Liquid-solid fluidized bed dynamics: experimental and computational analysis
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2023-11-06)
The liquid-solid fluidization is a simple process intensification strategy. The method remains underexplored, in part, due to the lack of predictability. It is not trivial to assess its internal dynamics without a robust ...
Desenvolvimento de catalisador heterogêneo para síntese de biodiesel em sistema contínuo
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2023-03-15)
The growing interest in biodiesel production has encouraged studies that enable the generation of national technology in this field, considering that, industrially, biodiesel is already produced in continuous systems, but ...
