1. 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

2. The Mutagenic Potential Caused by the Emissions from Combustion of Crude Glycerin and Diesel Fuel
This study evaluated the use of crude glycerin as an alternative of energy generation to replace the traditional fuels. The Tradescantia stamen hair mutation assay (Trad-SH) was applied to study the mutagenic effects caused by the emissions generated in the direct combustion of diesel oil and glycerin in a flame tube furnace. Tradescantia inflorescences were

3. Experimental Study of Polyurethane-Based Fuels with Addition of Paraffin and Aluminum for Hybrid Rocket Motors
ABSTRACT: Experimental investigation was conducted to determine the relative propulsive and combustion behavior of several polyurethane-based solid-fuel formulations containing 30% w/w of paraffin or 10% of aluminum powder. In total, seven solid-fuel formulations were investigated, four containing 30% of paraffin and three with 10% of aluminum. The polyureth

4. DESENVOLVIMENTO DE UM PROCESSO CONTÍNUO PARA PRODUÇÃO DE BIODIESEL A BAIXAS TEMPERATURAS. / DEVELOPMENT OF A CONTINUOUS PROCESS FOR PRODUCING BIODIESEL AT LOW TEMPERATURES.
Biodiesel has emerged worldwide as a promising alternative to oil-derived mineral fuels. It is biodegradable, renewable, obey to the carbon cycle and can be defined as fatty acid monoalquyl esters derived from renewable sources, such as vegetable oils and animal fats. It can be produced from a transesterification reaction, in which there is the transformatio

5. The performance of hydrogen-powered 4-stroke SI engine using locally designed fuel regulator
In this work, the performance of a spark ignition engine powered with hydrogen fuel was studied and compared with gasoline fuel. Hydrogen fuel was used, using a locally made stainless steel gaseous regulator which was designed and installed in engine. This regulator was located between the engine and the hydrogen fuel cylinder, and it is triggered by the suc

8. Produção de biodiesel via transesterificação do óleo de nabo forrageiro
The obtainment of solid, liquid and gaseous fuels from biomass is among the well-known possibilities of the use of the energetic resources. Brazil is considered a privileged country to develop from biomass point of view, due to its vast farmland, abundance of water and high incidence of solar radiation on the land, and the availability of rural workforce. Pr

9. Efeito dos dióxidos de enxofre e de nitrogênio no desempenho de uma célula a combustível de membrana de intercâmbio de prótons
There is presently much interest in the clean and efficient generation of energy by proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC), using hydrogen as fuel. The generation of hydrogen by the reforming of other fuels, anaerobic fermentation of residual waters and other methods, often produce contaminants that affect the performance of the cell. In this work, the

10. ÉSTERES COMBUSTÍVEIS EM MOTOR DE CICLO DIESEL SOB CONDIÇÕES DE PRÉ-AQUECIMENTO E VARIAÇÃO NO AVANÇO DE INJEÇÃO / ESTERS FUELS IN DIESEL ENGINES UNDER PRE-HEATING CONDITIONS AND VARYING INJECTION TIMING
The renewed interest in energy for biomass is supported by the need for different energy sources and the need to protect the environment. Recently, because of increases in crude oil prices, limited resources of fossil oil and environmental concerns there has been renewed focus on vegetable oils and animal fats to make a biodiesel fuel. What is known as biodi

11. Ethanol vapor production and feeding for an internal combustion engine operating with pre-vaporized fuel / Produção e fornecimento de vapor de etanol para motor de combustão interna operando com combustível pré-vaporizado
O motor a álcool pré-vaporizado tem potencial para ser uma alternativa mais eficiente e menos poluente aos motores a álcool convencionais. Nele, o combustível é vaporizado com calor rejeitado pelo próprio motor e admitido na fase gasosa, aproveitando-se das vantagens dos motores com combustíveis nessa fase sem alguns dos seus inconvenientes. O projeto

12. Influence of the starting materials on performance of high temperature oxide fuel cells devices
High temperature solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) offer an environmentally friendly technology to convert gaseous fuels such as hydrogen, natural gas or gasified coal into electricity at high efficiencies. Besides the efficiency, higher than those obtained from the traditional energy conversion systems, a fuel cell provides many other advantages like reliabili
