Viabilidade da Disposição de Lodo Secundário da Ete de Araraquara (SP) em Argissolo Vermelho

No tratamento de águas residuárias o acúmulo de materiais sólidos (lodo) é comumente verificado ao final dos processos, cuja disposição apresenta-se como problemática e dispendiosa. Dentre as formas de reaproveitamento do lodo ou biossólido gerado nas estações de tratamento de esgotos (ETEs), destaca-se a aplicação agrícola, permitindo a reciclagem de matéria orgânica e nutrientes ao meio. Baseando-se nos potenciais impactos associados ao descarte do biossólido em solos, os efeitos da aplicação do lodo da ETE do Município de Araraquara (SP) em solo do tipo argissolo vermelho foram avaliados. Desta forma, tanques (lisímetros) com o solo estudado foram construídos e doses distintas de lodo – 500 e 1500 gramas de sólidos totais (ST) por m2 – foram aplicadas em cada tanque. Os lisímetros ficaram expostos às condições ambientes e foram monitorados por aproximadamente quatro meses. Cinco aplicações acumulativas de lodo foram realizadas durante 90 dias. As águas de chuva infiltradas nos tanques foram analisadas para detecção de metais e patogenicidade. A composição química de gramíneas eventualmente germinadas nos tanques também foi analisada para detecção de metais e seu poder nutricional. As análises indicaram a ausência de organismos patogênicos nas águas percoladas. Quanto aos teores de metais na água, os valores obtidos foram superiores ao limite de detecção do equipamento utilizado e inferiores aos limites máximos permitidos para classificação de águas doces classe I. Além disso, um acréscimo na fertilidade do solo ao final das aplicações foi observado. Assim, verificou-se que o lodo amostrado apresenta potencial para reuso agrícola, ressaltando-se a necessidade da aplicação das doses recomendadas pela legislação vigente e do monitoramento periódico das areas aplicadas.

Um estudo sobre os eixos comerciais da cidade de Araraquara - SP

O presente estudo objetivou identificar e mapear os eixos comerciais da cidade de Araraquara - SP, por meio do levantamento do uso do solo, realizado por alunos do curso de Ciências Sociais - FCL - UNESP - CAr nos anos de 1994 e 1995. O trabalho resultou na elaboração de mapas de uso do solo de 13 eixos comerciais da cidade (vias principais e de interior de bairros), identificando o tipo de uso existente lote a lote, bem como a atividade e o estado de conservação dos prédios.

Subsídios para o gerenciamento de resíduos de serviços de saúde em municípios de médio porte: estudo de caso de Araraquara - SP

The Health Care Wastes (HCW) present serious risks to health and to the environment, if incorrectly managed, because in addition to the presence of pathogenic agents, the may pollute the soil and the water. Thus, a study was performed aiming at diagnosing the HCW management in Araraquara (SP), identifying the difficulties of the agents (municipal gestors and managers of institutions which generate this wastes) in implanting the HCW management Plan (HCWMP) proposed by ANVISA, in order to subside the HCWMP implantation. The methodology was based on question applications in health centers selected to be the samples, and on quantitative data related to the phases of Treatment and Final Disposal, provided by DAAE. As a result, it was observed that a great part of the interviewed centers managed these wastes according to norm RDC no 306/ 2004 of ANVISA. However, only 24% of the interviewed centers knew about this norm, and only 22% of them had the HCWMP. The difficulties in managing the HCW concentrated in the correct segregation of theses wastes in the generation source. The large number of people involved in this phase suggests the causes of the difficulties.

A educação ambiental nos projetos político-pedagógicos das escolas municipais de ensino fundamental da cidade de Araraquara/SP

In this paper, we aim at describing and assessing Environmental Education in Pedagogical Policy Projects (PPP) drawn by eight elementary schools belonging to the city school network of the city of Araraquara, in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. A framework was designed to detail references to topics and activities related to the environment contained in the respective PPP. Next, the information obtained was recorded under two categories: a) content and activities, and b) theoretical background. It was found that, although seven out of the eight PPP studied pointed to work towards environment-related topics, they do not enable the theoretical and methodological grounds behind their programmed actions be identified.

Impacto da saúde bucal na qualidade de vida de pacientes maiores de 50 anos de duas instituições públicas do município de Araraquara-SP

Introduction: Oral health can affect quality of life, and the OHIP-14 index (Oral Health Impact Profile) is useful for evaluating this impact. Objective: to investigate the impact of oral health conditions on the quality of life of patients over  50  years, assessing, initially, the consistency of the short form of the Oral Health Impact Profile index (OHIP-14). Material and method: A cross-sectional study was performed among 149 patients of two public institutions for routine dental (UNESP) and medical practice (Municipal). They were interviewed using the OHIP-14 formulary, assessing its internal consistency (Cronbach´s alpha coefficient) and the OHIP-mean (additive method). The patients were distributed according to sex, age, and education level. The comparisons of interest were made using Student´s t test at a 5% level of significance. Result: A total of consecutive patients (n = 149) participated of this study (87% response rate). Cronbach´s alpha coefficient was 0.78, denoting a good consistency of the OHIP index. The OHIP mean was 4.98. The most prevalently affected OHIP domains were dimensions of physical pain: painful aching (11.40%) and uncomfortable eating foods (21.50%). There was non-significant difference (p > 0.05) between the mean OHIP value in relation to each of gender, age, and education level. Conclusion: The OHIP-14 is a reliable instrument of assessing oral health-related quality of life, and among patients under routine practice, it was found a low impact of oral conditions on their quality of life in the studied institutions (UNESP and Municipal).

Consumo de leite informal na cidade de Araraquara-SP

Brazil is one of the largest milk producers in the world, with an estimated total production of 37 billion liters in 2014. Of this total, 33% is not inspected, being destined for the informal market. Objective: The aim of this study was to collect and analyze data on raw milk consumption in the city of Araraquara (SP, Brazil). Methods: Regular milk consumers were provided with exploratory questionnaires in locations chosen for convenience. The reproducibility of each question was tested by Kappa statistics. Associations of interest were 2 detected by the chi-squared (χ ) or Fisher's exact test. Statistical significance was established when p0.05. Results: Most of the volunteers (97.6%) reported consuming milk daily, the type of milk chosen most, mainly for ease of purchase, being boxed UHT. Regarding raw milk, 15.3% of volunteers said they consume it, the greatest consumption being observed among subjects with complete secondary or higher education. The majority of the participants reported knowing of the possibility of diseases being transmitted by unprocessed milk. Most respondents pointed to "flavor" as the main reason for consumption. Only 15.3% reported that someone in their house had become ill from drinking milk, and only 4.1% attributed this to the ingestion of raw milk. Conclusion: It was found that 15.3% of consumers drink raw milk in the city of Araraquara, which is more than the expected proportion in a medium sized city located in the state of São Paulo.
