Alexander of Aphrodisias and De Interpretatione: The Case of the Proposition
This article considers a passage in Alexander of Aphrodisias' commentary on the Prior Analytics (in APr., 10, 13-28) concerning the definition of irporaut; (premiss or proposition). Its interest lies in the fact that Alexander establishes a very articulated relationship between the defmition of /cookout; that we find in Aristotle's Prior Analytics (24a16-17) and that of arcotpavrixo; kayo; (proposition) in De interpretatione (4, 17a2-3). Nonetheless, the author aims to demonstrate that this relationship is problematic and unnecessary because the definition of /cookout; in Prior Analytics is in fact independent from the definition of eurocavruce; koyoc. However, it is also the author's intention to show why Alexander does this
Substances and relatives in Aristotle's categories (chapter 7)
The chapter on relatives in Categories (chap. 7) can easily be divided into three sections. The first gives an initial definition of relatives (6a36-37), the second deals with the properties fo relatives (6b15-8a12), and the third raises an aporia prompting Aristotle to propose a new definition of relatives, which apparently provides an answer (8a13-b21). The chapter's structure is quite clear, yet each section contains a problem that seems to undermine its consistency. In this article the Author presents Aristotle's two definitions of relatives, focusing on the aporia that takes him from the first to the second. To what extent the second definition can be seen to solve the aporia is also examined
Alessandro di Afrodisia et il De interpretatione: il caso della proposizione
Alexander of Aphrodisias and De Interpretatione: the Case of the Proposition. This article considers a passage in Alexander of Aphrodisias’ commentary on the Prior Analytics (in APr., 10, 13-28) concerning the definition of proposal (premiss or proposition). Its interest lies in the fact that Alexander establishes a very articulated relationship between the definition of proposal that we find in Aristotle’s Prior Analytics (24a16-17) and that of Apophantic reason (position) in De interpretatione (4, 17a2-3). Nonetheless, the author aims to demonstrate that this relationship is problematic and unnecessary because the definition of proposal in Prior Analytics is in fact independent from the definition of Apophantic reason. However, it is also the author’s intention to show why Alexander does this.

Efecto de la demineralización en la pirólisis de aserrín de una especie invasiva
Se estudia comparativamente la cinética del proceso de pirólisis de aserrín de Cina-cina, prístina y sometida a un tratamiento de demineralización, mediante análisis termogravimétrico no isotérmico, con el fin de examinar el efecto de los minerales naturalmente presentes en este recurso biomásico. Asimismo, a partir de ensayos en un equipo escala banco, se analizan los rendimientos de los tres productos de pirólisis (gases, bio-char y bio-oil) a 500ºC, su composición y otras características físicoquímicas. La demineralización desplaza el inicio del proceso y la máxima velocidad de degradación hacia temperaturas mayores, y produce un aumento en la energía de activación. El bio-char proveniente del aserrín demineralizado presenta un mayor desarrollo poroso que el resultante del aserrín prístino. La remoción de minerales aumenta la producción de levoglucosano en los productos volátiles condensables, a expensas de una disminución en los furanos, e incrementa el poder calorífico superior de los gases generados.Fil: Gurevich Messina, Luciano Ignacio.

In-situ catalytic pyrolysis of peanut shells using modified natural zeolite
In-situ catalytic pyrolysis of peanut (Arachis hypogaea) shells was investigated employing modified clinoptilolite. Likewise, conventional pyrolysis of the shells was explored to quantify the deoxygenation degree of bio-oil. Two solid catalysts obtained from natural clinoptilolite were used: one which retained most of the native cations and another one subjected to ion exchange treatment to develop Brønsted acid sites. These catalysts were characterized using different techniques, such as scanning electron microscopy with X-ray microanalysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy by pyridine adsorption, and nitrogen sorptometry. Assays in a bench scale installation based on a fixed bed reactor were conducted at 500 °C and the yields of the three kinds of pyrolysis products (bio-oil, bio-char and gases) were determined. Likewise, the composition and other physical properties of the bio-oil and gases were investigated. Both catalysts led to reduce the oxygen content of the bio-oil, improving its high heating value. On the other hand, catalytic pyrolysis promoted a slight reduction in bio-oil production at expenses of an increase in gases generation. The catalyst subjected to ion exchange performed better than the native form as less water was generated in the catalytic cracking.Fil: Gurevich Messina, Luciano Ignacio. Universidad de Buenos Aires.

Effect of mineral matter removal on pyrolysis of wood sawdust from an invasive species
Kinetics of the pyrolysis of wood sawdust from the invasive species Parkinsonia aculeata, untreated and demineralized by a mild acid treatment, is comparatively investigated in order to examine the effect of the removal of minerals naturally present in the biomass. Non-isothermal thermogravimetric analysis from room temperature up to 500°C is applied for this purpose. Demineralization shifts the process onset and the maximum degradation rate to higher temperatures, and leads to enhance the activation energy from 56 to 60 kJ mol–1, pointing to a catalytic role of alkaline and alkaline earth metals in the biomass. Likewise, the three kinds of pyrolysis products (gas, bio-char, and bio-oil) are obtained from experiments performed in a bench-scale installation at 500°C. Yields and physicochemical characteristics of the pyrolysis products are determined. The pronounced reduction in the content of metals in the sawdust leads to increase bio-oil yield in around 10%, the specific surface area of the bio-char, from ≈ 2 to ≈ 74 m2 g–1, and the higher heating value of all the pyrolysis products.Fil: Gurevich Messina, Luciano Ignacio.

Copyrolysis of peanut shells and cassava starch mixtures: Effect of the components proportion
Copyrolysis of peanut (Arachis hypogaea) shells and cassava (Manihot esculenta) starch using mixtures of different proportions was examined to improve yield of the bio-oil and its quality. Pyrolysis of the individual components was also investigated in order to quantify the improvement of the measured properties. The kinetics of pyrolysis/copyrolysis was characterized by thermogravimetrical analysis and the application of two different models: one which takes into account the deactivation of the solid, and another one which assumes a normal distribution of the activation energy. Interactions between the starch and the shells were inferred since maximum reaction rates were, in all cases, lower than the weighed average values obtained for the pyrolysis of the individual components. Furthermore, both the bio-oil yield and the water content of the liquids showed synergistic effects. A mixture composed by 75 wt% of starch and 25 wt% of peanut shells led to maximize the yield of the bio-oil (58.2 wt%), while its water content was reduced in 3.4% in comparison with the value expected from the weighed average of the individual results. On the other hand, the addition of the starch to the peanut shells led to a bio-char with less ash content. It could be more suitable for further combustion in steam boilers.Fil: Gurevich Messina, Luciano Ignacio. Universidad de Buenos Aires.
