1. Use of glass waste in the production of metakaolin-based geopolymer submitted to room temperature and thermal curing
Resumo O metacaulim é a principal matéria-prima utilizada na síntese de geopolímeros, embora a relação entre os teores de sílica e alumina não seja a ideal. Normalmente, o teor de SiO 2 é ajustado com o uso de silicatos presentes na solução ativadora. Uma opção ecoeficiente seria o uso de resíduos de vidro como fonte adicional de sílica. Este

2. Valorization of Hesperidin from Citrus Residues: Evaluation of Microwave-Assisted Synthesis of Hesperidin-Mg Complex and Their Insecticidal Activity
The aim of the current study was the valorization of hesperidin, the dominant flavonoid in citrus processing waste, by microwave-assisted synthesis of hesperidin-Mg complex, improving its antioxidant activity and insecticidal potential. Here we show, for the first time, that microwave-assisted synthesis of [Mg(hesp)2(phen)]OAc (1) (hesp: hesperidin, phen: ph

3. Agro-Industrial Waste Valorization: Transformation of Starch from Mango Kernel into Biocompatible, Thermoresponsive and High Swelling Nanogels
Mango industry processing disposes 40-60% of this fruit as residues, such as peels and kernels. The exploration of bioproducts from these industrial rejects can reduce environmental impact besides of producing high value-added materials. In this scenario, carboxymethyl starch nanoparticles were produced from mango (Mangifera indica L.) kernel starch. These n

4. Monitoring reinforcement corrosion of concretes designed for nuclear facilitie
ABSTRACT The facilities designed for the peaceful activities of nuclear energy are made with different materials, among them, reinforced concrete. This material, in addition to being structural, is a barrier for isolation and confinement from the environment of the radioactive materials. One of its degradation mechanisms is the corrosion of the reinforcement

5. An Environmentally Friendly Procedure to Obtain Flavonoids from Brazilian Citrus Waste
Currently, most food waste is used as animal feed and this process does not take advantage of the available chemical composition. A Brazilian example is the citrus fruit processing wastes (CFPW), which have begun to draw attention due to their biological importance. In order to access the main compounds of this matrix, an efficient and environmentally friend

6. Synthetic Niobium Oxyhydroxide as a Bifunctional Catalyst for Production of Ethers and Allyl Alcohol from Waste Glycerol
A synthetic niobia was modified by treatment with hydrogen peroxide to be used as a catalyst for converting glycerol into petrochemical compounds. The catalytic properties of niobium oxyhydroxide were obtained by generating acidic and oxygenated groups (peroxo groups) on the solid surface. Compounds like ethers and allyl alcohol were obtained. A very active

7. PRODUÇÃO DE BIODIESEL A PARTIR DE ÁCIDOS GRAXOS PROVENIENTES DO REFINO DE ÓLEOS VEGETAIS VIA CATÁLISE ÁCIDA HETEROGENEA E MICRO-ONDAS
This work presents the biofuel production results of the esterification of fatty acids (C12-C18) and high-acid-content waste vegetable oils from different soap stocks (soybean, palm, and coconut) with methanol, ethanol, and butanol by acid catalysis. We used Amberlyst-35 (A35) sulfonic resin as a heterogeneous acid catalyst and p-toluenesulfonic acid as a ho

8. Simple Methods via Mid-IR or 1H NMR Spectroscopy for the Determination of the Iodine Value of Vegetable Oils
Two methods for determining the iodine value in vegetable oils are described. One employs mid-infrared (mid-IR) spectroscopy and the other uses hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR). The determination of the iodine value is based on either the transmittance intensity of mid-IR signals or on the 1H NMR signal integration and multivariate

9. Impact evaluation of the geometry on measurements of solid radioactive waste exposure rates in nuclear medicine
INTRODUCTION: The objective of this paper is to verify the influence of the source geometry on Geiger Müller (GM) exposure rate data. This paper presents a validation of an application based on Monte Carlo (MC) data simulated using Geant4, based on a comparison of the exposure rates calculated via MC and Deterministic Calculations (DC) to experimental (meas

10. Proposta de um questionário destinado a avaliar a percepção de risco relativa a um repositório de rejeitos radioativos / Proposal for a questionnaire to assess risk perception concerning a radioactive waste repository
Um aspecto fundamental da aceitação pública da energia nuclear é a crença de que os rejeitos radioativos podem ser gerenciados de maneira segura, no intuito de proteger os seres humanos dos possíveis efeitos prejudiciais, tanto nas gerações atuais como nas futuras. Neste sentido, é essencial compreender como as pessoas percebem o risco associado com

12. Desenvolvimento e implementação de um novo sistema pneumático de transferência para irradiação de materiais no reator IEA-R1 / Development and implementation of a new pneumatic transfer system for materials irradiation at IEA-R1 reactor
Pneumatic Transfer Systems (PTS) are classified as mechanical equipment largely operated all over the world for transport of a huge sort of objects, samples and materials located at nearly terminals or even at separated ones. System applicability is often recognized in many activities, such as medicine (hospital settings, clinical analysis labs), industry (s
