Published: December 2019

Citizenship defines the belonging of individuals to the society in which they live. It is understood that the complementary notions of ethics and sustainability must permeate citizenship today. Citizenship will gain greater expression when the individual leaves the household to be inserted in society through the vote and  professional action. For this reason, the analysis of the profile of young people who are graduating from high school is representative. Thus, this analysis aims to characterize citizenship experiences in the city of Caçador-SC by looking at the reality of students of the third year of high school from the perspective of sustainability. Methodologically, the research is qualitative-quantitative as it uses mixed techniques. It is concluded that many young people are aware of the need for an ethical and sustainable life, but some habits still prevent them from engaging in committed actions towards the society expressed by these concepts.

Published: December 2019

Mining is an extractive activity that interferes with the economic, environmental and social environment. Thus, its intrinsic characteristic is locational rigidity, environmental transformation and the generation of social and environmental risks. Thus, this study aimed to present in the literature what is the best mitigating measure to be adopted in order to try to reduce the impacts on possible collapses in the Pitinga tailings dams in the Amazon. From this study it can be stated that among the 29 dams located in the State of Amazonas, 8 are from ore tailings and are located in the municipality of Presidente Figueiredo, in the Pitinga region, as regards supposed risks of a disaster, the perceived scenario in Minas Gerais can hardly occur, since the tailings dams have a natural containment because they are built in valleys. However, in order to reduce damage and prevent possible collapse in ore enterprises, it is essential that mitigation measures are used to compensate for environmental damage caused by the practice of ore extraction.

Published: December 2019

The disordered urban growth in the city of Manaus has had serious consequences for the environment in recent years, especially towards the northern part of the city. It is extremely important to verify the environmental impacts caused by this situation, in order to define the priority areas for planning and recovery actions of the areas. Sixteen areas were identified during the study, which were divided into four quadrants to define their risk levels. The risk levels were I - low, II - medium, III - high and IV - very high. The first criterion for dividing the areas in the quadrants was to identify similar characteristics between them and the second, the proximity of the areas, considering, therefore, the size of the area, as well as the loss of vegetation cover, the state of the soil and the existence and quality of the areas. water resources near the occupied areas. It was found that the presence of streams is a decisive factor to increase the environmental risk of a occupied area, in which anthropic actions intensify natural processes. Another factor considered is related to the degree of erosive processes, therefore, the occurrence of gullies and ravines accounted for the increased risk. After accounting for recorded impacts, quadrant B, located in the Cidade de Deus neighborhood, has a high environmental risk, while quadrants C and D have medium risk. These three quadrants have streams in their areas, however, quadrant A, which has no water body, has a low degree of risk, although three of its four areas have gullies. From this analysis, it is possible to define mitigation and impact containment measures, allowing natural resources to be preserved for the well-being of everyone today and for years to come.

Published: December 2019

The spatial distribution and levels of available plant nutrients (elements) in the soil can limit coffee yield and must be evaluated for effective crop management. Therefore, we analyzed spatial variability in yield and plant nutrients in the saturation extract of a clayey Oxisol cropped with fertigated coffee. The experiment was carried out on 14 hectares of coffee in Monte Carmelo, Minas Gerais, Brazil.  Soil samples were collected (0 - 0.2m layer) at 61 regular grid points (spaced 50x50m) and used to determine plant nutrients in the saturation extract. Coffee yield was also determined at these points. Descriptive statistics were calculated for each variable and geostatistics were used to build a spatial variability model representing the physical attributes of the soil. Variographic analysis was performed using semivariograms. These showed that yield and soil chemistry varied throughout the study site. Thus, the maps generated from geostatistics can be useful tools for soil management in fertigated coffee crops.

Given the lack of research on solid waste generated by vessels and often incorrectly discarded, it became clear the need for a new methodological approach focusing on the knowledge of this theme. Thus this study was conducted focusing on the process of awareness of users of a vessel that made the route that traveled the Amazon River and Tapajós, using an environmental awareness activity, with results and immediate observations. From this, the waste was quantified before and after the interventions, which occurred from the clarification of the environment, solid waste generation, natural resources, water, among others. The research took place aboard a vessel that connects Manaus-AM to Alenquer-PA, evaluating the before and after the intervention. Given this, it is verified that the evaluation process achieved positive results in the minimization of solid waste generated, ensuring that the study has immediate effect, but the intervention measures need time for consolidation, given the responsibility of environmental education, which needs different approaches, under different eyes and with depth of knowledge, even if it requires a long-term process. Therefore, the importance of this type of activity is verified, aiming at the correct destination of the solid waste generated, in any circumstance, mainly in vessels, in different rivers, considering the condition of this natural resource. In addition, user awareness and education through environmental education is mandatory to better understand the impacts caused by different changes over time and needs to be an effective tool to ensure the success of habit transformation processes and quality improvement of life.

Published: December 2019

Waste generation has increased in many sectors given the demand and population growth. Reverse logistics comes to contribute to the return of these wastes to the production chain. In this context, frying oil is one of the most processed waste and transformed into new products, such as: biofuel, boiler fuel, soap manufacturing, concrete formwork release agent etc. Oil is one of the wastes whose recycling only happens by law, because it has low added value, unlike plastic, aluminum and copper, whose values ​​are higher. The average oil consumption in Brazil reaches 3 billion liters per year, but only 2.5% of this total is recycled, the others are discarded in the wild. The aim of this study is to analyze Reverse Logistics at different points, seeking to describe the chain steps, from the final consumer, through the PEV and ending in the companies that will reuse the frying oil already treated. In Manaus, the logistics of frying oil is done by cooperatives and private companies, being MASSEG, the largest company in the segment. This research has an explanatory character, approaching a case study, which made it possible to observe the financial and environmental feasibility of reverse logistics for the collection of frying oil, carried out at Condomínio Shopping Manauara Center, in the city of Manaus, AM. To reverse this scenario, many companies are investing in the reverse logistics process. Procedures such as leaving drums empty so that they are filled with waste oil, separation of solid waste and water from oil, are already part of the routine of tenants that also contribute to non contamination of water bodies. The collection, transportation, filtering, decantation and commercialization of the product already treated, for fuel purposes, is performed by the company itself. Finally, the company uses part of the treated oil to manufacture biodiesel, applied to the consumption of its own fleet, with no commercialization of the generated biodiesel. Thus there is a reduction in the use and costs with usual fuels (fossils), seeking to add the culture of sustainability.

The paper describes the data of an exploratory research conducted after a fire that occurred in a favela space in the described Educandos neighborhood, located in the South Zone, peripheral area of ​​Manaus. Educandos was formed over 100 years ago, when the first families began housing construction. At first glance, walking through the main streets of the neighborhood, there is no evidence of the irregular situation of the place, because masonry structures cover the stilt houses, installed near the Rio Negro bed, an area affected by the fire. Assuming that irregular occupation contributed to the cause of the fire, the study aimed to carry out the impacts caused by the fire. Tracing a qualitative and quantitative diagnosis of these impacts, it was observed through the Interaction Matrix that the impacts were negative in nature, 85% directly, has as local scale, irreversible for impacts to vegetation and social problems, high magnitude during the action of fire.

The school principal has a specific role in the school environment, which for the most part is bureaucratic. However, given the constantly changing environment in which the school operates and given the relationship between the school and the local community, the school principal needs to undertake additional responsibilities and moreover also possess specific skills in order to fulfil his or her role as a principal-leader. The ultimate research goal is to determine the purpose of leadership within the school unit. The method adopted for the study was a review of the relevant literature. In light of the present study, it is evident that in order for educational organizations, or otherwise educational units, to accomplish their purpose, effective management is a prerequisite. As regards the factors that contribute to school effectiveness, researches have shown that there is an inseparable link between school unit leadership and school effectiveness. An effective school principal-leader assists and supports teachers, while overseeing the educational work, and also encourages and promotes the involvement of teachers and parents in the decision-making process, which leads to the commitment of teachers to the school organization and increases their job satisfaction and performance. Furthermore, teachers should be able to teach all children, both those with high cognitive abilities and those with a low level of academic skills. An important role in this process plays the principal of the school. However, teachers, on the other hand, should not simply accept the principal’s vision, especially if they want to be an integral part of the process of school change. Instead, teachers should create a vision for the school together with the principal, and not just act as executors of his/her vision. Finally, four factors characterize the successful process of improving the school unit. These factors are: recognition of the improvement process by the school leadership, interaction and communication both between school members and between the school unit and the local community, the existence of a system of values, as well as cooperation between school members, and between them and society, to design and implement the selected strategies.

Given the scenario of difficulty of equalizing treatment and disposal costs, environmental risks and reduction of mass and volume of waste, the pyrolysis process presents itself as a promising option of heat treatment for the most varied types of waste. The present work aims to enable the transformation of plastic waste into combustion engine fuels. And specifically, perform the pyrolysis process for fuel generation through plastic waste, and describe the benefits generated by the transformation process. The methodology used is the case study, with qualitative approach. To obtain the fuel, it was necessary to use equipment that can degrade the plastic waste by heating it, being possible with the use of a pyrolysis oven. Heating the plastic residue inside the oven without the presence of oxygen causes the residue to melt without burning, releasing vapors, which upon exiting the heating chamber and finding the condensation chamber turns the vapor into liquid, more precisely into fuel oil. However, it was noticed that the transformation of plastic waste into fuel through pyrolysis causes the reduction of the impacts generated by solid waste disposal in the environment, water and air. In addition, it enables a new form of fuel generation, since previously it could only generate fuel from oil.
