1. Extraction and Characterization of Pequi Seed Oil for Biodiesel Production: A Green Management of Waste to Biofuel Using Ethanol and Heterogeneous Catalysis
This work reports the characterization of a vegetable oil extracted from pequi seeds, an agroindustrial residue, and its biodiesel production using ethanol and heterogeneous catalysis. The pequi seeds showed 40.73 wt.% of extractive content, which represents a large amount of the biomass composition. The crude oil extracted from the pequi seeds with ethanol

2. CONVERSION OF SPENT FAT OIL INTO LIQUID AND GASEOUS FUELS THROUGH CLINKER CATALYZED PYROLYSIS
Abstract Repeated heating of fat oil may result in the formation of highly toxic aldehyde compounds. The oils having such compounds are considered as health hazards and therefore their repeated use is banned in many countries. Since huge quantities of the used oil need urgent disposal, this work is focused on the disposal of used oil for the resource recover

3. Tratamento da lama vermelha com CO2 e ácido acético para aplicação em sistemasTipo Fenton e Fotocatálise
RESUMO A lama vermelha (LV_Nat) foi utilizada como matéria-prima para a preparação de dois materiais modificados com 1% (LV_1%) e 5% (LV_5%) de ácido acético. LV_Nat, LV_1% e LV_5% foram caracterizados (composição mineralógica, área BET específica, microscopia eletrônica de varredura, difração de raios X, espectroscopia XANES na borda-K do Fe, i

4. PRODUCTION OF FATTY ACID METHYL ESTERS FROM AN OLIVE OIL INDUSTRY WASTE
ABSTRACT This work studies the synthesis of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) using crude olive pomace oil as raw material and zinc stearate as catalyst. Pomace oil is a non-edible by-product of olive oil production. The oil was characterized. In order to reduce the plant pigment content in the oil, the liquid was contacted with a modified clay. An experimenta

5. Estudio de la actividad antifúngica de materiales conteniendo carbón proveniente de pilas en desuso
ABSTRACT The large number of batteries that are discarded and the environmental impact that the inadequate disposition of the waste of the same produces impelled to its recycling. Both alkaline and zinc-carbon batteries have as their main components zinc and carbon mixed with other oxides, in their internal fill. In this work, the silica synthesis was carrie

6. Electroremediation of deactivated catalysts from fluidised catalytic cracking for vanadium removal - the effect of a dual cathode chamber reactor
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the quantity of vanadium removed through electrokinetic remediation applied to catalyst waste used in a fluid catalytic cracking process. In excess, vanadium affects process efficiency by reducing the catalyst’s activity, causing deactivation and reducing its useful life in petroleum cracking during refining.

7. Synthetic Niobium Oxyhydroxide as a Bifunctional Catalyst for Production of Ethers and Allyl Alcohol from Waste Glycerol
A synthetic niobia was modified by treatment with hydrogen peroxide to be used as a catalyst for converting glycerol into petrochemical compounds. The catalytic properties of niobium oxyhydroxide were obtained by generating acidic and oxygenated groups (peroxo groups) on the solid surface. Compounds like ethers and allyl alcohol were obtained. A very active

8. Degrading Pesticides with Waste Product: Imidazole-Functionalized Rice Husk Catalyst for Organophosphate Detoxification
Rice husk (RH) is one the largest agricultural waste products worldwide, and rice is one of the crops that use the most pesticides. Among these, organophosphates have been of increasing concern due to their high toxicity. Herein, we report the functionalization of RH with imidazole groups (RHIMZ) to obtain sustainable catalysts from waste for organophosphate

9. PRODUÇÃO DE BIODIESEL A PARTIR DE ÁCIDOS GRAXOS PROVENIENTES DO REFINO DE ÓLEOS VEGETAIS VIA CATÁLISE ÁCIDA HETEROGENEA E MICRO-ONDAS
This work presents the biofuel production results of the esterification of fatty acids (C12-C18) and high-acid-content waste vegetable oils from different soap stocks (soybean, palm, and coconut) with methanol, ethanol, and butanol by acid catalysis. We used Amberlyst-35 (A35) sulfonic resin as a heterogeneous acid catalyst and p-toluenesulfonic acid as a ho

10. ACIDIC REMOVAL OF METALS FROM FLUIDIZED CATALYTIC CRACKING CATALYST WASTE ASSISTED BY ELECTROKINETIC TREATMENT
AbstractOne of the main uses of catalysts in the oil industry is in the fluidized catalytic cracking process, which generates large quantities of waste material after use and regeneration cycles and that can be treated by the electrokinetic remediation technique, in which the contaminant metals are transported by migration. In this study, deactivated FCC cat

11. APROVEITAMENTO DE RESÍDUO DE BIODIESEL PARA PREPARAÇÃO DE CARVÕES ÁCIDOS COM ELEVADA ATIVIDADE CATALÍTICA NA REAÇÃO DE ETERIFICAÇÃO DO GLICEROL
Environmentally friendly acid carbon (CG) catalysts, containing a high amount of sulfonated and oxygenated groups, were prepared from glycerin, a biodiesel waste. CGs were produced by glycerin carbonization in the presence of H2SO4 at 1:3 m:m ratio in a closed autoclave at 180ºC for different times: 0.25; 1; 3 and 6 hours (CG-0.25h; CG-1h; CG-3h and CG-6h,

12. Upgrade of Biofuels Obtained from Waste Fish Oil Pyrolysis by Reactive Distillation
Bio-oil is classified as second-generation biofuel and it is produced mainly through the pyrolysis of a waste lignocellulosic biomass base. The application of this product is still very limited, due to some of its chemical characteristics. This paper presents a proposal for the reduction of the acidity of bio-oil obtained from waste fish oil, previously prod
