Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Análise da convecção natural no escoamento laminar em cavidades parcialmente preenchidas com meios porosos utilizando transformadas integrais(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2016-04-15) QUARESMA, Sil Franciley dos Santos; MACÊDO, Emanuel Negrão; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8718370108324505; QUARESMA, João Nazareno Nonato; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7826389991864785A numerical study is performed to analyze the natural convection in a vertical rectangular enclosure that is partially filled with a porous medium, by the Generalized Integral Transform Technique (GITT). The first studies concerning flow transient in a channel partially filled with porous medium without the effect of natural convection in order to understand the technical solution or problems with interfaces. Two different formulations were studied: the two-domain approach and the single-domain approach. Subsequently a numerical study is performed to analyze the steady-state thermal natural convection fluid flow and heat transfer in a vertical rectangular enclosure that is partially filled with a porous medium. The flow is modeled using the Brinkman- Forchheimer extended Darcy and energy conservation equation was used to predict the heat transfer. The mathematical description of the problem is based on a one-domain formulation of the conservation equations. Finally it carried out the study of double diffusive natural convection, also nominated thermosolutal natural convection in partially porous enclosures. The validity of the so-called one-domain approach used in this case compared to existing results in the literature. A particular class of problems dealing with thermal and double diffusive natural convection mechanisms in partially porous enclosures is presented, and it is shown that this configuration exhibits specific features in terms of the heat and mass transfer characteristics.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Análise experimental e numérica da fluidização para aplicações industriais(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012-03) LOURENÇO, Reimar de Oliveira; MESQUITA, André Luiz Amarante; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1331279630816662; MACÊDO, Emanuel Negrão; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8718370108324505The gas-particle fluidized beds have great importance in the processing industry, due to have a good effect of mixing between the phases, and high rates of heat and mass transfer, requiring it to lower power consumption. Some typical examples of industrial applications of this equipment can be found in processes involving catalytic reactions, catalyst regeneration, or the combustion and coal of gasification. The understanding of the fluid dynamic behavior of this equipment is of fundamental importance for the fluidized bed can be adapted to new conditions. The literature reports several studies of fluidized bed, reporting varied contributions already incorporated the knowledge of the operation. The CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) tool has proved a good alternative for understanding the operation of this equipment. The use of multiphase granular Eulerian model together with the conservation equations of mass, energy and momentum for each of the phases present, has shown success when applied to fluidized beds. Overall, this work is to study the behavior of the fluid dynamic flow of glass beads and alumina in conventional fluidized bed type gas-solid, varying models Gidaspow, Syamlal-O’Brien and Wen-Yu, as well as Turbulence Models K-ε and RSM. More specifically, the work seeks to study the behavior of the fluid-dynamic equipment, by monitoring the most important fluid-dynamic parameters, among which we highlight the minimum fluidization velocity of the same, the pressure drop at minimum fluidization equipment, its porosity and expansion of the bed particles, also at minimum fluidization. Experimental tests were compared with numerical simulations using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) tool, in which good agreement of the simulated results compared to experimental results.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Análise teórico-experimental da biotransferência de calor em tecidos sintéticos aquecidos por ultrassom(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2016-04-14) AMORIM, Nelson de Souza; COTTA, Renato Machado; QUARESMA, João Nazareno Nonato; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7826389991864785The inverse problem of parameter estimation for the bioheat transfer problem in sintetic tissue was analyzed. Initially an experimental analysis was developed by heating a synthetic tissue using a ultrasound transducer. Different temperature profiles were obtained for 3 cases involving intensity variations: 1W/cm2, 1.5W/cm2 and 2W/cm2 for 3 thermocouples positioned along the sintetic tissue. A mathematical model was develeped to represent the experimental problem. The solution of this model was obtained using the Classical Integral Transform Technique (CITT). The Levenberg-Marquardt Method was used to solve the parameter estimation for the attenuation of sintetic tissue. A comparison between experimental solution and the mathematical model was performed.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Aplicação da transformada integral generalizada em mancais radiais operando com fluidos não-newtonianos tipo lei da potência(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2016-02-29) MAGNO, Rui Nelson Otoni; MACÊDO, Emanuel Negrão; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8718370108324505; QUARESMA, João Nazareno Nonato; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7826389991864785This work present a study of the hydrodynamic lubrication of full journal bearings with non-Newtonian lubricants, obeying the power-law model. The formulation of the problem is obtained from the general equations of motion, after being taken over some simplifying assumptions inherent of the problem were taken. The regular perturbation method is applied on the governing equations for determining velocity profiles, and on generalized Reynolds Equation for Non-Newtonian lubricant. Solutions for borderline cases were obtained analytically. Then the generalized Reynolds equation is resolved through the Generalized Integral Transform Technique (GITT). For the calculation a computer code was developed in FORTRAN 90/95 which used the BVPFD subroutine from IMSL Library (2014). Numerical results for operational performance parameters such as pressure field, load capacity, Sommerfeld number, attitude angle, friction coefficient and axial flow rate were established and showed excellent agreement when compared with results available in the literature, for different eccentricities, aspect ratios "" and power-law index "n". Also it was studied the influence of surface texture, using sinusoidal, positive full and half wave roughness (transversal roughness). The transversal positive full wave is best for increasing the pressure, load carrying capacity and axial flow, again the results are excelente agreement with data available in the literature.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Avaliação da qualidade de sementes Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp após processo de secagem em leito de jorro(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2015-03) CORUMBÁ, Lorena Gomes; COSTA, Cristiane Marial Leal; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0581730621014796; FARIA, Lênio José Guerreiro de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7428609361678173The variety of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.), known as manteiguinha beans, is native from Amazon region, the cultivation is mainly done by small producers dominated by family farms. The physiological quality of manteiguinha bean seeds, in concern to the germination and emergence rate index are directly connected to the moisture content of the seeds. Therefore, are required studies to evalute the behavior of seeds such as beans their potential hygroscopic and drying conditions. In intention for contribute to improvements in agricultural productivity cowpea, the main objective of this study was to qualitative evaluate of manteiguinha beans seeds behind drying process in conventional spouted bed. In this context, it was first defined the physical, chemical and physiological characteristics of fresh seed according to obtain their moisture sorption isotherms at temperatures of 40, 55 and 70 °C. The thermodynamic parameters of sorption, as isosteric heat, and entropy change in Gibbs free energy were evaluated from the GAB model and through Clausius-Clapeyron and Gibbs-Helmholtz relations. The compensation theory enthalpy-entropy was properly applied to the isotherms indicating that the moisture sorption phenomenon in manteiguinha bean seeds is controlled by enthalpy. To carry on the drying process were defined operating conditions of the spouted bed trhough fluidodynamics parameters analysis (maximum pressure drop, pressure drop in stable spout, pressure drop in the minimum spouting and the minimum spouting velocity). In carry out of the drying tests were applied to experimental design technique Box-Behnken and through statistical analysis of the experimental data was possible to evaluate the influence of input variables: air temperature (Tar), air velocity (Uar) and time drying (t) on the responses, moisture ratio (XR), germination percentage (G) and emergence speed index (ESI). The optimal point of the drying process, estimated by global desirability function obtained when the bed particles operated at temperature and drying air rate of 57 °C and 0.934 m / s, respectively, for a period of 240 minutes. These conditions are obtained seeds with final humidity 0,12 kg water/ kg dry solid, germination of 82.53% and 14.73 and emergence speed index.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Contribuição à análise do transporte pneumático em fase diluída(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011-10) GOMES, Luiz Moreira; MESQUITA, André Luiz Amarante; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1331279630816662This thesis is a contribution to the dilute-phase pneumatic conveying analysis. The survey of the key parameters of a pneumatic transport of bulk solids which are: the minimum conveying air velocity and pressure drop in horizontal and vertical pipelines. Therefore, an analysis of the main correlations available in the literature is made focused on the prediction of such critical velocities, and so proposes the use the most reliable correlations. In this way, an equation to predict the pickup velocity of the particles at the bottom of a horizontal pipeline was also developed. Then was analyzed the behavior of the pressure drop due to the solids and system properties using two computer programs, one of them does not consider the pressure drop in the acceleration zone in its formulation (algorithm). So, it is possible to understand what is the contribution of the acceleration zone in the total pressure drop of system and which is the range of application of each program. It is also done through mathematical modeling, the sensitivity analysis of the initial porosity of the bulk solids in the pressure drop along the pipeline as a function of parameters such as: solids mass flowrate, pipeline length, particles density and pipeline diameter.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Desenvolvimento de ligas de alumínio nanoestruturadas para a utilização em cabos elétricos(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2023-03-15) PRAZERES, Emerson Rodrigues; SOUZA, José Antônio da Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6157348947425968; BRAGA, Eduardo de Magalhães; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4783553888547500Aluminum nanocomposites demonstrate the ability to improve mechanical properties, thermal and electrical conductivity. For aluminum, the incorporation of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (NTCPM) using conventional melting methods is an old problem, due to disintegration of the walls of carbon nanotubes when subjected to high temperatures. In this study, aluminum nanocomposites were manufactured by the conventional casting method, using stainless steel powder (304LSS), nanostructured silicon and nickel. The carbon nanotubes were treated with hydrogen peroxide, allowing adhesion by polar interaction with the particles of the metallic powders. The nanostructured compounds were added to the aluminum matrix by means of conventional casting. After obtaining the material as a melt, it went through the machining process to a diameter of 18.5 mm and then through the cold working process until a diameter of 3.0 mm was obtained. The alloys were characterized mechanically through tensile and microhardness tests, electrically through electrical resistance tests, using a 2-point kelvin bridge, and structurally through macrostructure and microstructure analyses. The 304LSS powder added alloying elements, refined the grains and the NTC improved electrical conductor performance, with electrical conductivity gains in the range of 10%. Associates associated with carbon-associated components not linked to chains of protein chains are compounds of carbon, associated with proteins, aggregates, associated with carbon, associated with proteins, associated with significant proteins in the LRT. The alloys with Ni and carbon nanotubes contributed to significant gains in electrical conductivity and LRT, with the alloy with 2% nickel and 0.1% NTC showing gains of approximately 8% in electrical and mechanical properties. Nanostructured alloys were also superior in terms of electrical and mechanical properties than commercial alloys.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Desenvolvimento de metodologia para regionalização de curvas de permanência de vazões na Amazônia legal(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2015-03-30) PESSOA, Francisco Carlos Lira; BLANCO, Claudio José Cavalcante; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8319326553139808The absence or failure of hydrometric data with long and reliable series, by factors of physical and / or economic order, is one of the main challenges faced in hydrological studies. In order to work around this problem, in this thesis, the application of regionalization method of flow duration curve was proposed. In this context, the main idea was to divide the region of the Amazon in homogeneous regions defined by the methods of hierarchical cluster analysis of Ward and diffuse Fuzzy C-Means, and for each, formulate regional models of flow duration curves. For both methods of the Euclidean distance cluster analysis was used as a similarity measure, and the explanatory variables the flow (drainage area, mean annual precipitation, length and slope of the river), as input data. We obtained four homogeneous regions through the Ward method and 14 regions by Fuzzy C-Means. Duration curves were constructed for each of the 214 gauged stations distributed in their respective regions, and calibrated according to 6 mathematical models (linear, power, exponential, logarithmic, quadratic and cubic). For each homogeneous region formed by cluster analysis methods, a regional model of flow rates of duration curves using multiple regression analysis was formulated, relating the parameters of the best model calibrated with the physical characteristics (drainage area, length and slope of the river) and climate (average annual precipitation) basins. The obtained regional models were validated by the method Jack-Knife cross validation. The performance indices found – values of NASH ≥ 0,75 in over 62% of cases, standing in the performance range from acceptable to good – showed that the Fuzzy C-Means method was the most suitable for the formation of homogeneous regions of flow. The regional models developed for each of the regions formed, are presented as a good option for modeling of flow duration curve for medium and small basins without flow data in the Amazon region.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Desenvolvimento de processo de zeólita A utilizando o caulim da Amazônia e aplicação na adsorção de Cu+2(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2014-08-22) MORAES, Cristiane Gomes; MACÊDO, Emanuel Negrão; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8718370108324505; SOUZA, José Antônio da Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6157348947425968Around the world millions of tons of inorganic waste are produced every day in mining and mineral processing. These wastes are stored in sedimentation basins or discarded in landfills, and very often are thrown directly into the environment without any treatment process. However, alternative recycling and/or reuse should be investigated and, where possible. This work shows studies in order to reuse the kaolin waste from Amazon, from a kaolin processing company for paper covering. For the synthesis of the zeolite in static and dynamic hydrothermal processes, was used as the silicon source and the aluminum kaolin waste, which passed through the calcination procedure in a muffle at 600°C to obtain metakaolin; and as sodium source chose to 5M sodium hydroxide solution. In the static method was used stainless steel autoclaves, in an oven at 110°C, using 1,75g of metakaolin, varying the time of synthesis and the mass of sodium hydroxide and the dynamic process, we used 100g of metakaolin, mass 34,5g sodium hydroxide; at 95°C under stirring system, varying the time of synthesis, in order to determine the optimal conditions in the synthesis of the zeolite in the process. Matches materials and zeolitic products obtained in the syntheses were characterized by: X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetric (DTA/TG), X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and particle size analysis. There is the possibility of scale-up, since the zeolite obtained, the dynamic process in time of 30 min. Data from adsorption experiments determined by iodometric technique copper alloys and metal and minerals, adjusted by Langmuir and Freundlich suggest that the static and dynamic zeolitic materials have good adsorptive capacity reached 95% efficiency for concentrations in the range of 50 to 100mg/L, thereby demonstrating that these materials are efficient and cost effective alternative when used for the removal of heavy metals, in the case of copper, the treatment of industrial effluents.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Desenvolvimento de unidade piloto de transferência de massa gás/líquido: redução da reatividade do resíduo da indústria de alumina através da reação com gases de combustão(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2013-02) VENANCIO, Luis Carlos Alves; SOUZA, José Antônio da Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6157348947425968; MACÊDO, Emanuel Negrão; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8718370108324505The bauxite refining using the Bayer process produces 0.7 to 2.0 tons of the residue known as red mud and about 1.0 ton of CO2 for each ton of alumina produced. The bauxite residue, although not particularly toxic, poses risks to the environment due to its large volume and reactivity. According to the latest technology, part of the moisture is removed and it is stacked on sealed areas specially constructed. More than 95% of the bauxite residue that has been produced (2.6 Bt until 2007) was discarded, especially in ponds on land. This thesis shows the design, construction and operation of a pilot scale gas liquid mass transfer unity with the objective of testing the reduction of the reactivity of the bauxite residue through a reaction with flue gas. As an additional gain, there is a reduction of carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide emissions. This unity, with three reactors, was designed in order to consume minimal power, process the effluent as efficiently as possible and minimize the investment cost. Twenty-five experiments were realized with duration from 80 to 520 minutes each. The gases were analyzed at the entry and exit with electrochemical cells and non-dispersive infrared sensors. The pH was monitored during and after the reaction in order to evaluate the short and long-term results as well as the stability of the reactions. It was demonstrated the viability of reacting the bauxite residue with the flue gas from the refinery without previous processing with the stabilization pH reaching 10.5.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Estudo da extração de cobre utilizando contactores com membranas como alternativa ao processo convencional de extração por solvente(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2013-12-27) OLIVEIRA, Kleber Bittencourt; FERRAZ, Helen Conceição; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1820877582714129; MACÊDO, Emanuel Negrão; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8718370108324505This paper studied the extraction of copper using membrane contactors as an alternative to conventional SX process. The relevant process parameters as type and concentration of extractant solvent, the strip solution, operating time and pH were investigated. Furthermore, a mathematical model was developed from a system of partial differential equations resulting from the mass balance in the membrane contactor system, using as the solution methodology of Integral Technique Coupled (CIEA). The experimental studies conducted in this study showed that use of membrane contactors in liquid-liquid extraction of copper is a promising and viable technology, with the potential to replace the method of solvent extraction by direct contact adopted currently yielding 100% extraction LIX 84I copper using 20% (v/v) as extractant, kerosene as solvent and H2SO4 strip solution in an operation time of 80 minutes. The results obtained by mathematical modeling and simulation of the physical problem analyzed in this study were compared with experimental results and shown to be satisfactory, demonstrating the ability of CIEA in treating problems of mass transfer in membrane systems with contactor.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Estudo da influência de resíduos gerados pela indústria de mineração nas propriedades de compósitos de matriz poliéster reforçados com fibras naturais(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2016-02-26) COSTA, Deibson Silva da; SOUZA, José Antônio da Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6157348947425968In this work, it was produced pure isophthalic unsaturated polyester matrix boards, composites with vegetable fibers (sisal, mauve and jute), composites with industrial waste (red mud, kaolin and ash) and hybrid composites with fibers and waste. The residues were used with a particle size less than 100 mesh and in fiber lengths of 15 mm arranged randomly within the matrix. The fibers were characterized considering their physical, mechanical and morphological properties. The composites were manufactured by a manual process called (hand lay-up) in the form of rectangular plates in metal and pressed mold. The proportions of the mass fractions of waste have varied by 10 % until saturation within the matrix, the mass fraction of fibers was fixed at 5 %. The composites were characterized physically (porosity, water absorption and bulk density), mechanically (tensile, bending and impact), thermally (thermogravimetry - TGA), mineralogically (diffraction of rays-X - DRX), flame retardance and morphologically (scanning electron microscopy - SEM). It was found with the insertion of waste and fibers in the composites, an increase of its physical, mechanical, thermal properties and flame resistance. The physical properties of porosity, water absorption and bulk density has increased significantly (6,7 % to 33 %) with the addition of constituents (residues and fibers). There was an increase (15 % to 95 %) in mechanical strength (tensile, bending and impact) of fiber composites and waste (10 %) composites with fibers. It was evident an improvement in thermal stability (10 % to 50 %) of composites with inclusion of waste. Only the red mud composites have presented a flame retardant ability, obtaining V-2 classification according to UL-94 standard. Morphological analysis of fracture surfaces was efficient in identifying the failure mechanisms and features present in the material. The composites manufactured in this study have resulted in materials with good properties, which makes them feasible candidates for certain types of applications such as panels, liners, partitions and internal doors, an inner lining of automobiles, residential rails and other applications of this nature, respecting the characteristics of these materials.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Estudo da sinterização em reator vertical de leito fixo: desenvolvimento de processo para produção de agregado sintético a partir de cinza volante e biomassa(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2016-05-19) QUARESMA, Danielly da Silva; SOUZA, José Antônio da Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6157348947425968; MACÊDO, Emanuel Negrão; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8718370108324505The synthetic aggregates have been employed in civil construction as a measure for the reduction of mineral extraction. Within this context, the recycling of industrial waste configured today as the basis of the majority of processes to reduce the exploitation of mineral resources. This paper presents the formulation of a process of environmental character and self-sustaining from an energy point of view parameters to develop a process for the production of synthetic aggregate from fly ash and biomass fixed bed reactor. Thus, for the production of aggregate pellets were made from a mixture of clay, fly ash and charcoal in fixed proportions. The reactor is filled with 20% pellets (6.35 mm > pellet ≥ 4 mm) and 80% charcoal (3.36 mm > carbon ≥ 1.70 mm) rated for promoting the efficiency of combustion reactions and subsequent sintering process at different air velocities (Darcy at 20 °C) of 0.0059 m.s-1 (1º Experiment), 0.0098 m.s-1 (2º Experiment) and 0.017 m.s-1 (3º Experiment). By means of X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy was identified the presence of mullite in synthetic aggregate. This material is characterized as lightweight aggregate, in accordance with current standards. With synthetic aggregates manufactured to lightweight concrete, according to the established standard, without structural function in civil construction, but with applications of moderate resistance and may be used in the counterfloor. The process if showed interesting for the sintering of aggregates with good adhesion to the matrix of cement, and can easily be controlled by composition, granulometry, temperature gradient and gaseous flow, reducing environmental impacts, to the extent that the material produced implies in not extraction of natural aggregates.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Produção de material zeolítico a partir de caulim da Amazônia em escala semi piloto: aplicação na adsorção de cobre(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-06-27) RODRIGUES, Emerson Cardoso; MACÊDO, Emanuel Negrão; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8718370108324505; SOUZA, José Antônio da Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6157348947425968This work aims to synthesize a zeolite product composed of zeolite type "A" plus sodalite using as filler kaolin starting material. The synthesis of Zeolites was carried out in a short time and in a system with agitation, in a reactor of stainless steel with a volume of approximately 0.001 m3, that is, in semi-pilot scale. The system was heated by steam from a boiler. The X ray diffraction (XRD), X ray Fluorescence Spectrometry, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Granulometric Analysis and Differential and Gravimetric Thermal Analysis (DTA and TG) were identified and characterized. In the synthesis process the metakaolin was used as the source of silica and alumina, which was obtained at 600 ° C for 2 hours of calcination in a muffle furnace. A 5M sodium hydroxide solution was used as the sodium source. Several syntheses were carried out for a maximum duration of 180 minutes. Every 30 minutes aliquots of the product were taken for the study of reaction kinetics. The results of the zeolite syntheses were satisfactory and the product obtained was applied to the adsorption of Cu2+ ions, in which the influence of the variables: time, temperature, pH and adsorbent quantity were evaluated. The determination of the best adsorption model was performed by the Monte Carlo method via Markov Chain and through the Akaike Information Criterion the isotherms that were closest to the presented results were established. The results obtained were compared with other studies available in the literature and showed significant values, which characterize the process of zeolite production and adsorption as promising and efficient.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Rejeito de caulim e caulim estéril amazônicos como fontes de Si e Al na obtenção de SAPO-34: síntese, otimização, influência de impurezas e aplicação em adsorção de corante(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-05-27) PINHEIRO, Darllan do Rosário; PAZ, Simone Patrícia Aranha daKaolin waste from kaolin industry sedimentation ponds for paper and sterile kaolin or flint belonging to the same mine, in the Capim region, in northeastern Pará, were used in the synthesis of the SAPO-34 molecular sieve. The precursor materials and those produced were characterized by: DRX, FRX, TG-DSC-DTG, FTIR, ASEBET and MEV. First, the use of R-metakaolin as a precursor was evaluated, varying the SiO2 / Al2O3 ratio in the formulation of the SAPO-34 molecular sieve. The adjustment in the value of this molar ratio showed a positive effect on the formation of the desired zeolite, which showed formation of the CHA structure, in less time and with good thermal stability. In relation to the use of F-metakaolin, the effect of the amount of SDA and crystallization time (nucleation and crystal growth) on the formation of the CHA structure was evaluated and, later, that zeolitic product formed with less amount of SDA was used for a detail evaluation, in which the influence of Fe and Ti ions type impurities was studied. The results revealed a positive effect of the greater amount of SDA in the formation of SAPO-34 (CHA), but in a shorter time and, consequently, contribution in the Si distribution in the structure. When comparing the zeolitic products derived from F-metakaolin and a high purity kaolinitic pattern, the zeolitic product obtained from the kaolinitic sterile showed thermal resistance where the calcined product's DRX pattern maintained the CHA diffractometric profile, but with reduced crystallinity. It was also observed that before calcination, the zeolitic product obtained with F-metakaolin showed a smaller displacement to a 2θ (º) angle, indicating an increase in the interplanar distance with reference to the d101 plane, possibly due to interferences of the present impurities (Fe and ions). Ti), however after the calcination for decomposition of the SDA this displacement was not evidenced, thus indicating interference of the SDA used. That product considered the best, based on crystallochemical parameters, was used in the performance evaluation in methylene blue adsorption, which showed good adsorption capacity. In the evaluation of the adsorption kinetics, the pseudo-second order model (R2 = 0.998) was the one that best fit the experimental data. The optimization of the synthesis using tailings through the planning of Box-Behnken experiment and response surface methodology. It was concluded that the use of Amazon waste and/or flint kaolin is viable for the production of SAPO-34 zeolite (CHA).
