Electrochemical oxidation of Kraft lignin for the production of value-added chemicals on Ni and Co electrocatalysts

La vanillina è un’aldeide aromatica importante da un punto di vista industriale, in quanto viene ampiamente utilizzata dall’industria alimentare, cosmetica e farmaceutica. Attualmente, la vanillina da biomasse viene ottenuta attraverso l’ossidazione catalitica della lignina. Un’alternativa è rappresentata dall’ossidazione elettro-catalitica, un processo che sta riscuotendo un notevole interesse, perché permette di lavorare in condizioni blande. L’obiettivo di questo lavoro è stato quello di sintetizzare elettro-catalizzatori che favoriscano la depolimerizzazione della lignina Kraft per ottenere selettivamente vanillina. Sono state utilizzate schiume di Ni a cella aperta, tal quali e elettro-depositate con idrossidi di Ni-Co e Co. La formazione degli osso-idrossidi dei metalli, sulla superficie delle schiume, e la OER contribuiscono all’elettro-ossidazione della lignina, mentre la resa di vanillina dipende sia dal catalizzatore che dalle condizioni di reazione (potenziale applicato e tempo di reazione). La resa maggiore di vanillina è stata ottenuta applicando 0.6 V vs SCE con un tempo di reazione di un’ora e utilizzando la schiuma di Ni bare come catalizzatore. Indipendentemente dal tipo di catalizzatore usato, aumentando il tempo di reazione la resa di vanillina diminuisce, probabilmente a causa delle reazioni di ri-condensazione e ossidazione successiva dei prodotti che coinvolgono la vanillina stessa. La presenza di idrossidi di Ni-Co e Co sulla schiuma di Ni non ne migliora l’attività catalitica. La schiuma Co/Ni esibisce un’elevata carica accumulata e un’alta conversione, probabilmente dovuto alle reazioni parassite che sfavoriscono l’accumulo di vanillina. Le schiume Ni-Co/Ni invece, presentando sia una resa in vanillina intermedia tra le altre due ma associata ad una carica accumulata molto bassa. Un risultato incoraggiante per possibili sviluppi futuri.

Electrochemical oxidation of Kraft and Dealkaline lignin to produce value-added chemicals on Nickel electrocatalysts

One of the most important scientific and environmental issues is reducing global dependence on fossil sources and one of the solutions is to use biomass as feedstock. In particular, the use of lignocellulosic biomass to obtain molecules with considerable commercial importance is gaining more and more interest. Lignin, the most recalcitrant part of lignocellulosic biomass, is a valuable source of sustainable and renewable aromatic molecules, currently produced from petrochemical processes. Vanillin, one of the most important aromatic aldehydes on an industrial level, can be obtained through catalytic lignin oxidation. An alternative to the conventional catalytic oxidation process is the electro-catalytic process, which can be carried out at ambient temperature and pressure, using water as solvent, and it can be considered as a renewable energy storage. In this thesis, the electrocatalytic oxidation of Kraft and Dealkaline lignin in NaOH was investigated over Ni foam catalysts. The effect of the reaction parameters (i.e. time, applied potential, lignin concentration, NaOH concentration, and temperature) on the yields of vanillin and other valuable products was evaluated. After the screening of the reaction conditions, a systematic study of the contribution of the homogeneous reaction (lignin depolymerization due to the basic solvent) to the yield of the product was accomplished. Finally, considering the obtained results, an alternative reaction procedure was proposed.

Otimização do descascamento químico de raízes do yacon (Polymnia sonchifolia Poepp.)

A full factorial design 2³ was used to evaluate the effect of process variables in chemical peeling of yacon roots, cultivated in Curitiba, State of Paraná. Eleven treatments, with three central points, were done in which they had been evaluated at three different levels of sodium hydroxide solution, % (g/100 mL) [6, 10, 14], temperature of the same solution, °C [70, 80, 90], and residence time in the sodium hydroxide solution, minutes [2, 4, 6]. All the studied variables had affected significantly (p<0.05) the yield of yacon roots subjected to chemical peeling. The variable that most affected the yield was the time of permanence in the sodium hydroxide solution. The mathematical model obtained for the yield (%) was good with R² aj = 0.8497, and non significant lack of fit (p=0.9312).Therefore, the model can be used for predictive purposes. In the central point a satisfactory yield (84% to 87%) with a high percentage of removed peel was obtained (96% to 98%) indicating that the treatment with 10% of sodium hydroxide solution, temperature of 80º C per 4 minutes can be used in the chemical peeling of yacon roots.

CROMATOGRAFIA DE AFINIDADE COM CORANTE RED A versus TROCA IÔNICA-PERMEABILIDADE EM GEL: COMPARAÇÃO DA PRATICIDADE NA PURIFICAÇÃO DE ENTEROTOXINA ESTAFILOCÓCICA A

Culture supernatant of Staphylococcus aureus 722 in 3% triptone plus 1% yeast extract was used for EEA purification, proceeding comparison between dye ligand Red A affinity chromatography and classic chromatography. The capture of SEA with Amberlite CG-50 allowed rapid enterotoxin concentration from the culture supernatant. However, the ratio of 15 mg of the resin to a total of 150 mg of the toxin satured the resin, giving only 10 to 30% of SEA recuperation from the supernatant. The elution of concentrated material throught the Red A column resulted in a recovery of 60,87% of the toxin, and required 76 hours, indicating advantage on classic chromatography. Ion exchange column plus gel filtration recovered only 6,5 % of the SEA, and required 114 hours to conclude the procedure. The eletrophoresis of purified SEA indicated high grade of toxin obtained from Red A column, with 90 % of purity, compared to 60 % of classic column.

O aluno portador de visão subnormal na escola regular: desafio para o professor?

Purpose:1) To check self-knowledge and needs for orientation among regular class teachers working with low vision students; 2) To gather information to assist the training on visual deficiency of regular class teachers. Methods: A survey was conducted for the academic year of 1999 among those teachers working in public schools, Campinas/SP/Brazil, of which 11 were municipal and 9 state schools, respectively 79.0% and 90.0% of these schools. A self-administered questionnaire was used as data collection instrument. Results: The sample was composed of 50 teachers with a regular class experience averaging 20 years. Most of them, 94.0%, said that they had no specific preparation in the area of low vision. Only 18 teachers declared to have received some kind of information/orientation in order to work with their low vision students and of those only 15 teachers mentioned the kind of orientation received. The whole group of 50 declared interest in receiving information. From the information/orientation requested 66.0% mentioned extended working class materials, 50.0% visual performance and eye disease of their students and 46.0% visual acuity/visual field. Conclusion: It was detected that teachers of regular classes received none or little information about their low vision students but demonstrated interest in its obtention. It was also shown that those teachers are not prepared to work with visually impaired children.
