AVALIAÇÃO QUÍMICA DE LENHOS CARBONIZADOS DE Araucaria columnaris SOB DIFERENTES CONCENTRAÇÕES DE OXIGÊNIO COMO COMPARATIVO DE ANÁLISE DE charcoal FÓSSIL

In the face of environmental changes concerns, the study of climate change becomes essential to understand the life trajectory of planet earth. For this purpose, this work seeks to understand climate change and fluctuations in the amount of atmospheric oxygen across geological ages, carbonizing the Araucaria columnaris wood in varying oxygen concentrations, and comparing them to the fossil coal from Quiteria Outcrop. In this study, pyrolysis of Araucaria columnaris wood occurred with the use of TGA, under an atmosphere of 21% and 30% O2, analyzed in FTIR, distinguishing the constituent compoun...
