Cork-based adsorbents have been gathering interest from the research community since 1990s. A first review was published on this topic in 2012. Still, last decade, novel activated carbons and biochars, multiple applications, produced using cork as a raw material. This presents these insights into properties of cork, its various forms, how they relate to adsorption capacity. Details new preparation methodologies respective characteristics cork-based biochars are thoroughly compared, patterns...
High salinity wastewaters have limited treatment options due to the occurrence of salt inhibition in conventional biological treatments. Using recirculating marine aquaculture effluents as a case study, this work explored use Constructed Wetlands option for nutrient and loads reduction. Three different substrates were tested adsorption, which expanded clay performed better. This substrate adsorbed 0.31 mg kg−1 NH4 +−N 5.60 PO4 3−−P 6.9 dissolved salts after 7 days contact. Microcosms with...
A novel optical fiber sensor is presented for measuring dissolved CO<sub>2</sub> water quality monitoring applications, where the signal based either on refractive index changes or color change. The sensing chemistry acid-basic equilibrium of 4-nitrophenol, that converted into anionic form by addition quaternary ammonium hydroxide. sensitive layer was characterized and tested using simple absorbance/reflectance measurement setups connected to a optic CCD spectrometer. prototype simulating...
This article emphasizes the importance of proper performance vertical sealing systems in building fire safety. It verifies role seals as elements to contain spread buildings, based on ABNT NBR 15575 - Part 4 Performance Standard. The research is grounded analyses standard, PBQP-h, and academic literature databases. Summary tables present criteria, evaluation methods, responsibilities, necessary validations ensure adequate performance. concluded that compliance with Standard crucial safety...
This article analyzes the use of plastic materials in civil construction, especially wall sealing systems. Plastics offer easy assembly, quick execution, reduced physical effort, and recyclable durable, thus reducing environmental impacts. The incorporation flame-retardant treatments is necessary to meet fire safety criteria. Materials such as vermiculite, ceramic fiber, fiberglass show heat resistance, contributing situations. Despite challenges, using plastics construction promising,...
Águas com concentrações elevadas de sais dissolvidos utilizadas para irrigação podem gerar problemas salinização e/ou sodificação dos solos. Tais efeitos ser sentidos na área estudo, logo este trabalho busca avaliar a qualidade da água subterrânea e realizar estimativa ocorrência desses parâmetros por interpolação 15 poços tubulares, distribuídos ao longo Bacia Hidrográfica do Rio Piauí no sul sergipano. Foram determinados os Condutividade Elétrica pelo método eletrométrico cátions Ca2+,...
Salinização de solos refere-se à acumulação excessiva sais no solo e é um problema que limita o potencial agrícola Portugal. As suas causas (naturais ou antropogénicas), principais consequências a extensão do serão discutidas neste artigo, assim como as soluções mais inovadoras para reverter mitigar processo se encontram em investigação, utilização plantas (fitodessalinização).
Sanitary landfills are one of the most used disposal methods for municipal solid waste (MSW) disposal. Due to its high strength, these wastewaters need a combination several treatment steps, which combine biological with physical-chemical processes. The main goal this study was assess removal efficiency specific steps in three different full scale facilities Portugal. Results indicate good BOD5 (75; 93; 96%) on all but low TOC (2; 58; 64%) indicating that recalcitrant organic matter remains...
O presente trabalho tem o objetivo de apresentar a importância da educação climática e ambiental como um instrumento formação inovadora transformadora na básica superior. Para isso relataremos experiência “Jornada Inov-Ação Socioambiental Climática” promovida pelo Laboratório Inovação para Mudanças Climáticas Sustentabilidade – LIMCS, Universidade Católica Pernambuco, em parceria com Escola Pública Estadual Liceu Nóbrega Artes Ofícios. Primeiramente apresentaremos relevância Educação...
