This study seeks to investigate the use of a surfactant derived from coconut oil (SCO saponified coconut oil) in the recovery process of organic compounds that are present in oily effluents from petroleum industry. For this end, experiments were accomplished in a column of small dimension objectifying to verify the influence of the surfactant SCO in the efficiency of oil removal. This way, they were prepared emulsions with amount it fastens of oil (50, 100, 200 and 400 ppm), being determined the great concentrations of surfactant for each one of them. Some rehearsals were still accomplished with produced water of the industry of the petroleum to compare the result with the one of the emulsions. According to the experiments, it was verified that an increase of the surfactant concentration does not implicate in a greater oil removal. The separation process use gaseous bubbles formed when a gas stream pass a liquid column, when low surfactant concentrations are used, it occurs the coalescence of the dispersed oil droplets and their transport to the top of the column, forming a new continuous phase. Such surfactants lead to a gas-liquid interface saturation, depending on the used surfactant concentration, affecting the flotation process and influencing in the removal capacity of the oily dispersed phase. A porous plate filter, with pore size varying from 40 to 250 mm, was placed at the base of the column to allow a hydrodynamic stable operation. During the experimental procedures, the operating volume of phase liquid was held constant and the rate of air flow varied in each experiment. The resulting experimental of the study hydrodynamic demonstrated what the capturing of the oil was influenced by diameter of the bubbles and air flow. With the increase flow of 300 about to 900 cm3.min-1, occurred an increase in the removal of oil phase of 44% about to 66% and the removal kinetic of oil was defined as a reaction of 1? order / Tecnologias inovadoras que usam materiais tensoativos t?m aplicabilidade em v?rios campos industriais, dentre eles petr?leo e g?s natural.

Since from the establishment of the ICG-LAC some studies were carried out. However, this germplasm needs to be studied in depth comprising the morphoagronomical characterization, chemical and molecular evaluation in order to allow to estimate the genetic variability of the accessions. Thus, the aim of this work was to characterize morphologically coconut accessions (dwarfs and talls). The trials were carried out with eight tall coconut accessions in one cycle of production using 34 quantitative descriptors and with six dwarf coconut accessions in three cycles of production using 19 descriptors of fruits and 11 leave descriptors. The data obtained were subjected to univariate and multivariate analyses using the software GENES and Selegem. Among the accessions of tall coconuts the most dissimilar ones considering the morphoagronomical characters were Gigante-de-Rotuma and Gigante-do-Oeste Africano and they can be indicated as parents for coconut breeding programs. It was also found a great genetic variability among the coconut dwarf accessions of the ICG-LAC Bank, and this divergence was found to be consistent in the individual and joint analyses, including an analysis of maximum likelihood restricted (REML) taking into account a sample of morphological descriptors. The 14 coconut accessions (eight tall and six dwarfs) were used to perform a chemical evaluation of oil and their components in a cycle of crop production in two different field trials. It was found that some dwarf coconut accessions presented values of oil content similar to coconut tall accessions. Therefore, the best accessions can be exploited for coconut water as well as for production of oil and they can be selected as potential superior parents to be used in coconut breeding program. / A variabilidade gen?tica da esp?cie Cocos nucifera, L. existente no Brasil est? conservada no Banco Internacional de Germoplasma de Coco para Am?rica Latina e Caribe (ICG-LAC), localizado em Ne?polis e Itaporanga d?Ajuda em Sergipe, Brasil. Desde a implementa??o do ICG-LAC alguns estudos t?m sido realizados. No entanto, esse germoplasma precisa ser estudado em profundidade desde a caracteriza??o morfoagron?mica, qu?mica e molecular para se estimar a diversidade gen?tica dos acessos. Assim, o objetivo do trabalho foi caracterizar e avaliar morfoagronomicamente e quimicamente acessos de coqueiro-an?o e gigantes. Os experimentos foram conduzidos com oito acessos de coqueiros-gigantes em um ciclo de cultura e usando 34 descritores quantitativos e com seis acessos de coqueiros-an?es em tr?s ciclos da cultura utilizando-se 19 descritores de frutos e 11 descritores de folha. Os dados obtidos foram submetidos a an?lises univariadas e multivariadas usando o programa GENES e Selegem. Entre os acessos de coqueiros-gigantes avaliados os mais dissimilares pelas caracter?sticas agron?micas foram o Gigante-de-Rotuma e Gigante-do-Oeste-Africano, e estes podem ser indicados como genitores para programas de melhoramento. Foi encontrada tamb?m encontrada variabilidade gen?tica entre os acessos de coqueiro-an?o do banco ICG-LAC, diverg?ncia essa que se mostrou consistente nas an?lises individuais e conjuntas, incluindo uma an?lise de m?xima verossimilhan?a restrita (REML) usando uma amostra descritores morfol?gicos. Os 14 acessos de coqueiros (oito de gigantes e seis de an?es) foram analisados quanto ao teor de ?leo e seus componentes em um ciclo de cultura em dois experimentos separados. Constatou-se que alguns acessos de coqueiros-an?es apresentaram teor de ?leo pr?ximos dos valores obtidos pelos coqueiros-gigantes. Assim, os melhores acessos podem ser explorados tanto para ?gua de coco como para a produ??o de ?leo e s?o parentais potenciais para uso em programas de melhoramento do coqueiro.

This work aims to investigate the efficiency of saponified coconut oil (SCO) as corrosion inhibitor and of microemulsified system (SCO + butanol + kerosene oil + distilled water), in saline medium, using an adapted instrumented cell, via techniques involving linear polarization resistance (LPR) and mass loss coupons (MLC). For this, curves of efficiency versus SCO concentration (ranging between 0 and 75 ppm) have been constructed. According to the obtained results, the following efficiency levels were reached with OCS: 98% at a 75 ppm concentration via the LPR method and 95% at 75 ppm via the MLC method. The microemulsified system, for a concentration of 15 ppm of SCO, obtained maximum inhibition of 97% (LPR) and 93% (MLC). These data indicate that it is possible to optimize the use of SCO in similar applications. Previous works have demonstrated that maximal efficiencies below 90% are attained, typically 65% as free molecules and 77% in microemulsified medium, via the LPR method in a different type of cell. Therefore, it can be concluded that the adapted instrumented cell (in those used methods) showed to be an important tool in this kind of study and the SCO was shown effective in the inhibition of the metal / Tensoativos v?m sendo alvo de interesse como inibidores de corros?o, pois funcionam como pel?culas protetoras sobre ?reas an?dicas e cat?dicas. Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar a efici?ncia de inibi??o ? corros?o do tensoativo ?leo de coco saponificado (OCS) e do sistema icroemulsionado (OCS + butanol + querosene + ?gua destilada), em meio salino, utilizando-se uma c?lula instrumentada adaptada. A efic?cia do OCS foi avaliada utilizando-se os m?todos de resist?ncia de polariza??o linear (LPR) e cupons de perda de massa (CPM), tendo sido constru?das curvas de efici?ncia versus concentra??o de OCS (variando de 0 a 75 ppm). De acordo com os resultados obtidos, verificou-se que este tensoativo apresenta a seguinte ordem de efici?ncia de inibi??o ? corros?o: para uma concentra??o de 75 ppm, 98% pelo m?todo LPR e 95% pelo m?todo CPM. O sistema microemulsionado, para uma concentra??o de 15 ppm de OCS, obteve inibi??o m?xima de 97% (LPR) e 93% (CPM). Atrav?s deste trabalho foi poss?vel otimizar o uso do tensoativo OCS, que em trabalhos anteriores mostrou efic?cia m?xima inferior a 90% (63% na sua forma livre e 77% na sua forma microemulsionada, pelo m?todo LPR, em um outro tipo de c?lula). Conclusivamente, pode-se dizer que a c?lula instrumentada adaptada (nos m?todos utilizados) provou ser uma ferramenta importante neste tipo de estudo e o OCS mostrou-se efetivo na inibi??o do metal
