1. Determination of Methanol in Gasoline and Ethanol Fuels by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography
Gasoline and ethanol fuels have been adulterated with methanol in Brazil. Methanol is not permitted in concentrations greater than 0.5 vol% due its toxicity but its lower price stimulates the adulteration. A new approach for quantitative analysis of methanol in gasoline and ethanol fuels is reported employing high-performance liquid chromatography coupled wi

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. Evaluation of endoglucanase and β-glucosidase production by bacteria and yeasts isolated from a eucalyptus plantation in the cerrado of Minas Gerais
Resumo O atual cenário ambiental e econômico global tem uma relação intrínseca com o aumento do consumo de combustíveis fósseis causados pelo desenvolvimento de tecnologias e pelo crescimento da população mundial. Assim, é necessário procurar fontes renováveis de biocombustíveis na tentativa de mitigar os efeitos dos combustíveis fósseis no me

4. Genetic Engineering In BioButanol Production And Tolerance
ABSTRACT The growing need to address current energy and environmental problems has sparked an interest in developing improved biological methods to produce liquid fuels from renewable sources. Higher-chain alcohols possess chemical properties that are more similar to gasoline. Ethanol and butanol are two products which are used as biofuel. Butanol production

5. Fontes, formação, reatividade e determinação de quinonas na atmosfera
Quinones are a group of semi-volatile organic substances, ubiquitous in nature, belonging to the class of oxygenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (Oxygenated PAH). These compounds are formed in biogenic processes, through the oxidative metabolism of endogenous compounds, such as catecholamines, estrogen hormones and xenobiotics, as well as directly emitt

6. Etched FBG written in multimode fibers: sensing characteristics and applications in the liquid fuels sector
AbstractIn this work, a refractometric fiber sensor for the liquid fuels sector is described. The use of etched FBGs produced in multimode fibers is proposed to overcome the drawbacks associated with sensing high refractive index samples employing fiber transducers. The transducer sensitivity can be tailored by adjusting the final diameter of the etched Brag

7. Experimental Valuation Diagnostics of Hydrous Ethanol Sprays Formed by a Blurry Injector
ABSTRACT: Concerns about the rising fuel price and environmental changes have led to the search for alternative fuels and energy sources. The interest in improving the performance of power generation, with the aim of reducing costs, increasing operating efficiency, and reducing the emissions of pollutants, has driven the scientific community to work on new b

8. Química e sustentabilidade: novas fronteiras em biocombustíveis
This contribution discusses the state of the art and the challenges in producing biofuels, as well as the need to develop chemical conversion processes of CO2 in Brazil. Biofuels are sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels for providing energy, whilst minimizing the effects of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere. Ethanol from fermentation of simple sugars and

9. Química Sem Fronteiras: o desafio da energia
Coal, natural gas and petroleum-based liquid fuels are still the most widely used energy sources in modern society. The current scenario contrasts with the foreseen shortage of petroleum that was spread out in the beginning of the XXI century, when the concept of "energy security" emerged as an urgent agenda to ensure a good balance between energy supply and

10. Modelagem e simulação do processo de fermentação extrativa a vácuo com uma câmara de flash e separação do CO2 utilizando uma coluna de absorção / Modeling and simulation of the vacuum extractive fermentation process using a flash chamber and an absorption column for CO2 separation
The ethanol, also known as bioethanol, shows positive characteristics for being used as a large scale fuel, mainly because of the relatively low cost, low pollutant impact compared to fossil fuels and its feasibility of being produced from a renewable matrix through fermentation of vegetable origin products. The conventional fermentation process is typically

11. Recovery of hydrocarbon liquid from waste high density polyethylene by thermal pyrolysis
Thermal degradation of waste plastics in an inert atmosphere has been regarded as a productive method, because this process can convert waste plastics into hydrocarbons that can be used either as fuels or as a source of chemicals. In this work, waste high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic was chosen as the material for pyrolysis. A simple pyrolysis reactor

12. Cracking and hydrocracking of triglycerides for renewable liquid fuels: alternative processes to transesterification
Os processos industriais mais utilizados na produção de combustíveis líquidos semelhantes ao diesel usam catalisadores homogêneos básicos através das metanólise e etanólise de óleos tais como os de soja, canola, palma entre outros. Desse modo, se obtém o biodiesel. Por sua vez, transformações termo-catalíticas usando as facilidades existentes n
