Investigação de diagramas de coagulação utilizando coagulantes e auxiliares de coagulação de fontes renováveis

Costa, Talita Ferreira de Rezende 29 April 2013 (has links)
Fundação de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado de Minas Gerais / This study investigated the coagulation diagrams using tannin as organic coagulant, from renewable source, associated or not, to the inorganic coagulant aluminium sulphate and to coagulation auxiliaries sodium aluminate (inorganic) and cationic hemicellulose (from renewable source) for treatment of industrial laundry effluent. The methodology consisted of removing oils and greases, followed by filtration, pH adjustment, and application of the coagulants and auxiliaries at various concentrations. Coagulant tannin is mostly effective in removing turbidity in acid pH\'s (3 to 5) when used at concentrations higher than 1000 ppm, possibly acting under the adsorption mechanisms and formation of bridges, and adsorption, and charge neutrality. When associated to sodium aluminate at ratio 3:1 (v/v) tannin, sodium aluminium oxide), it permitted larger removals of turbidity on acid regions for two ranges of concentration (lower than 1500 ppm and higher than 3750 ppm), indicating that the tannin/sodium aluminium oxide interaction is not favourable to undo itself and interact with the effluent particles. The association of tannin with aluminium sulphate presented the largest removals of turbidity at all pH ranges and concentrations investigated, possibly by an interaction between cation Al3+ and the hydroxyls bonded to the tannin benzene ring forming a chelate with more stability and interaction with suspended particles, stabilizing the flocs formed by this interaction. The addition of cationic hemicellulose offers improvements to the removal of turbidity at the basic pH region (worst tannin performance) provided by tannin, however, its action is conditioned to the tannin efficiency in the coagulation process. The possible interactions between the hemicellulose and the effluent suggest interactions of the type hydrogen bridges and dipole-dipole interactions. The use of tannins associated to cationic hemicellulose allows treatment of industrial laundry effluent with formation of sludge of more biodegradability, which is an advantage from the sustainability point-of-view. / O presente trabalho investigou os diagramas de coagulação, utilizando o coagulante orgânico tanino, proveniente de fonte renovável, associado ou não, ao coagulante inorgânico sulfato de alumínio e aos auxiliares de coagulação aluminato de sódio (inorgânico) e hemicelulose catiônica (de fonte renovável) para o tratamento de efluente de lavanderia industrial. A metodologia consistiu na retirada de óleos e graxas, seguida de filtração e ajuste de pH e aplicação dos coagulantes e auxiliares em diversas concentrações. O coagulante tanino possui maior eficácia na remoção de turbidez em pHs ácidos (3 a 5) quando utilizado em concentrações superiores a 1000 ppm possivelmente, atuando sob os mecanismos de adsorção e formação de pontes e adsorção e neutralização de cargas. Quando associado ao aluminato de sódio em proporção 3:1 ((v/v) tanino/aluminato de sódio), permitiu maiores remoções de turbidez em regiões ácidas para duas faixas de concentração (menores que 1500 ppm e maiores que 3750 ppm ), indicando que a interação entre o tanino e aluminato de sódio não é favorável para se desfazer e interagir com as partículas do efluente. A associação do tanino com o sulfato de alumínio apresentou as maiores remoções de turbidez em todas as faixas de pH e concentrações investigadas, possivelmente, por uma interação entre o cátion Al3+ e as hidroxilas ligadas ao anel benzênico do tanino formando um quelato com maior estabilidade e interação com as partículas suspensas, estabilizando os flocos formados por esta interação. A adição da hemicelulose catiônica oferece melhorias para remoção de turbidez na região de pHs básicos (pior atuação do tanino) proporcionado pelo tanino, porém sua ação está condicionada a eficácia do tanino no processo de coagulação. As possíveis interações entre a hemicelulose e o efluente sugerem interações do tipo pontes de hidrogênio e dipolo-dipolo. O uso dos taninos associado à hemicelulose catiônica permite o tratamento do efluente de lavanderia industrial com a formação de um lodo de maior biodegradabilidade, sendo esta uma vantagem do ponto de vista da sustentabilidade. / Mestre em Química

Estudos anatômicos e fisiológicos de frutos de caquizeiro (Diospyros kaki L.) quanto ao acúmulo de taninos e aos processos de destanização / Anatomical and physiological studies of persimmon fruits (Diospyros kaki L.) on the tannin accumulation and deastringency processes

O presente trabalho visou analisar comparativamente as alterações fisiológicas e estruturais de caquis adstringentes (PVA) e não adstringentes (PCNA) desde o início do desenvolvimento até a maturação avançada. Além disso, na pós-colheita, foram realizados tratamentos de destanização e testadas diferentes condições de armazenamento para \"Giombo\". Este trabalho está sendo apresentado em seis capítulos, sendo que os últimos cinco capítulos referem-se aos experimentos realizados entre 2010 a 2013. No capítulo 2 é apresentado o desenvolvimento de caquis \"Giombo\" (PVA) e \"Fuyu\"(PCNA). Foi possível observar que a diferenciação das células taníferas e o processo de acúmulo de taninos no vacúolo não variou entre as cultivares, porém houve diferença significativa em relação à densidade de células taníferas e aos teores de taninos solúveis. O capítulo 3 apresenta o estudo comparativo de sete estádios de maturação de caquis \"Giombo\" e \"Rojo Brillante\"(PVA) e \"Fuyu\" e \"Hana Fuyu\" (PCNA). A redução da firmeza do mesocarpo de caquis de ambos os grupos está relacionada ao avanço da maturação e não à perda natural da adstringência. A capacidade antioxidante e o teor de sólidos solúveis em caquis dos dois grupos indicam que pode haver relação com a perda natural da adstringência, pois houve decréscimo somente nas cultivares PVA durante a maturação. Os taninos delimitados às células taníferas no teste com vanilina clorídrica, e o conteúdo do vacúolo com aspecto alveolar observado ao Cryo-SEM podem estar relacionados à polimerização dos taninos durante o amadurecimento dos frutos. No experimento descrito no capítulo 4, caquis \"Giombo\" de fim e início de safra foram submetidos a diferentes tempos de exposição ao etanol (1,70 mL Kg-1). No fim da safra os frutos obtiveram índice de adstringência e teores de taninos solúveis adequados para consumo em 24 horas e, no início da safra, em 36 horas. O capítulo 5 discute a influência das pectinas na remoção da adstringência de caquis \"Giombo\" sob o armazenamento refrigerado a 5?C. Os resultados indicaram que não houve interação das pectinas com os taninos solúveis na remoção da adstringência, pois mesmo com a redução da firmeza de polpa e aumento da solubilização das pectinas, o índice de adstringência e o teor de taninos solúveis permaneceram elevados nos frutos não destanizados. No capítulo 6 é apresentada a influência das temperaturas (1, 5 e 10?C) de armazenamento na qualidade de caquis \"Giombo\" destanizados tratados ou não com 1-MCP. A qualidade foi melhor preservada quando os frutos foram destanizados e tratados com 1-MCP e armazenados a 1ºC por até 35 dias. Os frutos que foram apenas destanizados tiveram a estrutura celular do mesocarpo e a firmeza mais alteradas em todas as temperaturas analisadas. Provavelmente, a temperatura de 5ºC torna os frutos mais susceptíveis a danos por frio com redução drástica da firmeza e alterações estruturais. / This study purpose was the comparison between the physiological and structural changes of astringent persimmons (PVA) and non-astringent (PCNA) from the start of development to advanced maturation. Furthermore, postharvest treatments of deastringency were made and tested for different storage conditions at \"Giombo\". This work is presented in six Chapters, and the last five chapters refer to experiments conducted between 2010 and 2013. Chapter 2 describes the development of persimmons \"Giombo\" (PVA) and \"Fuyu\" (PCNA). It was observed that the differentiation of tannin cells and the accumulation process of tannin in vacuole did not vary among cultivars, but there was a significant difference in the density of tannin cells and soluble tannins. Chapter 3 presents the comparative study of seven stages of ripening persimmons \"Giombo\" and \"Rojo Brillante\" (PVA), and \"Fuyu\" and \"Hana Fuyu\" (PCNA). Reduction of mesocarp firmness of both groups of persimmons is related to maturation advance and not due to natural loss of astringency. Antioxidant capacity and total soluble solids of persimmons from both groups indicate a possible relation with the natural loss of astringency, once only PVA cultivars showed astringency decrease during ripening. The tannins delimited in tannin cells for the test with vanillin hydrochloric, and the contents of the vacuole with alveolus aspect observed by Cryo-SEM may be related to tannin polymerization during fruit ripening. In the experiment described in Chapter 4, persimmons \"Giombo\" from late and early harvest were submitted to different periods of exposure to ethanol (1.70 mL kg-1). Fruits obtained at late harvest presented index astringency and soluble tannin content suitable for consumption within 24 hours, while early harvest in 36 hours. Chapter 5 regards to the influence of pectins in astringency removal of persimmons \"Giombo\" under cold storage at 5?C. Results indicated no interaction of pectins with soluble tannins astringency removal, because even with the reduction of flesh firmness and increased solubilization of pectins, the index of astringency and soluble tannins remained high in fruits not deastringenced. The influence of temperature (1, 5 and 10?C) storage on the quality of persimmons \"Giombo\" treated or not with 1-MCP is presented in Chapter 6. Better quality was observed when the fruits were deastringenced, treated with 1-MCP and stored at 1°C for up to 35 days. Fruits that had been only deastringenced had bigger changes on their mesocarp cellular structure and firmness at all temperatures experimented. The temperature of 5°C may be responsible for making fruitsmore susceptible to chilling injury with structural changes and a drastic reduction of the firmness.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao_Juliana_Girardon.pdf: 735964 bytes, checksum: 63e3eac19eea956ffade85e6e6de5e54 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2011-03-25 / This study aimed to investigate four forced-moulting methods on productive performance and egg quality of brown-egg layers. A total of 448 100 week-old laying hens were fed experimental diets during 148 days (from August to December of 2009). The experimental design was a completely randomized block design, with 16 replicates per treatment. Treatments consisted of: 1) fasting during 14 days; 2) soybean hulls based diet; 3) wheat bran based diet and 4) High tannin sorghum based diet. A post-moulting corn-soybean meal basal diet, formulated to fulfill nutrient requirement of birds was fed to the animals. Hens fed alternative ingredient based diets showed better performance. Productive performance, viability and decrease in egg production were similar between hens fed the soybean hulls based diet and those exposed to fasting. Birds fed high tannin showed lower mortality, but showed a lower egg production. Birds fed alternative ingredients showed 12% egg production at 6 days after the beginning of the experiment. These results indicate that hens fed alternative ingredient sources showed better performance than those exposed to fasting at the end of the first productive cycle. / Objetivou-se avaliar e verificar o desempenho produtivo, a eficiência da muda forçada e a qualidade dos ovos de poedeiras comerciais semipesadas de linhagem comercial, com 100 semanas de idade inicial, submetidas a quatro métodos nutricionais de muda forçada. O experimento foi realizado entre agosto de 2009 em dezembro de 2009, compreendendo 142 dias experimentais, utilizando-se 448 aves. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi completamente casualizado, com quatro tratamentos distribuídos por sorteio dentro das baterias, compostos por: 1) jejum de 14 dias; 2) ração à base de casca de soja; 3) ração à base de farelo de trigo e 4) ração à base de sorgo alto tanino, sendo cada tratamento com 16 repetições. As aves foram distribuídas em 64 gaiolas com sete aves em cada. A dieta basal do pós muda foi formulada à base de milho e farelo de soja, com níveis nutricionais estabelecidos pelo manual da linhagem de acordo com a fase produtiva. Foi observado melhor desempenho durante a muda, nas aves que receberam dietas alternativas. Para as variáveis produtivas analisadas, viabilidade do lote e queda de postura, as aves que receberam alimentação à base de casca de soja tiveram desempenho semelhante ao das aves em jejum, quando comparadas aos animais que receberam os demais alimentos. O uso de sorgo com alto tanino reduziu de forma notável a mortalidade entre as aves, entretanto não tem o efeito desejado sobre a redução na taxa de postura. Com níveis de postura considerados de 12%, as aves submetidas aos protocolos alternativos atingiram este nível em aproximadamente seis dias após o início da muda forçada. Assim, é possível substituir o método convencional de muda (jejum prolongado), por métodos alternativos que não são tão degradantes fisiologicamente e nem no bem estar animal para as poedeiras comerciais no fim do primeiro ciclo produtivo.

Polyphénols végétaux traités par voie humide : synthèse de carbones biosourcés hautement poreux et applications / Natural phenolic materials treated by a wet path : synthesis of bioresourced carbons highly porous and applications

Braghiroli, Flavia Lega 01 December 2014 (has links)
Les ressources renouvelables sont considérées comme des alternatives durables, et parfois moins chères, aux matières premières d'origine pétrochimique. Dans cette thèse, on a utilisé du tanin provenant d’écorces de Mimosa comme précurseur de matériaux carbonés. La synthèse de ces nouveaux matériaux carbonés comprend un processus en deux étapes: la première étape est un traitement hydrothermal à des températures modérées, de 180 à 200°C, ce qui permet l'enrichissement en carbone ainsi que la fixation des hétéroatomes et la production de différentes morphologies: microsphères ou gels. La deuxième étape est une carbonisation à une température plus élevée, à savoir 900°C, ce qui permet d'augmenter la surface spécifique, la porosité ainsi que la conductivité électrique. La préparation d’un carbone poreux présentant des mésopores parfaitement définis en taille et dans leur organisation a été réalisée en associant le tanin, précurseur de carbone, à un tensio-actif structurant de la porosité, le copolymère Pluronic F127. Ces nouveaux matériaux carbonés ont été testés comme des électrodes de supercondensateur / Renewable resources are considered as sustainable, and sometimes cheaper, alternatives to substitute raw materials of petrochemical origin. We used tannins extracted from Mimosa barks. Tannin is an attractive precursor to synthesize new organic porous materials due to the presence of highly reactive phenolic molecules. The synthesis of these new carbon materials from tannin comprises a two-step process: the first step is a hydrothermal carbonization at moderate temperatures, 180-200°C, which allows obtaining a hydrochar, richer in carbon, and fixing other heteroatoms. These hydrochars present different morphologies as powder or gel. The second step is a carbonization at higher temperature (900°C), which allows increasing surface area (SBET), porosity as well as improving conductivity. The preparation of a porous carbon presenting mesopores perfectly defined in size and in their organization was realized by associating tannin, as carbon precursor, with a surfactant for porosity templating, the copolymer Pluronic F127. These new carbon materials were tested as electrodes of supercapacitor

Élaboration et caractérisation mécanique de panneaux de particules de tige de kénaf et de bioadhésifs à base de colle d'os, de tannin ou de mucilage / Development and mechanical characterisation of particleboards from kenaf core and bone, tannin or mucilage based bioadhesives

Nenonene, Amen 10 July 2009 (has links)
La toxicité des émissions de formaldéhyde rejetées par les panneaux de particules à base de résines contenant du formaldéhyde motive la recherche de liants alternatifs notamment d’origine naturelle. Ce travail porte sur l’élaboration par thermopressage et la caractérisation physico-mécanique de panneaux de particules sans ou à faibles rejets de formaldéhyde à partir des tiges de kénaf (Hibiscus cannabinus) et de la colle d’os ou de liants végétaux riches en tannins ou en mucilage de plantes tropicales. L’utilisation de ces bioadhésifs a permis d’obtenir des panneaux de bonne résistance en flexion (370 = MOE = 3100 MPa ; 2,01 = MOR = 23 MPa). Un procédé peut être envisagé pour une production de ces panneaux utilisables comme matériaux de construction écologiques / The proven toxicity of lignocellulosic composites based on urea-formaldehyde, phenol-formaldehyde type resins by their formaldehyde emissions cause environmental health problems. A study has been carried out to enhance the development of particleboards of low density with few formaldehyde emissions manufactured with Hibiscus cannabinus core reinforcements and matrix of bone adhesive or tannin material from pod of Parkia biglobosa, stem barks of Pithecellobium dulce and foliar sheath of Sorghum caudatum or mucilaginous material from calyx of Bombax costatum and stem barks of Grewia venusta. Vegetable materials were employed in rough powders or extracts forms, or in mixture with the bone adhesive. The results obtained reveal that bone adhesive was as valuable as the urea formaldehyde resin for manufacturing particleboard with good mechanical properties (MOE: 541 MPa, MOR: 5.23, IB: 0.58 MPa). Tannin and mucilaginous rough materials gave particleboards with bending modulus of elasticity (MOE) ranging from 370 to 400 MPa, bending modulus of rupture (MOR) varying from 2.01 to 3.17 MPa and internal bond (IB) going from 0.06 to 0.28 MPa. Those plant extracts leaded to particleboards with variable mechanical properties (MOE: 484 –1100 MPa, MOR: 2.36 – 5.66 MPa and IB: 0.11 – 0.46 MPa) depending of the nature of the adhesive. Tannin based adhesive gave particleboards more valuable than mucilaginous ones. The association of the bone adhesive with the rough or the extracts of the plants material improved the mechanical characteristics of the panels

Biokonvertering av Brödavfall till Svampfilmer för Textila Applikationer / Bioconversion of Bread Waste to Fungal Films for Textile Applications

Syed, Samira January 2023 (has links)
Bread waste represents a significant portion of global food waste, necessitating innovative approaches for its valorization. This research project explores the utilization of bread waste through fermentation with Aspergillus oryzae to produce fungal film which could be used for textile applications. While previous studies have examined various applications of food waste, this project specifically targets the textile industry, aiming to mitigate pollution associated with conventional textile manufacturing. The objective of this project was to investigate the feasibility of creating fungal films derived from bread waste. Additionally, to analyze the material's properties through assessments of tensile strength, microscopic analysis, and the identification of an appropriate methodology for this investigation. The biomass suspension was prepared using an ultrafine grinder, and a kitchen blender was subsequently employed to minimize the presence of remaining solids from the grinding process. Additionally, a range of strategies for film casting and wet laying were implemented and evaluated. Wet laying involved combining fungal biomass with tannin to mimic the characteristics of leather. On the other hand, casting utilized pre-treated biomass suspension to assess the formation and quality of the films. As the research progressed and different tannins were used to treat the biomass, a methodology was developed, and glycerol was introduced as a plasticizer. Furthermore, nanocellulose was later incorporated exclusively for the casting of the films to serve as a binder. The films that were produced gave interesting results are observed in casted sheets containing nanocellulose and glycerol-infused biomass (3% BM + 2% Cellulose + 0.13 g Glycerol), exhibiting exceptional tensile strength (35.1 ± 3.42 MPa) and elongation (16.7 ± 5.98%). Wet laid biomass sheets treated with Tara and glycerol display tensile strength (19.9 ± 3.55 MPa) and elongation (6.66 ± 3.02%). These findings signify the potential for developing fungal films from bread waste, necessitating further research to refine methodologies. Overall, this research project paves the way for future advancements in fungal films derived from bread waste. By investigating the use of Aspergillus oryzae and employing wet laying and casting techniques, the project establishes a foundation for sustainable textile production. The successful utilization of bread waste not only addresses the issue of food waste but also contributes to reducing pollution in the textile industry.

Utveckling av läderliknande material från svampbiomassa : Odlingsförhållanden och effekter av garvning före och efter skörd / Development of leather-like materials from fungal biomass : Cultivation conditions and effects of tanning pre- and post harvest

Tenbrink, Johan, Svensson, Viktor January 2022 (has links)
Det slängs bröd i svenska matvarubutiker i Sverige samtidigt som läderproduktion är miljöförstörande. För att mildra miljöpåverkan av konventionell lädertillverkning och matsvinn i matvarubutiker odlades filamentös svamp på brödrester för att användas som ett miljövänligt alternativ till animaliskt läder. Detta arbete undersöker ifall en ny typ av läder-liknande material kan förbättras genom att tillsätta växt-tanniner och andra naturliga ämnen till filamentös svampbiomassa vid olika steg i tillverkningsprocessen. Den filamentösa svampen Rhizopus delemar odlades med hydrolyserade brödrester från matvarubutiker som substrat, och fyra olika växt-tanniner tillsattes odlingsmediumen (Tara, Myrobalan, Quebracho, Kastanje). Av de tannin-behandlade biomassorna uppvisade material som behandlats med tara tannin efter skörd av biomassan mest läderliknande mekaniska egenskaper (dragstyrka och förlängning) medan ren, obehandlad biomassa uppvisade högst dragstyrka av alla testade material. Additionen av tanniner ökade töjningsförmågan samtidigt som dragstyrkan minskade hos de resulterande materialen. Behandling med den naturliga tvärbindaren genipin resulterade i ökad dragstyrka och förlängning för flera av materialen. Resultat från HPLC analys av odlingsmediet med tara tannin indikerade även att Rhizopus delemar använde tanninet som substrat. / Bread is thrown away in Swedish grocery stores in Sweden at the same time as leather production is environmentally destructive. In order to mitigate the environmental impact of conventional leather making and to reduce food waste, fungal mycelium was grown on bread waste to be utilized as an eco-friendly leather substitute. This work investigates whether this new type of leather-like material can be improved by adding vegetable tannins and other natural compounds to filamentous fungal biomass at different stages of the production process. The filamentous fungus Rhizopus delemar was grown in shake flasks with hydrolyzed bread as substrate and four different plant tannins were added to the growth mediums. (Tara, Myrobalan, Quebracho, Chestnut). Tara and myrobalan were not inhibitory for growth during the shake flask cultivation, so they were further used in a scaled-up cultivation using 4 L bubble column reactors. However, myrobalan tannin was inhibitory when cultivating in 4 L bubble column reactors. Out of the tannin-treated biomasses, materials treated with tara tannin post cultivation exhibited the highest mechanical properties (tensile strength and elongation), while pure, untreated biomass exhibited the highest tensile strength of all materials tested. Overall, the addition of tannins to the biomasses increased the elongational capacities while lowering the tensile strengths. Treatment with the natural crosslinking-agent genipin resulted in increased average tensile strength and elongation at break for several of the materials tested. Furthermore, HPLC analysis of culture medium containing tara tannin indicated that Rhizopus delemar was able to metabolize the tannin and use it as a substrate.

Tanino como macromonômero na síntese de polímeros fenólicos visando a preparação de compósitos reforçados com material de origem vegetal / Tannin as substitute of phenols in the formulation of phenolic resins for the processing of composites reinforced with material from renewable source

Barbosa Junior, Vilmar 23 March 2007 (has links)
No presente trabalho, tanino (macromolécula de origem natural) foi utilizado como substituinte de fenol na formulação de matriz fenólica usada na preparação de compósitos, o que é possível devido à presença de anéis fenólicos sua estrutura. Os compósitos de matriz taninofenólica (50% em massa de tanino) apresentaram propriedades mecânicas superiores aquelas dos compósitos de matriz fenólica, quando reforçados pelo mesmo tipo de fibra, mostrando que a substituição de material obtido em larga escala a partir de fonte fóssil (fenol) é viável e pode ser feita por material obtido de fonte renovável (tanino) sem comprometimento de propriedades. Ainda, avaliou-se para propriedades de compósitos com diferentes tipos de reforços (fibras e cargas) através de caracterizações via análise térmica (TG e DSC), análise dinâmico-mecânica, espectroscopia na região do infravermelho, resistência ao impacto, absorção de água e microscopia eletrônica de varredura. Os ensaios de resistência ao impacto indicaram uma melhora de propriedades mecânicas quando da incorporação de fibras vegetais (juta e coco) nos termorrígidos fenólico e taninofenólico, além de mostrar que as fibras de juta reforçam as matrizes taninofenólicas mais eficientemente que as fibras de coco. As cascas da árvore de Acácia Negra, ricas em taninos, também foram utilizadas como agentes de reforço em compósitos na forma de fibras e cargas, obtidos através de desfibramento e pulverização, respectivamente. A utilização destes reforços, em diferentes proporções de massa, em compósitos de matriz taninofenólica (50% de tanino) levou a diferenças nas propriedades do compósito, com destaque para baixa absorção de água. Provavelmente, a presença de taninos no reforço e na matriz levou a intensas interações na interface fibra/matriz, diminuindo o número de vazios que podem alojar moléculas de água. As fibras de coco foram tratadas por ultra-som, a fim de avaliar a influência deste tratamento nas propriedades da fibra e dos compósitos reforçados por elas. As fibras de coco tratadas e não-tratadas foram caracterizadas quanto à composição química, índice de cristalinidade, ensaio de tração e microscopia eletrônica de varredura. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que o ultra-som é um tratamento promissor, pois modifica a morfologia da superfície das fibras sem levar à degradação química, sendo que a separação dos feixes de fibra que ocorre permite melhor interação fibra/matriz na interface, obtendo-se assim compósitos mais resistentes à água. Outros tratamentos utilizados em trabalhos anteriores a este, como mercerização, diminuem absorção de água dos compósitos por ela reforçados, ao custo de parcial degradação das fibras lignocelulósicas. No presente trabalho, materiais preparados a partir de matéria-prima oriunda de fontes renováveis foram processados, o que vem de encontro aos anseios atuais. Os compósitos obtidos têm potencial para aplicações não estruturais, por exemplo, em partes internas de veículos automotivos. / In the present work, tannin (macromolecule obtained from natural source) was used as substitute of phenol in the formulation of phenolic matrix composites, due to the presence of phenolic rings in its structure. The tanninphenolic matrix composites (50% w/w of tannin) presented mechanical properties better than those of phenolic matrix composites showing that substitution of material obtained in large scale from non-renewable source (phenol) can be done by material obtained from natural source (tannin) without compromising the properties of the composite. The tanninphenolic matrix composites reinforced by different reinforcing agents (fibers and particules) were characterized by different techniques: Izod impact strength, thermogravimetry (TG), differential scanning calorymetry (DSC), infrared spectroscopy (IV), dynamic-mechanical analysis (DMA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The Izod impact strength showed an improvement of mechanical properties due to the incorporation of natural fibres (jute and coir) in the phenolic and tanninphenolic matrices and also the better reinforcement of these matrices by jute fibres, when compared to coir fibres. The barks of Acacia Mimosa (high content of tannin) were also used as reinforcing agents of the tanninphenolic matrices in the forms of fibres and particules. The presence of these reinforcing agents in the matrix led to differences in the properties of the composites, highlighted by its lower water uptake. The presence of tannins in both reinforcing agents and matrix enhanced the fiber/matrix interactions, lowering the voids that increase water uptake. The coir fibres were treated by ultrasound, in order to evaluate the influence of this treatment in the properties of the fibres and, therefore, the composites reinforced with them. Besides chemical composition, all the fibres were characterized by the following techniques: X-ray diffraction, tensile strengh, infrared spectroscopy (IV), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results revealed that the ultrasound is a promising treatment of fibres for the processing of composites, because it modifies the morphology of the surface of fibres without leading them to chemical degradation. The separation of fiber beams allows enhancement of the fiber/matrix interactions, leading to composites with lower water absorption capacity. Other treatments, such as mercerization, for example, improved the impregnation of the fibres by the pre-polymer, leading to composites with better properties, at expenses of partial degradation of lignocellullosic fibres. In the present work, composites were prepared using material obtained from renewable source, according to the purpose of this work. The obtained composites presents potential for non-structural applications, such as, internal panels of cars, for example.

Emprego de coagulante à base de tanino em sistema de pós-tratamento de efluente de reator UASB por flotação / Use of tannin-based coagulant in exhaust post-treatment of UASB reactor effluent by flotation

Pelegrino, Eloá Cristina Figueirinha 03 June 2011 (has links)
O presente trabalho teve como objetivo principal a avaliação da eficiência de remoção de carga orgânica, fósforo e sólidos em suspensão de sistema de flotação tratando esgoto sanitário pré-tratado em reatores UASB, da ETE Monjolinho da cidade de São Carlos/SP, e coagulado com tanino associado ou não a polímeros sintéticos. Os ensaios com variação de dosagem de coagulante Tanino e polímeros (polímero catiônico, polímero não-iônico e polímero aniônico) foram realizados em escala de laboratório, com o uso do equipamento flotateste. Em todos os ensaios foram fixados os valores de gradiente de velocidade na mistura rápida (800/s) e na floculação (90/s), ao tempos de detenção na mistura rápida (20 s) e na floculação (15 min) e, a pressão de saturação 5 Bar e a razão de recirculação (17%). Durante os ensaios com unidade de flotação em escala de bancada foram avaliados três valores de velocidades de flotação: 12,0 cm/min, 16,0 cm/min e 20,0 cm/min. Os ensaios foram divididos em duas fases: a fase 1 teve como objetivo analisar a resposta do sistema de flotação com o emprego do coagulante Tanino no tratamento do efluente do reator UASB da ETE Monjolinho (fase 1A) e também determinar as duas dosagens do coagulante Tanino mais adequadas para o tratamento do efluente de UASB da ETE Monjolinho para cada polímero testado (fase 1B). As fases 1A e 1B foram realizadas com efluente coletado às 8:00 h e 14:00 h, respectivamente. A fase 2 teve como objetivo a busca da dosagem ótima de tanino dentro de uma faixa mais estreita de valores, assim como a verificação do melhor tipo e dosagem de polímero sintético (não-iônico, aniônico e catiônico) para ser associado ao coagulante tanino. Na fase 1A, verificou-se que a flotação foi efetiva para remoção de cor aparente mesmo para dosagem nula de coagulante Tanino. Quanto à turbidez, verificou-se efeito marcante da adição de dosagem crescente de coagulante no aumento da eficiência de remoção desse parâmetro. Após a obtenção dos resultados da fase 1B, foram escolhidas para a fase 2 as duas menores dosagens de coagulante capazes de promover redução da turbidez em pelo menos 85%. Além destas duas dosagens, foram avaliados na fase 2 outras 3 dosagens compreendidas entre elas. Sendo assim, na fase 2 foram estudadas as doses de 65, 75, 85, 95 e 105 mg/L de coagulante, cada qual associada a seis dosagens de cada um dos polímeros estudados. Entre os tratamentos empregados, pôde-se verificar maior eficácia do polímero não-iônico e do polímero catiônico para o tratamento por flotação, associado ao coagulante tanino. O conjunto de dosagem de coagulante tanino e polímero mais vantajoso, ou seja, menor dosagem de tanino que, associada a polímero, apresentou remoção satisfatória dos parâmetros estudados, foi 65 mg/L de Tanino e 2,0 mg/L de polímero catiônico, atingindo remoções de 95,2% de turbidez (Residual de 3,65 NTU), 82,1% de cor aparente (Residual de 98 mgPT/L), 49,2% de fósforo total (Residual de 3,2 mg/L), 80,7% de DQO (Residual de 25 mg/L) e 87,9 % de SST (Residual de 13 mg/L) nas condições encontradas na época dos ensaios, para o pós-tratamento por flotação de efluente de reator UASB da ETE Monjolinho, São Carlos/SP. / The main objective of this work is the evaluation of the efficiency of removal of organic load, phosphorus and suspended solids in the flotation system treating domestic wastewater pretreated in UASB reactors, of the Monjolinho Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) of Sao Carlos, SP and clotted with tannin alone or combined with synthetic polymers. Tests varying tannin dosage of coagulant and polymer (cationic polymer, nonionic polymer and anionic polymer) were performed on a batch scale, using flotatest. In all the tests were fixed the values of rapid mix (800/s) and flocculation (90/s) velocity gradients, the rapid mix (20 s) and flocculation (15 min) times, saturation pressure (5 Bar) and recycle rate (17%). During the test in the flotation bench scale unity three values of flotation velocities were evaluated: 12.0 cm/min, 16.0 cm/min and 20.0 cm/min. The tests were divided in two phases: the objective of phase 1 was to examine the response of the flotation system with the use of tannin coagulant in the treatment of Monjolinho WWTP UASB effluent (Phase 1A) and also determine the two most suitable dosages of tannin coagulant for the treatment of wastewater from the Monjolinho WWTP UASB tested for each polymer (phase 1B). Phases 1A and 1B were performed with wastewater collected at 8:00 h and 14:00 h, respectively. The objective of phase 2 was to find the optimum dosage of tannin within a narrower range of values, as well as verification of the optimal type and dosage of synthetic polymer (non-ionic, anionic and cationic) to be associated with the tannin coagulant. In phase 1A, it was found that flotation was effective for apparent color removal even to zero coagulant dosage tannin. As for turbidity, there is a marked effect when increasing the coagulant dose, which increased the removal efficiency of this parameter. After obtaining the results of Phase 1B, were chosen for phase 2 two low coagulant dosages which can promote reduction of turbidity by 85%. Besides the two dosages obtained in phase 1B, in phase 2 were evaluated other three between them. Thus, in phase 2 were studied coagulant doses of 65, 75, 85, 95 and 105 mg/L, each one associated with six doses of each one of the studied polymers. Among the treatments employed, it could be seen that the non-ionic polymer and the cationic polymer were the most efficient for treatment by coagulation associated with tannin in flotation. The set of tannin coagulant dosage and polymer which showed satisfactory removal of parameters was 65 mg/L of Tannin with 2.0 mg/L of cationic polymer, reaching 95.2% removal of turbidity, 83% of color apparent, 49.2% of total phosphorus, COD 80.7% and 87.9% of TSS under the conditions found at the time of testing, for post-treatment of Monjolinho WWTP UASB effluent by flotation.

Etude de l’extraction de tanins d’écorce de pin maritime pour l’élaboration de colles tanin-lignosulfonate / Study of maritime pine bark extraction for the preparation of tannin-lignosulfonate adhesives

Chupin, Lucie 07 November 2014 (has links)
Cette étude a deux objectifs principaux : l’extraction de tanins condensés d’écorces de pin maritime et la formulation de colles tanin-lignosulfonate. Deux méthodes d’extraction ont été étudiées. La première est une extraction à l’eau chaude ; c’est une technique simple, peu coûteuse, sans solvant. La deuxième est une extraction assistée par micro-ondes ; c’est une technique innovante, rapide et peu consommatrice en solvant. L’optimisation des conditions d’extraction à l’eau chaude a été réalisée. Les extraits ont été caractérisés par des dosages colorimétriques, leur réactivité au formaldéhyde, par infrarouge à transformée de Fourier (IRTF), par chromatographie en phase liquide à haute pression, par 1H RMN et 2D HSQC RMN. L’impact de la granulométrie sur l’extraction de polyphénols et particulièrement de tanins condensés par extraction assistée par micro-ondes a été étudié pour la première fois. Les deux types d’extraction ont été comparés. L’extraction assistée par micro-ondes a un rendement en extractibles inférieur à l’extraction à l’eau chaude. Mais elle extrait plus de tanins condensés, de flavonoïdes simples et plus de sucres. Quelle que soit la méthode d’extraction, les tanins condensés majoriatires extraits de l’écorce de pin maritime sont de la catéchine, de l’épicatéchine, de l’épicatéchine gallate et de l’épigallocatéchine. Des colles tanin-lignosulfonate ont été produites en utilisant l’héxaméthylènetetramine comme durcisseur. Dans un premier temps, des tanins de mimosa ont été utilisés avec des lignosulfonates de sodium et des lignosulfonates d’ammonium. Les lignosulfonates ont subi deux traitements au glyoxal qui ont été comparés par analyse thermogravimétrique (ATG), par calorimétrie différentielle à balayage (DSC), par les propriétés thermiques et mécaniques de colles et de panneaux de particules avec des lignosulfonates ayant subi les deux traitements ont également été étudiées. L’optimisation du ratio tanin de mimosa-lignosulfonate glyoxalé a été menée et les propriétés thermiques des colles mesurées. L’optimisation des conditions de pressage de panneaux de particules a été réalisée. Des panneaux de particules avec de bonnes performances mécaniques ont été fabriqués. Des colles à base de tanins d’écorce de pin maritime et de lignosulfonates ont été réalisées avec 40% de tanins et 60% de lignosulfonates. Ces colles ont été caractérisées par IRTF, analyse thermomécanique, ATG et DSC. Ces colles sont rentrées dans la fabrication de panneaux de particules. Les émissions de formaldéhyde et la cohésion interne des panneaux ont été mesurées et comparées à des panneaux encollés avec une colle tanin de mimosa-lignosulfonate et une résine urée-formaldéhyde. Grâce à ces résultats, il a été possible de montrer que les panneaux de particules fabriqués à partir de colles bio-sourcées n’émettaient pas de formaldéhyde. / This study has two main objectives: the extraction of condensed tannins from maritime pine bark and the preparation of tannin-lignosulfonate adhesives. Two extraction methods were studied. The first is hot water extraction which is a simple, cheap method without the use of an organic solvent. The second is microwave-assisted extraction which is a fast, innovative method using only a small amount of solvent. Optimum extraction conditions were determined for hot water extraction. The extracts were characterised by their reaction to formaldehyde and by using colorimetric tests, Fourier Transformed Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), high pressure liquid chromatography, 1H NMR and heteronuclear single quantum correlation 2D NMR.. The two types of extraction were compared. It was found that microwave-assisted extraction produced a lower yield of extractibles than the hot water method but that it produced more condensed tannins, simple flavonoids and sugars. The condensed tannins extracted from maritime pine bark are catechin, epicatechin, epicatechin gallate and epigallocatechin, whatever the extraction method used. Tannin-lignosulfonate adhesives were produced using hexamethylenetetramine as a hardener. First, mimosa tannins were used with sodium lignosulfonates and ammonium lignosulfonates. The lignosulfonates underwent two glyoxal treatments which were compared using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and by determining the thermal and mechanical properties of the adhesives and of the particle boards made using the lignosulfonates resulting from the two treatments. The optimum mimosa tannin-glyoxalated lignosulfonate ratio was determined and the thermal properties of the adhesives were measured. The optimum conditions of pressing the particle boards were determined. Particle boards which recorded a good mechanical performance were produced. Adhesives using maritime pine bark tannins and lignosulfonates were prepared with 40% tannins and 60% lignosulfonates. These adhesives were characterised using FTIR, thermomechanical analysis, TGA and DSC. These adhesives were used to produce particle boards. The emission of formaldehyde and the internal bond of the boards were measured and compared to those of boards made with a mimosa tannin-lignosulfonate adhesive and to those of boards made with a urea-formaldehyde resin. Thanks to these results, we were able to produce particleboards with bio-based adhesives that didn’t emit formaldehyde.
