1. CHARACTERIZATION OF GEOSPATIAL, MORPHOMETRIC, AND ENVIRONMENTAL DYNAMICS OF THE MARIANA MICROBASIN IN ALTA FLORESTA-MT, BRAZIL
ABSTRACT River basin environmental diagnosis and monitoring are fundamental for water resource use and conservation plans, as these systems integrate different landscape elements and may undergo impacts and changes of different levels and scales. In this context, this work aimed to characterize the geospatial, morphometric, and environmental dynamics in the

2. Heritability of resistance to potato late blight in an F1 population of elite potato cultivars
ABSTRACT Phytophthora infestans is the most important disease in potato crops. Its control is based on the use of chemical products that have developed pathogen resistance and high economic and environmental impacts. To reduce these effects, the use of plant varieties or cultivars resistant to this pathogen has been proposed. The aim of this study was to eva

3. Diesel-Like Biofuels Production Using Fatty Waste
According to the waste-to-energy (WTE) valorization and circular economy principles, the use of waste oil and grease (WOG) for obtaining biofuels shows the tendency towards sustainability, makes the interest in green chemistry, and the development of environmentally friendly processes grow. Three different fatty wastes (from the fat trap of a sewage station,

4. Capoeira: hypothesis on health rehabilitation and quality-of-life maintenance
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this work was to present hypotheses supporting capoeira as an activity aimed at health rehabilitation and maintenance of quality of life. METHODS: Capoeira players (n=245), residing in Brazil and abroad, were evaluated for quality of life (physical, social, psychological, and environmental domains from WHOQOL-bref). The capoei

5. Optical sorting technology for waste management from the Boukhadra iron ore mine (NE Algeria)
Abstract Mining processes in the iron ore mine of Boukhadra, Tebessa (NE Algeria) generated thousands of tons of mining wastes every year, which represents a real threat to the environment, leading to hazardous effects for the resident population of the region. The aim of this study is the selective sorting of the Boukhadra mining wastes for valorization. Th

6. ENHANCED REMOVAL OF PERSISTENT CONTAMINANTS AND TOXICITY REDUCTION THROUGH THE APPLICATION OF A TRIPLE-STAGE FENTON PROCESS TO SANITARY LANDFILL LEACHATES FROM YUCATAN, MEXICO
Sanitary landfill leachate (SLL) is a mixture of highly toxic and recalcitrant pollutants that threatens the water quality of the Yucatán Peninsula karst aquifer, one of the most extensive aquifers on the planet. To reduce the adverse environmental impacts of this wastewater, a triple-stage Fenton process (FP) was applied in an old SLL. Removal efficiencies

7. Biochar and swine wastewater: Effects on soil fertility of different textures and corn nutrition
ABSTRACT The use of organic waste in agriculture has stimulated the search for technologies that reduce environmental pollution. Among the residues are the biochar and swine wastewater (SW), which incorrectly disposed cause negative impacts, however, when combined, they can enhance agricultural production, due to the synergism between both. In this sense, th

8. Reaching Circular Economy through Circular Chemistry: The Basis for Sustainable Development
Circular chemistry (CC) is an approach for establishing chemical processes to become truly circular and sustainable. It adopts the principles of circular economy (CE), employing life cycle approaches and systems thinking, which help to understand and address the sustainability issues of chemical processes and products. Within this whole context, it is possib

9. Magnetic concentration route for recovering pellet feed fines stored in a mining dam
Abstract The greatest and noblest challenge of mining engineering for the present and the future of iron ore treatment could be considered as the pursuit of optimizing the use of mineral resources. The use of mining tailings, in the mineral sector itself, or in another industrial branch, meets the needs of circular economy as it increases the useful service

10. Effects of the addition of graphene on the compressive strength of geopolymeric mortar developed from k-feldspar mining waste
Abstract Contemporary organizations are showing a growing interest in the reuse of solid waste from industrial processes with the intention of reducing environmental impacts and reducing costs. The mining activity is one of the main waste generators in Brazil. In parallel, geopolymeric materials have been gaining prominence in studies that make it a possible

11. Production of milk analogues from rice bran protein hydrolysate using the subcritical water technique
Abstract Subcritical water treatment is a useful technique for the extraction of active compounds from biomass materials due to its short processing time, low cost, and environmental sustainability. Defatted rice bran is a by-product of rice bran oil, which still contains protein. In this study, rice bran protein was extracted using subcritical water treatme

12. Impact of environmental changes on Dermatology,
Abstract Urbanization, pollution and the modification of natural landscapes are characteristics of modern society, where the change in human relations with the environment and the impact on biodiversity are environmental determinants that affect the health-disease relationship. The skin is an organ that has a strong interface with the environment and, theref
