Evaluation of the efficiency of the biorector with ceramic filter in the reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2)
type: item
description: The purpose of the research was to examine the efficiency of filter ceramics, sponges, and straws in a laboratory-scale bioreactor in reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations. Research and development of conventional technologies are increasingly studying alternative biological treatments for polluted gas streams, transforming today into a promising technology to prevent air pollution. Biological gas systems are being developed for the elimination of odors produced in composting plants and for the treatment of wastewater. However, in recent decades the use of biological techniques for the removal of polluting gases is growing thanks to its diversity and effectiveness in managing various pollutants. An initial and final analysis of the fermented broth was carried out taking into account the physicochemical parameters (pH, OD, Turbidity, BOD, STS) and the microbiological parameters (Numbering of viable aerobic microorganisms, Salmonella investigation, Numbering of total coliforms, Numbering of coliforms thermo tolerant, Numbering of Staphylococcus aureus, investigation of Vibrio cholerae, Numbering of molds and yeasts). The efficiency of the biological system was 100% to purify a gas stream and an efficiency of 91% to purify a gas stream from the fermented broth.

The diversity of the edaphic macrofauna in the Germplasm Bank at the Universidad Nacional Agraria de la Selva
type: item
description: The objective of the present work was to determine the alpha and beta diversity of the edaphic macrofauna for two systems of handling cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) and the forest tree, tornillo, (Cedrelinga cateniformis Ducke) which were found in the germplasm bank at the Universidad Nacional Agraria de la Selva in Tingo María, Perú, during 2022. For the sampling of the macrofauna in the soil, ten monoliths for each system were considered, and the methodology from the Agricultura Tropical Instituto de Biología y Fertilidad de Suelos Tropicales Grupos de América Latina’s international center was applied (Fátima et al., 2012). For the results, it was observed that the cacao farm system had greater specific richness (8.6), species diversity (0.8 Simpson index and 1.85 Shannon index) and equitability (0.89) than the tornillo system. Nonetheless, with this system there was a greater abundance of specimens and of family types (twenty-six families and 696 specimens). On the other hand, the similarity between the two systems went from 40.63% to 57.78% (according to Jaccard and Sorensen, respectively).

Participatory institutional policy in environmental impact studies (EsIA): Analysis of the Peruvian legal framework
type: item
description: The use of natural resources does not depend only on geological conditions and their economic potential, but also on political conditions and, currently, on citizen participation. Environmental Impact Studies (EIS) are instruments that take on this interdisciplinary challenge. To understand them, it is necessary to review their institutional framework, their historical evolution and their theoretical foundations. As well as the scope of its implementation and its limitations in reality. Our study has no precedents, being exploratory. At a methodological level, documentary, legal and academic sources have been reviewed. Afterwards, mixed methodologies have been carried out. First, semi-open interviews were conducted with socio-environmental specialists and concluded with a focus group. An opinion survey was then applied to reinforce and / or corroborate the information obtained. The objective was to know the advantages and disadvantages of environmental institutions, specifically around EsIA. The results obtained correspond to some critical proposals from the academy, excessive formalism, low operational capacity and little efficiency, incipient institutional framework and great potential to achieve environmental governance. Revealing the need to strengthen the environmental institutions of the EIS and update them in accordance with new global trends, such as digital transformation and agile methodologies.

Morphological functional traits of forest species in highland hill forests
type: item
description: The research aimed to identify the functional characteristics of forest species in low and high hillside forests of Tingo María – Huánuco, classifying them according to their adaptive and conservative strategies. To achieve this goal, 23.02 hectares were assessed, using 28 samples of 0.05 hectares each. The methodological approach adopted was hypothetical-deductive, non-experimental, cross-sectional, and correlational. Measurements of diameter at breast height (DBH) were taken for trees with DBH ≥ 10 cm, categorized by adaptive and conservative strategies, and crown indices and shapes were determined. The results revealed that DBH varies between 10-20 cm in both low and high hillsides. The majority of tree heights were found in the middle tree stratum (5-24.9 m). In low hillsides, the adaptive strategy prevailed (61.71%), while in high hillsides, the conservative strategy dominated (59.01%). There were inverse and low-magnitude correlations in high hillsides. The maximum height is concentrated in the middle stratum, reaching 85.76% in high hillsides. It is concluded that the high hillside forest exhibited superior functional characteristics.

Bioremediation with African snails (Achatina fullica) in soils contaminated by hydrocarbons
type: item
description: Bioremediation is a process that uses microorganisms, plants or other biological agents to decontaminate contaminated soil and water. In the case of African snails, it has been studied that they have pseudomonas in their digestive tract, which is an excellent hydrocarbon degrader. Seeing the problem of the oil spill and its negative impact on the environment that affects both the biotic and abiotic aspects; Seeing the abundance of African snails and their excessive proliferation, an alternative of bioremediation is proposed. The study was carried out in the university city of the Universidad Nacional Agraria de la Selva and with the climate of the place. Snails (Achatina fullica) have the ability to metabolize and degrade certain chemical compounds present in oil and other pollutants, converting them into compounds that are less toxic to the environment.

Removal of Zinc (Zn) and Lead (Pb) in aqueous solution using the activated carbon adsorption column system
type: item
description: Water is one of the resources of great importance for human life and the development of multiple human activities makes it even more so, however, but as we see the water suffers various alterations. Water pollution in Peru is caused by mining activities, factories, domestic, etc., being this a problem of great relevance that requires much attention. An alternative solution is the adsorption of heavy metals with the use of activated carbons; adsorption is a very low cost technology and is eco-friendly with the environment, there are several ways to obtain activated carbons, one of them is from organic material with a high percentage of carbon and its activation is given in different ways, in the chemical case it can be through phosphoric acid (H3PO4), sodium hydroxide (KOH) or zinc chloride (ZnCl2) and in a physical way there are the water method (H2O(v)), carbon dioxide (CO2) or oxygen (O2), whichever method you choose you will have porous activated carbon that have various applications, among these is the ability to absorb heavy metals. The present investigation was carried out in the water quality laboratory of the Universidad Nacional Agraria de la Selva, whose general objective is to determine the efficiency of the removal of heavy metals in Zinc (Zn) and/or Lead (Pb) in an aqueous solution through the system of adsorption columns with activated carbon, where we worked with a flow rate of 12.5 mL/s, with a height of 60 cm, cross-sectional area of 86.59 cm2. Therefore, 10.478 mL of 68.5% HNO3 is needed to prepare 1 liter of 1% nitric acid solution. It is concluded that the efficiency of the system increases when the adsorbent has more contact with the wastewater, in a time of 100 minutes the efficiency is 51.5% and 58% in the removal of Pb and Zn respectively.

Correlation of the indices: water quality and aquatic macroinvertebrates in the Negro River - Aguaytia
type: item
description: The research to characterize the quality of the water from the Negro River in Aguaytia, Peru, through the use of aquatic macroinvertebrates took place in September, November, and January. Eight sampling points were identified within two specific zones (with anthropic alteration and without anthropic alteration). Later, samples of the water were obtained in order to determine the physicochemical parameters, thus determining the quality of the water through use of the WQINSF index. The samples of aquatic macroinvertebrates were collected by using a surber net and the manual technique was used for the determination of the Shannon - Weaver (H´) index and the (BMWP)/ Col index. From the evaluation of the WQINSF index it was determined that the quality of the area without anthropic alteration was “GOOD,” while the quality of the area with anthropic alteration was “REGULAR.” Eight hundred and forty-two organisms were found, which were distributed into four classes, nine orders, and twelve families of macroinvertebrates. According to the Shannon index, a greater diversity of species exists in the area without anthropic alteration, and with the (BMWP)/Col index it was determined that in the area without anthropic alteration a water quality of “ACCEPTABLE” was obtained, while the area with anthropic alteration had a quality of “DOUBTFUL and CRITICAL.” Moreover, it was determined that the correlation between the WQINSF and BMWP indices during the three phases of sampling presented a positive and high correlation.
