| Abstract | |
This study is an investigation of the interaction of lubricants employed in metal machining and natural organic matter (humic substances), their mobility in soil, microbial degradation and their removal from the soil. Also, was performed study of changes in characteristic on fluids after their use. On degradation process from fluid samples, contaminated soils submitted to different environment factors, were used four treatments : (i) native microorganisms named control sample; (ii) control sample added by organic matter from peat; (iii) control sample added by microorganisms existing in flowing out from cutting machines; and (iv) control sample with addition of microorganisms from composting. For degradation research by no effect from climate parameters were used sample of contaminated soil been investigated in stove and microorganisms inoculation in culture mean with and without addition of alternative carbon source. As analytical techniques were used GC-FID and GG-MS. These techniques are both indicated for fluid composition studies and microbial degradation product. Analytic methods had been optimized to be employed on environmental monitoring and degradation studies. The FTIR and espectrofluorimetric methods were used for the fluid identification and quantification. Were observed a notable interaction between soluble fluids and soil organic matter, thought it had been verified high mobility for some compounds as well an accelerated process of degradation during their use. Otherwise, insoluble fluids were more immobile been restrained in soil organic matter, nevertheless, were readily degraded in environment than soluble ones. Organic matter and composting microorganisms\' addition accelerated the degradation process for all cutting fluids investigated. (AU) | |
