    Technological advances have promoted improvements in several science fields, especially related to environmental and analytical areas with the improvement of detection and development of environmentally friendly extraction techniques. This study applied Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and Safe method (QuEChERS) for soil extraction and assessed its performance through a validation study using samples from the soil of a contaminated area in Caieiras, SP, Brazil. Nine organochlorine pesticides, including the isomers alpha, beta, gamma and delta- hexachlorocyclohexane; cis- and trans-heptachlor epoxide; cis- and trans-chlordane and heptachlor were analyzed by gas chromatography coupled to electron capture detector. The method was validated according to ISO 5725-4 (2020), EURACHEM (2014) and DOQ-CGCRE-008 (2016). The limits of detection and quantification of the method for the nine organochlorines were α-HCH (1.2 and 12.6 µg kg−1), β-HCH (1.7 and 12.0 µg kg−1), γ-HCH (1.5 and 11.6 µg kg−1), δ-HCH (0.8 and 11.6 µg kg−1), heptachlor (1.0 and 10.8 µg kg−1), cis-heptachlor epoxide (0.9 and 11.5 µg kg−1), trans-heptachlor epoxide (0.9 and 11.5 µg kg−1), cis-chlordane (0.4 and 7.9 µg kg−1) and trans-chlordane (0.5 and 10.9 µg kg−1), respectively, and all of them were within the maximum limits recommended by the EPA for the compounds α-HCH (86.0 and 360.0 µg kg−1), β-HCH (300.0 and 1.3 × 103 µg kg−1), γ-HCH (570.0 and 2.5 × 103 µg kg−1), δ-HCH (not defined), heptachlor (130.0 and 630.0 µg kg−1), cis-/trans-heptachlor epoxide (7.0 and 330.0 µg kg−1), cis-/trans-chlordane (1.77 × 103 and 7.7 × 103 µg kg−1) in residential and industrial soil, respectively. Recovery results were between 65% and 105% for almost all compounds, which is an optimum result for multi-residue analytical methods, considering the complexity of the matrix used in the study. Caieiras presented contamination levels of α-HCH in the range of 2.0 to 66.0 µg g−1, which was higher than the limits established by EPA, corresponding to 0.077 µg g−1 for residential soil and 0.27 µg g−1 for industrial soil. According to the validation study, the analytical method proposed was reliable for organochlorine quantification, and the QuEChERS was considered efficient for organochlorine extraction from soil.

    Thorium and lithium in Brazil
    2019 - OLIVEIRA, GLAUCIA A.C. de; LAINETTI, PAULO E.O.; BUSTILLOS, JOSE O.W.V.; PIRANI, DEBORA A.; BERGAMASCHI, VANDERLEI S.; FERREIRA, JOAO C.; SENEDA, JOSE A.
    Brazil has one of the largest reserves of thorium in the world, including rare earth minerals. It has developed a great program in the field of nuclear technology for decades, including facilities to produced oxides to microspheres and thorium nitrates. Nowadays, with the current climate change, it is necessary to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, one of this way is exploring the advent of IV Generation reactors, molten salt reactors, that using Thorium and Lithium. Thorium's technology is promising and has been awaiting the return of one nuclear policy that incorporates its relevance to the necessary levels, since countries like the BRICS (without Brazil) have been doing so for years. Brazil has also been developing studies on the purification of lithium, and this one associated to thorium, are the raw material of the molten salt reactors. This paper presents a summary of the thorium and lithium technology that the country already has, and its perspectives to the future.
