Synthesis of isoamyl esters from soybean oil deodorizer distillate by enzymatic catalysis for biolubricant applications
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2022-07-26)
Lubricants are among the many products whose manufacture is highly dependent on nonrenewable fossil resources, with high levels of production and a vast marketplace, so they are the focus of many environmental laws around ...
Produção integrada de etanol de cana-de-açúcar e milho em usinas flex: simulação e análises tecno-econômica e ambiental
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2022-03-03)
Liquid biofuels are important alternatives to traditional fossil fuels, not only environmentally, but also socially and from an energy security standpoint. Brazil has a consolidated infrastructure for the production, ...
Produção de nanomateriais a base de carbono obtidos a partir da decomposição catalítica de metano
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2022-04-29)
The natural gas reforming routes are consolidated technologies in the production of H2, however, these
