Artigo IPEN-doc 28871 Assessment of bone dose response using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy2022 - CASTRO, PEDRO A.A. de; DIAS, DERLY A.; DEL-VALLE, MATHEUS; VELOSO, MARCELO N.; SOMESSARI, ELIZABETH S.R.; ZEZELL, DENISE M.The health care application of ionizing radiation has expanded worldwide during the last several decades. While the health impacts of ionizing radiation improved patient care, inaccurate handling of radiation technology is more prone to potential health risks. Therefore, the present study characterizes the bone dose response using bovine femurs from a slaughterhouse. The gamma irradiation was designed into low-doses (0.002, 0.004 and 0.007 kGy) and high-doses (1, 10, 15, 25, 35, 50 and 60 kGy), all samples received independent doses. The combination of FTIR spectroscopy and PLS-DA allows the detection of differences in the control group and the ionizing dose, as well as distinguishing between high and low radiation doses. In this way, our findings contribute to future studies of the dose response to track ionizing radiation effects on biological systems.Artigo IPEN-doc 27899 AuCu/TiO2 catalysts prepared using electron beam irradiation for the preferential oxidation of carbon monoxide in hydrogen-rich mixtures2021 - ALENCAR, C.S.L.; PAIVA, A.R.N.; SILVA, L.G.A.; SOMESSARI, E.S.R.; VAZ, J.M.; SPINACE, E.V.The major part of the world production of hydrogen (H2) is originated from a combination of methane steam reforming and water gas shift reaction resulting in an H2 rich mixture known as reformate gas, which contains about 1% vol (10,000 ppm) of carbon monoxide (CO). The preferential oxidation reaction of CO in H2 rich mixtures (CO PROX) has been considered a very promising process for H2 purification, reducing CO for values below 50 ppm allowing its use in PEMFC Fuel Cells. Au nanoparticles supported on TiO2 (Au/TiO2) catalysts have been shown good activity and selectivity for CO PROX reaction in the temperature range between 20 80 ºC; however, the catalytic activity strongly depends on the preparation method. Also, the addition of Cu to the Au/TiO2 catalyst could increase the activity and selectivity for CO PROX reaction. In this work, AuCu/TiO2 catalysts with composition 0.5%Au0.5%Cu/TiO2 were prepared in a single step using electron beam irradiation, where the Au3+ and Cu2+ ions were dissolved in water/2 propanol solution, the TiO2 support was dispersed and the obtained mixture was irradiated under stirring at room temperature using different dose rates (8 64 kGy s 1) and total doses (144 576 kGy). The catalysts were characterized by energy dispersive X ray analysis, X ray diffraction transmission electron microscopy, temperature programmed reduction and tested for CO PROX reaction. The best result was obtained with a catalyst prepared with a dose rate of 64 kGy s 1 and a total dose of 576 kGy showed a CO conversion of 45% and a CO2 selectivity of 30% at 150 ºC.Artigo IPEN-doc 26284 AuCu/TiO2 catalysts prepared using electron beam irradiation for the preferential oxidation of carbono monoxide in hydrogen-rich mixtures2019 - ALENCAR, CATARINE S.L.; PAIVA, ANA R.N.; SILVA, LEONARDO G. de A. e; SOMESSARI, ELIZABETH S.R.; VAZ, JORGE M.; SPINACE, ESTEVAM V.The major part of the world production of hydrogen is originated from a combination of methane steam reforming and water gas shift reaction resulting in a n H 2 rich mixture known as reformate gas, which contains about 1% vol (10, 000 p pm) of carbon monoxide (CO).

The best result was obtained with a catalyst prepared with a dose rate of 64 kGy s 1 and a dose of 576 kGy showed a CO conversion of 45% and a CO 2 selectivity of 30% at 150 o C.
