Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

Several works about annual meeting of the Brazilian Chemical Society are present.The search for medicinal chemistry, natural products, biological chemistry, and organic chemistry are shown. Conventional methods and some techniques are discussed and developments of new methods of determining are studied. The use of new chemical compounds, materials, structures and chemical analysis are shown.

Comparative study on tea chemical analysis; Estudo comparativo na analise quimica de chas  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

This paper describes the application of the instrumental analytical methods: neutron activation techniques, atomic absorption spectroscopy and flame emission spectroscopy, used to analyse some home-made teas, determining Na, K and Cl and comparing the results. This study verify whether the home-made teas used for rehydration of the children reach the composition recommended by WHO (World Health Organization). (author). 6 refs., 6 tabs.

Water chemistry in the water-vapor circuit at Angra II: evolution of the operational concepts and canceling of the condensed polishing system; Quimica da agua do circuito agua-vapor de Angra II: evolucao do conceito operacional e o cancelamento do sistema de polimento do condensado  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

The chemical operational concept originally established for the water-steam circuit of Angra II nuclear power plant has undergone several modifications throughout the development of the project. This work discusses the two main modifications giving special attention to the costs involved and analyses the main points and the consequences of such modifications 1 ref., 4 figs., 2 tabs.

The use of domestic microwave oven in experimental classes of organic chemistry: salicylaldehyde nitration; O uso de aparelhos de micro-ondas domesticos em aulas experimentais de quimica organica: nitracao de salicilaldeido  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

The use of microwave in chemistry has known benefits over conventional heating methods, e.g. reduced reaction times, chemical yield improvement and the possibility if reducing or eliminating the use of organic solvents. We describe herein a procedure for the nitration of salicylaldehyde in water using a domestic microwave oven, which can be used as an experiment in the undergraduate chemistry laboratory. The experiment involves safe and rapid preparation and identification of the position isomers by thin layer chromatography and {sup 1}H NMR, or by their melting points. (author)

Chemical transformations of organic matter during the composting of wood industry wastes (residues); Transformacoes quimicas da materia organica durante a compostagem de residuos da industria madeireira  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

Composting of sawdust and paper mill sludge, using a 'Kneer' process reactor, was studied in an attempt to elaborate upon organic matter transformation during the process and to define parameters to measure the compost maturity level. Temperature, electron paramagnetic resonance data, ash and C, H, N and S contents, and a spectroscopic method using ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) for alkaline (pH = 8.5) and solid samples was used to study the maturity of the compost samples. These parameters were measured in 6 humic acids extracted from the compost samples during 29 days. The results of this work show that the 'Kneer' process is efficient in transforming ligno-celulitic residues in a short time (29 days), into an organic fertilizer material with application perspectives (author)

Humidity extraction and biomass chemical composition of the elephant-grass cultivated for energetic purposes; Extracao da umidade e composicao quimica da biomassa de capim-elefante cultivado para fins energeticos  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

The experiment was conducted at the laboratory of Experimental Station of Instituto Agronomico de Campinas, in Piracicaba, SP, BR. The elephant-grass (Penissetum purpureum Schum) cv Guacu, with 6 months of development was chopped in a forage chopper regulated to cut biomass in pieces of 5 mm. 500 grams of chopped biomass was pressed in a hydraulic presser regulated for 60, 120, 180, 240 and 300 kg/cm{sup 2}. For the pressure of 60, 120, 180 and 240 kg/cm{sup 2} the presser was used in manual module, while, for the pressure of 300 kg/cm{sup 2} it was operated in the automatic module. The experiment was executed in randomized block design with 4 repetitions. When the pressure of 300 kg/cm{sup 2} was used it was extracted 21.78 % of the moisture of biomass, while the nitrogen percentage was little altered by press. (author)
