Co-digestión anaerobia de la fracción orgánica de residuos sólidos urbanos y su lixiviado / Anaerobic co-digestion of the organic fraction of urban solid waste and its leachate

RESUMEN Los residuos sólidos urbanos (RSU), al ser vertidos sin tratamiento apropiado, ocasionan daños severos al medio ambiente influyendo en la calidad de vida de la población; por esta razón actualmente se le presta atención al adecuado manejo de estos residuos. En este trabajo se estudia la reducción de la fracción orgánica (FORSU), de residuos sólidos generados por un grupo poblacional, tomando como referente una de las residencias estudiantiles de la Universidad de Oriente. La generación de FORSU en la residencia es de 0,06 kg/habdía, con un contenido de sólidos totales de 30,9 ± 5,3 %, de los cuáles el 81,7 ± 0,6 % son sólidos volátiles. Se evalúa la digestión anaerobia la FORSU, mediante un sistema de tratamiento en dos etapas. La primera etapa se realiza en un reactor en lote de lecho escurrido, que permitió un tratamiento discontinuo e in situ de la FORSU, en co-digestión anaerobia con un 25 % de estiércol vacuno. En una segunda etapa, se evalúa el tratamiento anaerobio para los lixiviados que se generan en el reactor en lote, empleando un reactor UASB. En el reactor en lote se alcanzó una remoción de sólidos volátiles del 44,1 %, mientras que en el reactor UASB se removió un 81,2 % de DQO. Como resultado la evaluación del sistema de tratamiento, se alcanzó una productividad total de 5,37 LCH4-kgSV -1-d-1.

ABSTRACT Urban solid waste (MSW), when are discharged without proper treatment, causes severe damage to the environment, influencing the population's quality of life. For this reason, attention is currently paid to the proper handling of this waste. This paper studies the reduction of the organic fraction of solid waste (OFMSW), generated by a population group, taking as reference one of the Student Residences of the Universidad de Oriente. The generation of OFMSW in the residence is 0.06 kg/inhabday, with a total solid content of 30.9 ± 5.3%, of which 81.7 ± 0.6% are volatile solids. The anaerobic digestion of OFMSW is evaluated through a two-stage treatment system. The first stage is performed in a drained-bed batch reactor, which allowed discontinuous and in-situ treatment of OFMSW, in anaerobic co-digestion with 25% of cow manure. In a second stage, the anaerobic treatment for the leachates generated in the batch reactor is evaluated, using a UASB reactor. In the batch reactor a removal of volatile solids of 44.1% was achieved, while in the UASB reactor 81.2% of COD was removed. As a result of the evaluation of the treatment system, total productivity of 5.37 L CH4 -kgSV -1-d-1 was achieved.

Resíduos sólidos em um sistema de drenagem urbana no município de Santa Maria (RS) / Solid waste in a urban drainage system in municipality of Santa Maria (RS), Brazil

RESUMO Com o crescimento da população e o consequente aumento da urbanização, o lançamento de resíduos sólidos nos sistemas de drenagem urbana tem aumentado nos últimos anos, principalmente nas regiões periféricas das cidades. Este estudo teve como objetivo qualificar e quantificar os resíduos sólidos no arroio Cancela-Tamandai, localizado em área urbana, no município de Santa Maria (RS). Foram coletados ao todo 1.153,2 kg de resíduos sólidos com uma precipitação pluviométrica total para o período de novembro de 2012 a janeiro de 2013 de 518,94 mm, sendo, desses, 93,9% composto por matéria orgânica, sendo a maioria vegetação. O arroio Cancela-Tamandai apresentou uma carga de resíduos sólidos igual a 17,27 ou 0,424 kg.hab-1.ano-1. A curva de previsão de resíduos sólidos orgânicos drenados em função da precipitação pluviométrica apresentou correlação de 76,4%, um parâmetro importante para a tomada de decisão dos gestores municipais em relação aos resíduos sólidos gerados. Assim, conceber estratégias para o monitoramento desses resíduos representa passo importante na busca de soluções que visem um melhor gerenciamento de bacias hidrográficas urbanas.

ABSTRACT With population growth, and the resulting increase in urbanization, the disposal of solid waste in the urban drainage system has increased in recent years, especially in the outskirts of the cities. This study aimed to qualify and quantify the solid waste in Cancela-Tamandai's stream, located in an urban area, in the municipality of Santa Maria (RS). Were collected in total 1.153.2 kg of solid waste with a rainfall total for the period of 518.94 mm, 93.9% of these being composed of organic matter with the majority of vegetation debrid. Cancela-Tamandai's watershed presented a load of solid waste equal to 17.27 or 0.424 kg.inhab-1.year-1. The prediction curve of drained solid waste due to the rainfall correlated 76.4%, important parameter for decision making of municipal managers in relation to solid waste generated. Thus, devise strategies for monitoring these residues represents an important step in finding solutions aimed at better management of urban watersheds.

Narcisismo, fetichismo, consumismo e exclusão social: articulações a partir do filme o cheiro do ralo / Narcisismo, fetichismo, consumismo y exclusión social: articulaciones a partir de la película el olor del desagüe / Narcissism, fetishism, consumerism and social exclusion: relationships found in the movie drained

A partir da análise do filme brasileiro O cheiro do ralo (Dahlia, 2007), o presente trabalho procura demonstrar uma possível origem metapsicológica da chamada cultura do narcisismo no caráter excludente da sociedade de consumo. Para tanto, discute-se a possibilidade de articulação entre o social e o psíquico no campo da psicanálise. Por fim, tecem-se considerações sobre o fetichismo, ainda a partir da película, visto sob a óptica da dimensão social do sintoma.

Through the analysis of the brazilian film drained (Dahlia, 2007), we seek to demonstrate a possible metapsychological source of the so-called culture of narcissism found in an exclusionary consumerist society. Extending from this, we discuss the possibility of links between the social field and the psychological field. Finally, based on the film, we make some considerations about fetishism, from the perspective of the social dimension of the symptom.

A partir del análisis de la película brasileña El olor del desagüe (Dahlia, 2007), este trabajo trata de demostrar una posible fuente metapsicológica de la nombrada cultura del narcisismo en el carácter excluyente de la sociedad de consumo. Con este fin, se discute la posibilidad de vínculos entre lo social y lo psíquico en El campo del psicoanálisis. Por último, todavía a partir de la película, se tejen consideraciones sobre el fetichismo visto desde la perspectiva de la dimensión social del sintoma.

Autologous transfusion of drained blood from abdomen for conservative treatment of blunt trauma of spleen / 中华急诊医学杂志

Objective To study the safety and feasibility of auto-transfusion of blood drained from patients own abdomen in patients with blunt trauma of spleen as conservative treatment.Methods From January 1,2008 to December 31,2010,94 patients were diagnosed to be blunt trauma of spleen.After careful assessment and series lab tests,44 patients were eligible to be non-operative treated.They were randomly (random number) into two groups in equal number (n =22).The patients of auto-transfusion group were transfused the blood drained from patients own abdomen,and the control group was transfused red blood cells from donors.The comparison of demographics,ISS (injury severity scores),AAST (American Association for the Surgery of Trauma) and lab findings between two groups before and after transfusion with t test and chi-square test.Then paired-samples t test was used to analyze the hemodynamics,blood components and blood clotting indexes of two groups before and after blood transfusion.Meanwhile t test was done as well to compare the differences in the above variables between two groups after transfusion.SPSS 10.0 version was used to analyze the collected data.Results There were no significant differences in demographics and physical condition between two groups.After blood transfusion,the hemodynamics and anemia of two groups were significantly improved,and there were no differences in the changes of the above variables between two groups.Conclusions Blood drained from patient own abdomen can be auto-transfused in patients with blunt trauma of spleen treated non-operatively as safe and efficient as transfusion of blood from donors.This study proves the autologous transfusionto to be an easy,feasible and economic measures in urgent situation as expected.
