O sistema aquífero Barreiras na região de Parnamirim, RN: uso das águas e potencialidades

The study area is within the Pirangi River Basin, eastern sector of Rio Grande do Norte state, where is located of the Parnamirim city. It has an area of approximately 370 km². Urbanization has developed much fast without an appropriate infrastructure, mainly by the lack of sewage systems, with risks of contamination of groundwater that may cause serious damage to the health of the population. The Barreiras Aquifer System groundwater in the area represents the main source of water supply for urban and rural populations. The use of groundwater occurs without adequate planning and therefore, important recharge areas are being occupied. This study was conducted to quantify the use and evaluation of the potential of groundwater, in order to increase good water quality supply and lower risks of being affected by polluting activities. With these objectives, the following activities were carried out: 268 points of water have been registered; characterization of the lithological, thickness and hydrogeological structure of the Barreiras aquifer, based on the correlation of well logs; and evaluation of hydrodynamic parameters of the aquifer, from the interpretation of results well pumping tests. It was found that the saturated thickness increases from west to east towards the sea, with values ranging from 15,47-56,5 m with an average of 32,45 m. The hydrodynamic parameters using Cooper-Jacob method were: average transmissivity of 5,9x10-3 m²/s and average hydraulic conductivity 2,82x10-4 m/s. The effective porosity is of 15%, obtained by applying Biecinski equation. The potentiometric map shows the main direction of groundwater flow, from west to east, and identifies the recharge areas corresponding to the region of the tablelands of the "Barreiras". The river valleys refer to the discharge areas of the aquifer system. The Recharge was estimated at 253 mm/year, which corresponds to the 16.4% rate of infiltration.

Análise tribo-termodinâmica da aplicação de nanopartículas de Al2O3 como aditivo lubrificante em compressor hermético de refrigeração

The thermodynamic performance of a refrigeration system can be improved by reducing the compression work by a particular technique for a specific heat removal rate. This study examines the effect of small concentrations of Al2O3 (50 nm) nanoparticles dispersion in the mineral oil based lubricant on the: viscosity, thermal conductivity, and lubrication characteristics as well as the overall performance (based on the Second Law of Thermodynamics) of the refrigerating system using R134a or R600a as refrigerants. The study looked at the influences of variables: i) refrigerant charge (100, 110, 120 and 130 g), ii) rotational speed of the condenser blower (800 and 1100 RPM) and iii) nanoparticle concentration (0.1 and 0.5 g/l) on the system performance based on the Taguchi method in a matrix of L8 trials with the criterion "small irreversibility is better”. They were carried pulldown and cycling tests according to NBR 12866 and NBR 12869, respectively, to evaluate the operational parameters: on-time ratio, cycles per hour, suction and discharge pressures, oil sump temperature, evaporation and condensation temperatures, energy consumption at the set-point, total energy consumption and compressor power. In order to evaluate the nanolubricant characteristics, accelerated tests were performed in a HFRR bench. In each 60 minutes test with nanolubricants at a certain concentration (0, 0.1 and 0.5 g/l), with three replications, the sphere (diameter 6.00 ± 0.05 mm, Ra 0.05 ± 0.005 um, AISI 52100 steel, E = 210 GPa, HRC 62 ± 4) sliding on a flat plate (cast iron FC200, Ra <0.5 ± 0.005 um) in a reciprocating motion with amplitude of 1 mm, frequency 20 Hz and a normal load of 1,96 N. The friction coefficient signals were recorded by sensors coupled to the HFRR system. There was a trend commented bit in the literature: a nanolubricant viscosity reduction at the low nanoparticles concentrations. It was found the dominant trend in the literature: increased thermal conductivity with increasing nanoparticles mass fraction in the base fluid. Another fact observed is the significant thermal conductivity growth of nanolubricant with increasing temperature. The condenser fan rotational speed is the most influential parameter (46.192%) in the refrigerator performance, followed by R600a charge (38.606%). The Al2O3 nanoparticles concentration in the lubricant plays a minor influence on system performance, with 12.44%. The results of power consumption indicates that the nanoparticles addition in the lubricant (0.1 g/L), together with R600a, the refrigerator consumption is reduced of 22% with respect to R134a and POE lubricant. Only the Al2O3 nanoparticles addition in the lubricant results in a consumption reduction of about 5%.

Caracterização do material particulado e avaliação do risco ocupacional e mecanismos moleculares associados à queima artesanal da castanha de caju

Brazil is among the largest cashew nut producers of the world. However, the roasting process is still carried out artisanally, especially in the Brazilian semiarid region. In face of this occupational problem, the aim of this study was to perform a physical-chemical characterization of the particulate matter (PM) emitted by the roasting of cashew nuts, as well as to determine the occupational risk and molecular mechanisms associated. The most evident PM characteristics were the prevalence of fine particles, typical biomass burning morphologies such as tar ball and the presence of the elements K, Cl, S, Ca and Fe. In addition, atmospheric modeling analyses suggest that these particles can reach neighboring regions of the emission source. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with carcinogenic potential, such as benzo[a]pyrene, dibenz[a,h]anthracene, benzo[a]anthracene, benzo[b]fluoranthene, chrysene, benzo[k]fluoranthene, indeno[1,2,3-c,d]pyrene and benzo[j]fluoranthene were the most abundant PAHs found in the two air monitoring campaigns. Among the identified oxy-PAH the benzanthrone (7H-benz[d,e]anthracen-7-one) had the highest concentration and the evaluation of lifetime cancer risk showed an increase of 12 to 37 cases of cancer for every 10,000 exposed people. Chemical analysis of roasted cashew nuts identified the PAHs: phenanthrene, benzo[g,h,i]perylene, pyrene and benzo[a]pyrene, besides the 3-pentadecilfenol allergen (urushiol analogue) as prevalent. Occupational exposure to PAHs was confirmed by the increase of urinary 1-hydroxypyrene levels and genotoxic effects were evidenced by the increase on micronuclei and nuclear bud frequency in exfoliated buccal mucosa cells among the exposed workers. Other biomarkers of effects such as karyorrhexis, pyknotic, karyolytic, condensed chromatin and binucleated cells also have their frequencies increased when compared to an unexposed control group. The investigation of the molecular mechanisms associated with the PM organic extract showed cytotoxicity in human lung cell lines (A549) at concentrations ≥ 4 nM BaPeq. Using non-cytotoxic doses the extract was able to activate proteins involved in the DNA damage response pathway (Chk1 and p53). Moreover, the specific contribution of the four most representative PAHs in the cashew nut roasting sample showed that benzo[a]pyrene was the most efficient to activate Chk1 and p53. Finally, the organic extract was able to increase persistently the mRNA expression involved in the PAHs metabolism (CYP1A1 and CYP1B1), inflammatory response (IL-8 and TNF-α) and cell cycle arrest (CDKN1A) for DNA repair (DDB2). The high PM concentrations and its biological effects associated warn of the serious harmful effects of artisanal cashew nut roasting and urgent actions should be taken to the sustainable development of this activity.

Estimativa da poluição emitida pelos ônibus das linhas troncais da cidade de Uberlândia, MG

The transport of people and goods contributes to the deterioration of the environment in urban areas because of the generation of pollution, such as, air, noise, soil, water or visual degradation. The heavy vehicles that use diesel as fuel are mainly responsible for the emission of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM), contributing to participation of the transport sector in air pollution. In addition, there is emission of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) whose main component is carbon dioxide (CO2). In most major cities, public transportation is often considered as a less polluting alternative compared to the private vehicle, in view of the potential to reduce, per passenger, the emissions of GHG and air pollutants. The study area was the city of Uberlândia and the objects of study were the trunk lines of the Sistema Integrado de Transporte (SIT). The emissions of NOx, PM and CO2 were estimated through the bottom-up approach which used the route of each bus line and also fuel consumption obtained through simulation from the TSIS software. The software has some result limitations, there are no report about the emission of pollutants by bus, and it is not able to change specifications for the fuel used by the fleet. The results obtained through calculations of pollutants and GHG emission by the bottom-up approach show that the emission is higher when using fuel comsuption obtained in simulation than using distance. For the results considering fuel and distance there was a reduction in emissions comparing ethanol and diesel.

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.

Analysis of metallic nanoantennas for solar energy conversion

Recently thermo-electrical nanoantennas, also known as Seebeck nanoantennas, have been proposed as an alternative for solar energy harvesting applications. In this work we present the optical and thermal analysis of metallic nanoantennas operating at infrared wavelengths, this study is performed by numerical simulations using COMSOL Multiphysics. Several different nanoantenna designs were analyzed including dipoles, bowties and square spiral antennas. Results show that metallic nanoantennas can be tuned to absorb electromagnetic energy at infrared wavelengths, and that numerical simulation can be useful in optimizing the performance of these types of nanoantennas at optical and infrared wavelengths.

Premelting-Induced Smoothening of the Ice-Vapor Interface

We perform computer simulations of the quasiliquid layer of ice formed at the ice-vapor interface close to the ice Ih-liquid-vapor triple point of water. Our study shows that the two distinct surfaces bounding the film behave at small wavelengths as atomically rough and independent ice-water and water-vapor interfaces. For long wavelengths, however, the two surfaces couple, large scale parallel fluctuations are inhibited, and the ice-vapor interface becomes smooth. Our results could help explain the complex morphology of ice crystallites.

Sistema de carga bidirecional para veículo elétrico

As preocupações com o elevado consumo de combustíveis fósseis e a crescente poluição atmosférica conduziram ao desenvolvimento dos veículos elétricos e dos veículos elétricos híbridos. O crescimento do parque automóvel elétrico levou à necessidade de considerar a sua integração na rede eléctrica, ao nível dos impactos estimados, mas também na sua potencial contribuição para uma gestão inteligente do sistema, funcionando como um buffer da energia produzida, permitindo desacoplar a produção do consumo, e assim melhor a eficiência global. Neste trabalho foi efetuado um estudo relacionado com a ligação bidirecional entre os veículos eléctricos e a rede eléctrica que permitirá o uso das baterias instaladas nos veículos participar nesse apoio à rede, debruçando-se primeiramente sobre o desenvolvimento das baterias que permanecem como elos mais fracos. Utilizando diferentes ferramentas de simulação e de análise de resultados foi depois efetuado um estudo sobre dois sistemas alternativos capazes de implementar o conceito V2G respeitando as restrições do ponto de vista normativo. Os resultados obtidos a partir de uma simulação coordenada entre os programas Simulink/Matlab e PSIM permitiram demostram o bom funcionamento dos 2 sistemas propostos, permitindo ficar com a convicção que o conversor multinível será capaz de proporcionar os resultados desejados com um menor tempo de resposta.

Estudo comparativo do processo de tratamento por lamas ativadas em regime de arejamento prolongado

Atualmente a despoluição das águas, antes da sua descarga em meio hídrico, é considerada uma necessidade de elevada importância, sendo realizada em Estações de Tratamento de Águas Residuais (ETAR). Dependendo da origem e das características de cada afluente, as ETAR adotam diversos tipos de tratamento, adequando-os caso a caso, com o objetivo de conseguir uma elevada qualidade para o efluente final. O tipo de tratamento mais utilizado, e também o mais versátil, é o tratamento biológico por lamas ativadas. Neste contexto, o presente trabalho apresenta um estudo comparativo do processo de tratamento biológico por lamas ativadas, em operação em regime de arejamento prolongado, aplicado a três estações de tratamento de águas residuais, com características distintas no que se refere ao tipo de reator biológico utilizado, assim como, ao volume e à sazonalidade do caudal a tratar. As ETAR contempladas no estudo, nomeadamente, a ETAR do Juncal, a ETAR de Pedreiras e a ETAR de Fátima, localizam-se no distrito de Leiria e fazem parte do Saneamento Integrado dos Municípios do Lis (SIMLIS). A comparação do processo de tratamento das ETAR decorreu entre Outubro de 2013 e Junho de 2014, tendo-se baseado na monitorização dos reatores biológicos, no que se refere ao pH, potencial redox, OD, temperatura, concentração de SST e SSV, teste de sedimentabilidade, IVL, razão A/M e A/V, TRH, TRS, cor das lamas e microbiologia. Os valores obtidos permitiram concluir que, num contexto geral, as três ETAR apenas demonstraram um comportamento ideal relativamente aos valores de pH e potencial redox. Os valores de OD e temperatura mantiveram-se abaixo dos valores ideais para este tipo de tratamento; e a elevada concentração de SSV, nas ETAR de Fátima e de Pedreiras, e a baixa concentração de SSV, na ETAR de Juncal, impediram que a razão A/M, o teste de sedimentabilidade o IVL e o TRS cumprissem os valores ideais esperados. O incumprimento dos valores recomendados deve-se, muito provavelmente, ao facto das ETAR se encontrarem a operar abaixo da sua capacidade de utilização, no que respeita à população-equivalente a servir e ao volume de caudal afluente. Aparentemente as condições operacionais observadas durante o estudo não condicionaram o processo de tratamento biológico, uma vez que a qualidade do efluente tratado manteve sempre padrões elevados

Avaliação de desempenho de ETAR urbanas

Na ultima década, a necessidade da definição de objectivos de gestão por parte das entidades gestoras, e a correspondente necessidade de verificação do cumprimento dos objectivos estabelecidos, levaram à implementação de iniciativas para o estudo e desenvolvimento de metedologias no domínio de avaliação de desempenho dos serviços de saneamento. O presente trabalho tem como principal objectivo, a avaliação do desempenho das nove infraestruturas em exploração pela SIMLIS, SA, tendo-se seleccionado, para este efeito, doze indicadores de desempenho,distribuídos pelos domínios da qualidade da água tratada; da eficiência e fiabilidade da ETAR; da utilização de água, energia e materiais; e da gestão de subprodutos. Como aspectos da avaliação de desempenho foram seleccionados, a conformidade com a licença de descarga, a qualidade da água rejeitada no meio recetor, a eficiência global da ETAR, o consumo de energia, o consumo de reagentes, a utilização de águas residuais tratadas, a produção e valorização de lamas e a produção de biogás. Para o processo de avaliação de desempenho, definiu-se um período de análise de um ano, nomeadamente o ano de 2013, para o qual se estabeleceram metas para cada um dos indicadores a avaliar. Conclui-se que a avaliação de desempenho é uma ferramenta essencial à gestão, pois permitiu analisar, não só o desempenho global da entidade gestora, mas também, avaliar o desempenho individual de cada uma das infraestruturas. Foi ainda possível, em alguns casos, avaliar o desempenho das ETAR em função do tipo de processo de tratamento utilizado. O uso adequado desta ferramenta de avaliação de desempenho permitiu à SIMLIS, de uma forma mais eficiente, aplicar acções correctivas quando identificados problemas e optimizar recursos, sendo usada como ferramenta de apoio à decisão.

Partidos, tradiciones y estrategias de movilización social : De la Junta de la Victoria a la Unión de Mujeres de la Argentina

Este trabajo analiza el surgimiento de la Unión de Mujeres de la Argentina (UMA). El disparador es comprender cómo un proyecto del Partido Comunista Argentino desbordó los límites partidarios intentando constituirse como un movimiento de masas femenino. La atención se colocará sobre el hecho de que este conjunto de mujeres rescató una experiencia de movilización que las precedió: la Junta de la Victoria (JV). La UMA capitalizó en el contexto de los primeros años del gobierno peronista (1947-1949) varias propuestas de la JV durante la entreguerras. Así logró movilizar redes de sociabilidad y adhesión que se conjugaron con un proyecto de mujer ciudadana activa y partícipe justificada en la arena política, social y económica desde su lugar de madre. El corpus se compone de entrevistas a dirigentes de ambas agrupaciones y del Partido Comunista así como de recursos escritos tales como diarios y revistas que se pondrán en juego para comprender las complejidad de la temática propuesta
