In this study, a fast synthesis of ZSM-5 zeolites with high-sodium content at three Si/Al ratios (25, 50 and 75) was carried out. Samples were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TG/DTG), nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherm, X-ray diffraction (XDR), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The zeolites were tested on CO2 adsorption in a pressure range from 0 to 600 kPa and at a temperature of 303 K. Single-Site Langmuir (SSL) and Dual-Site Langmuir ( ...

ABSTRACT: The lowland soils are characterized by high susceptibility to water saturation. This anaerobic condition is usually reported in paddy fields and alters the decomposition process of soil organic compounds. The aim of this study was to evaluate the soil microbial and enzymatic activity of a lowland soil at different soil moisture contents. A poorly drained Albaqualf cultivated with irrigated rice was used to evaluate microbial and enzymatic activity in treatments with different levels of ...

This paper aims to discuss the impact of the introduction of pastures and grazing animals in agricultural systems. For the purposes of this manuscript, we focus on within-farm integrated crop-livestock systems (ICLS), typical of Southern Brazil. These ICLS are designed to create and enhance the synergisms and emergent properties have arisen from agricultural areas where livestock activities are integrated with crops. We show that the introduction of the crop component will affect less the preceding ...

Landing data are the most basic information used to manage fisheries, although they are often unavailable or incomplete. The objective of this work was to reconstruct the national database of marine commercial landings for the Brazilian industrial and artisanal fisheries, from 1950 to 2015. Total landings increased strongly from 1950 to mid-1980s and suffered sharp decline in the early 1990s, mainly associated to the collapse of sardine fisheries. After that, another period of increasing landings ...

In this work the fluid dynamics behavior of a draft tube continuous spouted bed with particle bottom feed was studied through experimental data of static pressure, fountain height, and fluid mass flow in the annulus, as well as using the computational fluid dynamics. Experiments using glass beads as solid phase were carried out in two different velocity inlet conditions, 20 and 22 m/s. The inlet solid mass flow rate was 0.087 kg/s for the first case and 0.097 kg/s for the second one. Static pressure ...

Clinical Relevance According to finite element analysis, the zirconia ceramic post created higher stress levels in the post and slightly less in dentin compared with glass fiber posts. Resin cement with a high elastic modulus created higher stress levels in the cement layer. The different film thicknesses of cement did not create significant changes in stress levels.

Using a semicylindrical spouted bed to obtain experimental data of cylindrical vessels is an old technique and it has already been widely studied by experimental procedures. In the mathematical modeling of semicylindrical spouted beds, the specularity coefficient is one of the ways of including the effect of shear stress in the solid phase promoted by the flat wall. This parameter can be included in the boundary condition of a semicylindrical spouted bed to represent this friction effect. The main ...

In the thin layer drying of chitosan, a diffusive model considering the material volume change was used, due to the occurrence of shrinkage during the operation. The samples were placed in a rectangular tray with 4 mm of thickness, and inserted in the discontinuous dryer, with parallel air flow at 60 °C of temperature and air speed of 1.5 m/s. The sample shrinkage occurred in the thickness, and the linear shrinkage coefficient was constant. In the model, variable moisture effective diffusivity and ...

There are few modern analyses of the cyanobacterial communities in biofilms on external building surfaces. As the classification of cyanobacteria is rapidly changing, we aimed to identify them on historic buildings in Brazil using both established and molecular techniques. In mature biofilms, cyanobacteria of subsections I and II were generally the major biomass; occasionally filamentous genera of the Scytonemataceae, Microchaetaceae and Rivularaceae were dominant. Filamentous organisms of subsections ...
