Solos contaminados (remediação)
Abstract in Portuguese
Devido à alta toxicidade, a produção e comercialização dos PCBs (Polychlorinated Biphenyls - Bifenilas Policloradas) estão proibidas no mundo todo. Esses compostos foram utilizados principalmente como base de misturas comerciais em óleos dielétricos para transformadores e capacitores. Hoje existem diversas áreas contaminadas com essas substâncias que são de difícil degradação ocasionada pela sua elevada estabilidade térmica e química. Há diversos estudos sobre diferentes técnicas de tratamento de áreas contaminadas por PCBs. A técnica proposta nesse trabalho foi a de oxidação química através do reagente de Fenton. Para isso, foi simulado em laboratório experimentos de tratamento de solo contaminados artificialmente por ascarel (mistura comercial de PCBs). A oxidação foi realizada segundo a técnica do planejamento experimental fatorial de dois níveis e duas variáveis. Manteve-se constante a concentração do contaminante - em torno de 6000 mg de PCB/ kg de solo - e variou-se a concentração de Fe2+ (0,04 a 0,1 mol/L) e H2O2 (2,07 a 4,15 mol/L). Os ensaios foram realizados ainda nos seguintes tempos de reação: 0, 5, 24 e 48 horas. A análise dos dados foi realizada através de cromatografia gasosa acoplada a um espectrômetro de massa - GC/MS. Dos resultados, concluiu-se que o experimento cuja concentração do reagente de Fenton era 4,15 mol/L de H2O2 e 0,04 mol/L de Fe2+, apresentou melhor percentual de remoção, em torno de 76% para o pentaclorobifenila, 67% para o hexaclorobifenila e 72% para o heptaclorobifenila. Além disso, observou-se que, dentro da região experimental estudada, o efeito da concentração de íons ferrosos foi mais significativo do que o causado pela concentração de peróxido de hidrogênio e que o mesmo tem um efeito negativo pois aumentando a concentração dos íons ferrosos diminui-se a remoção dos contaminantes.

Abstract in English
Production and trading of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are prohibited at whole world due to their high toxicity. They were used mainly as dielectric oils for transformers and capacitors. Recently there are many contaminated areas with these compounds. The high thermic and chemistry stability of PCBs are responsible for their hard degradation. Many studies have been conducted about several techniques of soil remediation. The main purpose of this research is to study chemical oxidation using Fenton's reagent to soils treatment. It was simulated in laboratory experiments of soil treatment which was artificially contaminated with Ascarel (PCBs commercial mixture). Process oxidation was made according to factorial experimental planning technique of two levels and two variables (22). The contaminant concentration was constant - 6000 mg PCB/ kg soil - and it was varied the Fe2+ concentration (0,04 mol/L to 0,10 mol/L) and H2O2 concentration (2,07 mol/L to 4,15 mol/L). The times reaction of experiments were: 0, 5, 24 and 48 hours. It was used gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometer - GC/MS. The better result shown removal rate of 76% to pentachlorobiphenyl, 67% to hexachlorobiphenyl and 72% to heptachlorobiphenyl, experimental conditions were Fe2+ concentration of 0,04 mol/L and H2O2 concentration of 4,15 mol/L. Besides it was observed that studied region the concentration effect of ferrous ions was more significant than concentration effect of hydrogen peroxide. The concentration effect of ferrous ions was negative on system because removal rate of contaminants decreases when [Fe2+] increases.
