Um programa de controle da poluição do ar tem como objetivo garantir que os poluentes atmosféricos sejam mantidos em concentrações tais que não afetem a saúde humana e não causem danos à flora, à fauna e aos materiais. O controle nas fontes visa a reduzir a concentração dos poluentes antes do seu lançamento na atmosfera. Com relação aos equipamentos e métodos de controle das emissões atmosféricas em atividades industriais, considere as afirmativas a seguir.
I - Os incineradores catalíticos são recomendados para a remoção de material particulado em grandes concentrações, enquanto que, em baixas concentrações, recomendam-se os incineradores com chama direta.
II - O separador ciclônico tem por base a ação da força centrífuga sobre as partículas carregadas pelo fluxo de gás, empurrando-as na direção das paredes, tendo, por isso, melhor eficiência para partículas pequenas, menores que 5 micrômetros.
III - O controle da emissão de gases e vapores envolve operações unitárias, como a absorção física e a condensação, podendo fazer uso de equipamentos como os condensadores e os absorvedores.
IV - O controle da emissão de material particulado pode ser feito usando-se equipamentos como os precipitadores eletrostáticos e os lavadores com atomização pelo gás.
Estão corretas APENAS as afirmativas

Q180208
Engenharia Ambiental e Sanitária
O processo da dispersão de poluentes na atmosfera depende principalmente do relevo da região, das condições meteorológicas e das características das fontes emissoras. O comportamento final de uma pluma de poluentes que sai de uma chaminé tem dois componentes principais: a ascensão da pluma e a difusão e o transporte da pluma. Ao ser emitida, a pluma tem tendência ascensional controlada por parâmetros do próprio efluente, por dimensões da chaminé e pela influência dos parâmetros meteorológicos no instante da emissão. Na sequência, ela adquire um movimento transversal, acompanhado de difusão em torno de sua linha de centro, que caracteriza o componente de difusão e transporte. Sobre as características de modelos típicos de plumas de poluentes, considere as afirmações a seguir.
I - Looping (serpenteante) é um modelo característico de condições instáveis que ocorre quando existe aquecimento solar intenso com céu limpo, em que grandes turbulências térmicas levam a uma rápida dispersão.
II - Coning (cônico) é um modelo característico de atmosfera neutra, causado por ventos moderados, direção estacionária e ausência de aquecimento solar, em que o baixo nível de turbulência faz a pluma atingir o solo a uma grande distância da fonte.
III - Fumigation (fumegante) é um modelo característico da ocorrência de uma inversão térmica abaixo da pluma, nor- malmente ao pôr do sol, podendo ser transitório ou durar várias horas, sendo que a dispersão vertical ocorre mais intensamente na camada superior da pluma do que na inferior.
Está correto APENAS o que se afirma em

Model copes with chaos to deliver relief
Computer program helps responders transport
supplies in tough conditions
By Rachel Ehrenberg Science News, Web edition: Monday, February 21st, 2011
WASHINGTON — Getting blood or other perishable supplies to an area that’s been struck by an earthquake or hurricane isn’t as simple as asking what brown can do for you. But a new model quickly determines the best routes and means for delivering humanitarian aid, even in situations where bridges are out or airport tarmacs are clogged with planes.
The research, presented February 18 at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, could help get supplies to areas which have experienced natural disasters or help prepare for efficient distribution of vaccines when the flu hits.
Efficient supply chains have long been a goal of manufacturers, but transport in fragile networks — where supply, demand and delivery routes may be in extremely rapid flux — requires a different approach, said Anna Nagurney of the University of Massachusetts Amherst, who presented the new work. Rather than considering the shortest path from one place to another to maximize profit, her system aims for the cleanest path at minimum cost, while capturing factors such as the perishability of the product and the uncertainty of supply routes. ‘You don’t know where demand is, so it’s tricky,’ said Nagurney. ‘It’s a multicriteria decision-making problem.’
By calculating the total cost associated with each link in a network, accounting for congestion and incorporating penalties for time and products that are lost, the computer model calculates the best supply chain in situations where standard routes may be disrupted.
‘Mathematical tools are essential to develop formal means to predict, and to respond to, such critical perturbations,’ said Iain Couzin of Princeton University, who uses similar computational tools to study collective animal behavior. ‘This is particularly important where response must be rapid and effective, such as during disaster scenarios … or during epidemics or breaches of national security.
’ The work can be applied to immediate, pressing situations, such as getting blood, food or medication to a disaster site, or to longer-term problems such as determining the best locations for manufacturing flu vaccines. . Retrieved April 7th, 2011.

The research, presented February 18 at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, could help get supplies to areas which have experienced natural disasters or help prepare for efficient distribution of vaccines when the flu hits.
Efficient supply chains have long been a goal of manufacturers, but transport in fragile networks — where supply, demand and delivery routes may be in extremely rapid flux — requires a different approach, said Anna Nagurney of the University of Massachusetts Amherst, who presented the new work. Rather than considering the shortest path from one place to another to maximize profit, her system aims for the cleanest path at minimum cost, while capturing factors such as the perishability of the product and the uncertainty of supply routes. ‘You don’t know where demand is, so it’s tricky,’ said Nagurney. ‘It’s a multicriteria decision-making problem.’
By calculating the total cost associated with each link in a network, accounting for congestion and incorporating penalties for time and products that are lost, the computer model calculates the best supply chain in situations where standard routes may be disrupted.
‘Mathematical tools are essential to develop formal means to predict, and to respond to, such critical perturbations,’ said Iain Couzin of Princeton University, who uses similar computational tools to study collective animal behavior. ‘This is particularly important where response must be rapid and effective, such as during disaster scenarios … or during epidemics or breaches of national security.

WASHINGTON — Getting blood or other perishable supplies to an area that’s been struck by an earthquake or hurricane isn’t as simple as asking what brown can do for you. But a new model quickly determines the best routes and means for delivering humanitarian aid, even in situations where bridges are out or airport tarmacs are clogged with planes.
