Benefícios dos relatórios de sustentabilidade na competitividade e melhoria da gestão empresarial: estudo de caso do setor automotivo

The increase of the world population and their consumption power requires companies to increase their production capacity to meet demand. This production process is often performed without control and degrades the environment. In view of the stiffness of the legal requirements and the increasing of environmental concerns, companies need to act in a sustainable way to continue existing. The main objective of this study is to investigate how sustainability reports that follow the guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) can bring benefits to companies in the continuous improvement of its processes and the competitiveness of the sector. The sector chosen for the study was the automotive industry, due to its importance in the national economy and the significant impacts caused to the population and to the environment. The methodology consists of reading the GRI sustainability reports of companies and then performing a comparison among them and the bibliography of the subject. The results confirm the importance of the GRI sustainability reporting for companies and show how the selected indicators can contribute to the corporate management and to the control of its processes

Seleção de motobombas para o setor sucroalcooleiro

This work has the purpose to explain how the sugar and alcohol sector works, detail all the processes which uses pumps and assist in the selection and specification of pumps attached with engines, that will make part in important industry processes in the manufacture of sugar and alcohol. A bibliographic revision about the working of sugar and alcohol sector and about pumps were made to help the analysis of a case. This case had the purpose to analyze the selected pumps that were part of a initial project of an industry which aimed a future expansion. The pumps that were selected to made part of the initial project were over dimensioned and were operating out of the best performance point, making the pumps inefficient because the expansion didn't happened. The solution was to select another pump with bigger performance and less power consumption to have a decrease in the energy consumption and in the operational costs of the industry and using the extra electric energy in the industry or selling it

Barreiras à entrada no Setor Siderúrgico Brasileiro no período de 1993 a 2012

This study aims to identify and analyze the barriers to entry in the two technological routes (integrated and semi - integrated mills) , the Brazilian steel industry , specifically in the areas of Plans and Long , in the period 1993-2012 . Thus, the study is characterized as an exploratory - descriptive research, based on data collection from secondary sources. The competitiveness is influenced by structural market factor, among them the threat of new market entrants. The entrants can have their ticket inhibited by entry barriers. In the steel industry, it was identified that the main strong structural barriers are economic, the type of scale economy, highlighting the idle capacity, and sunk costs. Institutional and economic barriers, the diversification and product differentiation type, are considered moderate barriers. Economic barriers, the type absolute cost advantage and initial capital requirements, and strategic price barrier are considered weak. With this, one can consider that the input type which most closely approximates the market for national steel industries is blocked, since their main barriers are the structural type

A internacionalização do setor siderúrgico via fusões e aquisições: um estudo sobre a competitividade do setor no Brasil

A siderurgia é um importante elo na cadeia siderúrgica, unindo tanto setores que estão atrás dela, mineração e carvão, como os que seguem a sua frente, setores da construção civil, máquinas e ferramentas, automobilístico e até mesmo setores de maior intensidade tecnológica como o da aeronáutica. Esta monografia tem por objetivo estudar a internacionalização que o setor siderúrgico brasileiro sofreu durante a última década analisando tanto os fluxos de fusões e aquisições de empresas brasileiras as quais compram ativos no exterior como também de indústrias siderúrgicas estrangeiras que adquirem ativos produtivos no Brasil. Deseja-se estabelecer se as Fusões e Aquisições foram capazes de trazer maior competitividade para as empresas nacionais e avaliar o impacto que a indústria brasileira sofre com a entrada de siderúrgicas estrangeiras. Para tanto, foram feitas análises qualitativas buscando analisar quais as estratégias de internacionalização das empresas e relacionar as fusões e aquisições feitas de acordo com as estratégias traçadas. Em termos quantitativos tentou-se verificar por meio do market-share mensurado em termos mundiais de venda se as operações realizadas pelas empresas foram capazes de elevá-las a patamares competitivos superiores

Micro-fungos de interesse para o setor de petróleo, gás e biocombustíveis

Oil is a hydrocarbon mixture of various sizes, including saturated and aromatic compounds. Natural gas is a mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons and its main component is methane. In our society, the great demand for these fuels requires fast extraction, transportation and refining, increasing the number of accidents that compromise the environment. Oil is a finite resource and it is necessary to reduce the problems related to the question concerning environmental pollution which has encouraged the search for alternative fuel sources in our country. So today we have two major biofuels: ethanol and biodiesel. Concurrently, many studies have been done directed toward the isolation of microorganisms capable of degrading petrochemical industrial wastes, most of them using as a source of isolation soil and water collected in a contaminated environment. Isolation from alternative substrates has emerged as a new strategy that has provided satisfactory results. In this work, we present the leaf-cutter ants of the Attini tribe as a source for the isolation of micro-fungi with the potential for hydrocarbon degradation. These insects have a social way of life and a highly specialized system of intra and interspecific communication, which is based on the recognition of individuals through volatile chemical compounds, the majority hydrocarbons, stored in their exoskeleton. The micro-environment exoskeleton of Attini ants (genus Atta) used in this work proved to be a rich source of microbial biodiversity, as other studies have found. The flotation isolation technique applied here allowed the achievement of 214 micro-fungi, 118 representatives of the dematiaceous fungi group and 96 hyaline filamentous fungi. They were submitted to toluene degradation tests and at least one strain of each genus presented good results, namely Teratosphaeria, Exophiala, Cladosporium, Penicillium, Aspergillus...

Foraminíferos em um transecto de manguezal da Ilha do Cardoso (SP): distribuição em função da frequência de inundação e modelos para reconstruções paleoambientais no setor de petróleo & gás

O estudo do conteúdo de foraminíferos de 8 amostras de sedimentos superficiais coletados em manguezal do norte da Ilha do Cardoso, sul do Estado de São Paulo, no verão (período chuvoso) de 2001, ao longo de um transecto no sentido da Baía de Trapandé para o interior, revelou dois segmentos distintos: a) uma planície inferior lamosa, com menor tempo de exposição sub-aérea e maior diversidade específica, dominada por Ammotiumcassis, A.salsum, Arenoparrella mexicana e Trochamminainflata, com abundância expressiva de Caroniaexilis na parte mais baixa e de Miliammina fusca na parte mais alta; b) uma planície superior arenosa, com maior tempo de exposição sub-aérea e menor diversidade, dominada por M. fusca e com abundância expressiva de T. inflatana parte mais baixa. Os sedimentos investigados são colonizados por foraminíferos exclusivamente aglutinantes, representados por 21 espécies de 16 gêneros. Dados de abundância relativa, riqueza, diversidade e equitatividade das espécies ao longo do transecto são apresentados, bem como os valores de salinidade, pH, oxigênio dissolvido e temperatura, medidos a partir da água intersticial dos sedimentos no momento da coleta das amostras. São feitas comparações com um estudo anterior, similar, que focalizou amostras coletadas, nos mesmos pontos, no inverno (período seco) de 2002. Os resultados obtidos interessam às análises de sistemas estuarinos modernos e antigos, bem como a projetos envolvidos com o diagnóstico do estado de conservação de áreas litorâneas, sendo úteis ao Setor de Petróleo e Gás

Análise crítica de um vaso de pressão do setor sucroalcooleiro

This study aims to evaluate structurally a heat exchanger that has been in operation since the mid-60's and was built COSAN for operation in one of its sugar production plants in São Paulo, this equipment as well as many similar devices are operation in plants throughout Brazil, and thus to be acquired by large corporations as in the case of COSAN, pass the scrutiny of inspection work, and work such as recalculations in the latter case in structural evaluations to verify the possible need for adjustments to project or operation and thus ensure the structural integrity of the equipment. To this were first done field survey using techniques of NDT and NDT's for determining the thickness of the main parts of the equipment, made the revaluation dimensional and existing project and considering the loads operating performing the characterization of the equipment as specified in the standard regulatory number 13 - NR13 and the other for this type of equipment and finally an analysis using a static approach, as an analysis tool using the finite element method

Reestruturaçaõ do setor de telecomunicações brasileiro

A reestruturação do setor de telecomunicações brasileiro é o tema desse trabalho. Essa mudança veio acompanhada da privatização do SISTEMA TELEBRÁS, monopólio estatal organizado em diversas subsidiárias, que forneciam os serviços através de uma rede de telecomunicações interligada em todo o território nacional (PIRES, 1999). Segundo REED (1997), privatização pode ser entendida como um processo através do qual os governos vendem suas empresas estatais na totalidade ou em blocos de ações a investidores privados locais ou internacionais. Apesar de ter sido iniciada ainda nos anos 80, a privatização brasileira só ganhou destaque quando chegou aos serviços públicos na segunda metade da década de 90, trazendo implicações micro e macroeconômicas, tornando-se necessário melhorar as instituições e o sistema de regulação dos setores. O objetivo do estudo é analisar a mudança ocorrida no setor de telecomunicações no Brasil, desde a criação da Telebrás nos anos 70 até a sua privatização; o que promoveu a transformação de um sistema estatal sem regulamentação e freqüentemente ineficiente para um novo setor, que necessitaria de grandes investimentos e esforços para atingir as metas de desenvolvimento
