Utilização do defletómetro de impacto ligeiro, do GeoGauge e do densímetro elétrico para o controlo in situ da qualidade de materiais em obras de pavimentação rodoviária

A presente dissertação procura contribuir para avaliar a utilidade de três equipamentos ligeiros na caracterização in situ de materiais de pavimentação de infraestruturas de transporte. Aquele tipo de avaliação visa o controlo de qualidade dos materiais durante o processo construtivo, embora possa contribuir também para estimar o comportamento previsível dos materiais utilizados. O estudo centrou-se principalmente na utilização do Defletómetro de Impacto Ligeiro (DIL), do GeoGauge (GG) e do Densímetro Elétrico (DE). No entanto, realizaramse complementarmente ensaios com o Cone de Penetração Dinâmica (CPD), com o Gamadensímetro (GD) e com o Indicador de Qualidade de Pavimentos (IQP). O GG e o DIL foram concebidos com o objetivo de medirem o módulo de deformabilidade de camadas constituídas por solo ou por materiais granulares. O DE destina-se a avaliar a qualidade da compactação de camadas de solo. Numa fase inicial do trabalho, fez-se uma recolha bibliográfica sobre as características, os princípios de funcionamento e o modo operatório de cada um dos equipamentos, de modo a apoiar o estudo de caso que se realizou mais tarde no âmbito do trabalho. O estudo bibliográfico centrou-se ainda na procura dos parâmetros que é possível medir com cada um dos equipamentos estudados, bem como na procura de relações entre aqueles parâmetros. Para a realização da campanha de ensaios previamente estabelecida, o estudo incluiu a construção de um modelo físico de pavimento. O pavimento construído, com dimensões em planta da ordem de 2 1,5 m2, é constituído por duas estruturas diferentes, assentes sobre a mesma fundação, com uma espessura total de 29 cm: uma formada por uma camada granular e uma camada betuminosa; a outra constituída por uma camada de solo estabilizado com cimento e uma camada betuminosa. Os materiais constituintes do modelo foram caracterizados em laboratório e/ou in situ com recurso a ensaios convencionais. Nalguns casos recorreu-se às fichas de produto para recolher as propriedades necessárias. Na fundação estudou-se a utilização do DIL, do GG e do DE. Adicionalmente, avaliou-se o solo, com o CPD e com o GD. Nas camadas granular e de solo estabilizado estudou-se a utilização do DIL, do GG e do GD. Na camada betuminosa efetuaram-se ensaios com o DIL e com o IQP. Em cada um dos materiais colocados foi estudada a utilização dos equipamentos individualmente, de modo a obter os parâmetros caracterizadores dos materiais: o CBR (com o CPD), o módulo de deformabilidade (com o DIL, o GG e o CPD), a baridade seca e o teor em água (com o GD e o DE), a baridade (com o IQP). Quando se revelou útil, compararam-se resultados obtidos com os diferentes equipamentos para cada um dos materiais. Em termos gerais, pode afirmar-se que a utilização dos equipamentos testados pode contribuir de forma útil para avaliar os materiais in situ. Contudo, foram detetadas fragilidades no processo de caracterização, particularmente no que diz respeito à análise de sistemas multicamada com o DIL. O processo de calibração necessário à obtenção de resultados fiáveis com o DE revelou-se pouco prático. Além disso, o GG permitiu obter resultados com baixa variabilidade, embora geralmente bastante diferentes dos obtidos com o DIL. Os equipamentos complementares estudados neste trabalho mostraram ser úteis na avaliação dos materiais. Em suma, para que o controlo de qualidade seja efetivo, é necessário estabelecer, através de estudos mais alargados, quais os materiais em os equipamentos estudados podem ser utilizados com propriedade, e quais os critérios de aceitação/rejeição dos materiais que devem ser considerados em cada caso.

Qualidade do solo da camada de cobertura final em área de disposição de resíduos no semiárido tropical

The final disposal of municipal solid waste in unsuitable areas without an infrastructure that meets the health measures and environmental protection, coupled with the lack of technical criteria in phase and decommissioning of the dump can promote environmental degradation. Alternatively to minimize the impacts of this activity for the stabilization of the area by isolating the massive waste with implementation of an adequate and finished by a layer of soil for plant growth final cover system. In this context, the present study aimed to evaluate the quality of the final cover in the area of a disabled dump the tropical semi-arid region in order to assist the process of recovery of these areas. The study area is located in the tropical semi-arid region in São João do Sabugi /RN. Soil samples were collected in the dump area and bushland as a benchmark of quality. To which they were subjected to analysis of physical attributes (particle density, bulk density, grain size and porosity), chemical properties (pH, K + , Na+ , Ca2 + , Mg2 + and Al3 + exchangeable, potential acidity, available phosphorus, sum of bases, CEC, base saturation, aluminum saturation, saturation Na + and adsorption ratio sodium, total organic carbon and total nitrogen) and total and soluble concentrations of heavy metals (Mn, Pb, Zn, Cd, Cu, Mo, Co, Cr, Ba and Ni). The differences between physical and chemical soil under native forest and final cover showing reduction of soil quality in the area off to the dump, which hinders the development of native vegetation and the recovery of the area. The absence of superior waterproofing to allow vertical transfer between the solid waste and the final cover promoted enrichment by chemical elements and heavy metals in excess can impair revegetation. Deficiencies found in the construction process of the final cover point to the need for intervention to accelerate the process of stabilization and recovery of the area of the local ecosystem

Avaliação de compatibilidade entre pasta de cimento e fluido de perfuração não-aquoso utilizados em poços petrolíferos

Compatibility testing between a drilling fluid and a cement slurry is one of the steps before an operation of cementing oil wells. This test allows us to evaluate the main effects that contamination of these two fluids may cause the technological properties of a cement paste. The interactions between cement paste and drilling fluid, because its different chemical compositions, may affect the cement hydration reactions, damaging the cementing operation. Thus, we carried out the study of the compatibility of non-aqueous drilling fluid and a cement slurry additives. The preparation procedures of the non-aqueous drilling fluid, the cement paste and completion of compatibility testing were performed as set out by the oil industry standards. In the compatibility test is evaluated rheological properties, thickening time, stability and compressive strength of cement pastes. We also conducted analyzes of scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction of the mixture obtained by the compatibility test to determine the microstructural changes in cement pastes. The compatibility test showed no visual changes in the properties of the cement paste, as phase separation. However, after the addition of nonaqueous drilling fluid to cement slurry there was an increased amount of plastic viscosity, the yield point and gel strength. Among the major causative factors can include: chemical reaction of the components present in the non-aqueous drilling fluid as the primary emulsifier, wetting agent and paraffin oil, with the chemical constituents of the cement. There was a reduction in the compressive strength of the cement paste after mixing with this drilling fluid. Thickening test showed that the oil wetting agent and high salinity of the non-aqueous fluid have accelerating action of the handle of the cement paste time. The stability of the cement paste is impaired to the extent that there is increased contamination of the cement slurry with the nonaqueous fluid. The X-ray diffraction identified the formation of portlandite and calcium silicate in contaminated samples. The scanning electron microscopy confirmed the development of the identified structures in the X-ray diffraction and also found the presence of wells in the cured cement paste. The latter, formed by the emulsion stability of the drilling fluid in the cement paste, corroborate the reduction of mechanical strength. The oil wetting agent component of the non-aqueous drilling fluid, the modified cement hydration processes, mainly affecting the setting time.

Capacidade de carga de misturas de solo laterítico e desbastes de pneus

Government efforts have found some obstacles in achieving a better infrastructure regarding environmental preservation requirements. There is a need to develop new techniques that leave the big exploitation of environmental resources. This study measures the evaluation of the behavior of a composite formed by lateritic soil mix and tire buffings. In this way, a road embankment model was developed to assess the bearing capacity of the composite. This study measured the load capacity of the composites with 0%, 10%, 20% and 40% rubber mixed with the soil, by weight, iron plate loading tests on a simulated embankment in a metal box of 1.40 x 1.40 x 0.80 m. After four compaction layers of the composite, a plate test was performed, and then stress-settlement curves were obtained for the material. The embankments with 20% and 40% rubber content was difficult to compact. There was a significant reduction in the load capacity of the soil-plate system with increasing rubber content. The composite with the lowest loss of bearing capacity in relation to the reference soil was the one with a χ = 10%. In the load capacity tests, another aspect noted was the bearing capacity in terms of CBR. The results also show a gradual decrease in bearing capacity in the composites as with the rubber incorporation content increases. As in the plate load tests, the composite that had the lower bearing capacity loss was also that with 10% content.

Incorporação do resíduo de cascalho de perfuração de poços de petróleo em formulações cerâmicas

During its operations, the oil industry generates a lot of waste, including gravel from drilling. Control of environmental impacts caused by this waste represents a major challenge. Such impacts can be minimized when it is given an appropriate management by being properly treated and properly disposed or recycled. The properties of these materials can be greatly influenced when a waste is added to its composition. This work aims to study the incorporation of gravel waste oil-well drilling in the standard body for production of red ceramic from a ceramic industry in São Gonçalo do Amarante / RN. The success of the incorporation can minimize costs in the production of ceramic pieces and reduce the environmental impacts caused by waste. The raw materials used were collected, characterized, and formulated with the percentages of 0%, 20% and 40% by weight of substitution of residue were synthesized at temperatures of 900, 1.010 and 1.120 °C using 30 minute firing intervals, 1 hour and 30min and 2 hours and 30 minutes, based on a factorial design 2³. Samples were then subjected to the tests of Water Absorption, Linear Retraction Firing, Flexural Rupture Strength, Apparent Porosity and Apparent Specific mass and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) of break section. The results showed that the use of the residue for the manufacture of the ceramic products is possible (tiles, bricks and massive hollow bricks) replacing the clay to 40%, meeting the requirements of the standard and the literature for the technological properties of the final product.

Influência do tempo de adição do policarboxilato em pastas de cimento Portland para cimentação de poços petrolíferos

Cement pastes used in cementing oil wells operations are prepared according to the specific characteristics of each well. The physical properties requested for each folder formulation depend on the temperature and pressure of the well to be cemented. The rheological properties of the pulp are important control parameter for efficiency in transportation and positioning the folder during the cementing operation. One of the main types of additive used for the adjustment of rheological properties of cement pastes is the dispersant additive. This work aims to study the influence of variation of the time of addition of the polycarboxylate (0, 5, 10 and 15 minutes) in cement pastes, considering the initial periods of hydration of cement particles as fundamental point for better performance dispersant additive. Pastes were prepared with a density set at 15.6 lb/gal (1.87 g/cm3) and polycarboxylate concentrations ranging from 0.01 gpc to 0.05 gpc circulation temperature (BHCT) of 51°C and static temperature (BHST) of 76 C. The pastes were characterized from a rheological measurements, volume filtered, thickening time and resistance to compression formulations. Also were carried out tests Diffraction X-ray (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (MEV). The results showed that the addition of policaboxilato after 15 minutes decreased by 70% the values of rheological parameters. According to results of DRX and MEV, the addition of dispersant after 15 minutes did not affect the chemical reactions and subsequent formation of cement hydration products. A study of the economic feasibility to realize the financial benefits of the technique, which can be seen only with the use of the technique in this work to reduce the cost of production of cement paste was carried out, can get up to $ 1015.00 for each folder 100 barrels produced with said formulations.

Estudo da incorporação de cinza e chamote gerado pela cerâmica vermelha ao próprio processo industrial

The ceramics industry generates waste at various stages of that process, defective products, waste from burning solid fuels, among others. This waste is dumped in landfills, garbage dumps or directly on roads, which has a negative environmental impact. This paper presents a study to incorporate the waste of algaroba wood and chamote (scrap pieces of ceramic already sintered), in to the ceramic material for making sealing blocks. The methodological procedures consist in the characterization of chemical and mineralogical residues, raw materials, and physical-mechanical of the formulations of mixes with clay, silt and waste. By pressing test pieces were produced using a pressure of 200 kgf/cm², varying compositions in the range of 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% by weight of residue. The sintering was performed in a muffle furnace, with the temperature levels of 850 ° C, 900 ° C, 950 ° C, 1000 ° C and 1050 ° C. The evaluated physical and mechanical properties were: Water Absorption, Linear Shrinkage Burning, Apparent Porosity, Apparent Density and Mechanical Resistance to Flexion. Analysis was carried out by Scanning Electron Microscopy on fracture surfaces of the specimens. Evaluation of linear shrinkage property drying and firing , water absorption and mechanical resistance to compression of the sealing blocks 5% wood ash residue, sintered at 900 °C hold temperature in the laboratory the products manufactured on an industrial scale. The main results, it was found on the viability of using the residues of algaroba wood and to confer refractory properties of the ceramic product. The main results, it was concluded feasibility of using the ash residues algaroba wood to impart refractory properties to the ceramic product and the residue of chamote, being derived from the own ceramic product not interfere with the properties, when used in a percentage of up to 5%.Since the residue of chamote being derived from the ceramic product itself had no effect on the properties. Studies in the laboratory have shown that the incorporation of up to 5% of these residues may be adopted as an alternative technology to reduce the environmental impact caused by the industrial sector, without compromising the final properties of the material, since the results on an industrial scale showed absorption values 11.66 and 11.74 of water and waste products respectively, within the parameters of NBR - 15,270, since the mechanical strength was 1.25 MPa and 0.94 MPa respectively for products with and without residue, lower than the minimum required by the technical standard that is 1.5 MPa.

Aditivo polimérico derivado de fonte renovável para aplicação em cimento asfáltico de petróleo

This study evaluated the effects of incorporating an additive from an agro-industrial residue, after some chemical modification reactions, to petroleum asphalt cement (CAP) through the polymerization reaction of a viscous polyol obtained by bagasse biomass oxypropylation reaction sugarcane with anhydrides. The polyol is obtained by biomass oxypropylation reaction with propylene oxide, the reaction was performed in an autoclave sealed with pressure and temperature control using 25 mL of OP for every 5 grams of biomass 200°C, which time reaction was two hours. The reaction is revealed by varying the system pressure, initially at atmospheric pressure to reach a maximum pressure value and its subsequent return to atmospheric pressure. For the choice of the most suitable reaction time for polymerization of the polyol with pyromellitic anhydride, the reaction was also conducted in an autoclave sealed with temperature controller (150 ° C) using 20 g of polyol, 1 g of sodium acetate (catalyst) and 8 g of pyromellitic anhydride with the times 30 and 60 minutes. The polymerized materials with different times were characterized by determining the relative viscosity and percentage content of extractable in cyclohexane / ethanol. Given the results with the polymerized material 30 minutes showed the lowest percentage content of extractives and an increased viscosity relative indicating that this time is highlighted with respect to time 60 minutes, because the material is possibly in the form of a crosslinked polymer. Given the choice of time of 30 minutes other polymerization reactions were performed with various anhydrides and other conditions employed different proportions by mass of polyol anhydrides we were referred to as condition I (20 g anhydride and 8 g of polyol), II (20 g anhydride and 20 g of polyol) and III (8 g anhydride and 20 g of polyol). The FTIR spectra of polymeric materials with different polymerization conditions used to prove the occurrence of chemical modification due to the appearance of a characteristic band ester groups (1750 cm-1) present in the polymerized material. He chose to work with the condition III, as is the condition which employs a larger amount of polyol, and even with the smaller amount of anhydride used FTIR spectra revealed that the polymerization reaction was performed. Among the various anhydrides (phthalic, maleic and pyromellitic) of the different conditions used that stood out before the solubility test with solvents analyzed was polymerized material with pyromellitic anhydride because the polymerized material likely in the form of a crosslinked polymer because it was insoluble or poorly soluble in the solvents tested. Polymerization of the polyol with pyromellitic anhydride using condition III, that is, BCPP30, CSPP30, PCPP30 e BCPPG30, provided an increase in thermal stability relative to material in the form of polyol. Applicability tests concerning the incorporation of 16% m / m BCPP30, CSPP30, PCPP30 e BCPPG30 additive in relation to the mass of 600 g CAP showed through characterization tests used, softening point, elastic recovery and marshall dosage, it is possible to use BCPP30 as an additive the conventional CAP, because even with the incorporation of this new additive modified CAP met the specifications of the appropriate standard.

Propriedades antioxidantes de constituintes fenólicos de macroalgas marinhas

Desde tempos remotos que as macroalgas marinhas são utilizadas por comunidades humanas, nomeadamente as orientais, como parte importante da sua dieta alimentar. A composição química das diferentes macroalgas marinhas (algas castanhas – Phaeophyta, algas vermelhas – Rhodophyta e algas verdes – Chlorophyta) confirma que além de terem um valor nutricional satisfatório podem ser uma fonte muito interessante de compostos bioativos como, por exemplo, os compostos fenólicos. Quimicamente os compostos fenólicos caracterizam-se por apresentarem um ou mais grupos hidroxilo ligados a um anel aromático. Estes compostos englobam desde moléculas simples até moléculas poliméricas de grandes dimensões. A maioria dos compostos fenólicos apresenta atividade antioxidante. O interesse pelo estudo de metabolitos secundários das macroalgas com propriedades antioxidantes surgiu, numa primeira fase, como uma tentativa de encontrar substitutos para os antioxidantes sintéticos usados como aditivos alimentares (nomeadamente o BHA e o BHT) que demonstravam possuir efeitos carcinogénicos. No entanto, rapidamente a comunidade científica reconheceu que a aplicação de novos compostos fenólicos naturais é muito mais vasta. Sabe-se hoje que é crucial para a promoção da saúde de um indivíduo que se verifique a manutenção do equilíbrio entre a produção de radicais livres e as respetivas defesas antioxidantes. Quando esse equilíbrio se altera e ocorre uma acumulação de radicais livres no organismo, este entra em stress oxidativo, situação que pode conduzir a danos dos lípidos celulares, proteínas e ácidos nucleicos, o que favorece o aparecimento de diversas doenças e acelera o envelhecimento celular. Assim, atualmente existe um crescente interesse por parte da indústria farmacêutica e da indústria da cosmética no estudo dos compostos fenólicos isolados de macroalgas. De entre estes, destacam-se os florotaninos, que para além das propriedades antioxidantes têm demonstrado possuir outras atividades farmacológicas importantes, tais como atividade antibacteriana, anti-viral, antineoplásica, anti-hipertensora e anti-diabética. Este trabalho consiste numa revisão bibliográfica sobre os diversos compostos fenólicos com atividade antioxidante isolados de macroalgas marinhas e que demonstraram vantagens na sua incorporação, quer em formulações cosméticas, quer em medicamentos, debatendo as suas ações farmacológicas, mecanismos de ação e possíveis aplicações futuras.
