Pesquisa do estado de Minas Gerais (FAPEMIG) / O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar o efeito do uso de composto org?nico de ind?stria de fia??o e tecelagem sobre a qualidade do substrato e crescimento de esp?cies arb?reas do cerrado em uma cascalheira no munic?pio de Diamantina, MG. A disserta??o foi estruturada em quatro cap?tulos. O primeiro refere-se ? revis?o bibliogr?fica visando o entendimento dos conceitos que foram abordados no estudo. No segundo capitulo, a influ?ncia do composto no substrato foi avaliada por meio das altera??es nos atributos qu?micos (pH, mat?ria org?nica (MO), soma de bases (SB), CTC, satura??o por bases (V), f?sforo (P), pot?ssio (K), c?lcio (Ca2+), magn?sio (Mg2+), acidez troc?vel (Al3+), acidez potencial (H + Al) e satura??o por alum?nio (m)) e f?sicos (resist?ncia mec?nica a penetra??o (Rp) e granulometria) do substrato. Foi avaliada tamb?m a atividade microbiana: carbono da biomassa microbiana (CBM) respira??o microbiana (C-CO2) e quociente metab?lico (qCO2) ap?s aplica??o de cinco tratamentos: sem aplica??o de composto org?nico e diferentes concentra??es 0,0; 4,5; 9,0; 18,0 e 36,0 g dm-3 por cova. O delineamento foi sistem?tico tipo ?leque? sendo os tratamentos dispostos em tr?s blocos casualizados. A adi??o do composto proporcionou o aumento nos valores de pH, MO, SB, CTC, V e nutrientes (P, K, Ca2+ e Mg2+) e promoveu a redu??o de Al3+, H + Al e m. O substrato minerado apresentou valores elevados de Rp indicando a compacta??o na ?rea degradada pela extra??o de cascalho, mesmo ap?s a aplica??o do composto. A adi??o de doses crescentes do composto promoveu o aumento significativo de CBM e C-CO2 ao substrato minerado. O maior valor de qCO2 indicou efici?ncia da biomassa microbiana com a incorpora??o das menores doses do composto ao substrato quando comparado ao controle. O terceiro cap?tulo refere-se ao estudo do crescimento das esp?cies nativas Kielmeyera lathrophyton Saddi (Pau santo), Plathymenia reticulata Benth (Vinh?tico), Dalbergia miscolobium Benth (Jacarand? do cerrado) e Bowdichia virgilioides Kunth (Sucupira-preta) plantadas em delineamento sistem?tico tipo ?leque? submetidas a cinco tratamentos: sem aplica??o de composto org?nico e diferentes doses de composto 0,0; 4,5; 9,0; 18,0 e 36,0 g dm-3 por cova dispostos em tr?s blocos casualizados. Ap?s 12 meses, verificou-se que n?o houve diferen?a significativa entre os tratamentos para sobreviv?ncia e incremento em altura, di?metro e cobertura de copa para cada esp?cie. Ainda, de forma preliminar foi poss?vel determinar que a adi??o de 4,5 g dm-3 de composto na cova proporcionou maiores valores de incremento em altura, di?metro e cobertura de copa para Plathymenia reticulata e Bowdichia virgilioides.

The dissertation was structured in four chapters. Being the first, regarding the bibliographical revision seeking the understanding of the concepts and theoretical questions of what was borded in the study. In the second I chapter, the influence of the compound in the substratum was evaluated through the alterations in the chemical attributes (pH, organic matter (MO), sum of bases (SB), CTC, saturation for bases (V), match (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+), exchangeable acidity (Al3+), potential acidity (H + Al) and saturation for aluminum (m)) and physical (mechanical resistance the penetration (Rp) and texture) of the substratum. As well as in the microbial activity of the same: carbon of the microbial biomass (CBM) microbial breathing (C-CO2) and metabolic quotient (qCO2) after application of five treatments: without application of organic composition and different concentrations 0; 4,5; 9,0; 18,0 and 36,0 g dm-3 for hole. The delineation was systematic type "fan" being the treatments disposed in three blocks unexpected. The addition of the compound stimulated the increase in the pH values, MO, SB, CTC, V and nutritious (P, K, Ca2+ and Mg2+) and it promoted the reduction of Al3+, H + Al and m. The mined substratum presented high values of Rp indicating the compactation in the area degraded by the gravel extraction, even after the application of the composed. The addition of growing doses of the compound promoted the significant increase of CBM and C-CO2 to the mined substratum. The largest qCO2 value indicated efficiency of the microbial biomass with the incorporation of the smallest dosages of the compound to the substratum when compared to the control. The third chapter, refers to the study of the growth of the native species Kielmeyera lathrophyton Saddi (sacred Wood), Plathymenia reticulata Benth (Vinh?tico), Dalbergia miscolobium Benth (Jacaranda of the Thicket) and Bowdichia virgilioides Kunth (Sucupira-black) planted in delineation systematic type " fan " submitted to five treatments: without application of organic composition and different doses of compound 0,0; 4,5; 9,0; 18,0 and 36,0 g dm-3 for hole disposed in three blocks unexpected. After 12 months, it was verified that there was not significant difference among the treatments for survival and increment in height, diameter and top covering for each species. Still, in a preliminary way it was possible to determine that the addition of 45 g dm-3 of compound of organic residue of textile industry in the hole stimulated larger increment values in height, diameter and top covering for Plathymenia reticulata and Bowdichia virgilioides. In the fourth chapter, the planting was made in line of Chamaecrista debilis submitted to four treatments, 0,0; 30,0; 60,0 and 120,0 g dm-3 compound dm-3 as fertilizer for hole, disposed in three blocks inexpected. The results indicated that there was not significant difference among compound applied for increment in height and diameter. The largest increment value in height and diameter happened without the addition and with the application of 60,0 g dm-3 of compound of organic residue of textile industry, however it is necessary the accomplishment of future evaluations. The survival rate presented significant decrease with the application of the largest doses of organic compund. The species Chamaecrista debilis presented important characteristics for recovery of degraded area, as fast growth and biomass production.

In soils with a predominance of low activity clays and oxides in their mineral fraction, the P fixation through the processes of adsorption and precipitation makes phosphorus nutrition a limiting factor for production of most cultivable species. The anion citrate derived from citric acid dissociation of the soil has high metal complexing power. Furthermore, its negative charge ensures an affinity with the positive charges of the oxides in the soil, competing with phosphate for the same binding sites. In order to verify the potential of citric acid to increase the bioavailability for maize and to modify the forms of inorganic P in the soil, there had been tested the combination doses of 0, 45, 90 and 180 mg dm-3 of P in a Typic Quartzipsamment soil and 0; 100, 200 and 400 mg dm-3 of P in a Typic Hapludox soil, with doses of 0, 1, 2 and 4 kg ha-1 of citric acid in experiments conducted in pots under greenhouse conditions. In Typic Quartzipsamment soil, 119 mg dm-3 of P and an equivalent to 0.8 kg ha-1 of citric acid gave maximum growth of maize crops. In the Typic Hapludox soil, the estimated dose was 96 mg dm-3 of P and equivalent to 2.0 kg ha-1 of citric acid. The plant response to the application of citric acid was due to solubilization of less labile forms increasing the more labile forms of inorganic P in soil. The phosphorus content in the plant and those extracted by Mehlich-1 and Anion Exchange Resin were not correlated to the addition of citric acid in the Typic Hapludox soil.

Thus, these latter pollutants are very difficult to treat because of its high solubility in water. The objective of this work is to use and evaluate a microemulsioned system to remove metals ( K , Mg , Ba , Ca , Cr , Mn , Li , Fe ) of synthetic produced water. For the extraction of metals, it was used a pseudoternary diagram containing the following phases: synthetic produced water as the aqueous phase (AP), hexane as organic phase (OP), and a cosurfactant/surfactant ratio equal to four (C/S = 4) as the third phase, where the OCS (saponified coconut oil) was used as surfactant and n-butanol as cosurfactant. The synthetic produced water was prepared in a bench scale and the region of interest in the diagram for the removal of metals was determined by experimental design called. Ten points located in the phase Winsor II were selected in an area with a large amount of water and small amounts of reagents. The samples were analyzed in atomic absorption spectrometer, and the results were evaluated through a statistical assesment, allowing the efficiency analysis of the effects and their interactions. The results showed percentages of extraction above 90% for the metals manganese, iron, chromium, calcium, barium and magnesium, and around 45% for metals lithium and potassium. The optimal point for the simultaneous removal of metals was calculated using statistical artifact multiple response function (MR). This calculation showed that the point of greatest extraction of metals occurs was the J point, with the composition [72% AP, 9% OP, 19% C/S], obtaining a global extraction percentage about 80%. Considering the aspects analyzed, the microemulsioned system has shown itself to be an effective alternative in the extraction of metals on synthetic produced water remediation / A ?gua produzida ? um subproduto gerado na produ??o do petr?leo e possui uma grande quantidade de contaminantes, tais como part?culas de ?leo em suspens?o, compostos org?nicos e metais, sendo estes ?ltimos poluentes de dif?cil tratamento devido a sua alta solubilidade em ?gua. O objetivo deste trabalho ? utilizar e avaliar um sistema microemulsionado na extra??o de metais (K, Mg, Ba, Ca, Cr, Mn, Li, Fe) contidos na ?gua produzida. Utilizou-se um diagrama pseudotern?rio de um sistema contendo em sua composi??o: ?gua produzida sint?tica como fase aquosa (FA), hexano como fase org?nica (FO), e uma raz?o cotensoativo/tensoativo igual a quatro (C/T=4), sendo utilizado o OCS (?leo de coco saponificado) como tensoativo e n-butanol como cotensoativo. A ?gua produzida sint?tica foi preparada em escala de bancada e a regi?o de interesse para a remo??o dos metais foi determinada atrav?s do planejamento experimental de mistura, sendo escolhidos dez pontos localizados na fase de Winsor II, em uma ?rea com uma grande quantidade de ?gua e pouca quantidade de mat?ria ativa ou solvente. As amostras foram analisadas no espectr?metro de absor??o at?mica, e os resultados obtidos foram avaliados atrav?s de um tratamento estat?stico permitindo a an?lise da efici?ncia dos efeitos das vari?veis estudadas e suas intera??es. Os resultados apresentaram percentuais de extra??o acima de 90% para os metais mangan?s, ferro, cromo, c?lcio, b?rio e magn?sio, e em torno de 45% para o l?tio e o pot?ssio. O ponto ?timo para a remo??o simult?nea dos metais foi calculado atrav?s do recurso estat?stico de m?ltipla fun??o de resposta (MR). O c?lculo permitiu observar que o ponto onde ocorre o maior percentual de extra??o dos metais foi o ponto J com a composi??o [72% FA, 9% FO, 19% C/T], obtendo percentual de extra??o global em torno de 80% de todos os metais. Tendo em vista os aspectos analisados, o sistema microemulsionado estudado mostrou-se como uma eficiente alternativa na extra??o de metais de ?gua produzida sint?tica

This paper proposes a new mathematical tool for the higher-order cyclostationary analysis based on the correntropy function. Specifically, the cyclostationary analysis is revisited focusing on the information theory, while the Cyclic Correntropy Function (CCF) and Cyclic Correntropy Spectral Density (CCSD) are also defined. Besides, it is analytically proven that the CCF contains information regarding second- and higher-order cyclostationary moments, being a generalization of the CAF. The performance of the aforementioned new functions in the extraction of higher-order cyclostationary characteristics is analyzed in a wireless communication system where nongaussian noise exists.

Among these, the oil sludge is found produced during the production, transportation and refine phases. This work had the purpose to develop a process to recovery the oil present in oil sludge, in order to use the recovered oil as fuel or return it to the refining plant. From the preliminary tests, were identified the most important independent variables, like: temperature, contact time, solvents and acid volumes. Initially, a series of parameters to characterize the oil sludge was determined to characterize its. A special extractor was projected to work with oily waste. Two experimental designs were applied: fractional factorial and Doehlert. The tests were carried out in batch process to the conditions of the experimental designs applied. The efficiency obtained in the oil extraction process was 70%, in average. Oil sludge is composed of 36,2% of oil, 16,8% of ash, 40% of water and 7% of volatile constituents. However, the statistical analysis showed that the quadratic model was not well fitted to the process with a relative low determination coefficient (60,6%). This occurred due to the complexity of the oil sludge. To obtain a model able to represent the experiments, the mathematical model was used, the so called artificial neural networks (RNA), which was generated, initially, with 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 neurons in the hidden layer, 64 experimental results and 10000 presentations (interactions). Lesser dispersions were verified between the experimental and calculated values using 4 neurons, regarding the proportion of experimental points and estimated parameters. The analysis of the average deviations of the test divided by the respective training showed up that 2150 presentations resulted in the best value parameters. For the new model, the determination coefficient was 87,5%, which is quite satisfactory for the studied system / A ind?stria de petr?leo, em decorr?ncia de uma intensa atividade de explora??o e produ??o, ? respons?vel por grande parte da gera??o de res?duos, os quais s?o considerados t?xicos e poluentes ao meio ambiente. Dentre estes, encontra-se a borra oleosa formada durante as etapas de produ??o, transporte e refino de petr?leo. Este trabalho teve como prop?sito recuperar o ?leo presente na borra oleosa por processo de extra??o, a fim de que este pudesse ser utilizado como combust?vel ou retornar em alguma corrente do processo de refino. A partir dos ensaios preliminares foram selecionadas as vari?veis independentes que exercem maior influ?ncia no processo de extra??o, s?o elas: temperatura, volume de solvente, volume de ?cido e tempo de extra??o. Inicialmente, determinou-se uma s?rie de par?metros para caracterizar a borra oleosa. Posteriormente, projetou-se um extrator para operar com a borra de petr?leo. Foram aplicados dois planejamentos experimentais: fatorial fracionado e Doehlert. Os ensaios foram realizados em processo batelada, de acordo com as condi??es dos planejamentos experimentais aplicados. Atrav?s dos par?metros de caracteriza??o constatou-se que o res?duo oleoso ? constitu?do predominantemente de material org?nico (36,2% de ?leo), 16,8% de cinzas, 40% de ?gua e 7% de compostos vol?teis. A efici?ncia m?dia do processo de extra??o foi de 70%. Entretanto, a an?lise estat?stica mostrou que o modelo quadr?tico n?o se ajustou bem ao processo, indicando um baixo coeficiente de determina??o (60,6%). Isto ocorreu devido ? complexidade do material estudado. Para obter um modelo que melhor se ajustasse aos resultados obtidos experimentalmente, utilizou-se a ferramenta da modelagem matem?tica, redes neurais artificiais (RNA), a qual foi gerada, inicialmente, com 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 e 8 neur?nios na camada oculta, 64 dados experimentais e 10000 apresenta??es (intera??es), verificando-se menores dispers?es entre os valores experimentais e calculados para o n?mero de 4 neur?nios. Com base na an?lise dos desvios m?dios do teste e treinamento evidenciou-se que o n?mero de 2150 apresenta??es foi o melhor valor considerando a propor??o de pontos experimentais e par?metros estimados. Para o novo modelo, o coeficiente de determina??o foi de 87,5%, mostrando-se bastante satisfat?rio

This work presents results of the extraction process of the essential oil of Cymbopogon winterianus J. with CO2 under high pressures. The effect of the following variables was evaluated: solvent flow rate (from 0.37 to 1.5 g CO2/min), pressure (66.7 and 75 bar) and temperature (8, 10, 15, 20 and 25 ?C) on the extraction kinetics and the total yield of the process, as well as in the solubility and composition of the C. winterianus essential oil. The experimental apparatus consisted of an extractor of fixed bed and the dynamic method was adopted for the calculation of the oil solubility. Extractions were also accomplished by conventional techniques (steam and organic solvent extraction). The determination and identification of extract composition were done by gas chromatography coupled with a mass spectrometer (GC-MS). The extract composition varied in function of the studied operational conditions and also related to the used extraction method. The main components obtained in the CO2 extraction were elemol, geraniol, citronellol and citronellal. For the steam extraction were the citronellal, citronellol and geraniol and for the organic solvent extraction were the azulene and the hexadecane.

The most common vegetable oil extractant using around the world is the hexane, a petroleum derived, toxic and flammable. Based on this fact, the goal of this work was to test vegetable oil extractions from sunflower seeds cultivated on the Rio Grande do Norte State using two extraction process, the mechanical expelling and solvent extraction, this one using hexane and ethanol as a alternative solvent. The solvent extractions were carried out in the Soxhlet extractor in three different extraction times (4, 6, and 8 hours). The effect of solvent and extraction time was evaluated. The mechanical extraction was carried out in a expeller and the sunflower oil obtained was characterized by its physical-chemical properties and compared with sunflower refinery oil. Furthermore this work also explored the pyrolysis reaction carried out by thermogravimetry measurement as alternative route to obtain biofuel. For this purpose the oil samples were heated to ambient temperature until 900?C in heating rate of 5, 10, 20?C min-1 with the objective evaluated the kinetics parameters such activation energy and isoconversion. The TG/DTG curves show the thermal profile decomposition of triglycerides. The curves also showed that antioxidant presents on the refinery oil not influence on the thermal stability of sunflower oil. The total yield of the extraction s process with hexane and ethanol solvent were compared, and the results indicated that the extraction with ethanol were more efficient. The pyrolysis reaction results indicated that the use of unpurified oil required less energy to obtain the bio-oil / Atualmente, o aumento da preocupa??o com o meio ambiente, incentiva as pesquisas que buscam a aplica??o de materiais alternativos provenientes de fontes renov?veis em processos industriais. O extratante de ?leo vegetal mais utilizado no mundo ? o hexano, um derivado de petr?leo t?xico e inflam?vel. Considerando este fato, o presente trabalho teve por objetivo realizar extra??es do ?leo das sementes de girassol cultivadas no Estado do Rio Grande do Norte usando dois processos de extra??o, a extra??o mec?nica e a extra??o com solventes, utilizando hexano e etanol como solvente alternativo.

The techniques used today are basically physical processes in which the milled material is incorporated into new asphalt mixtures or executed on site, with the addition of virgin asphalt and rejuvenating agent. In this paper seeks to analyze the efficiency of extraction of CAP (Petroleum Asphalt Cement) mixtures from asphalt milling, using commercial solvents and microemulsions. The solvents were evaluated for their ability to solubilize asphalt using an extractor reflux-type apparatus. Pseudoternary diagrams were developed for the preparation of microemulsion O/W surfactant using a low-cost coconut oil saponified (OCS). Microemulsions were used to extract the CAP of asphalt through physicochemical process cold. Analysis was performed concentration of CAP in solution by spectroscopy. The data provided in the analysis of concentration by the absorbance of the solution as the basis for calculating the percentage of extraction and the mass flow of the CAP in the solution. The results showed that microemulsions prepared with low concentration of kerosene and butanol/OCS binary has high extraction power of CAP and its efficiency was higher than pure kerosene, reaching 95% rate of extraction / Com o aumento dos servi?os de fresagem asf?ltica houve tamb?m um incremento significativo nos servi?os de reciclagem de pavimentos asf?lticos.

Due to the complexity of the transformation process, greater quantities of chemicals are being used which results in the generation of effluents with residual solids. The chromium in the residual waters generated by tanning tend to be a serious problem to the environment, therefore the recovery of this metal could result in the reduction of manufacturing costs. This metal is usually found in a trivalent form which can be converted into a hexavalent compound under acidic conditions and in the presence of organic matter. The present study was carried out with the objective to recover chromium through an extraction/re-extraction process using micro emulsions. Micro emulsions are transparent and thermodynamically stable system composed of two immiscible liquids, one forming the continuous phase and the other dispersed into micro bubbles, established by an interfacial membrane formed by surface active and co-surface active molecules. The process of recovering the chromium was carried out in two stages. The first, an extraction process, where the chromium was extracted in the micro emulsion phase and the aqueous phase in excess was separated. In the second stage, a concentrated acid was added to the micro emulsion phase rich in chromium in order to obtain a Winsor II system, where the water that formed in the micro emulsion phase separates into a new micro emulsion phase with a higher concentration of chromium, due to the lowering of the hydrophiles as well as the ionisation of the system. During the experimental procedure, a study was initiated with a synthetic solution of chromium sulphate passing onto the effluent. A Morris extractor was used in the extraction process. Tests were carried out according to the plan and the results were analysed by statistical methods in order to optimise the main parameters that influence the process: the total rate of flow (Q), stirring speed (w) and solvent rate (r). The results, after optimization, demonstrated that the best percentuals in relation to the chromium extraction (99 %) were obtained in the following operational conditions: Q= 2,0 l/h, w= 425 rpm and r= 0,375. The re-extraction was carried out at room temperature (28 ?C), 40 ?C and 50?C using hydrochloric acid (8 and 10 M) and sulphuric acid (8 M) as re-extracting agents. The results obtained demonstrate that the process was efficient enough in relation to the chromium extraction, reaching to re-extraction percentage higher than 95 %. / Os Curtumes s?o ind?strias que transformam peles em couro. Devido a complexidade do processo de transforma??o s?o utilizadas grandes quantidades de agentes qu?micos e gerados grandes volumes de efluentes e res?duos s?lidos. O cromo presente nas ?guas residu?rias geradas pelos curtumes constitui um s?rio problema ambiental e sua recupera??o poder? representar uma redu??o nos custos do processo. Normalmente encontra-se na forma trivalente podendo ser convertido a cromo hexavalente sob condi??es ?cidas e na presen?a de mat?ria org?nica. Este estudo foi realizado com o objetivo de recuperar o cromo atrav?s de um processo de extra??o/reextra??o utilizando microemuls?es. As microemuls?es s?o sistemas transparentes, termodinamicamente est?veis, constitu?dos por dois l?quidos imisc?veis, um formando a fase cont?nua e o outro disperso na forma de microgot?culas, estabilizadas por uma membrana interfacial formada por mol?culas de tensoativo e cotensoativo. O processo de recupera??o do cromo ocorre em duas etapas. Na primeira, a extra??o, o cromo ? extra?do para a fase microemuls?o e a fase aquosa em excesso ? separada. A segunda etapa, ? realizada adicionando-se a fase microemuls?o, rica em cromo, um ?cido concentrado visando a obten??o de um sistema Winsor II, em que parte da ?gua que formava a fase microemuls?o, devido a diminui??o da hidrofilia e ioniza??o do sistema, se desloca formando uma nova fase aquosa, mais concentrada em cromo. Durante o procedimento experimental, iniciou-se o estudo com uma solu??o sint?tica de sulfato de cromo passando-se, em seguida, ao efluente. No processo de extra??o do cromo em escala semi-piloto utilizou-se o extrator Morris. Os ensaios foram efetuados seguindo um planejamento experimental e os resultados obtidos foram analisados, atrav?s de m?todos estat?sticos, visando a otimiza??o dos principais par?metros que influenciam no processo: vaz?o total (Q), velocidade de agita??o (w) e taxa de solvente (r). Os resultados obtidos, ap?s a otimiza??o, demonstraram que os maiores percentuais de extra??o (99 %) s?o obtidos nas seguintes condi??es operacionais: Q=2,0 l/h, w= 425 rpm e r= 0,375. A reextra??o foi realizada a temperatura ambiente (28 ?C) e a 40?C e 50?C utilizando-se como agente reextratante ?cido clor?drico (8 e 10 M) e ?cido sulf?rico (8 M). Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que o processo foi eficiente com rela??o ao cromo, obtendo-se percentuais de reextra??o acima de 95%
