Abstract: We consider the exclusion process in the one-dimensional discrete torus with N points, where all the bonds have conductance one, except a finite number of slow bonds, with conductance , with . We prove that the time evolution of the empirical density of particles, in the diffusive scaling, has a distinct behavior according to the range of the parameter . If , the hydrodynamic limit is given by the usual heat equation. If , it is given by a parabolic equation involving an operator fracddxfracddW, where W is the Lebesgue measure on the torus plus the sum of the Dirac measure supported on each macroscopic point related to the slow bond. If , it is given by the heat equation with Neumann's boundary conditions, meaning no passage through the slow bonds in the continuum.
