The turbidity values show that Moringa oleifera can be used as an aid to the preliminary filtration, since it was possible to achieve an efficiency reduction of up to 95% in the final effluent, and the efficiency indexes did not exceed 17 % in the absence of coagulant. As it is still preliminary tests of a future experiment, it is possible to standardize other criteria for the tests so that the microspheres are not seen in negative control, even in insignificant amounts, in order to have a greater reliability in the tests. 5.

Abstract This study aims to identify: 1) the most representative variables hydrological regionalization studies, using principal component analysis (PCA) and 2) to optimize the identification of the hydrologically homogeneous regions in studies of regionalization of water flow using cluster analysis (CLUSTER) for the rio Doce basin. Fifteen variables were used in the study, individualized to 61 gauging stations: Q 7, 10 , Q 90 , Q 95 , Q mld , Q max10 , Q max20 , Q max50 , Q max100 , P a , P ss , P sc , A d , L p , L t and S L . The results of the principal component analysis pointed out that the variable SL was the least representative for the study. The first two principal components, Y 1 and Y 2 , were responsible for 77.92% of the total variation of the data. The best divisions of hydrologically homogeneous regions were obtained using the similarity matrix of Mahalanobis and the complete linkage clustering method. The Cluster analysis enabled the identification of four hydrologically homogeneous regions in the watershed of the rio Doce. Key words: Principal Components, Cluster Analysis e Regionalization of flow. 1. INTRODUCTION In general, it is understood by hydrological regionalization process the transferring information from one region of the hydrological behavior known to other sites, often without observations. In this context, multivariate statistical analyzes can help significantly in the studies of hydrological regionalization, reducing processing time from the database and increasing the reliability of results. At the international level can prove this statement by the development of numerous studies addressing the hydrological regionalization based on multivariate statistical analyzes (Assani et al., 2011; Kahya et al., 2007; Mwale et al., 2010, Samuel et al., 2010; Engeland & Hisdal, 2009; Castiglioni et al., 2009). The principal component analysis (PCA) aims to examine the correlations between variables, summarize a large set of variables into a smaller one and the same meaning, evaluate the importance of each variable and promote the elimination of those that contribute little in terms variation in the group of individuals evaluated (WILKS, 2006). In recent years, many applications of this technique have been studied in various fields of knowledge such as: genetics (Price et al., 2006; Haider et al., 2008), chemistry (Bellomarino et al., 2010), environment (Reid & Spencer, 2009), among others. Multivariate statistical analysis of Cluster is a tool of exploratory data with the aim of classifying homogeneous groups (Wilks, 2006), which has been used in numerous areas of knowledge, for example, medicine (Mezer et al., 2008 ), geomorphology (Melchiorre et al., 2008) and environmental engineering (Pires et al., 2007; Hatvani et al., 2011). In hydrology, the cluster analysis is a technique often used to define classes or for grouping stations into homogeneous climatic regions. In view of this, this study aimed to develop a methodology based on multivariate statistical of principal components and cluster analysis for the identification of variables most representative studies of hydrological regionalization and optimize the achievement of 1
