13. FAST DETERMINATION OF THE SULFUR SPECIES IN SOLID PHASE SYSTEMS BY A TPO-IR METHOD
Qualitative and quantitative assessment of total sulfur and sulfur species in solid phase is necessarily important for development of effective desulfurization methods, reduction of environmental pollution, and prevention of catalyst poisoned. In this work, TPO-IR (Temperature Programmed Oxidation- Infrared) method was used for rapid determination of sulfur

14. PREPARAÇÃO E VALIDAÇÃO DE ARQUIVOS DE ENTRADA PARA USO NO SIMULADOR DE QUALIDADE DO AR (CMAQ)
According to the inventories carried out by the air pollution control agencies, vehicle emissions are responsible for more than 70% of air pollutants in metropolitan regions. Proper handling of CMAQ input data is an important step in the formation of a database for the model. Thus, it is necessary to insert the meteorological data using the Weather Research

16. NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON PHOTOSYNTHESIS AND CHLOROPLAST PIGMENTS EXPOSED TO LEAD AND ALUMINUM: A META-ANALYSIS
ABSTRACT Toxic metals have become some of the main abiotic agents that influence the stress of organisms due to their numerous agricultural and industrial uses that result in bioaccumulation and toxicity at different levels, depending on the type and concentration in the environment. Aluminum and lead are present as a result of anthropogenic activities and c

17. Does an urban environment affect leaf structure of Eugenia uniflora L. (Myrtaceae)?
ABSTRACT External factors can interfere with the structure and biological activity of plants. Nevertheless, the susceptibility of plants to specific environmental conditions varies, which raises many questions about the behavior of medicinal plants when grown in urban areas. This study aims to detect possible changes induced by exposure of Eugenia uniflora L

18. Assessment of Atmospheric PM10 Pollution Levels and Chemical Composition in Urban Areas near the 2016 Olympic Game Arenas
Coarse particulate matter (PM10) concentrations and chemical composition were monitored from 2014 to 2017 at three sampling sites in the Metropolitan Region of Rio de Janeiro, namely Botafogo, Gávea, and Gericinó. All sites are located close to the 2016 Olympic Game arenas. The average annual PM10 concentrations were above the limits recommended by the Wor

23. Zn, Co, Cr, As, and genotoxic effects in the ichthyofauna species from polluted and non-polluted/protected estuaries of the São Paulo coast, Brazil
Abstract: The human impact on estuarine regions results in an increasing concentration of trace elements in the environment, exposing aquatic organisms. In this study, Zn, Co, Cr, and As were determined in the muscle tissue of some fish species from Santos-São Vicente (SSV), a recognized polluted region, and in the Cananeia estuary (CAN). Genotoxicity was a
