Esta dissertação foi desenvolvida tendo como objetivo principal quantificar e qualificar a produção dos Resíduos de Construção e Demolição (RCD) na Região Autónoma da Madeira (RAM). Estes resíduos são provenientes de atividades de construção civil, nomeadamente de obras de construção, reconstrução, ampliação, alteração, conservação e demolição e da derrocada de edificações. Os RCD devem ser, sempre que possível, reduzidos, reutilizados e/ou reciclados (3 R’s). Caso não seja exequível a aplicação direta em obra de um dos 3 R’s, estes deverão ser encaminhados para um operador de gestão licenciado com o intuito de os valorizar e/ou eliminar. Uma das opções mais usuais de eliminação de resíduos na RAM é a deposição legal em aterro. No entanto, ainda há resíduos que têm como destino a deposição não controlada, causando a degradação geral do ambiente da Região. Neste trabalho foram identificados os vários operadores de gestão de resíduos presentes na Região Autónoma da Madeira e quais os destinos finais de cada resíduo, classificado por código de acordo com a Lista Europeia de Resíduos (LER), segundo a Portaria n.º209/2004, de 3 de março. A informação da quantidade dos resíduos encaminhados para os operadores licenciados é transmitida, anualmente, à Direção Regional do Ordenamento do Território e Ambiente (DROTA), sendo possível determinar a tipologia e a quantidade de resíduos recebidos com respetivo destino final. Foi analisada bibliografia nacional e internacional sobre RCD com o objetivo de selecionar indicadores, em kg/m2 (quantidade de resíduos produzidos por área bruta de construção/demolição), mais ajustados às caraterísticas do edificado regional e respetivos processos construtivos. Da comparação entre os valores estimados de RCD produzidos com a quantidade de resíduos recebidos pelos operadores licenciados na RAM, foi possível estimar as quantidades recicladas e reutilizadas em obra e/ou depositadas ilegalmente. O resíduo estudado mais produzido foi o referente ao código LER 170107. Foi ainda, estimado um intervalo de produção total de RCD para a RAM, situado entre 93 e 507 kg/ano/habitante.

Nas últimas décadas temos assistido a um crescimento da produção de resíduos de construção e demolição. Surge então a necessidade de fazer uma gestão consciente destes resíduos reintroduzindo-os quando possível, no ciclo de vida de novas construções, provocando uma redução quer das zonas de aterro quer da abertura de novas zonas de extração de inertes as quais, provocam um elevado impacto ambiental afetando a biodiversidade existente nessas zonas. Com esta intenção, o presente trabalho centra-se na temática do betão com agregados reciclados e pretende contribuir para o seu conhecimento, analisando as características quer dos agregados reciclados quer do betão com eles confecionado, seguindo normas e diretrizes recomendadas por diferentes especificações um pouco por todo o mundo. Ainda no mesmo contexto o estudo pretende conhecer o destino (eliminação, aterro, valorização, etc.) dado aos RCD procedentes de betão na Região Autónoma da Madeira. A análise da bibliografia existente demonstra perdas nas características destes betões reciclados quando comparados com betões convencionais, isto sem dúvida devido principalmente à quantidade de pasta de cimento aderido presente na composição do agregado reciclado, a qual afeta direta e indiretamente a maioria das propriedades quer do agregado reciclado quer do betão com eles confecionado. Foi recolhida informação que permite caracterizar o sector da construção civil, fazendo o diagnóstico do estado atual da gestão dos resíduos de construção e demolição que é feita pelas empresas de construção sediadas na RAM, mais concretamente a gestão dos resíduos de betão e a reutilização e reciclagem dos mesmos.

Leachates are effluent produced by decomposition of solid waste, they have complex composition and can be highly toxic. Therefore such percolated liquid should be collected and treated properly to avoid environmental contamination of soil and of water bodies. The objective of this study was to evaluate the toxicity through ecotoxicological tests with Ceriodaphnia dubia (Cladocera - Crustacea) of percolated liquids generated in two different systems of municipal solid waste (MSW) disposal in the city of Natal/ RN: A Sanitary Landfill in the Metropolitan Region of Natal/ RN, and in a dump off area. Furthermore, it was evaluated the possible contamination of the underground water of the dump off area. Two monthly samples were taken at four points between the months of May/2009 and January/2010. The Point "A" corresponds to the end of the pond leachate treatment in ASRMN; The Point "B" corresponds to a containment pond at the dump. The Point "C" is an area near one of the cells of the dump off area where the leachate outcrops; The Point "D" stands for an underground water well at the area. The last point, called "E" was sampled only once and corresponds to the slurry produced by temporary accumulation of solid waste in the open area of the dump. The ecotoxicological tests, acute and chronic, followed the ABNT 13373/2005 rules, with some modifications. The samples were characterized by measuring the pH number, the dissolved oxygen (DO), the salinity, BOD5, COD, Cd, Cu, Pb, Cr, Fe, Mg, Ni, and Zn. At Point A, the average number of EC50-48h ranged between 1.0% and 2.77% (v/v), showing a high toxicity of the leachate to C.dubia in all months. To this point, positive correlations were found between the EC50- 48 with precipitation. Negative correlations were found between the EC50- 48h with salinity. At point B there was no response of the acute exposure of organisms to the test samples. At point C the EC50-48h ranged from 17.68% to 35.36% in just two months of the five ones analyzed, not correlated meaning. Point D, the EC50-48h level ranged between 12.31% and 71.27%, showed a negative correlation with, only, precipitation. Although it was observed toxicity of underground water in the Landfill Area, there was no evidence of water contamination by leachate, however, due to the toxic character of this water, additional tests should be conducted to confirm the quality of water that is used for human supply. At point E there was no acute toxicity. These results support the dangers of inappropriate disposal of MSW to water bodies due to the high toxicity of the leachate produced highlighting the necessity of places of safe confinement and a treatment system more effective to it

The WTP produce many kinds of residue on your treatment stages, but the sludge is the more problematic from the final disposition point view. The actual rate of residue production deriving from technological evolution and the crescent population needs prevents the subtle equilibrium generation between consumption and recycling/reuse, creating problems of pollution resulting from inappropriate management of residues. Thus, is necessary achieve a new equilibrium between the grow from raw materials and energy and the residue generation. This equilibrium should be achieved by technical and economic feasibility of environmental supported models through recycling and reuse. The red ceramic industry stand out in residue absorption question as raw material due their clay mass heterogeneity, constituted by clay minerals and non-clay minerals with wide mineralogical variation, allowing residue inclusion which act like plastic or non-plastic materials, contributing to retain heavy metals contained in residues in the vitreous mass formed during the burning of the ceramic bodies. This work propose the study of the influence of incorporation of 25 wt.% sludge from wastewater treatment plant, according preliminary results, in the mass to produce ceramic bodies. The raw materials was characterized through chemical composition analyses by XRF, mineralogical analyses by XRD, thermal analyses by TG and DTA, Atterberg limits and thermodilatometry. Subsequently was composed the mass with 75 wt.% of clay and 25 wt.% of dried wastewater sludge from UFRN WWTP. Samples with 6,0 x 2,0 x 0,5 cm was produced with unidirectional compacting under pressure of 20MPa and burned in temperatures between 950 and 1,200ºC. After fired, the ceramic bodies have been submitted to physical and mechanical analyses through the measure of firing shrinkage, water absorption, density, apparent porosity and flexural strength; crystallographic analyses through XRD and microstructure analyses by SEM. The technological properties obtained was satisfactory to production of roof tiles with 25 wt.% at 1,200 ºC, but the production of others products at lower temperatures was not feasible

The low tenacity presented by the Portland cement pastes used in the oil wells cementation has been motivating several researches with attention focused on alternative materials. Additives have been developed to generate flexible pastes with mechanical resistance capable to support the expansions and retractions of the metallic covering of the wells that submit to the steam injection, technique very used to increase the recovery factor in oil reservoirs with high viscosity. A fresh paste with inadequate rheological behavior may commit the cementation process seriously, involving flaws that affect the performance of the paste substantially in the hardened state. This work proposes the elaboration and the rheological analysis of Portland cement pastes with addition of residues of rubber tire in several proportions, with the aim of minimizing the damages provoked in the hem cementing of these wells. By thermogravimetric analysis, the particles of eraser that go by the sieve of 0,5mm (35 mesh) opening and treated superficially with NaOH solution of 1 mol/L presented appropriate thermal resistance for wells that submit to thermal cyclic. The evaluation of the study based on the results of the rheological analysis of the pastes, complemented by the mechanical analysis, thickening, stability, tenor of free water and filtrate loss, being used as parameter a paste reference, without rubber addition. The results showed satisfactory rheology, passive of few corrections; considerable loss of mechanical resistance (traction and compression), compensated by earnings of tenacity, however with established limits for its application in oil wells; satisfactory stability, free water and thickening time
