1. The Contribution of Meteorological Parameters and the COVID-19 Partial Lockdown on Air Quality in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
This study evaluated the pollutant levels (NO2, SO2, CO, and O3), air quality index (AQI) and the influence of meteorological variables and coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic on the air quality in Rio de Janeiro. The data set used comprises periods before (March-April, 2019) and during pandemic (March-April, 2020). According to the AQI results, on most

4. REGULATED AIR POLLUTANT EMISSIONS FROM HIGHER EMITTERS STATIONARY SOURCES IN BELO HORIZONTE, MINAS GERAIS, BRAZIL
Abstract Belo Horizonte, capital of Minas Gerais state, is a highly urbanized city located in the third largest metropolitan area of Brazil, being one of the most important cities in the country. There are several potential air pollutant emission sources in the studied area, such as industry and the vehicular fleet (1,669,884 vehicles in 2015). These can aff

5. Estimated evolution of total pollutant gas emissions associated with vehicle activity in the Metropolitan Region of Porto Alegre until 2030
ABSTRACT In recent years, the majority of economic sectors in Brazil have gone through processes of development and transformation. These processes have led to increases in environmental pollution of all kinds; air pollution being one of the most adverse. The Brazilian transportation sector, which heavily affects the air quality, experienced a significant in

6. Perspectivas para a contribuição do uso do etanol no transporte público urbano, visando à redução da poluição atmosférica - estudo de caso: Projeto Best / Perspectives to the contribution of ethanol utilization in the public urban transport, aiming to reduce air pollution - Case study: BEST Project
Diesel oil is the fuel with major importance in the automotive energy matrix in Brazil, corresponding to nearly half of the total fuel volume consumed in the country, apart from being a global option fuel for public urban transport. Diesel oil is a fossil fuel, not renewable, produced from fractioned petrol distillation; its use is linked to local air pollut

7. Comparison of spectral models in the computation of radiative heat transfer in participating media composed of gases and soot
Accurate combustion models are necessary to predict, among other effects, the production of pollutant gases and the heat transfer. As an important part of the combustion modeling, thermal radiation is often the dominant heat transfer mechanism, involving absorption and emission from soot and participating gases, such as water vapor and carbon dioxides. If th

10. Employment of acoustic field for pollutant emission reduction under lean combustion
Pulsating combustion is a technique that directly intervenes in combustion processes modifying pollutant emissions and increasing thermal efficiency by varying pressure and temperature in the flame region. The pulsations accelerate mixture rate between oxidant and fuel, resulting in a more intense combustion process, with low fuel waste and potential for low

12. Modelling undesirable outputs with zero sum gains data envelopment analysis models.
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) literature has proposed alternative models for performance assessment in the presence of undesirable outputs, such as pollutant emissions, where increased outputs imply reduced performance. However, the case where global equilibrium of outputs should be imposed has not yet been considered. We propose that the zero sum gains DE
