Resumen: El presente artículo describe la aplicación de herramientas de software al estudio de degradación/biodegradación de polímeros commodity polipropileno (PP) en el relleno sanitario de São Giacomo de Caxias do Sul, RS. Se hace inicialmente una descripción del relleno sanitario, luego se describen las variables fisicoquímicas que intervienen en el proceso, se organizan las matrices de datos y se aplica el algoritmo PCA para interpretar las variables correlacionadas con la degradación y la actividad biológica. En el análisis de los datos multivariados se usaron las herramientas Matlab, InfoStat, con el fin de establecer los parámetros fisicoquímicos involucrados en la degradación/biodegradación, y determinar los componentes correlacionados con el fin de poder predecir el comportamiento de los parámetros y la degradación del polímero en el relleno sanitario. El análisis de componentes principales (PCA) permitió la reducción de 12 variables del 2 componentes principales que muestram a correlación de las variables. Los parámetros importantes son: relación DBO/DQO que miden la biodegradabilidad y nitrógeno amoniacal un indicativo de actividad biológica. Los resultados del análisis PCA describen la estructura y las interrelaciones de variables originales en el fenómeno de biodegradación de la materia orgánica a través del análisis e interpretación de los componentes principales. Palabras-clave: Relleno sanitario, análisis PCA, degradación, componentes principales, polipropileno. Multivariate Analysis of Physicochemical Parameters of the Landfill São Giácomo in Caxias do Sul, RS in the Degradation of PolypropyleneAbstract: This article describes the application of software tools to investigate the degradation /biodegradation of the commodity polymer polypropylene (PP) in the sanitary filling of Sao Giacomo in Caxias Do Sul, RS. A description is given of the sanitary filling, in addition to the physicochemical variables that are relevant for the process. The data are organized in matrices and a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) algorithm is applied to interpret the variables correlated with the degradation and biological activity. For analyzing the data, use was made of the tools Matlab and InfoStat, with the purpose of establishing the physicochemical parameters involved in the degradation/biodegradation, and for determining the correlated components in order to predict the behavior of the parameters and the polymer degradation in the sanitary filling. The PCA analysis allowed one to describe the structure and interrelations of the original variables for the biodegradation of organic matter. The important parameters were found to be DQO and DBO which measure biodegradability and ammoniac nitrogen, an indicative of biological activity.
