(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2020-03-26)
Issues related to sustainability and development of renewable and less polluting processes are increasingly in evidence, due to the various environmental crises and a greater concern with the scarcity of non-renewable ...
Contribuições da engenharia de sistemas em bioprocessos à transição para a economia neutra em carbono: análise tecno-econômica-ambiental de biorrefinarias
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2020-03-16)
R&D of (bio)chemical processes should include economic analysis and environmental assessment since the early stages of research, to improve the chance of successful industrial implementation. Process Systems Engineering ...
Estudo sobre o desempenho de válvulas não-mecânicas como alimentadores de biomassa residual de borra de café em reatores de leito pneumático circulante: experimentação e modelagem via CFD-TFM
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2020-08-24)
The continuous and stable feeding of particulate solids to reactors is essential for energy cogeneration in industrial processes, for example, by using biomass residues. Nevertheless, flow instabilities and blockage of ...
Esterificação de glicerol com ácido benzoico sobre zeólitas H-ZSM-5 hierárquicas incorporadas com Zr ou Nb
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2020-03-19)
Acid zeolites are microporous aluminosilicates, which exhibit negative charged AlO4- tetrahedrons in its lattice balanced by protons (H+), generating Brønsted acid sites (BAS). The Lewis acidity of zeolites is commonly ...
Compreendendo a reação ‘step-wise’ de conversão de metano a metanol usando zeólitas trocadas ionicamente com cobre
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2020-03-06)
Methane (CH4) is a stable molecule abundantly found on our planet with reserves even
greater than crude oil. Due to its high availability and environmental impacts caused by
its emission into the atmosphere, the development ...
Immobilization of enzymes of agroindustrial interest on hydroxyapatite nanoparticles: β-glucosidase, xylase and phytase
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2020-03-10)
Industrial processes are increasingly requiring environmentally sustainable technologies and the use of enzymes is relevant due to the selectivity and specificity of these biocatalysts. However, the application of soluble ...
Niobium-based oxides for oxidative and reductive photocatalytic reactions
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2020-02-21)
It is growing the number of studies related to alternative technologies allowing both, environmental remediation and clean energy production. In this sense, photocatalysis is a promising process, since it is sustainable ...
