25. Early induction of orthotropic shoots in Coffea canephora
ABSTRACT In Coffea canephora, the number of orthotropic shoots is directly related to plant yield. The objective of this study was to evaluate the vegetative and yield performance of Coffea canephora, from the botanical variety Conilon, under different management systems for early emission of orthotropic shoots. The experiment was carried out in Ouro Preto d

26. CLASSIFICATION OF ROBUSTA COFFEE FRUITS AT DIFFERENT MATURATION STAGES USING COLORIMETRIC CHARACTERISTICS
ABSTRACT Coffee growers who produce the robusta species (Conilon) have sought to increase productivity and drink quality by improving production techniques. Artificial vision systems can assist in increasing the efficiency of operations associated with crop management. This study aimed to obtain colorimetric characteristics of robusta coffee fruits at differ

27. DIRECT CONNECTION PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEM IN MULTI-MOTOR APPLICATION FOR THE RURAL SECTOR
ABSTRACT Photovoltaic pumping systems equipped with variable speed drive have been consolidated as an alternative for water supply in rural locations where energy services are unavailable. Such systems are of the direct connection type and, therefore, it is likely that their operation occurs in two situations: when energy is available and when the reservoir

28. Budbreak induction in kiwifruit vines cultivated in an organic system by the biological method of single node cutting
ABSTRACT Kiwifruit vines are an alternative approach to diversify Brazilian fruit farming because of the low supply and increase in the demand for their fruits. Hydrogenated cyanamide, which is the most common rest-breaking agent, is highly toxic and its use is not allowed in organic production systems. This study aimed at evaluating the efficiency of altern

29. Liquid whey protein concentrates as primary raw material for acid dairy gels
Abstract The replacement of dehydrated products such as whey protein concentrates and isolates (WPC and WPI) by liquid whey protein concentrates (LWPC) obtained by ultrafiltration can be an excellent alternative for the production of innovative dairy products. Thus, the aim of this work is to study the gelation properties of LWPC as raw material for acid-ind

30. Chitosan and Agaricus brasiliensis Polysaccharides Films: A Preliminary Study
The known biotechnological properties of chitosan and the recent biological activities attributed to polysaccharides from Agaricus brasiliensis have been of interest to obtain films constituted by these two polymers. The glucans obtained from the mushroom inhibited about 96.5% of the ferrous ion, besides not promoting a significant increase of lactate dehydr

31. USE OF INOCULUM IN BIODIGESTERS WITH CATTLE MANURE UNDER CONVENTIONAL AND ORGANIC PRODUCTION SYSTEMS
ABSTRACT One way of making livestock farming a more sustainable practice is to raise cattle organically. However, regardless of the production system, there is a generation of residues that can be converted into energy resources using biodigesters. This study aimed to evaluate the addition of inoculum in the anaerobic biodigestion of cattle manure under orga

32. INCREASED ENERGY COGENERATION IN THE SUGAR-ENERGY SECTOR WITH THE USE OF SUGARCANE STRAW, ELECTRIFICATION OF DRIVES, AND HIGH-DRAINAGE ROLLERS IN THE EXTRACTION
ABSTRACT The sugar-energy sector stands out in the production of electrical energy in the Brazilian energy matrix. The updating of Law 9,427 allowed increasing the limit of power injected in the transmission or distribution systems of existing projects from 30 to 50 MW, encouraging studies of expansion and/or implementation of new cogeneration projects. This

33. Dynamic risk calculation model applied to gas compressor
Abstract The present article proposes to apply a Risk-Based Maintenance methodology in a gas compression system. This risk calculation is based on a semi-quantitative mathematical model that uses the interdependence of process variables and predictive maintenance data applied in a Condition-Based Maintenance methodology, in order to obtain the calculation of

34. PHYSICAL AND THERMAL PROPERTIES OF EUCALYPTUS WOOD CHARCOAL.
ABSTRACT The knowledge of the physical and thermal properties of eucalyptus charcoal is of fundamental importance in the design of equipment and development of cooling technologies. However, literature about physical properties for eucalyptus wood charcoal is largely unavailable, especially the thermal and aerodynamic properties, for the same material. The a

35. An Overview of the Photocatalytic H2 Evolution by Semiconductor-Based Materials for Nonspecialists
The solar-to-chemical energy conversion is promising to tackle sustainability challenges toward a global future. The production of H2 from sunlight represents an attractive alternative to the use of carboniferous fossil fuels to meet our energy demands. In this context, the water splitting reaction photocatalyzed by semiconductors that can be excited under v

36. ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS FOR PREDICTION OF PHYSIOLOGICAL AND PRODUCTIVE VARIABLES OF BROILERS
ABSTRACT Due to a number of factors involving the thermal environment of a broiler cutting installation and its interaction with the physiological and productive responses of birds, artificial intelligence has been shown to be an interesting methodology to assist in the decision-making process. For this reason, the main aim of this work was to develop an art
