publicado na web em 04/12/2017 This paper describes a route for recovering manganese and zinc from spent zinc-MnO 2 dry cells via acid leaching. Sulfuric, hydrofluoric and formic acids were used as leachants. Hydrogen peroxide was added as reductant, except for formic acid since it is itself a reductant. Experiments were run at 25-40 o C for 1-3 h. Under the best optimal conditions, over 95 wt.% of zinc and manganese were leached irrespective of the leachant. Leaching of contaminants was strongly dependent on the leachant due to the insolubility of salts or complexing reactions. Zn(II) was best extracted with D2EHPA diluted in n-heptane at pH > 1, particularly from the leachates of weak acids. Mn(II) was much more co-extracted from sulfuric leachates, but was easily scrubbed with dilute leachant (~2 mol L -1 ). Zn(II) striping was possible using 5 mol L -1 H 2 SO 4 . Manganese was isolated as MnO 2 carrying the leached contaminants. High-purity sodium salts of the anions of the leachants were recovered after slow evaporation of the final solution.

This paper describes a route for recovering manganese and zinc from spent zinc-MnO 2 dry cells via acid leaching using sulfuric or hydrochloric acids as leachants. Hydrogen peroxide was added as reductant. Experiments were run at 25-40 o C for 1-3 h. Under the best optimal conditions, over 97.5 wt.% of zinc and manganese were leached by both acids. Zn(II) was best extracted at high free acidity (≥ 1 mol L -1 ) with tributylphosphate (TBP) or trialkylphosphine oxides (Cyanex 923) diluted in n-heptane. Cyanex 923 was a better extractant than TBP, and the extraction was better performed in hydrochloric leachates. Mn(II) was more co-extracted from hydrochloric leachates and when Cyanex 923 was the extractant, but was easily scrubbed with dilute leachant (~1-2 mol L -1 ). Zn(II) striping was possible using 5 mol L -1 HCl or H 2 SO 4 . Manganese was precipitated as oxalate (MnC 2 O 4 .2H 2 O), free of leached contaminants. High-purity sodium salts of the anions of the leachants were recovered after slow evaporation of the final solution.

O contexto pandêmico expôs uma necessidade de professores dialogarem mais com as novas tecnologias devido ao ensino remoto. Isso evidenciou ainda mais a importância de uma formação continuada ou de uma formação inicial de professores que se aproprie das tecnologias para potencializar o seu fazer docente. A Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) ressalta o uso das tecnologias em sala de aula, por ser entendida como ferramenta fundamental para o mundo moderno, influenciando consideravelmente nas formas de trabalho, comunicação, relacionamento e aprendizagem. Em meio as Tecnologias Digitais de Informação e Comunicação (TDICs), as redes sociais podem surgir como um meio complementar para aproximar o cotidiano dos alunos aos conteúdos de química. O presente trabalho apresenta uma proposta de recursos adicionais de ensino de química em uma página na rede social Instagram, analisando as possibilidades do uso didático de memes da internet associado ao conteúdo de química nas publicações e do uso da ferramenta de “Teste” do Instagram Stories como ferramenta diagnostica adicional de avaliação.
