Capítulo IPEN-doc 28733 Caracterização química elementar de matrizes biológicas empregando a técnica de INA2022 - LEONARDO, LUCIO; DAMATTO, SANDRA R.A INAA foi utilizada no estudo do uso de líquens Canoparmelia texana como bioindicador ambiental de radionuclídeos e metais em região impactada por NORM, na proposta de uso da tartaruga de água doce Trachemis scripta elegans como bioindicadora ambiental em áreas urbanas de São Paulo e com o objetivo de caracterização química elementar dos produtos derivados da Nicotiana tabacum L. Foram determinados nas irradiações realizadas no reator IEA-R1 do IPEN, os elementos As, Ba, Br, Ca, Ce, Co, Cr, Cs, Eu, Fe, Hf, K, La, Lu, Na, Nd, Rb, Sb, Sc, Se, Sm, Ta, Tb, Th, U, Yb e Zn usando os materiais de referência lichen, folhas de pêssego, folhas de tomate, peixe e mexilhão. Os resultados indicaram a possibilidade do uso da espécie de liquens como bioindicador de radioatividade e metais, pois as concentrações máximas obtidas de 53 ± 5 mg kg-1, 79 ± 8 mg kg-1, 135 mg kg-1 para os elementos Hf, Ta e ΣETR, foram maiores que as concentrações 1,51 ± 0,05 mg kg-1, 1,70 ± 0,22 mg kg-1 e 8,5 mg kg-1 da amostra considerada background, respectivamente, indicando o enriquecimento dos elementos citados. Nas amostras da tartaruga de água doce, os referidos elementos químicos foram determinados no casco, tecido epidérmico córneo, músculo, rim, coração e pulmões e as maiores concentrações foram para os elementos Ca, K e Na. Nas amostras de escudo epidérmico e casco foi observada a presença de Zn que pode ser uma característica da espécie ou uma contribuição do ambiente, sendo necessário mais amostras para a verificação da possibilidade de uso da espécie como bioindicador. Nos produtos derivados da Nicotiana tabacum L. comercializados em algumas regiões do Brasil, como cigarros, charutos, fumo de corda e rapé, os elementos que apresentaram maiores concentrações foram Ba, Br, Ca, Ce, K, e Zn.Artigo IPEN-doc 27892 Natural radionuclides in soil profiles and sediment cores from Jundiaí reservoir, state of São Paulo2021 - GONÇALVES, P.N.; DAMATTO, S.R.; LEONARDO, L.; SOUZA, J.M.The activity concentration of natural radionuclides in soils and sediments is dependent on many factors, such as the rock parental material, pedogenic and weathering processes, physical and chemical properties of the environment, anthropogenic sources, among other aspects. There are few studies about the levels of natural radionuclides in reservoirs in both, international and national, literature. The objective of this paper was to evaluate the activity concentrations of 238U and 232Th by Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis and 226Ra, 210Pb, 228Ra, 228Th and 40K by gamma spectrometry in two soil profiles and three sediment cores collected in the catchment area of Jundiai reservoir, located in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. Principal component analysis was applied to verify the correlation of the activity concentrations of the natural radionuclides with physical and chemical properties of soil and sediment samples. The mean activity concentrations of the radionuclides in the soil profiles 1 and 2 were, respectively: 238U – 37(1) and 32(1) Bq.kg-1; 232Th – 91(1) and 60(1) Bq.kg-1; 226Ra – 66(1) and 51(1) Bq.kg-1; 210Pb – 35(1) and 37(1) Bq.kg-1; 228Ra – 34(1) and 27(1) Bq.kg-1; 228Th – 78(1) and 58(1) Bq.kg-1; 40K – 96(2) and 171(7) Bq.kg-1. For the three sediment cores analyzed, the average activities concentrations of the radionuclides were, respectively: 238U – 64(0.5), 47(0.1) and 44(0.2) Bq.kg-1; 232Th – 122(2), 100(1) and 64(1) Bq.kg-1; 226Ra – 74(2), 71(1) and 45(1) Bq.kg-1; 210Pb – 70(3), 56(2) and 55(2) Bq.kg-1; 228Ra – 53(1), 41(1) and 33(1) Bq.kg-1; 228Th – 100(2), 92(1) and 63(2); 40K – 316(5), 237(1) and 136(2) Bq.kg-1.Artigo IPEN-doc 26177 Natural radionuclides in soil profiles and sediment cores from Jundiai reservoir, state of São Paulo2019 - GONÇALVES, PEDRO do N.; DAMATTO, SANDRA R.; LEONARDO, LUCIO; SOUZA, JOSEILTON M. deThe activity concentration of natural radionuclides in soils and sediments is dependent on many factors, such as the rock parental material, pedogenic and weathering processes, physical and chemical properties of the environment, anthropogenic sources, among other aspects. Naturally occurring radiation in the environment is mostly due to the decay of 238U and 232Th series; another important source of natural radiation is the radionuclide 40K. Reservoirs are artificial systems made in order to stock riverine and rainwater to supply water to the population. There are few studies about the levels of natural radionuclides in reservoirs in both, international and national, literature. The objective of this paper was to evaluate the activity concentration of 238U and 232Th by Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis and 226Ra, 210Pb, 228Ra, 228Th and 40K by gamma spectrometry in two soil profiles and three sediment cores collected in the catchment area of Jundiai reservoir, located in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. Principal component analysis was applied to verify the correlation of the activity concentrations of the natural radionuclides with physical and chemical properties of soil and sediment samples. In the soil profiles, the radionuclides that showed higher activity concentration when compared to the UNSCEAR values were 232Th in the both profiles and 238U only in one; for the sediment cores, the activity concentrations of 238U and 232Th were higher than the UNSCEAR values in all the samples analyzed and also for the radionuclide 226Ra in two sediment cores.Resumo IPEN-doc 21725 Preliminary results fo sup(238)U, sup(232)Th and trace elements determined in soil and sediment profiles collected in Ponte Nova Reservoir, São Paulo, Brazil2015 - DAMATTO, S.R.; LEONARDO, L.; MADUAR, M.F.; SILVA, A.R.; SOUZA, J.M.; MAZZILLI, B.P.Resumo IPEN-doc 21551 Radionuclides from U-238 and Th-232 series and K-40 determined in environmental samples collected in the catchment area of Ponte Nova reservoir, São Paulo, Brazil2015 - SILVA, ANDRE da; DAMATTO, SANDRA; LEONARDO, LUCIO; SOUZA, JOSEILTON; GONCALVES, PEDRO; MADUAR, MARCELO; MAZZILLI, BARBARAResumo IPEN-doc 17691 On the environmental impact of phosphate fertilizer industry inferred by lichens2011 - LEONARDO, L.; MAZZILLI, B.P.; DAMATTO, S.R.Resumo IPEN-doc 15731 Monitoring anthropogenic airbone natural radionuclides in the vicinty of TENORM industry using lichen as bio-indicator2010 - MAZZILLI, B.P.; LEONARDO, L.; DAMATTO, S.R.Resumo IPEN-doc 13516 Assessment of atmospheric pollution in the vicinity of a tin and lead industry using lichen Canoparmelia texana2008 - LEONARDO, LUCIO; DAMATTO, SANDRA R.; MAZZILLI, BARBARA P.; SAIKI, MITIKO; OLIVEIRA, SONIA M.B. deArtigo IPEN-doc 20047 Lichen specie Canoparmelia texana as bioindicator of environmental impact from the phosphate fertilizer industry of Sao Paulo, Brazil2014 - LEONARDO, L.; DAMATTO, S.R.; GIOS, B.R.; MAZZILLI, B.P.The Brazilian phosphate industry is the sixth worldwide producer of phosphate rock concentrate generating phosphoric acid, fertilizers, intermediates for fertilizers and other products. Two of the most important of these industries are both located in the city of Cubata˜o— Sa˜o Paulo, Brazil, and they are responsible for the production of P2O5, generating a residue known as phosphogypsum. The raw material, phosphate rock and products are commonly transported to the industrial complex by a railroad line and present in their composition natural radionuclides from the U and Th series and rare earth elements. Lichens have been used for monitoring atmospheric pollution and radiological contamination for a long time and have proven to be an important tool. This paper aims to highlight the use of the lichen specie Canoparmelia texana (family Parmeliacea) as a bioindicator of atmospheric pollution by the natural radionuclides from the U and Th series and RREs due to the operation of these industries and the storage of their residue in the open air. Samples of these lichen specie were collected in the vicinity of the industries and the railroad. The radionuclides 226Ra, 228Ra and 210Pb were measured by alpha and beta counting, after radiochemical separation, and 238U, 232Th as well as REEs were determined by instrumental neutron activation analysis. The results showed that the lichens present the same fingerprint as the phosphate rock and phosphogypsum, furthermore the cluster analysis of the results showed that the lichen samples collected near to the railroad line presented the highest values for all the elements studied.Artigo IPEN-doc 16620 Tritium concentration analysis of groundwater samples from the environmental monitoring program at IPEN, São Paulo, Brazil2005 - LEONARDO, L.; PECEQUILO, B.R.S.
