<p>This article discusses the concept of entropy in an alternative thermodynamic view, demonstrating dialectically that the reversibility illustrated in common laboratory practice is only a local technical effect resulting from anthropic processes that slow down the irreversible advance of the disorder. Then, negative entropy is only a fiction stemming from the imaginationist idealism. The Lagrangian formalism is applied from the introduction of the idea of temporal confinement of thermal energy states, with time being interpreted as the basis of an evolutionary variable. The acceleration of entropy is formally presented independently of statistical mechanics.</p><p><br /><strong>Key words</strong>: thermodynamics, entropy, entropy acceleration, irreversibility.</p><p>=================================================================</p><p>O presente artigo discute o conceito de entropia numa visão termodinâmica alternativa, demonstrando dialeticamente que a reversibilidade ilustrada na prática laboratorial comum é apenas um efeito técnico local decorrente de processos antrópicos que desaceleram o avanço irreversível da desordem.

<p>Present article proposes the application of the concept of entropy in the study of the environmental impacts generated by a city. It is taken a strictly thermodynamic approach of cities as heat sinks that generate entropy. The formalism of caloric field theory is adopted to establish the relationship between entropy caused by thermal exchanges and the physical environmental parameters considered. The notion of evolutional global time is introduced in order to treat entropy more objectively in the context of thermodynamics. A table with the rates of change of entropy in some cities is generated. <br /> <br /><strong>Key words</strong>: Entropy, thermodynamics, irreversible processes, caloric field theory.</p><p> ===========================================================================</p><p>O presente artigo propõe a aplicação do conceito de entropia no estudo dos impactos ambientais gerados por uma cidade.

O formalismo da teoria dos campos calóricos é adotado para estabelecer a relação entre a entropia produzida pelas trocas térmicas e os parâmetros físicos ambientais considerados. O conceito de tempo global evolutivo é introduzido por modo de tratar a entropia de maneira mais objetiva no contexto da termodinâmica. É gerada uma tabela com as taxas de variação da entropia em algumas cidades. </p><p><strong>Palavras-chave</strong>: Entropia, termodinâmica, processos irreversíveis, teoria de campo calórico.</p>
<p>This article provides an overview of the known current situation of Guanabara Bay with respect to its pervasive plastic waste pollution, continuing the paired authors' previous works. In addition, the study opens up a broader public discussion on the fundamentals of global degradation, proposing a review of environmental education curriculums including the correct appropriation of the concept of entropy among adults and young people as well. In this sense, the authors deepen the concept and emphasize the importance of considering it in critical reflections on our present-day and future worldly behaviors and actions. Lastly, the work provides some significant and important relevant data and useful references, tracing some lines of thought for building viable solutions, so that the reader can start or continue further studies on the topic addressed herein.</p><p> <strong>Key-words:</strong><strong> </strong>Guanabara Bay,<strong> </strong>entropy, plastic waste, environmental education, global degradation, consumerism.</p><p><strong><span>======================================================================</span> </strong></p><p><strong> </strong>O presente artigo fornece um apanhado geral da situação atual da Baía de Guanabara com respeito à poluição por resíduos plásticos, dando continuidade aos trabalhos anteriores dos autores.

This chapter continues previous studies in service-oriented architectures (SOA) on clouds of quantum computers, considering quantum entanglement and quantum teleportation of states of services as resources to deploy high production in IT environments and to guide studies on the implementation of intelligent behavior in server clouds. A way to preserve quantum entanglement is presented. Also, the chapter proposes a metalanguage to organize the topology of orchestration of services. This topology is embedded in the states of services and takes part in the information to be teleported from server to server. The creation of entangled states of information with the aid of the concept of progenitor is reviewed with some details.
The persistent silence of cosmic immensity despite our efforts to communicate with possible extraterrestrial intelligences has reaffirmed an intriguing paradox in face of the logically estimated chances of intelligent life outside Earth. However, this paradox may not be exactly a contradiction, but an appearance arising from the reality of our universe. Bearing in mind that skepticism is a fundamental element of the scientific purpose, this paper describes the system of reasons why extraterrestrial contacts are very unlikely, even though intelligent life may be a relatively common fact everywhere.Resumo: O persistente silêncio da imensidão cósmica a despeito dos nossos esforços de comunicação com possíveis inteligências extraterrestres tem reafirmado um intrigante paradoxo diante das chances logicamente estimadas de existência de vida inteligente fora da Terra. Entretanto, esse paradoxo pode não ser exatamente uma contradição, mas uma aparência decorrente da própria realidade do nosso universo. Tendo em mente que o ceticismo é um elemento fundamental da atitude científica, o presente artigo descreve o sistema de razões que tornam pouco provável um contato extraterrestre, mesmo que a vida inteligente seja um fato relativamente comum em toda parte.

RésuméCette thèse traite de la mise en ouvre d'un nouveau mode de gestion des déchets urbains en termes de la destination non-agressif et productif des débris, à de faibles coûts énergé-tiques et à forte réutilisation des sous-produits. Il repose sur les fondements scientiques établies par la thermodynamique, la théorie classique du champ et par les disciplines empiriques qui traitent de propriétés des éléments chimiques et des technologies de capture calorique à partir de sources éloignées. Visant à la transformation de toute forme de matière condensée, ce travail est principalement intéressés par les déchets dits infectieux, parce qu'ils ont dune plus grande virulence, l'infectiosité et concentration, et les déchets de type peau-ciseaux-perçage, qui sont des objets et instruments contenant des coins, des arêtes ou des protubérances rigides et aiguës capables de coupe ou de forage. Néanmoins, le modèle s'applique également à tous les types de déchets, à l'exception des déchets radioactifs pour des raisons évidentes de sécurité. Cet essai propose un système industriel de recyclage des déchets basé sur la pyrolyse induite par plasma et guidé par la théorie proposée des champs caloriques sous entropie contrôlée.Mots-clés: déchets nosocomiales, thermodynamique, champ calorique, plasma, pyrolyse, énergie solaire, durabilité i Abstract This thesis discusses the implementation of a new way of urban waste management in terms of its non-aggressive and productive destination, at low energy costs and with high reuse of byproducts. It is based on scientic foundations established by thermodynamics, classical eld theory and empirical disciplines that deal with properties of chemical elements and with technologies of caloric capture from remote sources.Aiming at the transformation of any form of condensed matter, it is primarily interested in the so-called infectious waste, because they have greater virulence, infectivity and concentration, and wastes of type skin-scissoring-piercing, which are objects and instruments containing corners, edges or rigid and acute protuberances capable of cutting or drilling. Nevertheless, the model also applies to all types of waste, with the exception of radioactive waste for obvious safety reasons. Present work proposes an industrial system to recycling waste based on pyrolysis induced by plasma and guided by the proposed theory of caloric elds under controlled entropy.

Present article discusses the production of concrete artifacts that use in their composition recycling aggregates of Solid Waste from Construction and Demolition (SWCD). The study was designed as experimental / comparative, with destructive tests of proof bodies made with recycled aggregates (test group) and with traditional aggregates (control group). Subsequent statistical analysis of the data collected from the comparison between these groups was conducted. The optimal dosage for artifacts produced with recycled aggregates was found, demonstrating that the choice of recycled materials could be an economical and environmentally sustainable solution in the context of the eco-innovations.
