Utilização da função desirability na otimização do processo de usinagem da superliga NIMONIC 80A

In the current economic scenario, it is important to the incessant search for improvements in production quality and also in reducing costs. The great competition and technological innovation makes customers stay more and more demanding and seek multiple sources of improvement in production. The work aimed to use the general desirability to optimize a process involving multiple answers in machining experiment. The process of cylindrical turning is one of the most common processes of metal cutting machining and involves several factors, in which will be analysed the best combination of the input factors in machining process, with variable response to surface roughness (Ra) and cutting length (Lc) that vary important answers to measure process efficiency and product quality. The method is a case study, since it involves a study of a tool well addressed in the literature. Data analysis was used in the process of doctoral thesis of Ricardo Penteado on the theme using metaheuristicas combined with different methods of bonding for the optimization of a turning process of multiple responses, then used the desirability and analysis tool. Joint optimization by desirability, the method proposed the following combination of input variables, variable cutting speed at 90 m/min ( -1 level), the breakthrough in 0, 12 mm/revol. ( -1 level), the machining depth should be in 1.6 mm (level 1), gum used must be the TP2500 ( -1 level), in abundant fluid (level 1) and laminated material (level 1) to the maximization of the cutting length (Lc) and minimization of roughness (Ra)

Usinagem do alumínio da classe 6005 com uso de ferramenta cerâmica

The machining process is so much important in the economic world. Many machining parameters have been studied to maximize results, in terms of cost and lifetime. (decrease of cutting tool wear, improved surface finish, among others). The objective of this study is to evaluate the wear of a ceramic tool in the machining of the aluminum alloy 6005 A. The analysis of the wear of the cutting tools is very important due to its big impact on the final finishing of the piece as a whole. The evaluation took place in two stages, first it was done a detailed study of the literature of the whole machining process, where the study of the formation and swarf classification were among the most important steps in this phase. The second step consisted in the machining of the piece of aluminum 6005 A with a ceramic cutting tool constituded of aluminum oxide and magnesium oxide with silicon carbide impregnation. The swarf generated in this process was then photographed with a Zeiss optical microscope and analyzed for its size and shape. Through this comparison it was concluded that the swarf are generated shear swarfs, shaped like a tangled, fragmented and arcs connected, thus classifying the material as medium difficulty machining. Through the image analysis tool it was concluded that the parameter of lower wear was the: Vc = 500m / min, f = 0.10mm / rev and ap = 0.5mm

Estudo da utilização de ferramentas a base de nitreto de silício (Si3N4) e alumina (Al2O3) na usinagem do ferro fundido vermicular

Machining is one of the most commonly manufacturing processes used in the modern world, consuming millions of dollars annually. Because of this, it is crucial for the automotive industry to reduce costs on their heat-resistant alloy machining processes, such as compacted graphite iron (CGI), which has shown an increasing trend of its application in diesel engine blocks, brakes disks, among other applications, due to its superior mechanical properties to gray cast iron. Despite this advantage, its use is still limited due to its difficulty of machining, moreover, cutting tools are displayed as the main factor in increasing the machining cost. Seeking an alternative to a better machinability of CGI, this paper aims to study two types of ceramic tools developed in Brazil, and benchmark their performance by dry turning. For this, were used CGI class 450 and two tools: ceramic of silicon nitride (Si3N4) and alumina-based (Al2O3), with a cutting speed (Vc) of 300, 400 and 500 m / min; feed (f) of 0.2 mm / rev and depth of cut (ap) of 0.5 mm, using three replicates and starting with new cutting edges. The results showed that the Al2O3 tool had the best performance in Vc of 500 m / min, while the Si3N4 tool had the best results in Vc of 300 m / min. This can be explained by the tool of Si3N4 based include soft intergranular phase, called amorphous, while alumina has higher abrasion resistance due to its high refractoriness. The results make it clear that the tools have significant potential for machining of compacted graphite iron, being necessary a strict control of the cutting parameters used

Preparação de vidros e vitrocerâmicas de óxidos de metais pesados contendo prata: propriedades ópticas, estruturais e eletroquímicas

Silver containing heavy metal oxide glasses and glass ceramics of the system WO3-SbPO4-PbO-AgCl with different AgCl contents have been prepared and their thermal, structural and optical properties characterized. Glass ceramics containing metallic silver nanoparticles have been prepared by annealing glass samples at temperatures above the glass transition and analyzed by transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis. The presence of the metallic clusters has been also confirmed by the observation of a surface plasmon resonimce band in the visible range. Cyclic voltammetric measurements indicated the presence of metallic silver into the glasses, even before to perform the thermal treatment.

Uso do bivalve límnico Anodontites tenebricosus (LEA, 1834) no biomonitoramento de metais do Rio Ribeira de Iguape

This study investigated the contamination of the Ribeira de Iguape River - RIR by Cd, Zn, Cr and Pb, using the bivalve Anodontites tenebricosus as a biomonitor. Metal concentrations in tissue samples were measured by HR-ICPMS. Bivalve tissues exhibited mean levels of 1.00 µg/g Cd; 152.89 µg/g Zn; 14.79 µg/g Cr and 4.40 µg/g Pb. Lead concentrations were comparable to those reported for moderately contaminated sites. The results showed that Pb is bioavailable to the bivalves, exhibiting high concentrations and exceeding both natural and reference values for human consumption. The freshwater bivalve Anodontites tenebricosus is a suitable biomonitor of contamination by metals.

Estudo eletroquímico da recuperação de metais de pilhas e de baterias descartadas após o uso

O objetivo da pesquisa é recuperar os principais metais presentes em um lote com uma mistura de diversos tipos de pilhas e de baterias descartadas após o uso, lote obtido em um posto de coleta. Para esse estudo, o resíduo das pilhas e das baterias foi moído, reduzido em forno elétrico, submetido à separação magnética e lixiviado. A composição química, após a lixiviação, foi reproduzida em uma solução sintética, que foi submetida à extração por solventes e reextração sendo que as soluções obtidas, após as reextrações, foram utilizadas como eletrólitos. Manganês, cobre, cobalto e níquel são recuperados na forma metálica após um tratamento que inclui as etapas pirometalúrgica, hidrometalúrgica e eletroquímica. Estudos anteriores definiram os parâmetros das etapas pirometalúrgica, lixiviação e extração por solventes que proporcionaram separação mais seletiva dos íons metálicos que se pretende recuperar. A contribuição do presente estudo é encontrar um processo que trate de todos os tipos de pilhas e de baterias juntos e recuperar seus metais mais importantes, evitando, assim, a etapa de separação prévia das baterias. Os filmes foram analisados quanto à sua espessura e composição.

Avaliação dos Níveis de Metais, Arsênio e Fósforo em Sedimentos Superficiais Marinhos do Arquipélago dos Alcatrazes (São Sebastião – SP) e das Ilhas das Cabras e Palmas (Ubatuba – SP)

Avaliação dos Níveis de Metais, Arsênio e Fósforo em Sedimentos Superficiais Marinhos do Arquipélago dos Alcatrazes (São Sebastião – SP) e das Ilhas das Cabras e Palmas (Ubatuba – SP) Natasha TraveniskHoffa*, Rubens César Lopes Figueiraa, Denis M. S. Abessab aInstituto Oceanográfico, Universidade de São Paulo, Praça do Oceanográfico - 191, São Paulo - SP, Brasil bUniversidade Estadual Paulista – Campus Experimental Litoral Paulista, Praça Infante Dom Henrique - s/nº, São Vicente – SP, Brasil *e-mail da autora: tashahoff@gmail.com A obtenção dos valores naturais de metais traço nos sedimentos é uma importante informação para estabelecer valores-guias ou orientadores, que vêm sido utilizados por diversas agências ambientais pelo mundo para definir níveis de contaminação e toxicidade. Este trabalho avaliou os níveis de Al, As, Cr, Cu, P, Fe, Hg, Ni, Pb e Zn nas imediações da Estação Ecológica (ESEC) Tupinambás - no Arquipélago de Alcatrazes (São Sebastião – SP) e nos arredores das Ilhas das Cabras e Palmas (Ubatuba – SP). Atualmente, a ESEC encontra-se teoricamente livre de influência antrópica, mas vem passando pelo processo de recategorização para tornar-se Parque Nacional Marinho (PARNAM). A inexistência de dados pretéritos específicos para a região torna este trabalho de relevância ambiental. Foram analisadas as concentrações dos elementos químicos aplicando-se os métodos de digestão ácida parcial e total do sedimento, além de parâmetros sedimentológicos (granulometria, teores de matéria orgânica - MO - e carbonato). Resultados mostraram predominância da fração arenosa nos sedimentos (48,7 - 96,6%). Os teores de carbonato estiveram maiores em Alcatrazes (3,2 - 76,6%) que nos ilhotes (2,2 - 68,1%), tendo o inverso sido observado com os teores de MO, tendo a primeira região apresentado valores entre 0,5 e 12,6%, e a segunda, entre 8,7 e 26,8%. Os níveis de metais mais elevados associados às maiores proporções da fração lamosa nas regiões em estudo. As e P apresentaram comportamento diferenciado, sem correlacionar-se com os demais, indicando uma possível contaminação da região. Ao final, estas concentrações, consideradas naturais, poderão ser utilizadas como dados de controle em futuros estudos ambientais e auxiliar na gestão do futuro PARNAM dos Alcatrazes.

Levantamento dos fatores de enriquecimento do As e metais em sedimentos superficiais do Canal de Bertioga (SP), Brazil

Em virtude do desenvolvimento econômico do litoral paulista, ao longo do século XX, ocorreram modificações no ambiente costeiro proveniente de construções de rodovias, melhorias na estrutura portuária de Santos e implantação do pólo petroquímico de Cubatão. Localizado na porção mais a NE do complexo estuarino da Baixada Santista, o Canal de Bertioga, com aproximadamente 25 km de extensão, faz a ligação entre o oceano e o alto estuário santista. O canal é considerado como uma conexão secundária do oceano ao complexo estuarino de Santos, com sua desembocadura a nordeste localizada próxima a cidade de Bertioga, e a desembocadura oposta próxima ao canal do alto estuário santista. Assim, esse trabalho teve como objetivo fazer um levantamento dos fatores de enriquecimento de As, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb e Zn em 147 amostras de sedimentos superficiais coletadas ao longo do Canal. As amostras foram inicialmente liofilizadas, procedendo-se a digestão ácida e determinação dos elementos de interesse por espectrometria de emissão ótica por plasma indutivamente acoplado (ICP-OES). Os resultados obtidos mostraram-se distribuídos dentro de dois padrões, um deles apresentando maiores valores de fator de enriquecimento na desembocadura sul, próximo à região de Guarujá e o outro, na desembocadura norte, o qual sofre grande influência do estuário Santista e das inúmeras fontes ali presentes

150 anos de aporte de metais antropogênicos emu ma reserva da Biosfera: o Estudo de caso do sistema costeiro Cananéia-Iguape, Sudeste do Brasil.

Devido às suas cracaterísticas físico‐químicas e geológicas, estuários e lagunas acham‐se entre os ambientes mais sensíveis para a contaminação de metais e, em vários casos, este aporte de metais está relacionado à atividade mineira nas áreas a montante do curso de água, não raro a muitos quilômetros de distância. O sistema Cananéia‐Iguape consiste em um complexo de canais estuarino‐lagunares, localizados na Reserva da Biosfera do Lagamar. Esses canais são bordejados por vegetação de mangue exuberante, e são um importante criadouro natural de espécies de organismos de interesse commercial, e base da economia da população local.

Levantamento dos níveis de metais e compostos orgânicos em sedimentos superficiais da plataforma continental adjacente à Baía de Santos (Brasil)

O estuário Santista (SP) é uma das áreas mais impactadas do litoral paulista. A industrialização e a urbanização ocorridas no litoral central do estado de São Paulo, ao longo dos últimos 70 anos, acarretou significativas mudanças na dinâmica sedimentar do estuário e da baía de Santos, sem que se conheça o real impacto destas modificações na sequência sedimentar depositada na plataforma continental interna adjacente.
