Abstract

Solid wastes from furniture industries require proper disposal and may have potential to be used in other production chains. The aim of the current study is to assess the use of medium density fiberboard (MDF) to produce bio-oil and carbon black with low emission of toxic elements. A full factorial design was used to assess 27 bio-oil preparation procedures based on the acid digestion of MDF shavings. The influence of three concentrated acid types (HNO 3 , H 2 SO 4 and HCl) at three different temperatures (25, 75 and 150 ° C) and digestion times (30, 60 and 90min) was assessed. The contents of Al, Ba, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni and Pb were determined through ICP OES.The Al and Ba contents oscillated between 442.2 ± 235.9 mg kg -1 and 17.9 ± 8.6 mg kg -1 , respectively. The Cd, Cr, Ni and Pb contents were below the detection limit set by the technique. The tests showed that the studied material has the potential to be used as bio-oil and carbon black with low emission of metallic elements; Thus, it was considered a potential alternative source of biomass-generated energy and, in parallel, it provides the furniture sector with an additional waste management option

Ethical Guidelines for Journal Publication

The Ciência e Natura journal is committed to ensuring ethics in publication and quality of articles. 

Conformance to standards of ethical behavior is therefore expected of all parties involved: Authors, Editors, Reviewers, and the Publisher.

In particular, 

Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Review Articles should also be objective, comprehensive, and accurate accounts of the state of the art. The Authors should ensure that their work is entirely original works, and if the work and/or words of others have been used, this has been appropriately acknowledged. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should not submit articles describing essentially the same research to more than one journal. The corresponding Author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all Co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.

Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An Editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the Author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.

Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that Authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected Reviewer who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the Editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
