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 ...
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 ...
Hidrólise controlada das proteínas do leite de vaca com proteases imobilizadas para redução da alergenicidade
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2020-09-29)
Allergy to cow's milk is clinically an abnormal reaction to cow's milk proteins regulated by immunological mechanisms and which affects mainly children. The partial hydrolysis of these proteins, catalyzed by proteases, ...
Modelagem cinética da síntese de galacto-oligossacarídeos usando a β-galactosidase de Kluyveromyces lactis
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2020-12-22)
Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) have a high commercial value and are used in the food industry. GOS are non-digestible oligosaccharides (NDO), which are considered prebiotics. They can be produced enzymatically from substrates ...
Development of stable and high-performance polyaniline activated carbon electrodes for capacitive deionization desalination
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2021-04-19)
Capacitive deionization (CDI) emerged as a cost-effective alternative for the desalination of brackish water (salt concentration lower than 10 g L−1). Significant progress in electrode materials in terms of salt adsorption ...
Conversão de furfural sobre zeólitas (Hf, Al)-ZSM-5 hierárquicas: controle da relação de sítios ácidos de Lewis e Brønsted e seu efeito na seletividade a produtos
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2021-04-29)
One-pot catalytic processes using heterogeneous acid catalysts have been a promising strategy for the valorization of platform molecules from lignocellulosic biomass, such as the transformation of furfural (Fur) to ...
Mitigação dos inibidores gerados no pré-tratamento da biomassa vegetal: impacto técnico-econômico-ambiental de diferentes rotas de processo na biorrefinaria
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2021-04-27)
The presence of inhibitors is still an economic bottleneck that needs to be resolved in order to make 1G2G ethanol biorefineries feasible, requiring the development of technologies capable of improving their competitiveness ...
Estruturas de controle de biorreator baseadas em fluxos metabólicos para fermentações micro-aeradas
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2021-04-15)
The supply of oxygen as a limiting nutrient in bioreactors is a challenge, as microorganisms may have different metabolic requirements, besides the difficulty of measuring this variable in low levels. Despite the obstacles, ...
Modelagem matemática para sínteses enzimáticas de biossurfactantes catalisadas por lipases imobilizadas
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2021-07-08)
Enzymatic reactions of esterification of fatty acids with carbohydrates generate biosurfactants, products with high capacity to reduce surface and interfacial tensions, applicable mainly in the food, pharmaceutical and ...
