Biosolidis a material rich in organic matter and other nutrients of agronomic importance such as nitrogen and phosphorus. Its end is almost always in landfills. Therefore, its transformation into biochar by the pyrolysis process would be a way to associate its inherent benefits to biochar, enabling a more appropriate final destination. Given this work the objective was to produce biochar in order to evaluate the viability of use in agriculture. The biochar was produced on a laboratory scale at different temperatures and therefore the characterization of the final product was performed. As a result, the material has proven to be rich in organic matter as temperature increases, thinning the material and increasing the specific surface making the alkaline pH serving as carbon sequestration. Thus, with the constant concern of sewage sludge 47Colloquium Exactarum, v. 11, n4, Out-Dez. 2019, p.46 –61. DOI: 10.5747/ce.2019.v11.n4.e296production, biochar proved to be more efficient than pure sewage sludge for agricultural application.

Currently, the final destination of organic residues and aquatic macrophytes does not occur effectively, directly interfering with the environment and causing environmental problems. Therefore, the work aimed to reuse the organic waste from UNOESTE Campus 2, which comes from the university restaurant, urban cleaning and dairy cattle manure, as well as the aquatic macrophytes of the Cica dam in the municipality of President Prudent, using the vermicomposting technique in different treatments, analyzing the physical and chemical properties of the final compound and suggesting a better destination for such residues. Four treatments were carried out, with three repetitions each, namely: T1 (Dung, Organic waste), T2 (Aquatic Macrophyte, Dung, Organic waste), T3 (Urban cleaning waste, Dung, Organic waste) and T4 (Macrophyte, Waste urban cleaning, manure, organic waste).After collecting the compost, laboratory analyzes were carried out, which showed a significant increase in humidity when compared to the parametersof Normative Instruction SDA No. 25 of 2009. In the treatments carried out, T4 was highlighted by the breeding of earthworms. Therefore, through the execution of this work it was possible to confirm that the application of the vermicomposting technique is feasible for the treatment of organic waste.

The environmental diagnosis of the tributaries of the Lajeado Stream tributaries in Pirapozinho / SP is a study that will evaluate the characteristics of the natural environment, as well as the interactions and interferences caused by anthropogenic activities in the environment and the impacts resulting from these actions. This characterization will be done through visual on-site surveys, laboratory analysis and literature searches that allow a better understanding of the behavior of a watershed in face of external factors. In this sense, we evaluate procedures such as soil use and occupation, water quality, environmental valuation, development of vegetative areas, soil qualification, among other aspects. Thus, the interpretation of the quality of the natural resources raised and their interference will support an assessment of which identified impacts are likely to be mitigated in order to employ the necessary recovery and improvement technologies in the area.

Sewage sludge refers to a nutrient-rich by-product and organic matter from treatment plants and has become a challenge for many research segments to find a rational and sustainable destination for this material. In this context, the carbonization of biomass (by the pyrolysis process) results in biochar, characterized by a very stable material with specific physical and chemical properties and can represent a very important tool for this challenge. Thus, the objective of the present work was to transform, bypyrolysis process, small portions of the biosolid generated in Rancharia ETE into biochar. In addition, both the biosolid and the generated bicarbons were subjected to physical, chemical and structural analyzes in order to proceed with their respective characterization. From the analysis, it was found that the treatment submitted to temperature of 550°C as the best option for possible applications.Keywords:biosolid; pyrolysis; biochar.
