Estudo da incorporação de cinza e chamote gerado pela cerâmica vermelha ao próprio processo industrial

The ceramics industry generates waste at various stages of that process, defective products, waste from burning solid fuels, among others. This waste is dumped in landfills, garbage dumps or directly on roads, which has a negative environmental impact. This paper presents a study to incorporate the waste of algaroba wood and chamote (scrap pieces of ceramic already sintered), in to the ceramic material for making sealing blocks. The methodological procedures consist in the characterization of chemical and mineralogical residues, raw materials, and physical-mechanical of the formulations of mixes with clay, silt and waste. By pressing test pieces were produced using a pressure of 200 kgf/cm², varying compositions in the range of 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% by weight of residue. The sintering was performed in a muffle furnace, with the temperature levels of 850 ° C, 900 ° C, 950 ° C, 1000 ° C and 1050 ° C. The evaluated physical and mechanical properties were: Water Absorption, Linear Shrinkage Burning, Apparent Porosity, Apparent Density and Mechanical Resistance to Flexion. Analysis was carried out by Scanning Electron Microscopy on fracture surfaces of the specimens. Evaluation of linear shrinkage property drying and firing , water absorption and mechanical resistance to compression of the sealing blocks 5% wood ash residue, sintered at 900 °C hold temperature in the laboratory the products manufactured on an industrial scale. The main results, it was found on the viability of using the residues of algaroba wood and to confer refractory properties of the ceramic product. The main results, it was concluded feasibility of using the ash residues algaroba wood to impart refractory properties to the ceramic product and the residue of chamote, being derived from the own ceramic product not interfere with the properties, when used in a percentage of up to 5%.Since the residue of chamote being derived from the ceramic product itself had no effect on the properties. Studies in the laboratory have shown that the incorporation of up to 5% of these residues may be adopted as an alternative technology to reduce the environmental impact caused by the industrial sector, without compromising the final properties of the material, since the results on an industrial scale showed absorption values 11.66 and 11.74 of water and waste products respectively, within the parameters of NBR - 15,270, since the mechanical strength was 1.25 MPa and 0.94 MPa respectively for products with and without residue, lower than the minimum required by the technical standard that is 1.5 MPa.

Ceramic materials the alumina base are large industrial applications. They are required for these products, specific characteristics obtained by following strict criteria during the manufacturing process. However, after life, not always these products are reused by a suitable waste management process. In ceramist context, advance research aimed at the reuse of waste aimed at obtaining ceramics and composite materials, with marked reduction of conventional raw materials. Aiming to generate scientific, technological and environmental contribution, this work studied to obtain a composite of alumina ceramic (Al2O3) and sodium beta alumina (NaAl11O17 ), and as starting materials the residue of the ceramic insulator of spark plugs, as a source alumina (Al2O3) powder and unusable sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) of fire extinguishers, as a source of sodium oxide (Na2O). The final ceramic product was obtained from a conventional mixture of sodium aluminum oxide in appropriate molar proportions. Sample spark plugs were obtained, discarded by lifetime, specific to a manufacturer, which, after passing through mechanical stress (grinding, magnetic purification, washing, drying and grinding the high energy), which resulted in residue powder with ceramic content of 84.34 % alumina (Al2O3), found by FRX chemical analysis, the phases present and identified by DRX. The dry chemical fire extinguisher, baking soda-based (NaHCO3) with expired, was obtained through direct collection of the waste generated during maintenance. Subjected to heat treatment at 120 °C , the NaHCO3 powder was decomposed in sodium oxide ( Na2O), which, subjected to chemical analysis (FRX) and mineralogical (DRX) revealed a content of 86.62 % sodium oxide (Na2O) . In the following steps the experimental procedure, chemical formulations were made on a molar basis of the starting material (1:9, 1:10 and 1:11 de Na2O/ Al2O3) inclusion of additives, milling parameters, sieve analysis, dilatometry, conformation of specimens, sintering in firing steps at 800 °C , 1000 °C and 1.200 °C with varying stays 30 , 60 and 120 minutes in each of the levels.

Contributo para a avaliação do desempenho ambiental de telha cerâmica através da aplicação da pegada ambiental do produto

O presente projeto tem como objetivo principal a aplicação da metodologia da pegada ambiental do produto (PAP) no sector da indústria cerâmica, nomeadamente, para o caso de estudo da telha, permitindo a aferição e comunicação do desempenho ambiental ao longo do ciclo de vida da telha Advance Lusa na tonalidade vermelho natural. Com este intuito procedeu-se à avaliação do ciclo de vida (ACV) dos impactos ambientais gerados pela sua produção, desde a extração de matérias-primas até à fase de distribuição, ou seja, com base numa análise ‘cradle-to-gate’. A implementação da metodologia requer o cálculo dos potenciais impactos ambientais tendo em conta as etapas relevantes no contexto dos limites definidos para o sistema em estudo. O método de avaliação de impactos utilizado é o método ILCD Midpoint + através da utilização do software SimaPro e com recurso às respetivas bibliotecas de bases de dados. A avaliação do perfil de utilização dos recursos e emissões possibilita assim aferir o desempenho ambiental da telha em estudo através da identificação de pontos críticos do sistema considerado. Os resultados indicam que os impactos ambientais se devem, principalmente, à utilização de gás natural na etapa de cozedura e, que a fase de produção e/ou fabrico de telha é a que salienta maiores preocupações do ponto vista ambiental, pelo que deverão ser definidas estratégias com o propósito de verificar a aplicabilidade das melhores técnicas disponíveis (MTDs) e de técnicas emergentes, contribuindo assim, para a procura da sustentabilidade dos processos integrantes do presente estudo.

O papel dos Museus nos constructos da experiência global do destino. O caso do Museu da Cerâmica de Caldas da Rainha.

Enquanto actores, desejavelmente interventivos nos Sistemas Turísticos, os Museus, enfrentam desafios de integração dos seus visitantes no Destino em que se inserem. No âmbito desta complexidade e outros contextos aqui não referidos, estes processos de integração do visitante poderão também oscilar entre a integração na temática específica que sustentam, a integração na cultura mais alargada que personificam ou num âmbito ainda mais vasto, poderão contribuir para a integração numa Experiência Global desse mesmo destino. O Museu da Cerâmica investigado, sustenta e incrementa um Imaginário Colectivo assente numa nostalgia cultural que reafirma a cerâmica local como principal veículo da promoção cultural e patrimonial do destino Caldas da Rainha. O presente trabalho perspectiva a possibilidade do Imaginário, em determinados contextos, poder ser equacionado como uma espécie de preconceito cultural que inibe, ou, no mínimo, não contribui para promover experiências culturais mais vastas. No sentido inverso, ganham importância acrescida estratégias a seguir pelos Museus para que as suas funções pedagógicas e emancipadoras sejam mais amplas e interventivas em função de interesses existentes e previamente assumidos pelo Destino.

"Macanas", "tragedias" y "dramas" : Los jueces y su presentación del pasado de terrorismo de Estado en el Juicio por la Verdad de Bahía Blanca, Argentina

El trabajo que aquí se presenta tiene como objetivo indagar en las diferentes manifestaciones sobre el pasado reciente de terrorismo de Estado realizadas por los jueces durante las audiencias de uno de los denominados "Juicios por la Verdad", que se realizó en la ciudad de Bahía Blanca, Argentina entre 1999 y 2000. Se trabajó con una metodología de análisis cualitativo y se utilizaron distintas fuentes de información tales como entrevistas a jueces y abogados de organizaciones de derechos humanos y la totalidad de los videos de las audiencias del Juicio por la Verdad de Bahía Blanca. Como resultado se establece la manera en que estos profesionales del derecho interpretaron el terrorismo de Estado confrontando la posición adoptada por los militares de no brindar información y de reivindicar la "guerra antisubversiva", deslindando a la vez las distintas responsabilidades entre los miembros de las Fuerzas Armadas.

The Neolithic of El Niño cave (Ayna, Albacete) in the Sierra del Segura context

Since its excavation in the summer of 1973, El Niño cave has been considered a key site to understand the process of production economy and pottery technology introduction in South-eastern Iberian Peninsula, and especially to approach how such process could have affected people already settled in the Segura mountains. However, data from El Niño cave was very fragmentary, due to the lack of a broad study of Neolithic occupations of the site. In this paper, we present the analysis of pottery, lithic industry and faunal remains, as well as the existing dates from the site´s Holocene levels. The review of different evidence from the site allows suggesting that El Niño cave would have probably acted as a hunting and shepherding station, being a logistical site of larger places. However, limitations due to the fact that we are dealing with a 40- year-old excavation, prevent specifying how the process of Neolithic introduction in the Segura Mountains occurred.

La metodología utilizada para cumplir con los objetivos se ha basado en la recopilación de datos, considerando una serie de variables morfológicas y tecnológicas, y su procesamiento con el empleo de técnicas estadísticas sencillas.

La estructuración del espacio urbano y productivo de Gadir durante la fase urbana clásica: Cambios y perduraciones

La reafirmación del modelo político-administrativo ciudadano tras la fase arcaica colonial abre una nueva etapa de prosperidad en la antigua fundación tiria. El esplendor de Gadir en el s. V a.C. se refleja en los textos clásicos y en los hallazgos arqueológicos y, sin embargo, nuestros conocimientos sobre el desarrollo histórico de la ciudad de época púnica son muy limitados. El horizonte arcaico comienza a esclarecerse tras los hallazgos del Teatro Cómico que han sacado a la luz los restos de la fundación tiria y, sin embargo, la ciudad posterior continúa siendo una gran incógnita. ¿A qué lugar se traslada la población una vez que se abandona el asentamiento primitivo? ¿Quiénes son los individuos enterrados en los excepcionales sarcófagos antropoides? ¿Qué relación jerárquica existe entre el asentamiento insular y los situados en tierra firme? ¿Qué papel jugó la industria y comercialización de las salazones? Los interrogantes planteados son múltiples y no hacen más que evidenciar la incapacidad del paradigma tradicional para explicar el desarrollo histórico de la Gadir postcolonial y la necesidad de buscar nuevos modelos interpretativos.

Estudo do consumo energético associado ao processo de cozedura na indústria cerâmica

O presente trabalho realizou-se no âmbito do Projeto Galp 20-2020 implementado na empresa Sanindusa, em parceira com a Universidade de Aveiro. Como principal objetivo pretendia-se estudar o consumo de energia durante o processo de cozedura das peças cerâmicas com o intuito de avaliar a viabilidade da substituição do refratário existente na empresa. Uma vez que esta medida implicaria um tempo de retorno do investimento demasiado elevado, optou-se por estudar o consumo de energia associado a uma placa horizontal, de massa unitária, de qualquer tipo de material refratário. Para tal, foi desenvolvido um Modelo Teórico capaz de calcular o calor absorvido por uma placa de refratário ao longo de todo o percurso dentro do Forno Túnel 2, existente na empresa e utilizado no processo de produção das peças cerâmicas. Através deste estudo foi possível concluir que o Modelo Teórico é bastante útil na medida em que permite a criação de vários cenários, através da alteração de diversas variáveis, permitindo conhecer qual o impacto de cada uma no consumo de energia neste equipamento. Como trabalho futuro propõe-se o desenvolvimento do Modelo Teórico apresentado para o estudo da transferência de calor bidimensional. Esta melhoria permitiria analisar o consumo de energia associado a diferentes formas de material refratário utilizado no processo de cozedura de peças cerâmicas (o que não é possível quando se aplica o conceito de transferência de calor unidimensional).

Cerâmica de Santo Antônio do Potengi: entre tradição e modernidade

In the Rio Grande do Norte, the craftsmanship is generating of economy, it involves a significant number of people and is diversified in its raw materials and particular type. As reference of the craft local, the ceramics supplied the primary necessities in the utilitarian domestic servants, acquired piety in the religious figures, were toy in infantile amusements and, finally, gained status of pure ornament. By its historical representation, the district of Santo Antônio do Potengi is considered the most important center of manufacture of craftpottery in the State. The work of the potters continues in that locality anchored between the familiar inheritance and the participation each more influential time of the public politics destined to the sector situation verified for visible alterations in the shape of the pottery from the decade of 1990 with the implantation of a cooperative destined to the collective production. We observe in this passage, that such actions in the measure where they objectify to structuralize conditions ideal to support the artisan making, do not benefit in significant way the social development them craftsmen. It is important not to lose of sight that exists some involved dimensions in this process and that these surpass the common interest for the object and the consequent economic connotation of its commercialization. They are knowledge that imply in the access to raw materials, in the peculiar of the formal aspects and productive methods, in the contextual relations organized to defend the survival of the activity
