Artigo IPEN-doc 26909 Effects of contamination with toxic metals on the environmental quality of Sepetiba Bay (SE Brazil)2015 - RIBEIRO, ANDREZA P.; FIGUEIREDO, ANA M.G.; SANTOS, JOSE O. dos; FERREIRA, PAULO A. de L.; GRAUDENZ, GUSTAVO S.; RUIZ, MAURO S.; MAHIQUES, MICHEL M. de; FIGUEIRA, RUBENS C.L.; WASSERMAN, JULIO C. de F.A.Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to address the case of toxic metal contamination of Sepetiba Bay caused by the Ingá Company. The paper reviews the history of the contamination and discusses the current presence of metals in the bay sediments, demonstrating that the toxic metals are clearly enriched. Sepetiba Bay is prone to significant dredging activities that make metals available in the food chain, affecting human populations, mainly fishermen communities. Design/methodology/approach – The study presents the case of the Ingá Company based on international literature and data provided by previous studies. Findings – Through the analysis and compilation of diverse data from the literature, this study demonstrates that the Ingá Company is a major source of Cd, Pb and Zn due to its calamine processing activities used to obtain high purity Zn. Originality/value – This study highlights important research to complete the historical scenario of heavy metal contamination of the Sepetiba Bay by Ingá Company. The results indicate that the contaminants from the Ingá Company can indeed be traced in the sediments of Sepetiba Bay. These data have the utmost value for the environmental management of this coastal system, because such high concentrations of toxic metals in marine sediments have serious implications for the environmental quality of the bay and may negatively affect biota and human health. Therefore, this study suggests that it is now necessary to monitor this region for contamination continuously.Capítulo IPEN-doc 22340 Brazilian PGE research data survey on urban and roadside soils2015 - FIGUEIREDO, ANA M.G.; RIBEIRO, ANDREZA P.Since the 1990s, investigations on the increase of platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd), and rhodium (Rh) levels in urban environments of big cities all over the world due to catalytic converters emissions have increased enormously, mainly in developed countries. Nevertheless, relatively few studies were performed in developing countries, such as Brazil. The state of São Paulo is the most populous and richest Brazilian state, and the city of São Paulo is the largest city in South America, and the 7th largest metropolitan region of the world. In this article, a discussion about the results obtained for the platinum group elements (PGE) Pt, Pd and Rh concentrations in soils adjacent to a major road in São Paulo state and in soils adjacent to seven main high density traffic avenues in the metropolitan region of São Paulo City are presented. Pt, Pd and Rh were found in much higher concentrations than PGE geogenic background, showing a catalytic converter origin. The platinum group elements levels obtained in São Paulo urban soils were much higher than those obtained for the roadside soils. Pd levels about seven times higher than the results obtained for the roadside soils were observed. The highest concentrations obtained for Pt (208 ng g−1 ) and Rh (45 ng g−1 ) were of about 12 and 5 times higher than the results obtained for the roadside soils. The results indicate that the PGE concentrations in São Paulo soils are directly influenced by traffic conditions. The concentrations of traffic-related elements such as Pb, Zn and Cu were also determined in the studied soils. Factorial analysis and cluster analysis discriminated the traffic related metals from PGE in the urban soils. However, in the roadside soils PGE were well correlated with Pb, Cu and Zn. The results obtained at present for PGE levels in São Paulo soils demonstrate the importance of continuous monitoring, since the rapid increase of the vehicular fleet in Brazil should also increase PGE emissions.Resumo IPEN-doc 22212 Avaliação da mobilidade de As, Cr e Zn em sedimentos coletados em diferentes períodos na Baía de Sepetiba, Rio de Janeiro2005 - CORTEZ, VINICIUS D.; FIGUEIREDO, ANA M.G.; RIBEIRO, ANDREZA P.; SANTOS, JOSE O.; WASSERMANN, JULIO C.Artigo IPEN-doc 19915 Utilização de cascas de árvores como biomonitores da poluição atmosférica no Parque Ibirapuera - São Paulo2014 - MARTINS, ANA P.G.; MARTINS, MARCO A.G.; NEGRI, ELNARA M.; SCAPIN, MARCOS A.; RIBEIRO, ANDREZA P.; SAIKI, MITIKO; SALDIVA, PAULO H.N.Resumo IPEN-doc 20220 Assessment of metal atmospheric pollution during and after the construction of a peripheralhighway using Tillandsia usneoides as biomonitor2014 - FIGUEIREDO, ANA M.G.; ALBUQUERQUE, CAROLINE R.; RIBEIRO, ANDREZA P.; SILVA, BARBARA C. da; NIEVOLA, CATARINA C.; DOMINGOS, MARISA; FIGUEIRA, RUBENS C.L.Resumo IPEN-doc 14783 Pt, Pd and Rh levels in soils of Sao Paulo city, Brazil: assessment of automobile catalytic converter pollution2009 - RIBEIRO, A.P.; FIGUEIREDO, A.M.G.; SARKIS, J.E.S.; HORTELLANI, M.A.; KAKAZU, M.; SILVA, N.C.; NAMMOURA NETO, G.M.Resumo IPEN-doc 14664 Determination of Pt, Pd and Rh in reference materials by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry after ultrasound-assisted acqua regia leaching2009 - RIBEIRO, A.P.; FIGUEIREDO, A.M.G.; SARKIS, J.E.S.; KAKAZU, M.; HORTELLANI, M.A.Resumo IPEN-doc 10033 Geostatistical mapping of the concentration of Zn in the Bay of Sepetiba in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil2004 - RIBEIRO, A.P.; FIGUEIREDO, A.M.G.; WASSERMAN, J.C.; SANTOS, J.O.Resumo IPEN-doc 08998 Determination of heavy metals and other trace elements in lake sediments from a sewage treatment plant by neutron activation analysis2003 - RIBEIRO, A.P.; FIGUEIREDO, A.M.G.; SIGOLO, J.B.Resumo IPEN-doc 17625 Elemental composition evaluation in lichens from an industrial area of shale oil processing in São Materus do Sul, Paraná, Brazil2011 - FERREIRA, ANGELICA B.; SAIKI, MITIKO; SANTOS, JOSE O.; RIBEIRO, ANDREZA P.; SALDIVA, PAULO H.N.
