Uso de sistemas construídos de áreas alagadas (Constructed Wetland System - CWS) tipo ascendente/descendente, para tratamento de efluentes avícolas

Human development and population growth during the twentieth century increased the water demand, tripling its consumption between 1950 and 1990. As the water streams were polluted; and as water is the source of minerals and also regulates vital functions, it becomes the vehicle of transmission and consequently spreads many diseases. Probably, the industries are the major responsible for this pollution when they dump untreated effluents to water streams, saturating the already insufficient net of sanitation facilities polluting water and soil. An effective treatment has been established with low cost in Europe and the United States, through constructed systems on wetlands Constructed Wetland Systems - CWSs, gradually used in other countries in the last three decades. Lately, we observe a continuous growth in Brazilian poultry business, and poultry industry showed greatest dynamism in the country, following the global market. Pondering this information and the efficiency of such treatment, this work aimed to study prototypes, in a laboratory scale, simulating ascending and descending types of CWSs, vegetated with aquatic macrophytes Eichhornia crassipes and the uses of aggregates and soil, to treat industrial wastewater from slaughterhouses and aviary. We conducted the initial characterization of the effluent to have an idea of its constituents and to scale the system and the continuous flow. Furthermore, we characterized the soil to be used in this system. The collects are periodically made in the refrigeration industry FRICOCK FRIGORIFICAÇÃO AVICULTURA INDÚSTRIA E COMÉRCIO LTDA. for local treatment simulation. The effluent that was treated with 12 prototypes of CWSs are analyzed with some frequency. The results of these reviews were compared to the effluent coming from the industry...

Desidratação de lodo proveniente de ETA através de tubos geotexteis

Currently exists a growing concern for the preservation of the environment Around the world, the environmental awareness in Brazil has strengthened during the past two decades. This concern in Brazil arises from the creation of mechanisms of supervision and punishment on the part of the environmental agencies. In order to meet the pertinent legislation many public and private companies have performed dehydration of waste generated in the process of treatment of industrial effluents, waste water and water treatment in order to reduce transport and disposal costs. The use of geotextile tubes has proven technically and economically feasible to be applied in various situations from water treatment to mining tailings. This work presents the solution adopted for an environmental liability in water treatment plant through the use of geotextile tubes to reduce the water content of the disposal. We evaluated the size distribution curves, Atterberg limits, and chemical composition of the residue. Found high concentrations of aluminum in the waste which would characterize environmental pollution if disposed off directly in nature with no treatment

Atendimento à norma NBR 12.209/2011 na implantação de uma Estação de Tratamento de Esgotos no município de Guaratinguetá (SP)

The progressive growth of the population and the increase of sewage generated has demanded of society and public policies that, besides the collection network deployment is carried out the treatment and proper disposal of treated sewage in all brazilian municipalities. The aim of this study was to monitor and evaluate the work of implementation of a Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) in Guaratinguetá city of São Paulo state, to identify the compliance with legal requirements and the NBR 12,209/2011. The construction of this ETE met all the requirements of NBR 12209/2011 and benefited a large portion of population with the sewage treatment. Based on the results of this assessment it was concluded that the construction of a STP is relatively simple, differing only on the legal requirements related to the location, area for the construction and materials used in the work. The knowledge generated in this study will assist the public policies in the implementation of STPs in municipalities that do not yet have this basic sanitation

Identificação taxonômica e análise conexionista de bactérias heterotróficas e fatores abióticos de ambientes lóticos sob influência de efluentes do refino no petróleo

This study used a multi-analytical approach based on traditional microbiological methods for cultivation and isolation of heterotrophic bacteria in the laboratory associated with the molecular identification of the isolates and physicochemical analysis of environmental samples. The model chosen for data integration was supported by knowledge from computational neuroscience, and composed by three modules: (i) microbiological parameters, contemplating taxonomic data obtained from the partial sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene from 80 colonies of heterotrophic bacteria isolated by plating method in PCA media. For bacterial colonies isolation were used water samples from Atibaia and Jaguarí rivers collected at the site of water captation for use in effluent treatment, upstream from the entrance of treated effluent from the Paulínia refinery (REPLAN/Petrobras) located in the Paulínia-SP municipality, from the output of the biological treatment plant with stabilization pond and from the raw refinery wastewater; (ii) chemical parameters, ending measures of dissolved oxygen (DO), chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chloride, acidity CaCO3, alkalinity, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, dissolved ions, sulfides, oils and greases; and (iii) physical parameters, comprising the pH determination, conductivity, temperature, transparency, settleable solids, suspended and soluble solids, volatile material, remaining fixing material (RFM), apparent color and turbidity. The results revealed interesting theoretical relationships involving two families of bacteria (Carnobacteriaceae and Aeromonadaceae). Carnobacteriaceae revealed positive theoretical relationships with COD, BOD, nitrate, chloride, temperature, conductivity and apparent color and negative theoretical relationships with the OD. Positive theoretical relationships were shown between Aeromonadaceae and OD and nitrate, while this bacterial family showed negative theoretical...

Remoção de matéria orgânica e nitrogênio de efluentes provenientes de abatedouros de bovinos por meio de reator aeróbio operando em bateladas sequenciais com adição de coagulante químico

The volume of liquid effluent generated in cattle slaughterhouses is quite high and cannot be released untreated in water bodies due to its high pollution load of predominantly organic origin. To minimize the environmental impacts of its industrial wastewater and meet the local environmental legislation, abattoirs shall make the treatment of these effluents. The present work aims to develop the study of a reactor by sequential batch pilot scale, in order to optimize their performance in treating wastewater from a cattle slaughterhouse. The treatment system used was developed and installed in the Laboratory of Wastewater Treatment, in Faculty of Science and Technology UNESP, Presidente Prudente campus. The procedure used followed the operation of sequential batch reactors, in which all processes and treatment operations occurring sequentially in a single unit, by establishing specific operating cycles, which comprise the following separated phases: aerobic reaction, anoxic reaction, sedimentation and emptying. Aiming to improve the quality of treatment was planned the addition of coagulant Poly Aluminum Chloride (PAC) in the reactor, by determining their optimal dosage by Jar-test trials. Were prepared four steps with specific operating cycles: step one or acclimatization (10 hour of aeration, one hour and 30 minutes of sedimentation and 30 minutes for exchanging the effluent); step 2 (6 hours of aeration or aerobic phase, 4 hours and 45 minutes of stirring or anoxic phase and 1 hour and 15 minutes for sedimentation and exchange effluent); step 3 (2 hours and 30 minutes of aeration, 8 hours and 15 minutes of stirring and 1 hour and 15 minutes for sedimentation and exchange) and step 4 (2 hours of aeration, 8 hours and 45 minutes of stirring and 1 hour and 15 minutes for sedimentation and exchange)...

Avaliação da remoção de matéria orgânica e nutrientes por sorção em solos residuais

A recarga artificial de aquíferos (RAQ) com águas residuais tratadas (ART) é uma prática que pode contribuir para a reposição de volumes de água no solo, que pode ser muito vantajoso em áreas com déficit hídrico ou com sobre-exploração de águas subterrâneas. No entanto, as cargas residuais das ART (p.e. matéria orgânica, nutrientes, metais pesados e microrganismos patogênicos) podem constituir uma desvantagem para a qualidade da água subterrânea, se o solo apresentar condições desfavoráveis para a sua infiltração. Realizaram-se ensaios laboratoriais em batelada para avaliar a remoção de matéria orgânica e nutrientes (formas de nitrogênio e fósforo) na componente fina de um solo residual granítico, proveniente de uma zona previamente selecionada para a infiltração de ART, localizada no nordeste da região da Beira Interior (Quinta de Gonçalo Martins, Guarda, Portugal). Os resultados dos ensaios de sorção em batelada mostram uma boa remoção de P-PO4, por complexação e precipitação, o que indica que o solo apresenta capacidade reativa para remover a carga residual de fosfato das ART. Após realização dos ensaios em batelada, as propriedades do solo mantiveram-se praticamente inalteradas.

Caracterização da remoção de metais pesados na ETAR da Charneca (Óbidos), Águas do Oeste

Este trabalho teve como objectivos a quantificação analítica de quatro metais pesados (chumbo, níquel, crómio e cádmio) nas diferentes etapas da ETAR da Charneca (Óbidos) identificando, através dos coeficientes de partição, os principais mecanismos de remoção dos metais em cada etapa de tratamento. Foram também determinados os parâmetros mais importantes na caracterização de águas residuais (pH, CQO, ST, STV, SS e SSV). Foram realizadas duas campanhas de amostragem, uma primeira com o objectivo de aperfeiçoamento dos planos de amostragem e selecção dos métodos analíticos a adoptar e uma segunda para o cumprimento dos objectivos do trabalho. A determinação de metais pesados foi efectuada por Espectrometria de Absorção Atómica de Chama (FAAS) e Espectrometria de Absorção Atómica de Câmara de Grafite (GFAAS). Os restantes parâmetros analíticos foram determinados pelos métodos de referência (APHA, 1998). No período de amostragem, o afluente à ETAR apresentou concentrações reduzidas dos metais em estudo com valores médios de 11,78 µg/L. De entre os metais destacavam-se, no entanto, o crómio e de níquel, com concentrações respectivamente 27,83 µg/L e 17,50 µg/L. As amostras de areias, extraídas na obra de entrada, apresentaram concentrações mais significativas de chumbo e crómio, enquanto as amostras de gorduras, recolhidas no mesmo ponto, apresentaram concentrações mais elevadas de níquel e crómio. As amostras do efluente final revelaram concentrações muito reduzidas dos quatro metais estudados com a concentração média a situar-se nos 7,34 µg/L. Verificou-se uma remoção na fase líquida do efluente de cerca de 85% para o chumbo, 39% para o níquel e 34% para o crómio. No cádmio não se verificou remoção na fase líquida. Concluiu-se que a remoção dos metais é determinada por uma transferência destes para a fase sólida e que ocorre fundamentalmente no reactor biológico onde uma parte significativa dos metais pesados é absorvida pela biomassa presente. Nas lamas desidratadas, os metais encontrados em maior concentração foram o chumbo e o crómio com concentrações de respectivamente 130,64 mg/Kgmat.seca e 87,99 mg/Kg mat.seca, embora todos os metais pesados estudados apresentem uma situação de conformidade com os requisitos de lamas para valorização agrícola, estabelecidos na legislação nacional.

Remoção de compostos nitrogenados e fosfatados de efluentes por meio de reator anaeróbico com fluxo ascendente

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a remoção de compostos nitrogenados e fosfatados e da carga orgânica poluidora oriunda de cultivo heterotrófico de camarão marinho, por meio de reator anaeróbico. Foi construído um reator com fluxo ascendente, em que os efluentes de entrada e saída foram avaliados continuamente durante 120 horas, com três repetições. Os parâmetros físicos e químicos avaliados foram: temperatura, pH, condutividade, ortofosfato, nitrito, nitrato, amônia, demanda química de oxigênio e sólidos totais. O reator permaneceu estável, com boas condições de retenção de sólidos. O reator anaeróbico removeu 96,7% do nitrogênio amoniacal e 91% de ortofosfatos dos efluentes de cultivo de camarão marinho, o que mostra que os efluentes tratados estão dentro dos limites estabelecidos pela legislação.
