Hydrometeorological monitoring using wireless sensor networks
type: item
description: Urban floods are among the most frequent types of disasters on the planet. They are often pre-existing occurrences due to the region's physiographic characteristics, but they are exacerbated by the effects of urbanization, including waterproofing and modification of the hydrological cycle due to human activities. Approaches to addressing these events range from structural solutions, involving macro-drainage projects, to non-structural solutions, including land use regulations. In the context of Smart Cities, mitigation actions include the use of technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and computerized urban security management to improve the response to extreme hydrometeorological events. From this perspective, this work aims to propose sensor nodes and gateways for the creation of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) for hydrometeorological monitoring and flood forecasting. The work was based on a scientific review of the literature and technical manuals, including the selection of development boards, communication module, sensor modules, coding, and testing. The tests demonstrated that microcontroller systems can comprise a WSN, processing data collections every few seconds at low cost and with low power consumption. Furthermore, sensor nodes are scalable and versatile, incorporating a variety of sensors and communication protocols.

Treatment of industrial effluent by bench-scale microfiltration aiming at water reuse
type: item
description: Objective – To evaluate the bench-scale microfiltration process for the treatment of industrial effluent generated from the CIP (Clean in Place) system of a brewery, analyzing color, turbidity, and pH as quality parameters, and verifying the effect of centrifugation as a pretreatment step aiming at non-potable water reuse. Methodology – The study was carried out at a bench scale, employing centrifugation as a preliminary stage and microfiltration using glass fiber membranes with pore size < 1.0 µm. Color (Pt-Co), turbidity (NTU), and pH analyses were performed in triplicate, following AWWA (2012) standards. Five tests were conducted: three with raw effluent (50, 100, and 150 mL) and two with centrifuged effluent (50 mL with a new membrane and 50 mL with a reused membrane). Originality/Relevance – The study explores the combination of centrifugation and microfiltration for treating CIP effluent, a scarcely investigated approach in brewery wastewater management. It provides a low-cost and practical alternative for industrial water reuse, aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals. Results – Centrifugation promoted approximately 82% color and 95% turbidity removal, proving to be an effective pretreatment. Microfiltration applied directly to raw effluent showed early membrane fouling and removals below 30%. Conversely, microfiltration of the centrifuged effluent reduced color to 128 ± 2.5 Pt-Co and turbidity to 112 ± 2.0 NTU, achieving removals above 85%. Membrane reuse showed decreased color removal efficiency due to fouling accumulation. Theoretical/Methodological Contributions – This study enhances the understanding of membrane fouling during the treatment of alkaline effluents and provides a reproducible experimental model for comparative future studies. Social and Environmental Contributions – The research reinforces the feasibility of water reuse in non-potable brewery processes, contributing to water resource conservation and the reduction of industrial efflu…

What’s in the container?
type: item
description: Objective: The present study aimed to discuss the relevance of critical Environmental Education (EE) in addressing urban solid waste management issues, highlighting the limitations of reductionist and pragmatic approaches that still prevail in educational practices. Methodology: The work was developed within the scope of the extension project “Environmental Education as an Educational Process for Urban Solid Waste Management”, linked to the Federal University of Technology – Paraná (UTFPR), Dois Vizinhos Campus. The activity was carried out during the 2025 Environment Week in Francisco Beltrão (PR), through the event “What’s in the container?”, which consisted of the public opening of an organic waste container. The proposal aimed to reveal the local reality of waste collection, promote dialogue among different social actors, and raise community awareness about the consequences of improper waste disposal. Originality/Relevance: The study proposes a critical and participatory approach to EE, going beyond the merely instrumental nature of actions focused on recycling and waste collection. Based on authors such as Layrargues (2002) and Gonzaga (2016), the work highlights the need for Environmental Education that addresses political, social, and cultural dimensions, as guided by the National Environmental Education Policy (Law No. 9.795/99), the 1988 Federal Constitution, and the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC, 2017). Results: The waste analysis revealed that approximately half of the container’s contents consisted of recyclable materials mixed with organic waste, which made their reuse and/or recycling unfeasible. This result demonstrated deficiencies in the segregation process, a lack of public awareness, and non-compliance with the National Solid Waste Policy (PNRS) goals. The action, therefore, highlighted the gap between environmental legislation and the daily practice of waste management. Theoretical/Methodological Contributions: The project reaffirms the i…

The mischaracterization of heritage on Rua da Frente in Aracaju-SE
type: item
description: Objective – The present article aims to analyze the degradation of ‘Rua da Frente’, focusing on the former commercial building ‘A Fonseca’, a symbol of early 20th-century eclecticism in Aracaju, in order to contextualize the historical importance of the street and investigate its relationship with the principles of the UN 2030 Agenda. Methodology – Based on a qualitative approach, the study combines bibliographic research, documentary survey, photographic records, and on-site analysis, including participation in community events such as Jane’s Walk. Originality/Relevance – The study is part of a debate on the predominance of economic value over cultural value and highlights the importance of eclecticism in shaping Aracaju’s commercial architecture — topics that have been little explored in analyses of Sergipe’s heritage. Results – The results show that the absence of effective public policies, the lack of tax incentives, and the pressure of the real estate market have led to the abandonment and partial demolitions of the building, despite its recognized relevance in Aracaju’s Master Plan. Theoretical/Methodological Contributions – It is concluded that the predominance of economic value over historical value confirms the urban theories of Choay, Riegl, Lefebvre, and Milton Santos on the appropriation of space by capital and the consequent loss of the right to the city. Methodologically, the study stands out for integrating documentary research, comparative photographic analysis, and community participation, offering a replicable model for the assessment of historic buildings in similar urban contexts. Social and Environmental Contributions – Thus, the article highlights the urgency of integrated preservation policies and popular participation as instruments to reactivate collective memory and promote sustainable cultural tourism.

History of Urban Requalification in Shanghai Through Its Rivers
type: item
description: Objective – This study aims to historically analyze the urban landscape of Shanghai through its rivers, highlighting the urban requalification process promoted by federal and municipal measures. It seeks to understand how the city’s relationship with its waterways, once marked by degradation, was transformed into a model of revitalization and integration into the urban landscape. Methodology – The research was developed through bibliographic studies on China and, in particular, Shanghai, complemented by territorial and urban landscape analyses. The focus is on the rehabilitation processes of strategic water bodies, such as the Huangpu River and the Suzhou Creek, which have become structuring axes of urban renewal. Originality/relevance – The study is part of the international discussion on urban requalification and water valorization, bringing as a differential the analysis of the Chinese experience in addressing the lack of quality public spaces, especially in riverfront areas. Its academic relevance lies in highlighting the transition from a scenario of distancing and devaluation of rivers to a model of proximity, integration, and historical, cultural, and environmental valorization that redefines Shanghai’s contemporary urban landscape. Results – Shanghai’s recent history shows that the requalification of rivers and canals enabled the revitalization of previously degraded urban areas, consolidating high-quality public spaces. The Chinese experience demonstrates the importance of integrated management of urban waters and the articulation between federal and municipal policies in strengthening the landscape and social fabric. Theoretical/methodological contributions – The study offers a technical and methodological framework for understanding urban rehabilitation processes based on water bodies. The analysis of Shanghai’s practices provides a comparative basis that can be adapted to other localities, expanding the debate on eco-civilization, sustainable urbanism, a…

Research through the WEF Nexus approach and water security
type: item
description: Objective – Identify trends and gaps in water security using the Water-Energy-Food (WEF) Nexus approach in the Brazilian and international contexts. Methodology – Survey of publications (2020–2025) in the Scopus database and qualitative and quantitative analysis of articles using VOSviewer software, combining bibliometrics and systematic review. Originality/relevance – There is a lack of research linking water security to the WEF Nexus perspective, especially regarding water resource planning and urban planning. Results – Publications were obtained in the following countries: the US (55), China (46), India (20), and Brazil (18) lead the publications. In the national context, studies on climate change, institutional fragmentation, low social participation, and technological difficulties stand out. The most frequent research develops qualitative methods, hydrological modeling, and theoretical reviews. There was a lack of indicators integrating the theme, low interdisciplinarity, and insufficient institutionalization of the Nexus as a methodological approach. Theoretical/methodological contributions – Little use of the WEF Nexus in Brazil and extensive experience in the international context, in addition to the complexity of applying this approach. Social and environmental contributions – Evidence indicates impacts on food production, urban agriculture, stormwater management, and governance. Internationally, the WEF Nexus shows promise in addressing climate change and socio-environmental inequalities, with an emphasis on decentralized solutions and adaptive infrastructure. In Brazil, scientific production is in its infancy, and there are gaps in integrated public policies and the use of digital data, requiring strategies to be adapted to local realities

Green infrastructure as a Nature-based Solution for mitigating impacts on urban drainage in São Paulo
type: item
description: The disorganized growth of the city of São Paulo, with the occupation of floodplains, the canalization of rivers and streams and waterproofing, has caused several problems in the city, including floods and recurrent flooding during heavy rainfall events. As a way of solving the problem, the public authorities have come up with rainwater detention reservoirs, known as 'piscinões', which reduce the volume of water in the drainage network, but dispose of the rainwater and with it all the pollution that reaches it. Based on an exploratory literature review, this article sought to map the main studies carried out on green infrastructure as a nature-based solution for urban drainage in São Paulo and, with this, to verify its applicability in the search for solutions to adapt the city. The studies showed good results in the implementation of green infrastructure for urban drainage, but some of them found errors in design or execution. In addition, even though the government indicated in the revision of the Master Plan that the drainage system should prioritize nature-based solutions, the solution adopted for the city's flooding problems is the installation of “piscinões”.

Study for the Adaptation of a Rapid Assessment Protocol for Lentic Environments in Presidente Prudente (São Paulo/Brazil)
type: item
description: Amid the context of urban transformation that extends from the earliest settlements along the banks of rivers and streams to the present day, it is evident that in the process of urban planning and occupation, these water bodies were often perceived as barriers that limited and shaped the urban layout. The objective of this study was to develop a study for the adaptation of a rapid assessment protocol focused on lentic environments in Presidente Prudente, São Paulo. This study fills a theoretical gap by addressing the lack of specific adaptations for lentic environment assessment protocols. The research was conducted through literature reviews comparing the characteristics of lentic and lotic environments, and the results revealed that lentic environments exhibit several characteristics that differentiate them from lotic environments, highlighting the need for continuous adaptations in the assessment protocol. This analysis not only contributes to academic knowledge but also points to the need for more effective and sustainable management practices concerning these ecosystems.

Banguê Dam
type: item
description: The present study deals with the memories of the construction of the Banguê Dam as a determinant in the civilizing production of the history of Assaré, linked to the protagonism of the black population of the place. The research aims to study the use of African-based techniques and technologies in the formation of cities belonging to Cariri Ceará. The Banguê Dam, an artificial water reservoir built in the mid-19th century, using the work of enslaved labor, but which was recognized in the history of the place as being created by the colonizer. To carry out the research, the methodology of Afro-descendants was used, associated with oral history with the use of narrative interviews with residents who had knowledge about the formation of the Alto de Banguê neighborhood. Given the ideologies imposed by Eurocentrism in the framework of the origin of cities in the interior of Ceará, there is a lack of knowledge in identifying Afro-descendant belonging in the production of cities. In this way, our interest in presenting possibilities for developing geography teaching, using the spatialities of the place in the production of the territory linked to the local slave past, positive the belonging of the black population at the origin of the municipality.
