(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012-03) CUNHA, Marcos Augusto Eger da; FRANÇA, Luiz Ferreira de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6545345391702172; MACHADO, Nélio Teixeira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5698208558551065
In this work we investigated the enrichment of antioxidants buriti oil (Mauritiaflexuosa Mart) adsorption process by supercritical. The adsorption was carried out experimentally by the method of frontal analysis in columns packed with y-alumina and 15, 20 e 25 MPa, 333 K, and flow of solvent QCO2 = 10,6 L/min, using an assembly of double columns of 81 cm3, tested and approved for use as a cell adsorption. The oil was buriti physic-chemically characterized according to the AOCS official methods and found to comply with the data reported in the literature. The composition of methyl esters was determined by gas chromatography (CG) and antioxidant activity by the method of capture of free radicals (DPPH). The adsorbent was characterized by fluorescence and x-ray diffraction, determining the particle size distribution, porosity and surface area by BET in each experiment, a material balance was performed in the adsorption column to calculate the mass of the adsorbed species in y-alumina in the process of supercritical adsorption. The influence of pressure on supercritical adsorption was investigated by examining the behavior of the isotherms. The Langmuir isotherm was used to model the experimental data of adsorption. The experimental results show an increased capacity adsorbent with higher pressures, showing a maximum of 90,9 ± 8,6 mg oil/g y-alumina, at 25 MPa. The adsorption supercritical buriti oil on γ-alumina using carbon dioxide as solvent appears to be an alternative method for extracting antioxidants from the includ carotenes.

This work aims to investigate the influence of temperature on the textural, morphological and crystalline characterization of bioabsorbents produced by hydrothermal processing of corn husk residues with hot compressed H2O. The experiments were carried out at 175, 200, 225 and 250 ºC, 240 minutes, heating rate of 2.0 ºC/min and biomass/H2O ratio of 1:10, using a pilot scale reactor of 18,927 L. The process is analyzed in terms of yields of reaction products as a function of temperature. The results showed yields of solids ranging from 62.92 to 35.82% (weight), gas yields ranging from 1.49 to 9.59% (weight) and liquid products ranging from 35.43 to 54.59% ( Weight). The yield of the solid phase decreases with temperature, presenting an inflection region between 200 and 225 °C, in which a drastic change occurs, while that of the liquid phase increases, presenting the same inflection region between 200 and 225 °C. The gas phase yield increases exponentially with temperature up to approximately 10% (weight) in the investigated temperature range. Elemental analysis of solid products shows that the carbon content increases, while the oxygen and hydrogen content decreases with temperature. The textural, morphological and crystalline characterization of solid phase products analyzed by TG/TDG, SEM/EDX, XRD and BET. The solid phase product (bio-adsorbent) obtained by hydrothermal processing of corn husk residues at 225 and 250 °C, 240 minutes, and biomass/H2O ratio of 1:10, were chemically activated with 2.0 NaOH solutions. M and 2.0 M HCl to investigate the adsorption of acetic acid solutions (1.0; 2.0; 3.0; and 4.0 mg/mL). The adsorption kinetics investigated at 30, 60, 120, 240, 480 and 960 seconds. The adsorption isotherm showed that chemically activated carbons were able to remove acetic acid from aqueous solutions.

(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/6157348947425968
Around 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.

(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/6157348947425968
This 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.

The formation of solid waste has become a great challenge for the environment preservation due to the lifestyle adopted by modern society, which seeks for practicality and immediacy, and by that, new products are released, and waste formation is increased. The decomposition of waste from various sources creates a dark liquid denominated “slurry”, which presents high concentration of organic and inorganic compounds. This study aimed to evaluate the concentrations of Cd, Cu, Cr, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn on the ground and percolated liquid produced at the solid waste decomposition site in the metropolitan region of Belém/Pará/Brazil. Fly ashes of mineral coal were used to produce a low-cost zeolitic material, for removing copper, zinc, cadmium, and chrome, which are present at the percolated liquid of the Aurá landfill. The zeolites synthesized by alkaline fusion (ZSH and ZSJ), and without alkaline fusion (ZSD, ZSG, ZSK, ZSO), were characterized by different techniques, such as X-ray fluorescenc espectrometry, X-ray diffraction, and Scanning Electron Microscopy. The treatment adsorption efficiency of using adsorbent zeolitic material demonstrated viability to be used as an adsorvent agent for the adsorption of metals present at the leachate produced by landfills.

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 da
Kaolin 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).
