Fuel cells are considered one of the most promising ways of converting electrical energy due to its high yield and by using hydrogen (as fuel) which is considered one of the most important source of clean energy for the future. Rare earths doped ceria has been widely investigated as an alternative material for the electrolyte of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) due to its high ionic conductivity at low operating temperatures compared with the traditional electrolytes based on stabilized zirconia. This work investigates the effect of gallium oxide (Gallia) as a sintering aid in Eu doped ceria ceramic electrolytes since this effect has already been investigated for Gd, Sm and Y doped ceria electrolytes. The desired goal with the use of a sintering aid is to reduce the sintering temperature aiming to produce dense ceramics. In this study we investigated the effects on densification, microstructure and ionic conduction caused by different molar fraction of the dopants europium (10, 15 and 20%) and gallium oxide (0.3, 0.6 and 0.9%) in samples sintered at 1300, 1350 and 1450 0 C. Samaria (10 and 20%) doped ceria samples sintered between 1350 and 1450 °C were used as reference. Samples were synthesized using the cation complexation method. The ceramics powders were characterized by XRF, XRD and SEM, while the sintered samples were investigated by its relative density, SEM and impedance spectroscopy. It was showed that gallia contents up to 0.6% act as excellent sintering aids in Eu doped ceria. Above this aid content, gallia addition does not promote significant increase in density of the ceramics. In Ga free samples the larger densification were accomplished with Eu 15% molar, effect expressed in the microstructure with higher grain growth although reduced and surrounded by many open pores. Relative densities greater than 95 % were obtained by sintering between 1300 and 1350 °C against the usual range 1500 - 1600 0 C. Samples containing 10% of Sm and 0.9% of Ga reached 96% of theoretical density by sintering at 1350 0 C for 3h, a gain compared to 97% achieved with 20% of Sm and 1% of Ga co-doped cerias sintered at 1450 0 C for 24 h as described in the literature. It is found that the addition of gallia in the Eu doped ceria has a positive effect on the grain conductivity and a negative one in the grain boundary conductivity resulting in a small decrease in the total conductivity which will not compromise its application as sintering aids in ceria based electrolytes. Typical total conductivity values at 600 and 700 °C, around 10 and 30 mS.cm -1 respectively were reached in this study. Samples with 15% of Eu and 0.9 % of Ga sintered at 1300 and 1350 °C showed relative densities greater than 96% and total conductivity (measured at 700 °C) between 20 and 33 mS.cm -1 . The simultaneous sintering of the electrolyte with the anode is one of the goals of research in materials for SOFCs. The results obtained in this study suggest that dense Eu and Ga co-doped ceria electrolytes with good ionic conductivity can be sintered simultaneously with the anode at temperatures below 1350 °C, the usual temperature for firing porous anode materials

The air part of the cassava is a residue which presents possibilities of being used as a non-wooden raw material in the production of pulp due to the fact that its 81 % of the adult plants air part, besides having high availability and presenting a high concentration of fibers. Studies were developed with the purpose of producing the pulps through the kraft process, which is a mix of the Na2S and NaOH in water heated up to the temperature of 160º C for about 90 minutes to the extraction of lignin. The paper sheets obtained in the practices went through an experimenting process. Studies related to the paper characteristics were accomplished in order to assess its use in the visual communication through printing techniques, silk screen, pictures and others graphical processes. The research results are able to conclude the utilization viability of this material in graphics communication.

I Poliidrossialcanoati (PHA) sono poliesteri completamente biodegradabili, prodotti da microrganismi come fonte di energia e di carbonio per la sintesi di nuovo materiale cellulare, utilizzando come substrato materie prime rinnovabili. Questi poliesteri sono considerati potenziali candidati per la sostituzione delle materie plastiche convenzionali. Tuttavia, i più alti costi di produzione dei PHA in confronto a quelli delle materie plastiche derivanti dal petrolio, rappresentano il principale ostacolo per la parziale sostituzione di questi ultimi con i biopolimeri. Gli alti costi sono principalmente dovuti all'utilizzo di colture microbiche pure (in cui sia presente un solo ceppo batterico) e substrati puri e costosi. Nell'ultimo decennio è stato sviluppato un processo di produzione a tre stadi alternativo e potenzialmente a minor costo, basato sull'utilizzo di colture microbiche miste (Mixed Microbials Culture, MMC) e una varietà di substrati organici a costo contenuto o nullo, quali alcuni rifiuti dell’industria agro-alimentare. Il presente studio si è concentrato sulla prima fase del processo di produzione dei PHA da colture miste, la fermentazione acidogenica, utilizzando siero di latte come fonte di carbonio per produrre acidi organici. In particolare questo lavoro ha avuto come obiettivo quello di studiare come diverse condizioni operative utilizzate nella fase di fermentazione acidogenica possono influenzare la concentrazione e il profilo degli acidi organici prodotti. Sono stati valutati anche gli effetti dei diversi profili degli acidi organici sulla fase di selezione della coltura microbica, in termini di capacità di stoccaggio di PHA e composizione polimerica.

In this work, the treatment of wastewater from the textile industry, containing dyes as Yellow Novacron (YN), Red Remazol BR (RRB) and Blue Novacron CD (NB), and also, the treatment of wastewater from petrochemical industry (produced water) were investigated by anodic oxidation (OA) with platinum anodes supported on titanium (Ti/Pt) and boron-doped diamond (DDB). Definitely, one of the main parameters of this kind of treatment is the type of electrocatalytic material used, since the mechanisms and products of some anodic reactions depend on it. The OA of synthetic effluents containing with RRB, NB and YN were investigated in order to find the best conditions for the removal of color and organic content of the dye. According to the experimental results, the process of OA is suitable for decolorization of wastewaters containing these textile dyes due to electrocatalytic properties of DDB and Pt anodes. Removal of the organic load was more efficient at DDB, in all cases; where the dyes were degraded to aliphatic carboxylic acids at the end of the electrolysis. Energy requirements for the removal of color during OA of solutions of RRB, NB and YN depends mainly on the operating conditions, for example, RRB passes of 3.30 kWh m-3 at 20 mA cm-2 for 4.28 kWh m-3 at 60 mA cm-2 (pH = 1); 15.23 kWh m-3 at 20 mA cm-2 to 24.75 kWh m-3 at 60 mA cm-2 (pH 4.5); 10.80 kWh m-3 at 20 mA cm-2 to 31.5 kWh m-3 at 60 mA cm-2 (pH = 8) (estimated data for volume of treated effluent). On the other hand, in the study of OA of produced water effluent generated by petrochemical industry, galvanostatic electrolysis using DDB led to the complete removal of COD (98%), due to large amounts of hydroxyl radicals and peroxodisulphates generated from the oxidation of water and sulfates in solution, respectively. Thus, the rate of COD removal increases with increasing applied current density (15-60 mAcm-2 ). Moreover, at Pt electrode, approximately 50% removal of the organic load was achieved by applying from 15 to 30 mAcm-2 while 80% of COD removal was achieved for 60 mAcm-2 . Thus, the results obtained in the application of this technology were satisfactory depending on the electrocatalytic materials and operating conditions used for removal of organic load (petrochemical and textile effluents) as well as for the removal of color (in the case of textile effluents). Therefore, the applicability of electrochemical treatment can be considered as a new alternative like pretreatment or treatment of effluents derived from textiles and petrochemical industries.

O manejo do solo afeta a dinâmica das frações granulométricas da matéria orgânica do solo. Objetivou-se com este estudo avaliar o estoque de carbono e nas frações granulométricas da material orgânica do solo (MOS) em áreas submetidas a preparo de área com corte-queima e corte-trituração da vegetação. O experimento foi desenvolvido na Fazenda Escola de Igarapé-Açú (PA). Avaliaram-se os seguintes sistemas: (1) sistema com preparo de área com trituração da vegetação e enriquecimento de capoeira durante o pousio com leguminosas arbóreas; (2) sistema com preparo de área com queima da vegetação e (3) floresta sucessional com mais de 20 anos. As amostras de solo foram coletadas na profundidade de 0-5, com dez amostras compostas (cinco simples) por sistema. Houve perdas significativas de C estocado no solo e nas frações granuloméricas. O manejo de preparo de área afetou a dinâmica do carbono no solo e nas frações da matéria orgânica. O sistema com corte-trituração e enriquecimento de pousio com leguminosas arbóreas estocou mais carbono no solo e nas frações granulométricas em relação ao sistema com queima.
