A influência da morfologia do MgO nas propriedades catalíticas do SiO2/MgO para a formação de 1,3-Butadieno a partir de etanol
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2016-05-31)
Ethanol has been largely studied in the past few decades as a substitute to fossil fuels
in the synthesis of a large variety of chemicals. 1,3-Butadiene, one of these compounds, is an important chemical intermediate and ...
Produção otimizada de 1,3-propanodiol, ácido propiônico, etanol e hidrogênio, a partir de glicerol bruto e cultura mista, em reator anaeróbio de leito fluidificado
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2016-03-18)
This study aimed to optimize the production of hydrogen and other metabolites using
crude glycerol as substrate, through design of experiments (DoE) and statistical process
optimization. The first study aimed at optimizing ...
Sustentabilidade energética do etanol de primeira geração no Brasil : uma releitura crítica de referenciais metodológicos
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2017-02-01)
In the long run, all fossil energy, such as oil, natural gas, coal, and radioactive material, will run out. Within a horizon of one or two centuries, all energy must come from renewable sources. The concept of sustainable ...
Destilação instantânea em regime transiente: Dorna Volante modificada
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2016-03-29)
In the intense search for better environmental conditions, it is necessary not only to invest in renewable fuels but also to seek improvements in the production processes of these fuels. With this in mind, in this work the ...
Efeito da velocidade ascensional na produção de hidrogênio em reator anaeróbio de leito fluidizado
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2010-08-30)
This study evaluated the influence of the upflow velocity in anaerobic fluidized bed reactor to produce hydrogen. In order to compare that effect, four reactors were used under different upflow velocities each: 0.30; 0.60; ...
Catalisadores derivados de óxidos do tipo perovskita LaMO3, LaMFeO3 e LaMO3/γ-Al2O3 (M = Co, Ni ou Fe) aplicados à reforma a vapor de etanol
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2014-07-30)
The hydrogen production has been extensively studied as a clean and powerful energy source, indicating that in the future hydrogen will became a key component for the global energy production, since burning fossil fuels, ...
Fermentação alcoólica: desenvolvimento de metodologia para o cálculo de eficiência e modelagem por redes neurais de unidade de fermentação industrial
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2019-02-21)
The search for alternative sources of fuel, economically and environmentally viable, that could replace fossil fuels has increased in the last years. Brazil occupies a prominent position regarding the pioneering development ...
Modelagem, simulação e análise técnico-econômica-ambiental do processo de extração de óleo de soja por hexano e etanol e da produção de biodiesel
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2019-07-04)
Brazil is the second largest producer of soybean, with the projection of becoming the largest producer in 2019/2020. All Brazilian soybean oil is produced by the extraction process with hexane, an oil derivative. One way ...
Assesment of alternative routes for sugarcane-based ethanol recovery: exergy and economic analysis
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2018-02-28)
The aim of this thesis was to develop a methodological approach that can systematically guide process simulation for better understanding of bioethanol production process. In the present work, the ethanol production process ...
Biorrefinaria florestal : uma proposta para integração dos processos de obtenção de nanocelulose e etanol 2G a partir da polpa de celulose de eucalipto
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2016-02-29)
The use of eucalyptus kraft as biomass for an integrated production of sugars and new
added-value products such as nanocellulose, stands out a potential strategy for the
implementation of a forest biorefinary, that can ...
