Montmorillonite clay from Brazil was pillared with aluminium polyhydroxications. The influence of aging of the pillaring solution and the concentration of the clay suspension on the properties of the prepared materials was studied. The materials were characterized by chemical analysis, XRD and pore analysis by N2 adsorption. The catalytic properties were evaluated in the cumene cracking reaction. Results showed that the pillarization process increases the basal spaces of natural clay from 9.7 to 18.5 Å and the surface area from 41 to 300 m²/g.

A general method for instantaneous and time-dependent serviceability analysis of plane concrete frames is presented. The methodology is based in an extension of the classic matrix formulation for bars. The main aspects influencing the behaviour of the structural concrete are considered: cracking, creep, shrinkage or prestress losses. To simulate the effect of cracking a smeared model (developed in Part II) based on the modification of the tensile branch of the concrete stress-strain relationship is adopted. The general approach considered permits the application to different materials and constitutive laws. Sequential construction (sectional and structural), incorporation of reinforcement, consideration of the loads history; placing and removing shores, and restraining or releasing in boundary conditions are considered. Some examples are included to highlight the capabilities of the model

Periodically, during petroleum shortage, fatty acids and their derivatives have been used as alternative fuels to those derived from petroleum. Different approaches have been proposed, including the use of neat fats and oils or their derivatives. Indeed, the utilization of biodiesel produced by alcoholysis of triacilglycerides or esterification of fatty acids, or hydrocarbons obtained from cracking of fatty materials were studied and used in several countries. Increasing concerns about energy security and climate changes have lead several countries, including Brazil, to start up biofuels programs. Different technologies are currently being developed in order to produce biofuels with economical feasibility. In this work are discussed alternative fatty raw-materials and processing technologies that are currently being studied in order to produce fuels suitable to sustainable substitute diesel fuel.

This research was motivated by the need to examine the potential application areas of process intensification technologies in Neste Oil Oyj. According to the company’s interest membrane reactor technology was chosen and applicability of this technology in refining industry was investigated. Moreover, Neste Oil suggested a project which is related to the CO2 capture from FCC unit flue gas stream. The flowrate of the flue gas is 180t/h and consist of approximately 14% by volume CO2. Membrane based absorption process (membrane contactor) was chosen as a potential technique to model CO2 capture from fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) unit effluent. In the design of membrane contactor, a mathematical model was developed to describe CO2 absorption from a gas mixture using monoethanole amine (MEA) aqueous solution. According to the results of literature survey, in the hollow fiber contactor for laminar flow conditions approximately 99 % percent of CO2 can be removed by using a 20 cm in length polyvinylidene fluoride (PDVF) membrane. Furthermore, the design of whole process was performed by using PRO/II simulation software and the CO2 removal efficiency of the whole process obtained as 97 %. The technical and economical comparisons among existing MEA absorption processes were performed to determine the advantages and disadvantages of membrane contactor technology.

A new post-harvest disease of coconut (Cocos nucifera) was recently detected in fruits exported to European countries. The main symptoms are the blacking and cracking of basal parts of the fruits. Water oozing may occurs as the infection progresses. The fungus Lasiodiplodia theobromae has been frequently isolated from the lesions. Inoculation tests proved that this pathogen is the causal agent of the coconut fruit basal rot. This is the first occurrence of this post-harvest disease in Brazil.

Os íons fosfito constituem um importante componente inorgânico como fonte de fósforo na fertilização de solos, apresentando incontáveis vantagens em relação ao fosfato. A determinação desse ânion em produtos fertilizantes é usualmente realizada empregando-se método clássico de análise como gravimetria, sob a forma de pirofosfato de magnésio ou pela formação de cloreto mercuroso. Entretanto, existem algumas desvantagens nesta metodologia, como a necessidade de um elevado tempo de digestão e a possível produção de resíduos tóxicos. Sendo assim, este trabalho teve como objetivo propor uma metodologia eletroquímica alternativa para a determinação de fosfito. A modificação eletroquímica na superfície de eletrodos de platina realizada por eletrodeposição de paládio apresentou efeito catalítico para a oxidação de íons fosfito a fosfato em meio de ácido sulfúrico 1,0 mol.L-1. Uma dependência linear em relação à concentração de fosfito foi obtida no intervalo de 5,0x10-6 a 5,0x10-4 mol.L-1 tendo uma sensibilidade amperométrica de 8,5x10(4) miA.mol-1.L e um limite de detecção de 3.67x10-6 mol.L-1.

Íons cobre(II) catalisam a oxidação de ácido ascórbico por oxigênio molecular. O mecanismo envolve a coordenação dos reagentes ao íon metálico. Íons malato, quando presentes, também se coordenam ao cobre(II) e inibem o efeito catalítico. As constantes cinéticas específicas (k / mol-1 L min.-1) da reação em presença de íons malato são 46,58, 7,11 e 30,00 em valores de pH de 3,5, 4,5 e 5,8, respectivamente. Existe decréscimo do valor de k com o aumento do pH de 3,5 para 4,5, o que está de acordo com a coordenação mais efetiva do malato ao cobre(II).

Amostras de esmectitas oriundas do estado do Pará, região amazônica, Brasil, foram usadas em processo de pilarização no presente estudo. As matrizes pilarizadas e natural foram caracterizadas usando DRX e analise textural usando isotermas de adsorção-desorção de nitrogênio. Os íons de intercalação (Al13, Ti, Zr) foram obtidos através de reações químicas com soluções de AlCl(3)6H2O/ NaOH, etoxido de titânio/HCl, acetato de zircônio / HCl. Os resultados obtidos com o processo de pilarização apresentaram aumento do espaçamento basal de 15,6 para 20, 64 Å e área superficial de 44 para 358 m²/g (Zr-PILC). A estabilidade térmica da argila natural foi melhorada com o processo de pilarização. O material resultante foi submetido a um processo catalítico de decomposição do óleo de andiroba em um reator de leito fixo a 673 ± 1 K. A atividade catalítica foi determinada pelo produto de decomposição resultante da reação química. Os parâmetros físico-químicos foram obtidos usando DRX, FTIR e análise textural. As argilas pilarizadas apresentaram alta acidez de Brønsted, com alta concentração de hidrocarbonetos aromáticos e baixa concentração de hidrocarbonetos alifáticos.

Tässä työssä tutkittiin Ruukin valmistamista lujista Optim 700 MC Plus sekä Optim 700 QL teräksistä tehtyjen hitsattujen palkkirakenteiden vikasietoisuutta sekä murtumiskäyttäytymistä laboratoriossa suoritettujen täyden mittakaavan kokeiden avulla. Koerakenteet suunniteltiin siten, että rakenteen kylmämuovauksen sekä hitsauksen vaikutukset yhdessä rakenteen geometrian vaikutuksen kanssa heikentävät rakenteen murtumissitkeyttä rakenteeseen tehdyn teräväkärkisen alkusärön tasossa. Suunnitellussa koesarjassa varioidaan testauslämpötilan lisäksi hitsauksen lämmöntuontia sekä koerakenteeseen tehtävän alkusärön kokoa. Tässä työssä tavoitteena oli yleisesti esittää menettely hitsatun säröllisen teräsrakenteen kestävyyden arviointia varten. Optim 700 MC Plus teräksestä tehdyn koerakenteen käyttäytymistä tutkittiin laskennallisesti murtumismekaniikan avulla. Laadittujen FEM - mallien avulla laskettiin rakenteen murtumisparametrien arvot kummallekin tutkittavalle teräkselle. Optim 700 MC Plus materiaalista valmistetuille koerakenteen säröalueen rakennedetaljia vastaavalle koekappaleille suoritettiin murtumissitkeyskokeita. Murtumissitkeyskokeista saatujen tulosten avulla pystyttiin kuvaamaan täyden mittakaavan koerakenteessa olevan särön murtumiskäyttäytymistä mitoitusmenetelmissä. Koerakenteelle laskettiin tässä työssä kriittisen särökoon ja sitä vastaavan kuorman arvot perustuen rakenteen oletettuun hauraaseen, epästabiiliin sitkeään sekä plastiseen murtumiskäyttäytymiseen. Tässä työssä testattiin molemmista tutkittavista materiaaleista valmistetut täyden mittakaavan koerakenteet -40 °C lämpötilassa. Molemmat testatut rakenteet käyttäytyvät mitattujen siirtymätulosten perusteella melko hauraasti. Optim 700 MC Plus materiaalille saatujen laskentatulosten voidaan todeta testatun koekappaleen perusteella soveltuvan hauraasti käyttäytyvän rakenteen mitoitukseen.

A videira é uma das principais fruteiras cultivadas em todo o mundo e atualmente a preferência por uvas do tipo "sem sementes" ou "apirênicas" vem aumentando gradativamente no mercado interno brasileiro. A cultivar 'Romana' (A1105) tem mostrado grande potencial como nova alternativa de uva de mesa apirênica na região de Jundiaí - SP. No entanto, a qualidade dos cachos tem sido afetada pela ocorrência de chuvas na época da colheita, propiciando a incidência de rachaduras nas bagas ("cracking") e podridões. Visando a solucionar essa dificuldade, foram conduzidos experimentos de campo em vinhedo cultivado em cortina dupla e sob cobertura plástica. Após a colheita, foram coletadas oito amostras com seis cachos cada, que foram armazenadas a 3 ºC e submetidas a avaliações de qualidade por um período máximo de 36 dias. A perda de massa ultrapassou o valor de 6% após três semanas de armazenamento refrigerado, quando apresentou sinais de murchamento das bagas, concluindo-se que o período máximo de armazenamento em câmara fria para a cultivar 'Romana' (A1105) foi de 21 dias.

Tässä työssä tutkittiin pohjaöljy-yksikössä sijaitsevan tislauskolonnin pohjaosan likaantumista ja likaantumisen vähentämistä kolonnin sisärakenteita muuttamalla. Tislauskolonnin likaantuminen aiheutuu raskaista molekyyleistä, asfalteeneistä, joita pohjaöljy sisältää. Pohjaöljyä krakattaessa kevyemmiksi tisleiksi asfalteenien liukoisuus pienenee. Asfalteenimolekyylit alkavat lopulta yhdistyä, minkä seurauksena muodostuu asfalteenejä sisältävä hiilimäinen mesofaasi. Radikaalireaktioiden kautta mesofaasista muodostuu koksia. Mesofaasi tarttuu tiukasti tislauskolonnin sisärakenteiden pinnoille aiheuttaen koksaantumista. Koksaantumisen seurauksena strippausvälipohjina käytettävien suihkupohjien tislausteho huononee. Koksaantumisen johdosta suihkupohjien ja kolonnin pohjaosan tukkeentumisen riski kasvaa. Suihkupohjien likaantumista pyritään vähentämään muuttamalla suihkupohjat sileiksi välipohjiksi ilman patolevyjä ja reikiä. Tällä tavoin saadaan neste virtaamaan vapaasti välipohjalta toiselle, mikä vähentää mesofaasin ja koksin muodostumista. Likaantumista voitaisiin myös vähentää tuomalla jäähdytyskiertopalautus välipohjille, minkä avulla neste saadaan jäähtymään nopeammin alle lämpökrakkautumislämpötilan, mikä vähentää koksaantumista. Kolonnin pohjaosassa sijaitsevan pohjaseulan likaantumista voitaisiin vähentää harventamalla pohjaseulan tankoja, mikä vähentää koksin tarttumapinta-alaa. Likaantumisen online-seurantaa saadaan parannettua lisäämällä pintalämpötilamittauksia järjestelmällisesti samoille korkeuksille kolonnin vastakkaisille puolille.

The main objective of the present study was to verify the approach on starch-gelatin blending for the paperboard coating formulations with enhanced barrier and mechanical properties. Based on that, another objective was to find out, how the approach will function with wood-based polysaccharides (CMC, EHEC and HPC) by analyzing their barrier properties and convertibility. The last objective was to find out, if pigments can be used in the composition of polysaccharide-protein blends without causing any negative effect on stated properties. The whole process chain of the barrier coating development was studied in the research. The methodology applied included pilot-scale coating and converting trials for the evaluation of mechanical properties of obtained coatings, namely their exposure to cracking with the loss of barrier properties. The results obtained indicated that the combination of starch with gelatin, in fact, improves the grease barrier properties and flexibility of starch-based coatings, thereby confirming the offered approach. The similar results were obtained for CMC, exhibited elevated barrier properties and surface coverage, proving that the approach also functions with wood-based polysaccharides. The introduction of equal amounts of talc gave various effects at different gelatin dosages on barrier properties of wood-based polysaccharides. Mainly, the elevation of grease barrier properties was observed. The convertibility of talc-filled coatings was not sufficient.
