No full textOrientador: Profa. Dra. Bruna Moraes BattistelliTrabalho de conclusão de curso (Bacharelado) - Universidade Federal do Paraná, Setor de Ciências Biológicas, Curso de Graduação em Educação FísicaInclui referênciasResumo : O presente trabalho analisa a presença da LGBTfobia no voleibol a partir das experiências de atletas, buscando compreender como a heteronormatividade e a masculinidade hegemônica influenciam as relações sociais e esportivas na modalidade. Considerando que o esporte foi historicamente estruturado sobre padrões heteronormativos, corpos e identidades que fogem desse modelo tendem a ser marginalizados. A pesquisa discute como práticas discriminatórias, exclusão simbólica e falta de representatividade afetam especialmente atletas LGBTQIAPN+, evidenciadas por casos amplamente divulgados pela mídia. Também são analisadas iniciativas de instituições esportivas, como CBV, FIVB e COI, voltadas ao combate à discriminação e à promoção da diversidade, bem como o papel da mídia na reprodução de estereótipos. A partir de uma metodologia qualitativa, fundamentada em revisão bibliográfica e roda de conversa com atletas, conclui-se que o enfrentamento da LGBTfobia no voleibol requer políticas institucionais consistentes e a valorização das vivências dessa comunidade, de modo a construir um ambiente esportivo verdadeiramente inclusivoAbstract : This work analyzes the presence of LGBTphobia in volleyball through the athletes' experiences, seeking to understand how heteronormativity and hegemonic masculinity influence social and sport relations in this environment. Given that sport has been historically structured upon heteronormative standards, human bodies and identities that deviate from this model tend to be marginalized. The research discusses how discriminatory practices, symbolic exclusion, and lack of representation specifically affect LGBTQIAPN+ athletes, as demonstrated by cases widely covered by the media. The study also examines initiatives by sports institutions, such as the CBV, FIVB, and IOC, aimed at combating discrimination and promoting diversity, as well as the role of the media in reproducing stereotypes. Based on a qualitative methodology grounded in a literature review and a discussion group with athletes, it is concluded that addressing LGBTphobia in volleyball requires consistent institutional policies and the recognition of this community's lived experiences, with the aim of building a truly inclusive sporting environmen
Study on Wastewater Pre-Treatment Plant : An Industrial Park Case Study
No full textIndustrial wastewater characteristics vary widely and can cause serious threats to the environment depending on their pollutant loads. Therefore, accurate wastewater characterization and targeted treatment are essential for safe wastewater discharge. Maintaining treatment efficiency in industrial parks can be challenging due to fluctuations in wastewater quantity and composition, requiring ongoing optimization and infrastructure upgrades on a long-term horizon. This thesis focuses on the optimization of a Wastewater Pre-Treatment Plant (WWPTP) situated in an Industrial Park in Finland. The study aims to enhance system performance and reliability by identifying practical improvements to support efficient Pre-Treatment operations before the wastewater discharge into the Municipal Wastewater Treatment system.
The wastewater was identified and characterized, along with the assessment of the WWPTP’s infrastructure, with particular focus on the biological treatment stage. Discrepancies were found between measured flow rates, where the outlet flow exceeded influent volumes by approximately 30%, raising concerns about flowmeter accuracy. Similarly, the fat load reported from Facility B (99 tons/year) surpassed the total fat load entering the WWPTP (55 tons/year), indicating inconsistencies in sampling and measurement.
The WWPTP achieves satisfactory pollutant removal, with fat, oil, and grease concentrations consistently within discharge limits. However, issues like sludge bulking, floating, and excess filamentous bacteria in biological treatment highlight the need for process optimization.
Based on these findings, a series of low-complexity optimization measures are proposed. These include verifying flow rates using portable ultrasonic flowmeters or tracer dilution methods, recalibrating instruments, improving sampling protocols, enhancing process control and implementing continuous sludge removal
Avaliação do potencial de remoção de fósforo de efluentes a partir da utilização de lodo de ETA rico em alumínio como adsorvente
No full textTCC(graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro Tecnológico. Engenharia Sanitária e Ambiental.O excesso de fósforo (P) em águas residuárias promove a eutrofização dos cursos d’água que recebem tais efluentes, gerando diversos impactos ambientais, como por exemplo, o crescimento acelerado de algas, a mortandade de peixes e a perda de qualidade do corpo d’água. Sendo assim, é necessário haver remoção do fósforo da água residuária antes de despejá-la em um corpo hídrico. Um método econômico para isto é a utilização de adsorventes de baixo custo para a remoção do fósforo por adsorção. O lodo de Estações de Tratamento de Água (ETA) contendo alumínio é um subproduto inevitável do tratamento de água potável, sendo um resíduo altamente disponível e de baixo custo, que possui a capacidade de adsorver o fósforo do efluente. O presente estudo tem como objetivo avaliar o potencial de adsorção de altas concentrações de fósforo de efluentes a partir da utilização de lodo contendo alumínio como adsorvente, comparando cenários, com diferentes concentrações de fósforo e faixas granulométricas do lodo. Através dos dados experimentais, conclui-se que a cinética de adsorção do lodo fino (dp < 0,1 mm) entra em equilíbrio em cerca de 2 horas, atingindo uma remoção de 85%. Com relação ao lodo grosso (0,1 mm < dp < 0,6 mm), a adsorção entra em equilíbrio após 24 horas de contato, removendo cerca de 76% de P. O modelo cinético que melhor se ajusta aos dados é o modelo de Pseudo-segunda Ordem. Com relação aos ensaios isotérmicos, tanto o modelo de Freundlich, quanto o de Langmuir, apresentam bons ajustes aos dados experimentais, sendo que a capacidade máxima de adsorção (qmax) é de 0,809 mg P/g para o lodo fino e 0,790 mg P/g para o lodo grosso. O presente estudo demonstra que o lodo de ETA contendo alumínio pode ser usado como adsorvente para a remoção de P em soluções aquosas. Além disso, o lodo de menor granulometria se mostra mais eficiente, pois, além de apresentar cinética de adsorção mais rápida, atinge maior capacidade de remoção, isso se deve ao fato de que esta granulometria de lodo apresenta maior área de contato superficial, se comparada ao lodo grosso.High levels of phosphorus (P) in wastewater promotes the eutrophication of watercourses that receive these effluents, causing several environmental impacts, such as accelerated algae growth, fish mortality and loss of water quality. Therefore, phosphorus must be removed from wastewater before being discharged into watercourses. An economical method is the use of low cost adsorbents for phosphorus removal by adsorption. Alum sludge, from water treatment plants, is an inevitable by-product of drinking water treatment and is a highly available, low-cost waste that is able to adsorb phosphorus from effluents. The present study aims to evaluate the adsorption capacity of high levels of phosphorus in effluents using alum sludge as adsorbent, comparing scenarios, with different phosphorus concentrations and sludge granulometry ranges. Through experimental data, it was possible to conclude that fine sludge (dp < 0,1 mm) adsorption kinetics reaches its equilibrium in about 2 hours, reaching 85% removal. As regards coarse sludge (0,1 mm < dp < 0,6 mm), adsorption equilibrates after 24 hours of contact, removing about 76% P. The kinetic model that best fits the data is the Pseudo-Second Order model. As regards the isothermal experiments, both Freundlich and Langmuir models presented good adjustments to the experimental data, whereas the maximum adsorption capacity was 0.809 mg P/g for fine sludge and 0.790 mg P/g for coarse sludge. The present study demonstrates that alum sludge from treatment plants can be use as adsorbent for P removal in aqueous solutions. Furthermore, the sludge with smaller particle size is more efficient because, besides presenting faster adsorption kinetics, it achieves a higher removal capacity, due to the fact that this sludge size has a larger contact surface area, when compared to coarse sludge

Geological and structural map of the southeastern Pag Island, Croatia: field constraints on the Cretaceous - Eocene evolution of the Dinarides foreland
No full textThe sedimentary succession exposed in the Northern Dalmatia Islands mainly consists of Cretaceous to Neogene shallow water carbonates, folded and imbricated within the External Dinarides thrust belt. During Cretaceous times, carbonate sediments were deposed on a heterogeneous, tectonically-influenced carbonate platform, which was then uplifted and eroded, as evidenced by a regional unconformity embracing the Late Cretaceous and Paleocene. Sedimentation resumed during the Eocene, when the area was part of the foreland basin of the Dinaric belt. With our geological and structural map of the southeastern Pag Island at the 1:25,000 scale, we refined the stratigraphic and structural setting and the tectono- sedimentary evolution of the area.Applied Geolog
Pressure transient analysis to investigate a coupled fracture corridor and a fault damage zone causing an early thermal breakthrough in the North Alpine Foreland Basin
No full textThe heterogeneity of the Upper Jurassic carbonate reservoir (Malm reservoir) beneath the North Alpine Foreland Basin has a significant influence on the mass and heat flow processes during geothermal exploitation. Geophysical borehole data revealed that sub-seismic scale fractures and karstified fractures occur at the inflow zones of deep geothermal wells. However, pressure transient analysis (PTA) in some previous studies concluded that it is difficult to detect the influence of sub-seismic scale features, suggesting that radial flow regime is dominant. Accordingly, a regional thermal-hydraulic model adopted the equivalent porous medium (EPM) approach, homogenizing the sub-seismic scale reservoir heterogeneities; however, unable to detect an early thermal breakthrough (ETB) in a geothermal doublet located SE of Munich. We apply PTA on three buildup tests belonging to that doublet following a deterministic approach to constrain the reservoir type by interpreting the pressure derivative (PD) plots constrained by geophysical and geological data. We derive the magnitudes of the reservoir hydraulic parameters by matching the PD plots with the selected interpretation models. We find that clustered fractures have a significant influence on the reservoir hydraulics, evidenced by trough-shaped curves in the PD plots. Linear flow regime interpreted from the interference test between the two wells indicates permeability anisotropy, which may have caused the ETB. Geophysical data interpretations indicate that these fractures correspond to a coupled fault damage zone and a fracture corridor. Finally, we present a fit-for-purpose 2D discrete fracture network model utilizing the PTA results to match our analytically calibrated model. Our study offers a potential hydraulic explanation to the cause of the ETB highlighting the importance of integrating multi-scale/disciplinary data sets to improve the reliability of dynamic reservoir models, based on which, economic-related decisions are made.Applied Geolog
