Air quality in the outdoor environment has been increasingly compromised by contamination by anthropogenic chemicals, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). These compounds have high toxicity/carcinogenicity, persistence and environmental mobility, in addition to high potential for bioaccumulation. Thus…
The Amazon has the largest rainforest in the world, which plays a key role in the water and carbon cycles. It also has an extensive biodiversity in terms of plants, animals, and microorganisms and contains about 15% of all fresh water on the planet. On the other hand, the Brazilian population in the Amazon increased from 8.2 million in 1972 to 28.1 million inhabitants in 2020, and consequ…
The proposed project aims to evaluate the presence of brominated flame retardants (BFRs) and per-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the Brazilian waste chain, assessing whether the presence of these pollutants would represent an obstacle or an additional challenge for the implementation of the Circular Economy in the country. The POPs under study have high stability in the environment, thus…
Silver nanoparticles (NPs) with different coatings have been widely used in various applications such as medicines, textile industry, treatment of contaminants, etc. As NPs reach the levels, they can influence the quality and resistance of the molecules, and by means of biomagnification and the food chain they become humans. There are only few studies available in the literature about tra…

The integrity of outdoor air is increasingly compromised by contamination from anthropogenic chemicals such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), PCBs and PBDEs are already prioritized in different categories of multilateral environmental conventions due to their tox…
Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) represent a group of synthetic organic chemicals that are priority in environmental risk assessment, due to the fact that they can cause problems to biota and human health even at low concentrations. Among POPs, brominated flame retardants (BFRs), chlorinated organophosphate retardants (Cl-OPFRs) and hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) have been widely used …
PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) and BFRs (brominated flame retardants) are groups of contaminants that, due to their persistence and impacts on the environment, are classified as Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs). PFAS represent a class of more than 4,700 synthetic chemicals that have been widely used in different products such as: water resistant coatings, oils and greases.…
The high concern with recurring environmental issues, especially global warming, coupled with a concrete search for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere, has leveraged the research and development of technologies to capture and store CO2. Solid adsorbent materials are being used with the aim of adsorbing polluting gases. One of these materials is activated carbon fr…
The water crisis in artificial reservoirs have direct influence on the availability in quantity and quality of water for public supply. The Itupararanga and Rappbode reservoir supplying millions of people in the regions where they live and have great social and economic importance. The project aims to quantify the particle removal and carbon storage in the sediments as well as the identif…

Per and polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs) represent a class of thousands of synthetic chemicals that have been widely used in different products, such as, water-resistant coatings, oils and fats, paper packaging for contact with food, foam to fight against fires, surfactants, surface treatment and insecticides, among others. Brominated flame retardants (BFRs), on the other hand, represen…
When introduced in environment, manufactured nanoparticles (NPs) can interact with biotic and abiotic molecules yielding a transformed NP usually coated with these molecules (natural coating). These different forms of the NPs should be considered as new materials because they will have distinct properties from the as released NPs forms. In fact, these in situ transformations of the NPs ha…
In this project we intend to prepare and evaluate the performance of polymeric microbeads containing alginate and biochar to immobilization of phosphorus and bacteria Rahnella aquatilis HX2. To achieve this goal biochar will be prepared by calcination of sugar cane bagasse at different temperatures (300-700 ° C), which will serve as adsorbents of phosphate ions and bacteria Rahnella aquat…
