Resumo: | The silver element (Ag) is present in the effluent of radiography equipment and because it is a bioaccumulating chemical species, it requires the proper management of its disposal, since if it is improperly directed to the water receiving body, it can compromise the biological chain. This study aimed to quantify the Ag content in the effluent of a radiography equipment, at three points of disposal, as well as to evaluate the effluent management process in the light of the relevant legislation. For this purpose, samples were collected at three points of disposal over three days after their generation, and the same ones were analyzed by Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-EAP). The results revealed an average Ag content of 5.87 mg/L; 2,795.65 mg/L and 1,525.31 mg/L, for the developer, fixer and developer of the developer and fixer in water, respectively. The observed values are much higher than the maximum limit established by the legislation. It was also verified that the effluent management in the evaluated hospital unit is precarious, about the conditioning, storage and final destination of group B waste, since the establishment does not comply with all the premises listed by RDC/ANVISA number 306/2004. |

Este estudio tuvo como objetivo cuantificar el contenido de Ag en el efluente de un equipo de radiografía, en tres puntos de eliminación, así como evaluar el proceso de gestión de efluentes a la luz de la legislación pertinente. Para este propósito, se recolectaron muestras en tres puntos de eliminación durante tres días después de su generación, y las mismas se analizaron por espectrometría de emisión atómica de plasma (ICP-EAP). Los resultados revelaron un contenido promedio de Ag de 5.87 mg/L; 2,795.65 mg/L y 1,525.31 mg/L, para el desarrollador, fijador y desarrollador y fijador en agua, respectivamente. Los valores observados son mucho más altos que el límite máximo establecido por la legislación. También se verificó que el manejo de los efluentes en la unidad hospitalaria evaluada es precario, con respecto al acondicionamiento, almacenamiento y destino final de los desechos del grupo B, ya que el establecimiento no cumple con todos los locales enumerados por RDC/ANVISA nº 306/2004.O elemento prata (Ag) está presente no efluente dos equipamentos de radiografia e por se tratar de uma espécie química bioacumuladora requer a devida gestão de seu descarte, uma vez que se direcionado inadequadamente para o corpo receptor hídrico poderá comprometer a cadeia biológica. Este estudo teve por objetivo quantificar o teor de Ag no efluente de um equipamento de radiografia, em três pontos de descarte, bem como avaliar o processo de gestão do efluente à luz da legislação pertinente. Para tanto foram coletadas amostras em três pontos de descarte ao longo de três dias subsequentes ao da sua geração, e as mesmas analisadas por Espectrometria de Emissão Atômica por Plasma (ICP-EAP). Os resultados revelaram um teor médio de Ag de 5,87 mg/L; 2.795,65 mg/L e 1.525,31 mg/L, para o revelador, fixador e composição do revelador e fixador em água, respectivamente. Os valores observados são muito superiores ao limite máximo estabelecido pela legislação. Foi verificado ainda que na unidade hospitalar avaliada a gestão dos efluentes ocorre de maneira precária, no que diz respeito ao acondicionamento, armazenamento e destinação final dos resíduos do grupo B, uma vez que o estabelecimento não cumpre com todas as premissas elencadas pela RDC/ANVISA nº 306/2004.Research, Society and Development2020-05-05info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/372310.33448/rsd-v9i7.3723Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 No. 7; e213973723Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 Núm. 7; e213973723Research, Society and Development; v. 9 n. 7; e2139737232525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/3723/3369Copyright (c) 2020 Romina Mara Batista, Flávio José de Assis Barony, Alda Ernestina dos Santos, Karina Bicalho Ervilha do Nascimento Campos, José Márcio Quintão Moreira, Luiz Fernando da Rocha Penna, Isabela Araújo Fioravanteinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBatista, Romina MaraBarony, Flávio José de AssisSantos, Alda Ernestina dosCampos, Karina Bicalho Ervilha do NascimentoMoreira, José Márcio QuintãoPenna, Luiz Fernando da RochaFioravante, Isabela Araújo2020-08-20T18:05:03Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/3723Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:27:49.617370Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
