroscopically and microscopically. Samples were produced with addition of residues at levels of 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% by weight, for determination of thermal properties: conductivity, heat capacity and thermal diffusivity, sound absortion index and density. The results were compared to commercially available thermal insulation and sound absorbing products. According to the analysis of results, it was concluded that the developed composite presents characteristics that qualify it as a thermal insulation with superior performance, compared to commercial available insulation, and sound absorption capacity greater than the castor oil polyurethane s, without addition of the residue

O emprego de resíduos na construção civil pode vir a se tornar uma atividade de extrema importância e mais freqüente, principalmente, pela quantidade disponível com potencialidades de reciclagem, possibilitando minimização dos impactos ambientais. As indústrias que beneficiam o caulim para ser utilizado na indústria de papel são responsáveis por gerar dois tipos de resíduos. Um deles, o resíduo contendo o argilomineral caulinita, apresenta potencialidade de ser utilizado como pozolanas na indústria da construção civil. Essa pesquisa avaliou a viabilidade técnica de produção de pozolanas provenientes de misturas de diversos percentuais do resíduo caulinítico com calcário, com vistas a incrementar a reatividade. Estudou-se os teores de substituição de cimento pelas pozolanas em 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% e 60%. O cimento utilizado foi do tipo CP I S 32 e as pozolanas foram produzidas em laboratório. Foram realizados os seguintes ensaios nos cimentos experimentais: massa específica, área superficial específica, água de consistência normal da pasta, tempo de pega e resistência à compressão. Nas pozolanas, além das análises química e física, foram realizados ensaios mineralógicos. Baseando-se nos resultados encontrados e na literatura técnica, observou-se que a fabricação da pozolana mostrou-se eficaz, pois permitiu aos cimentos alcançar resistências à compressão muito maiores à referência mesmo com teores elevados de incorporação. É lícito concluir que a incorporação do calcário na calcinação do resíduo proveniente do beneficiamento do caulim confirmou ser uma excelente alternativa na produção de pozolanas de alta reatividade, podendo ser empregadas como adições minerais aos cimentos compostos ou pozolânicos substituindo argilas naturais calcinadas e principalmente na fabricação de elementos pré-fabricados em conjunto com fibras em geral.
