Background: A new management model for construction and demolition waste (CDW) was proposed for the city of Rio de Janeiro, hence waste the city planning area estimated generation; the results were compared with the data published by COMLURB and SNIS through the statistics tests was proved that CDW had been dispersed, which support the hypothesis that the current model cause dispersion of the rubble. Aim: This study proposes a new management model for CDW to the city, according to regions where occur the higher production of rubble. Methods: The estimation of rubble was obtained through the issued licenses from 2006 to 2020 published by SMPU. The quantification of rubble in the city was carried out by adopting the generation indicator from licensed construction activities. The amount of CDW published by COMLURB and SNIS was compared through statistics tests ANOVA and T-Test, the second period from 2006 to 2020 and 2011 to 2020. To measure the area to implant a CDW recycling plant, criteria from production capacity were used. Results: ANOVA test to data from 2006 to 2020 and 2011 to 2020, according to a confidence interval of 95%, found the P value 0.589 and 0.022, respectively, it was verified that the significant difference is between data from COMLURB and Estimated. The T-test was applied from the same period in data from SNIS and estimated the P values 0.399 and 0.014. Discussion: The data from Estimating between 2006 and 2020 showed the best representation. The Área de Planejamento – AP (Planning Area) 4 was where 50.70% of the total rubble, after the AP 3 with 17.66%, the AP 5 was estimated at 16.59%, last of all, AP 2 and AP 1 were calculated the generation of 8.28% and 6.77%, respectively. Therefore, sizing the CDW recycling producing 361,99.00 tons per year demands an area of 32,397.50 m². Conclusions: It was concluded that the receipt of CDW in transfer stations managed by COMLURB is not allowed; therefore, the need to create a construction waste recycling plant was presented, to this end, it is necessary to have an available area of approximately 32,397.50 m².

During the construction of concrete structures of small cross-sections, the release of heat during cementhardening has no harmful effects. With the increasing temperature of the hardening cement mass, the rate ofcement hydration increases. This increases the rate of release of its heat of hydration of cement. Theconsequence of the accelerated process of hydration of the binder is a more intensive increase in the strengthof cement stone than in the case of hardening under normal conditions. This fact is widely used in practice forthe intensification of the hardening of concrete. When structures with small cross-sections are being built, theheat released during hardening is relatively quickly transferred to the surrounding space and does not cause asignificant increase in temperature. In structures made of massive concrete (with a large cross-section), thisheat is stored in the interior of the array for a long time, which causes a rather large rise in temperature and itsslow drop. This is due to the fact that heat transfer to the external environment is hampered here by theconsiderable thickness of the massif and the rapid rate of concreting, mechanized laying of large masses ofconcrete. As a result, a temperature difference is created between the internal and external parts of thestructure and harmful internal stresses arise that can cause cracking in the hardened concrete. This leads to aviolation of its solidity. The faster cement hydrates, the sooner and more heat is released. The types of cementswith a high content of tricalcium silicate and aluminate emit more heat and rather than types of cement with ahigh content of dicalcium silicate and tetra-calcium aluminoferrite. However, the latter has a lower strength. Theincrease in strength resulting from the hydration process is inevitably associated with the release of heat into theenvironment. C

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has been observed as an alternative measure to mitigate emissions from greenhouse gases. CCS systems separate CO₂ during the process of converting fuel and transport to the facilities where they are stored, e.g., under geological formation conditions. Capture and sequestration technologies are now widely used in different industries. CO₂ capture is currently a costly and energy-consumingtechnology. The costs obviously depend on the size of the plant and the type of fuel used. Generally, capture systems are categorized into three categories: pre-combustion, post-combustion, and oxy-fuel combustion. The saline aquifer, depleted oil, and gas fields are large-capacity storage sinks. The coalbeds also provide as a substitute to geological storage. One of the main advantages of coal storage is renewable methane fuel and coaldesulfurization. The studied coal reserves are located in Candiota, State of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. These are the largest coal deposits in the country, with a reserve of 1 billion tons. This work will represent a study on CO₂ storage in Candiota coalbed system. The use of a synthetic CO2 cylinder with a flow of 0.2 L/min varies the time of contact with the coalbed. The results from the volatile matter increase by 11%. The results of the ultimate analysis exhibited an 8% increase for carbon and oxygen after 60 minutes of CO₂ flow in the coalbed. On the other hand, there was a reduction of 32% for sulfur. The resultant phenomena occur due to the adsorption capacity of CO₂, where the compounds are released from the pores of coal.
