Impacto da atividade minero-metalúrgica na qualidade de vida em Barcarena entre 1991 e 2000: uma análise intramunicipal a partir dos indicadores sócio-econômicos
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2007-03-09) RIBEIRO, Lilian Lopes; MONTEIRO, Maurílio de Abreu; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8077335023133373
The main aim of this work was to analyze the impact of the mining and metallurgical activity in the intramunicipal quality of life in Barcarena, departing from social-economic indicators and indices in the following dimensions: income, education, housing and sanitation. It was used as a data basis the Brazilian Demographic Census of 1991 and 2000 of IBGE. The hypothesis made for so was that the hasty economic growth in Barcarena, impelled mainly by the mining and metallurgical activity, has not corroborated significantly for the life quality of the people in the district. The methodology used was the temporal intra and inter municipal comparative analysis. It was used as a basis for the discussion the results obtained in a descriptive review made by several authors concerning the subject. It was concluded that the mining and metallurgical activity promotes an originally endogenous economical and human development. Therefore, the research revealed that during the years of 1991 and 2000 the population of Barcarena went through a slight improvement in the quality of life in the verified aspects. It was also revealed that the conditions of life of the population could have been better if the positive influence of such activity had not been neutralized by the population growth.

Redes de subcontratação e desenvolvimento local: a atuação da Albrás no arranjo produtivo de Barcarena
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2005-08-04) CORÔA FILHO, Vicente Uparajara; BASTOS, Ana Paula Vidal; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1992388595130579; MONTEIRO, Maurílio de Abreu; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8077335023133373
The economic occupation project of the Amazon, which would result in its integration to the national system, beneficiate with great amounts of investment, several of the so-called “big projects” to explore region’s natural resources. At the same time, planners had the perspective that they would act as irradiators of local socio-economic development. Albras, benefiting from this policy, is planned to generate external resources and to contribute to the regional economy dynamic. Surrounding the firm, in Barcarena city, several firms are installed building a productive arrangement that needs to be investigated. The subcontracting network is based on the flexibilization of the production process imposed by the main firm. This research aims to identify the cooperation, innovation and interaction processes among subcontracted firms, as well its eventual relation with local development.

Trabalhadores da Albras e sua organização política
(2004-06) GOMES, Vera Lúcia Batista; CASTRO, Edna Maria Ramos de
As of the late 20th century and beginning of the 21st century, workers organizations have deeply changed. Workers struggle to defend their interests and those of the society in general have become more and more difficult. This study analyzes the particularities of the present status of Albras workers political organization, based on the changes undergone by the company, and how those changes affected the Metal Industry Workers Union of the State of Pará (SIMETAL). It tries to understand the challenges to the workers collective actions towards a new structure within the industrial capitalism.

Trabalho e capital na Amazônia Oriental: movimento operário versus reestruturação produtiva no Complexo Albrás-Alunorte: 1990 – 2005
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2007-03) SANTIAGO, João Carlos da Silva; PALHANO, Eleanor Gomes da Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2097579030181428
The present dissertation studies the productive restructuration in the factories of ALBRAS and ALUNORTE, situated in the municipal district of Barcarena/PA, and how the working class movement has put itself against this process, from 1990 to 2005. Through a study of the chronic crisis of the worldwide capitalist economy, worsened by the two petroleum crash, it attempts to explain how the installation of two modern factories in the Oriental Amazon, with a working class contingent highly concentrated. It is emphasized how important is the role of the State to the achievement of this process. We also analyze how, since the “globalization” phenomenon – which is a higher stage of the imperialism -, and the new work organization process – mainly the toyotist model -, the working class movement and its organizations were put to the proof because of the flexibilization of the work, the precarization and the subcontraction, which have made difficult the strikes and the class movements in Brazil and in the world, in the 1990s. Based in bibliographic material, brochures and interviews with workers and directors of labor unions, the study evidences that the struggles against the productive restructuration in ALBRAS was more intense, including the strike mode, than in ALUNORTE, because ALBRAS was ten years ahead of ALUNORTE and it was the first laboratory of CVRD in the city of Barcarena. Contradictorily, it was in ALBRAS where occurred the highest number of dismissals in the studied period, before and after the privatization of CVRD. The dissertation aims to show the role of the Chemists and Metallurgists Labor Union in this process of struggles against the productive restructuration in the factories of ALBRAS and ALUNORTE.

Trabalho, alienação e adoecimento na produção de alumínio em Barcarena
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2007) GUINALZ, João Paulo; COSTA, Paulo Sérgio Weyl Albuquerque; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4135075517359609; MONTEIRO, Maurílio de Abreu; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8077335023133373
This dissertation reports cases illness and dismissal of workers in the mineral transformation industry of the ALBRAS, a branch enterprise of CVRDC. This essay has the purpose to make explicit the relations between work and its ambient problems, under the workers point of view, in the context of illness and dismissal. Form camp researches, at Barcarena and Abaetetuba, site of the plant and the most part of its ex-employees, it was verified that many workers complained about their physical and psychological situations, consequent to their dismissal for illness, which they attribute to the conditions of their tasks in the industry, with a resultant significative loss of working capacity. This essays principal objective is to explain a summary of the reasons that led this group of workers to accept work conditions that, in their own vision, resulted in diseases consequent to the exercise of their tasks. This problem is analyzed through an interdisciplinary of Sociologic, Philosophic, Economic and Juridical concepts, besides fundaments of the complex features of capital and work relations and their respective alienations in the capitalism social system. This dissertation points up, also, to distortions between the investigated cases and the constitution dispositions: what is the understanding of constitutional norms about economic and social aspects and how, in reality, the their relations with the society and the State.

Transporte pneumático fluidizado: estudos de casos aplicados à indústria do alumínio primário
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011-08) VASCONCELOS, Paulo Douglas Santos; MESQUITA, André Luiz Amarante; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1331279630816662
This work is a contribution to science and applied technology developed to fluidized bed and fluidized motion conveying used in the powder handling of the industrial processes. In the case of fluidized bed it is proposed an empirical equation to predict the minimum fluidization velocity for the fluoride alumina, crust powder and others powders used in the industrial processes with good results compared with the experiments and the equations available in the literature. It was also studied the constitutive equations to predict the behavior of the angle of repose and interparticles friction as a function of the superficial velocity of fluidization. In a second step it is proposed an equation to predict the capacity of the Air Pneumatic Fluidized Conveyor with good results compared with the experiments for fluoride alumina. The Air Fluidized Conveyor is a contribution to applied technology reducing the consumption of energy, it operates even in upward direction, and so, decreasing the rate kWh/ton in the powder handling of the industrial processes.
