COMPOSIÇÃO QUÍMICA DA MADEIRA DE Cordia trichotoma (Vell.) Arráb. ex Steud.

The pressure on rainforests due to fragmentation of natural landscapes has caused changes in the substitution pattern of the species present in the plant community. In the case of abandoned pastures, there is an increased environmental vulnerability to colonization by invasive exotic grasses, which represent a barrier to the establishment of native plants, since the dispersion and seed germination until the later stages of their development. We proposed to discuss some of the processes of natural regeneration in pastures, addressing issues that hinder the recruitment of desirable woody species and, in this context, the exposure of some methodologies based on the concept of nucleation that can help this process. Through understanding of the mechanisms involved in the maintenance of plant communities, we observed that the seed germination and seedling recruitments are crucial steps in the process of vegetation restoration. Because only a narrow range of conditions is suitable (safe sites) for the recruitment, successful regeneration depends on the environment ability to provide an appropriate bed for germination (seedbed). The use of methodologies that aimed the natural regeneration, to be effective in pasture areas, should be technically well established and adequate to the local reality, because although they have promising initial results, may no longer be effective over time.Há variações nas composições químicas, físicas e na anatomia da madeira, entre espécies e também dentro da mesma espécie, as quais variam significativamente com a altura do tronco e na direção da medula até a casca. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi analisar a composição química da madeira de Cordia trichotoma. Foram analisadas três árvores, coletadas na Região Noroeste do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, das quais foi retirado um disco de madeira localizado próximo da base. Quantificou-se o teor de cinzas e de extrativos pela norma TAPPI e o óleo essencial foi extraído usando o método por arraste de vapor. Também foram determinados os elementos químicos presentes nas amostras de madeira, na sua forma natural, e moída, por espectrometria de fluorescência de raios-X por energia dispersiva –EDXRF. A madeira de Cordia trichotoma apresentou teores médios de cinzas e de extrativos totais de 1,39% e 28,22%, respectivamente. Na composição química do óleo essencial foi possível a identificação de dois principais componentes do óleo o α-cadinol e do α-muurolol. Os elementos minerais mais abundantes foram o potássio, cálcio, magnésio, fósforo, enxofre e silício. O ferro foi o elemento com menor concentração encontrado na madeira pela técnica de análise utilizada

Avaliação dos resíduos de uma serraria para a produção de celulose kraft

http://dx.doi.org/10.5902/1980509814589The forest-based industries have low yield and generate large amounts of waste, especially the primary processing industries, such as sawmills. In Brazil, initiatives are being created to combine the use of sawmill residues to pulp production. With this in mind, this study aimed to evaluate the performance of a medium-sized sawmill in the city of Rio Grande, in Rio Grande do Sul state, and to promote physical and chemical analysis of waste wood generated in the sawing process. It was used 20 logs of Pinus elliottii, divided into two diameter classes. The residues, except the sawdust, collected for analysis were disposed in the courtyard of the company in the form of chips.The following physical and chemical properties of the chips were examined: density, extractives content soluble in acetone, acetyl groups, soluble and insoluble lignin on acid (Klason lignin), uronic groups and carbohydrates. Comparing the results of the wood properties to the ones found in literature, it was evaluated the quantity and quality of waste that can be used as feedstock for the production of kraft pulp. As the main results there was a slight increase of sawing yields in the larger diameters logs compared to the smaller diameters. From the physical and chemical analyses, it was obtained the following results: density of 0.402 g / cm ³, cellulose content of 43.67% and 24.37% for hemicellulose, klason lignin of 26.75% and 3,80% for extractives content. As conclusion, the low sawing yield can be associated to the lack of a classification diametric and appropriate diagrams sections, resulting in a greater loss in the form of waste. Regarding the chemical and physical composition of the sawmill residues, the results were within the standards of quality wood used for kraft pulp of softwood material, presenting some advantages over younger woods commonly used in industry. http://dx.doi.org/10.5902/1980509814589As indústrias de base florestal apresentam baixo rendimento e geram grande quantidade de resíduos, especialmente as indústrias de transformação primária como, por exemplo, as serrarias. No Brasil, estão sendo criadas iniciativas para aliar a utilização desses resíduos à produção de celulose. Dentro deste propósito, o presente trabalho teve como objetivos avaliar o rendimento de uma serraria de médio porte localizada no município de Rio Grande, RS, e promover análises físico-químicas dos resíduos gerados na etapa de desdobro. Foram utilizadas 20 toras de Pinus elliottii, divididas em duas classes diamétricas. Os resíduos, com exceção da serragem, coletados para análises, encontravam-se dispostos no pátio da empresa, na forma de cavacos. As seguintes propriedades físico-químicas dos cavacos foram analisadas: densidade básica, teor de extrativos solúvel em acetona, grupos acetilas, lignina solúvel e insolúvel em ácido (lignina Klason), grupos urônicos e carboidratos. Como principais resultados verificou-se um ligeiro aumento do rendimento em madeira serrada das madeiras de maiores diâmetros em relação às de menores diâmetros. Das análises físico-químicas foram obtidos os seguintes resultados: densidade básica de 0,402 g/cm³, teor de celulose de 37,42% e de 24,37% para hemiceluloses, lignina Klason de 26,75% e teor de extrativos de 3,80%. Concluiu-se, nesse estudo, que o baixo rendimento da serraria foi devido à falta de uma classificação diamétrica e diagramas de cortes apropriados para as toras, o que resulta em maior perda de madeira na forma de resíduos. Em relação às características química e física dos resíduos madeireiros, os resultados mostraram-se dentro dos padrões de qualidade da madeira utilizada para a produção de celulose kraft de fibra longa e, em algumas situações, apresentando vantagens em relação às madeiras mais jovens usualmente utilizadas pela indústria

As xilanas nas propriedades de polpas marrons de eucalipto

<p>O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar as propriedades de polpas kraft marrons de madeiras de<bold> Eucalyptus grandis</bold>e<bold> Eucalyptus urograndis</bold>de composição química distinta, principalmente em relação aos seus conteúdos de xilanas, para fabricação de papéis. As polpas marrons de número kappa 17-18 e conteúdos de xilanas variando de 6 a 21% foram produzidas sob diferentes protocolos de cozimento: 1) kraft convencional; 2) pré-hidrólise kraft; 3) kraft de alta alcalinidade; e 4) kraft de alto rendimento. As polpas marrons foram refinadas em moinho PFI e seus respectivos papéis produzidos foram avaliados quanto às suas propriedades físico-mecânicas e ópticas. De modo geral, as propriedades de resistência dos papéis foram beneficiadas pelo conteúdo de xilanas. Para níveis muito altos de refino, ocorreram quedas bruscas de resistência ao rasgo para os papéis e o consumo de energia de refino foi influenciado pelo conteúdo de xilanas nas polpas marrons. Os mais altos valores de volume específico aparente foram obtidos para os papéis com baixo conteúdo de xilanas, o que os torna interessantes, se branqueados, no segmento de papéis tissue. Os papéis com elevado conteúdo de xilanas apresentaram-se economicamente atrativos e com características de resistências adequadas para o segmento de papéis de imprimir e escrever.</p
