1. Catalysts Derived from Thermal Treatments of Hydrocalumite-Type Compounds: Synthesis and Application in Transesterification Reactions
Catalyst performance is a relevant factor in biodiesel production because it can affect the efficiency of the process. This work provides a study of the performance of heterogeneous catalysts for biodiesel production derived from thermal-treated hydrocalumite-type compounds. This work aimed to synthesize and characterize hydrocalumite-type compounds intercal

2. AMORPHOUS CUSEP2/GRAPHENE COMPOSITES AS ANODE MATERIAL FOR ADVANCED POTASSIUM-ION BATTERY
The ternary amorphous CuSeP2 was designed and prepared as the anode material of potassium ion battery for the first time, and its electrochemical performance was also investigated. After ball-milling with commercial graphene powder, it is used as the anode material for potassium ion battery with reversible specific capacity up to 300 mAh g-1, and the corresp

3. Agricultural tractor performance fueled with proportions of biodiesel
ABSTRACT Among the fuel sources used nowadays, biofuels stand out for being renewable and biodegradable. In this sense, this work aimed to evaluate the performance and smoke opacity of an agricultural tractor in soil tillage activities, depending on the biodiesel blends and the engine rotation. Were used six blends of soy (S) and murumuru (M) biodiesel and s

4. Radially Periodic Metasurface Lenses for Magnetic Field Collimation in Resonant Wireless Power Transfer Applications
Abstract In this paper, a new procedure and topology of magnetic metasurface lens are proposed for improving the performance of Resonant Wireless Power Transfer systems. Firstly, three subwave-length unit cells are optimized in order to get negative magnetic permeability in the same frequency, each one with a different refractive index, and they are experime

11. Acid matrix production from treated natural vermiculite-hydrobiotite
Abstract Given the potential of acid-activated clays in adsorptive and catalytic processes, several studies focusing on acid matrices have grown over the years, making it possible to study vermiculite, a mineral composed of a type 2:1 unit cell with tetrahedral and octahedral sheets. Therefore, this work aimed to study vermiculite treated with acids for the
