In this work a chitosan (CS) ionically crosslinked were manufactured by treatment with sulfuric acid solution for application in the treatment of wastewater from oil industry. Two crosslinking process were developed: homogeneous and heterogeneous. In the homogeneous process the ratio molar of SO42-/ NH3+ (1:6 and 1:4) were the variable analyzed, denominated CS16 and CS14 respectively. In the heterogeneous process the soaking time of the membranes in sulfuric acid solution were the variable studied, being used times of 5 (CS5) and 30 (CS30) minutes. FTIR-ATR results indicated no changes in the characteristics of chitosan after homogeneous crosslinking process, while heterogeneous crosslinking showed formation of ionic bonds between protonated groups from chitosan and the crosslinking agent sulfate ions. TG/DTG and XRD analysis confirmed the formation of these interactions, as also shown the new structure on the surface region of CS5 and CS30 membranes compared to CS, CS16 e CS14. Swelling test in aqueous medium have shown that crosslinking process reduced the membrane sorption capacity. Swelling test in acid medium demonstrated that CS16 and CS14 membranes increasing the adsorption capacity up to a maximum percentage of 140% approximately, whereas the CS5 e CS30 reached a maximum of 60%. The mechanical properties indicated the stiff and ductile behavior of crosslinked membrane. Adsorption experiments of CuCl2 results that CS16 membranes reached the efficiency maximum with 73% of copper removal at pH 5.0 and 87% at pH 4.0. The experiments with CuSO4 also obtained efficiency maximum to the CS16 membrane and 80% to the removal of Cu2+ ions. Also was verified that the increase of concentration and temperature cause a decrease in the adsorption capacity for all membranes. Kinetics study indicated that pseudo-second-order obtained characterized better the membranes. Equilibrium studies demonstrated that the CS, CS16 and CS14 follow the Langmuir model, whereas CS5 and CS30 follows Freundlich model. Filtration experiments results with rejection maximum to the CS16 and CS5 membranes, reaching 92 and 98% respectively.

O presente trabalho envolveu a produção de membranas compósitas para separação de CO2 a altas temperaturas. Os compósitos habituais são constituídos por duas fases, uma cerâmica, de céria dopada com gadolínio (Ce0.9Gd0.1O0.95 - CGO) condutora de iões óxido, que funciona como suporte da segunda fase composta por uma mistura eutética de carbonatos alcalinos (Li2CO3 e Na2CO3), que assegura o transporte de iões carbonato. O objetivo do trabalho prende-se com o estudo do transporte de iões através destes compósitos, por forma a perceber se os sais destes compósitos apresentam condução iónica singular ou condução mista. Neste sentido a resposta a esta questão teve por base a realização de ensaios de eficiência faradaica com recurso a amostras compósitas envolvendo matrizes de CGO (condutor de iões óxido) e de aluminato de lítio (não condutor de iões óxido). A preparação tanto de esqueletos porosos como de compósitos foi realizada tendo por base métodos e precursores semelhantes aos usados na literatura. Primeiramente efetuou-se o processamento dos esqueletos porosos para posteriormente impregnação com mistura eutética de carbonatos. Obtidos os compósitos estes foram caraterizados por microscopia de impedância e por microscopia eletrónica de varrimento de forma a serem submetidos mais tarde aos ensaios de eficiência faradaica. Os resultados de eficiência faradaica revelaram que na realidade existem processos de condução mista cuja importância depende das condições de operação da membrana.

Atualmente há uma crescente preocupação quanto à qualidade dos recursos hídricos, e essa notória inquietação se deve em parte ao aumento na demanda e consumo de água a nível global, uma vez que o crescimento econômico, juntamente com o desenvolvimento tecnológico, agrícola e industrial conduz a poluição ambiental. Neste contexto, os agrotóxicos, apresentam um alto fator de risco para a qualidade dos recursos hídricos, pois essas substâncias geralmente são tóxicas e não biodegradáveis. Diante deste cenário, um dos maiores desafios nos dias atuais é a eliminação de uma parte significativa, dessa poluição, a qual é causada por esses contaminantes orgânicos tóxicos. O processo clássico de oxidação biológica falha na eliminação de compostos tóxicos, bem como de contaminantes orgânicos recalcitrantes. Além disso, os processos físico-químicos, como a adsorção em carvão ativado, floculação, e a filtração por membranas, apenas transferem esses contaminantes de fase, sem que ocorra a sua destruição. Sendo assim, surge a necessidade da adoção de técnicas que possam ser destrutivas a essas espécies. Os Processos Oxidativos Avançados, surgem como um caminho alternativo para diminuir e eliminar os resíduos desses contaminantes orgânicos. Por tanto, tiveram-se como objetivos neste trabalho: (i) desenvolver e otimizar um processo Fenton empregando ferro zero e peróxido de hidrogênio (Fe0 /H2O2) (ii) utilizar como fonte de ferro zero para o processo Fenton limalha de ferro, a qual é um resíduo da atividade metalúrgica na cidade de Rio Grande (iii) otimizar o tempo de reação (TR) e tempo de homogeneização (TH) para a Fotocatálise Heterogênea empregando um catalisador de sílica dopada com dióxido de titânio e dicloreto de tris (2,2-bipiridina) rutênio II (iv) desenvolver um método cromatográfico empregando LC-DAD para realizar o monitoramento da degradação dos agrotóxicos (v) empregar a LC-MS/MS para confirmar a degradação dos agrotóxicos e monitorar a formação de produtos (vi) empregar IC para monitorar a formação de espécies iônicas (vii) realizar a determinação de COT para estimar a mineralização do carbono orgânico dissolvido. Para tanto, um total de seis agrotóxicos foram selecionados para a o estudo de degradação: bentazona, carbofurano, clomazona, diurom, tebuconazole e piraclostrobina. O sistema Fe0 /H2O2 desenvolvido para a degradação dos agrotóxicos mostrou ser eficiente. A eficiência de degradação foi fortemente afetada pelo pH, massa de limalha de ferro e concentração de peróxido de hidrogênio. As melhores condições para a degradação foram: pH 2,0, 5 mmol L-1 H2O2 e 2,0 g de limalha de ferro. No tempo total de 20 min o carbono orgânico total foi reduzido levando a mineralização de 55%, com taxas de degradação que variaram de 51 a 100%. A utilização de recirculação no sistema Fe0 /H2O2 elevou a taxa de degradação dos agrotóxicos bentazona e carbofurano. As taxas variaram de 93 a 100% de degradação, com um tempo total de reação de 120 min, chegando a 63% de mineralização. O sistema TiO2/UV também mostrou-se adequado a degradação dos agrotóxicos. As condições ótimas foram 20 mg de catalisador, pH 7, TH de 15 min e TR de 110 min. O sistema apresentou taxas de degradação que variaram de 71 a 99,98%. Levando a mineralização de 97,60% da demanda de carbono orgânico.

The behaviour of Nafion® polymeric membranes containing acid-base dyes, bromothymol blue (BB) and methyl violet (MV), were studied aiming at constructing an optical sensor for pH measurement. BB revealed to be inadequate for developing sensing phases due to the electrostatic repulsion between negative groups of their molecules and the negative charge of the sulfonate group of the Nafion®, which causes leaching of the dye from the membrane. On the other hand, MV showed to be suitable due to the presence of positive groups in its structure. The membrane prepared from a methanolic solution whose Nafion®/dye molar ratio was 20 presented the best analytical properties, changing its color from green to violet in the pH range from 0.6 to 3.0. The membrane can be prepared with good reproducibility, presenting durability of ca. 6 months and response time of 22 s, making possible its use for pH determination in flow analysis systems.

Petroleum biodegradation in reservoirs is a process caused by different microorganisms affecting many oil deposits which modifies the oil composition in a quasi-stepwise process starting from n-alkanes and isoprenoids through to diasteranes. This causes oil souring and increased viscosity, sulfur and metal content, having a direct impact on oil production and refining costs.

This paper discusses theoretical results of the research project Linguistic Identity and Identification: A Study of Functions of Second Language in Enunciating Subject Constitution. Non-cognitive factors that have a crucial incidence in the degree of success and ways of accomplishment of second language acquisition process are focused. A transdisciplinary perspective is adopted, mobilising categories from Discourse Analysis and Psychoanalysis. The most relevant ones are: discursive formation, intradiscourse, interdiscourse, forgetting n° 1, forgetting n° 2 (Pêcheux, 1982), identity, identification (Freud, 1966; Lacan, 1977; Nasio, 1995). Revuz s views (1991) are discussed. Her main claim is that during the process of learning a foreign language, the foundations of psychical structure, and consequently first language, are required. After examining how nomination and predication processes work in first and second languages, components of identity and identification processes are focused on, in an attempt to show how second language acquisition strategies depend on them. It is stated that methodological affairs of language teaching, learner s explicit motivation and the like are subordinated to the comprehension of deeper non-cognitive factors that determine the accomplishment of the second language acquisition process. It is also pointed out that those factors are to be approached, questioning the bipolar biological-social conception of subjectivity in the study of language acquisition and use and including in the analysis symbolic and significant dimensions of the discourse constitution process.
