13. Prediction of diametric and dynamic structures in a semiarid forest (Caatinga) area submitted to Forest Management, Brazil
ABSTRACT Dynamics studies associated with prognosis can support planning actions for the conservation and sustainable use of forest resources. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the dynamics and predict the diameter structure using the Markov chain model for an area of caatinga forest submitted to different management practices. The study

14. The influence of separately and combined bentonite and kaolinite as binders for pelletization of NaA zeolite from coal fly ash
Abstract Pelletization of zeolitic materials is required to facilitate their practical industrial and commercial applications. Zeolite-NaA was synthesized from fly ash by the fusion method and shaped into spherical granules. Bentonite, kaolinite, and a combination of bentonite with kaolinite were tested as binders with different contents from 5 to 10 wt%. Th

15. Pretreatment and Enzymatic Saccharification of Water Hyacinth, Sugarcane Bagasse, Maize Straw, and Green Coconut Shell Using an Organosolv Method with Glycerol and FeCl3
A method to pretreatment of biomasses using glycerol as a green solvent was developed. Optimization of organosolv pretreatment was performed using a 23 factorial design, investigating synergism among the variables particle size (from < 0.85 to > 2.0 mm), FeCl3 concentration (0.025-0.175 mol L-1), and temperature (160-220 °C). Although the effects of the var

16. Advances in the knowledge of the natural history of aquatic plants in the Neotropics
ABSTRACT Until the mid-XX century, little awareness on the ecological services or socio-environmental problems and benefits related to aquatic plants culminated in bottlenecks on their natural history, especially for the Neotropics. In this context, Acta Botanica Brasilica (ABB) organized this special issue to promote the advancement of knowledge on this eco

17. Biomass production of the aquatic macrophyte Ceratopteris pteridoides (Hook.) Hieron (Pteridaceae) in nutrient addition treatments
ABSTRACT Aquatic macrophytes are a key group in flooded areas due to their high primary productivity, and several species present in the Amazonian floodplains have potential for human food use. This study evaluated biomass production and nutrient levels in fronds of Ceratopteris pteridoides (Pteridaceae), under the following nutritional treatments: (T1) arte

18. Utilization of ferronickel slag in hot mix asphalt
Abstract The growing concern in minimizing the disorderly disposal of waste in nature has been influencing measures that seek to give new environmentally sustainable and economically viable purposes for these materials. The use of steel slag aggregate in road paving emerges as an alternative for reducing the storage of this material in industrial yards, as w

19. EVALUATION OF DIVERSITY AND GENETIC STRUCTURE AS STRATEGIES FOR CONSERVATION OF NATURAL POPULATIONS OF Dalbergia nigra (Vell.) Allemão ex Benth.
ABSTRACT: The evaluation of diversity and genetic structure allows us to verify with precision the effect of evolutionary and anthropic processes on species. The objective of this research was to evaluate the divergence and the genetic structure of two natural populations of Dalbergia nigra, using molecular markers Inter Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSR).

20. Effects of different legume green manures on tropical soil microbiology after corn harvest
ABSTRACT Legume green manure is a popular practice for sustainable agriculture in tropical environments. The use of grain, forage and purely green manure legumes in a subhumid tropical area in Northeast Brazil was investigated to determine the total C and N contents and estimate C-microbial biomass, soil basal respiration, microbial and metabolic quotients,

23. Sustainable production of furfural and 5-hidroximetilfurfural from rice husks and soybean peel by using ionic liquid
Abstract In the current search for renewable energy sources, residual biomass has been highlighted as a potential source of chemical compounds that are currently obtained from petroleum. Among the derivatives obtained from this, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and furfural are considered key parts in this process as they are key compounds in the fine chemical indust

24. APLICAÇÃO DE NANOPARTÍCULAS DE FERRO ZERO-VALENTE (nFeZ) NA REMEDIAÇÃO DE SOLOS E ÁGUAS SUBTERRÂNEAS CONTAMINADAS: UMA REVISÃO
The remediation of contaminated soil and water is a relevant topic, being the focus of intense research. The use of nanoparticles to degrade contaminants has been consolidated as a sustainable remediation technology, with promising results worldwide. In this scenario, the zero-valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) which, due to their properties, prove to be an im
