Estudo da secagem natural e forçada das folhas de Corymbia Citriodora a partir da extração de óleos essenciais

Essential oils are products from plants and can be located in parts or in its entirety. There are several methods for its extraction, where the most suitable depends on the plant or the use of the essence. The main species cultivated in Brazil are the Corymbia citriodora, Eucalyptus globulus and Eucalyptus staigeriana. The Corymbia citriodora is a species that was introduced in Brazil along with other species, with the initial objective of timber production. The yield of oil can range from 0.5 % to 3.0% according to the literature and this can be optimized by reducing the moisture content of the leaves. Studies show that the lower water content in the leaves allows the vapor stream generated in the extractor can drag, more efficiently, the volatiles stored in the cells as compared with the green material. The drying of the sheets is important for companies, so that there is transport of water, increasing the volume of the sheets to distillation and hence a greater volume of oil. The objective of this study was to compare the drying methods, analyzing the income of the essence and determine the best method to optimize the yield of essential oil. Experimental tests were performed natural drying 10, 15 and 20 days and fluidized with times of 60, 90 and 120 minutes and after drying were extractions of the oil. The results obtained for fresh leave yield was 1.20 % and the drying time which showed the highest yield was 15 and 20 days with 2.90 % and 2.70 % yield, respectively, with the lowest level humidity of 16%. The yields obtained in fluidized bed drying did not change as the natural drying to between 1.64% and 1.7%. It is concluded that the decreased level of the sheets increases the yield of oil and the temperature in the fluidized bed is essential for the removal of water from the leaves necessary to increase the yield

Projeto de mapeamento do lead time de uma empresa multinacional do ramo sucroalcooleira: estudo de caso

Facing the competitive current market, increases the growing managerial commitment to minimize the frequent occurrence of service failures that characterized the past. Given the fact that the supply of a product in the correct location and on time, undamaged and correctly billed market requirement becomes framed the present work. Based on a case study, supported in parallel bibliographical references in the literature in a company of sugar and alcohol sector, the survey aims to measure and evaluate the real-time delivery from suppliers in order to ensure the best level of service to the company in question by suppliers, by reducing idle time of delivery, since the control system does not supply the pre-established and / or observed above, thus obtaining a better management and supply of replacement material. To assist the work, developed a project in the company in question in order to analyze and identify applications of concepts of lead time along the supply chain through an exploratory study in order to provide a beneficial outcome to the company through monitoring and performance of its suppliers, which will enable an aid to future decision-making

Avaliação da citotoxicidade de extratos, frações e substâncias puras de Pterogyne nitens em Trypanosoma cruzi e em macrófagos

A atividade biológica de extratos, frações e substâncias puras de Pterogyne nitens foi avaliada em formas epimastigotas das cepas Y e Bolívia de Trypanosoma cruzi, e a citotoxicidade das substâncias com potente atividade tripanocida foi testada em macrófagos murinos pelo método colorimétrico de redução do sal 3-(4,5-dimetiltiazol-2-il)-2-5-difeniltetrazólio (MTT) a formazana, um produto colorido. As mesmas amostras foram também avaliadas quanto a um possível sinergismo com o fármaco benzonidazol. Foram consideradas substâncias ativas contra o parasito: nitensidinas A, D, E e ácido cafeico, com concentrações inibitórias (CI50) inferiores às do benzonidazol (9,01 µg/mL para cepa Y e 25,00 µg/mL para cepa Bolívia). Essas substâncias foram avaliadas quanto a sua citotoxicidade em macrófagos de camundongos isogênicos Balb/c e C57/Black não infectados utilizando-se o mesmo método colorimétrico. Além disso, essas mesmas substâncias foram analisadas em diferentes tempos: 2, 6, 24, 48 e 72 horas, a fim de detectar-se o seu tempo mínimo de ação nos parasitos que foram então observados quanto à sua morfologia através de microscopia de contraste de fase. Os resultados indicam que não há toxicidade seletiva, ou seja, as moléculas se mostraram tóxicas tanto para as cepas testadas do parasito, quanto para macrófagos murinos das linhagens utilizadas. Modificações nas estruturas químicas podem ser sugeridas para que as substâncias continuem ativas contra Trypanosoma cruzi e se tornem menos tóxicas para células de mamíferos

As relações públicas e a gestão da comunicação integrada em tempos de crise: uma análise sobre o caso Ades no Facebook

This paper aims to understand so that organizations in times of crisis - exposed to social media, especially Facebook - they conceive strategies to minimize any factors that shake with your credibility, image and reputation. There for, the case study on the crisis experienced by Ades brand in March 2013 was chosen. The methodology of the work consists of bibliographic research and analytical as well as the presentation and case study, covering the concepts of Marketing, Public Relations, Social Media, Reputation Management and Image, Branding and Integrated Communication. This work was divided into four chapters that present the management of communication in the digital age, the presentation of the global Unilever brand and it brand Ades; exposure to the crisis and its repercussion and an analysis of the case under the stance of public relations, in this order

Estudo de tempos e temperaturas de sinterização na obtenção da liga NiTi por metalurgia do pó

The nickel-titanium alloys are very attractive and so it is widely used in industry, engineering applications in general and also in biomedical and dental applications. Besides showing the shape of memory effect, biocompatibility and superelastic, the alloy commercially known as Nitinol, has excellent mechanical properties. Most devices used in Brazil have been produced nationally, but using imported material is also necessary, which shows the need of produce the alloy nationally. In this study we have investigated the influence of sintering temperatures and times to obtain nickel-titanium alloys by powder metallurgy alloys and the characterization of the precipitated intermetallic phases by using the post-mix of elemental nickel and titanium in proportion of 49.5% Ti - 50.5% Ni. The samples were sintered at 930ºC for periods of 30, 40 and 50 hours and were characterized by optical microscopy using metallography and x-ray diffraction. The results of the study show that the 50 hours sintering time was the most suitable time for obtaining the alloy, observing a low volume of precipitated intermetallic phases and absence of Ni and Ti residuals
