13. Methodology for minimum nitrogen compounds removal efficiencies estimation and wastewater treatment systems pre-selection: a watershed approach
RESUMO O nitrogênio constitui importante parâmetro para o controle da poluição hídrica, uma vez que a nitrificação produz consumo de oxigênio do ambiente aquático, além da toxicidade associada à algumas formas de nitrogênio. Este estudo estabeleceu e empregou modelo de otimização visando a determinação simultânea de eficiências mínimas de

14. Tunnel vision in current chemicals management cannot deal with the unknown risk of synthetic chemicals in aquatic systems
Resumo A gestão e o manejo de poluentes químicos são focados na periculosidade, exposição e avaliação de risco. Esse processo é lento e não acompanha o surgimento de novas substâncias e o desenvolvimento do seu uso. O monitoramento ambiental foca em poucas substâncias que são bem conhecidas. Consequentemente, a maioria das substâncias emitidas

16. Characterization of new selective coatings, made of granite and chrome, for solar collectors
ABSTRACT The depletion of fossil fuel reserves and climate change caused by atmospheric pollution has led the human being to seek alternatives that are less damaging to the environment. The concern and the awareness of the population open space for the study of renewable energies to be deepened, among them the best use of solar energy. The use of alternative

17. Dynamic structural response characteristics of new concept blast walls under hydrocarbon explosions
Abstract Offshore installations activities entail the hazard of explosion accidents with potentially severe consequences to safety of workers, integrity of system, pollution of the environment, and economic losses. Blast walls are generally used for the purpose of reducing the explosion consequences. This study introduce a new concept of blast wall (perforat

18. Effect of traffic noise on Scinax nasicus advertisement call (Amphibia, Anura)
ABSTRACT Increased anthropogenic-made sounds such as traffic noises contribute to acoustic pollution, which produces deleterious effect on song-vertebrates. We compared the advertisement call of Scinax nasicus (Cope, 1862) males in natural (as a reference or control, Site A) and Sites affected by traffic noises (Site B). Call structure was recorded and it wa

19. Evaluation of various soaking agents as a novel tool for heavy metal residues mitigation from spinach
Abstract Heavy metals pollution is a global threat to the environment and ecosystem due to various human and natural activities. Heavy metal intake through vegetables and diet leads to numerous ailments such as nervous disorder, kidney damage tubular growth and bone disease. The present study was conducted to mitigate the residue of heavy metals Hg, Pb, Zn

20. Uso de procesos pirometalúrgicas para la obtención de renio
ABSTRACT Rhenium is a metal that has different obtainment methods. The most used comes from molybdenite roasting. Traditional pyrometallurgical methods like oxidizing roasting are applied, but there are also innovative pyrometallurgical methods as is roasting with carbothermic reduction. This paper presents the behavior of rhenium onto two different roasting

21. Characteristics and Mechanisms of Biosolubilization of Rock Phosphate by Aspergillus japonicus
ABSTRACT Rock phosphate (RP) is traditionally solubilized by chemical process causing high cost and environmental pollution. To reduce process cost and protect environment, RP solubilization by Aspergillus japonicus was studied and its mechanisms were discussed. Results show that A. japonicus could effectively solubilize RP in NBRIP medium. RP solubilization

22. Contamination and Soil Biological Properties in the Serra Pelada Mine - Amazonia, Brazil
ABSTRACT Discovered in 1980 and unleashed an utter gold rush of the modern era, Serra Pelada was the largest open-air mine in Brazil. About 80,000 gold prospectors worked there until 1984, when the gold pits were flooded. The environmental impact caused by mining inflicted irreversible damage to the ecosystem, with the formation of a large lake and piles of
