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. Numerical simulations of ceramic firing in catenary kilns
Abstract Kiln geometries were developed to reach homogeneous temperatures above 900 °C, during the firing process, aiming to improve the production process of the ceramists from Vale do Jequitinhonha (MG/Brazil). Techniques of reactive flow numerical solution using the software Ansys CFX have been used to foresee the behavior of the firings. Two types of ca

3. K2O SUPORTADO EM ZEÓLITA NATURAL: SÍNTESE, CARACTERIZAÇÃO E APLICAÇÃO PRODUÇÃO DE BIODIESEL A PARTIR DO ÓLEO DE GIRASSOL
Biodiesel is a renewable fuel, a substitute for fossil diesel, which is important for reducing GHG in Brazil. Therefore, this work aims to synthesize and characterize the catalyst using the support of natural zeolite impregnated with K2O and apply it in the production of biodiesel through the transesterification reaction. Through the analysis of characteriza

4. The importance of education
Abstract The present research is dedicated to analyzing the addition of sawdust biomass, which is a carbonaceous raw material that may be used in coal blends for the production of metallurgical coke, preserving the required quality, with lower cost. The quality of metallurgical coke may be determined by the efficiency of its chemical, physical and thermal fu

6. Multifunctionality of βCD/Ofloxacin and HPβCD/Ofloxacin Complexes: Improvement of the Antimicrobial Activity and Apoptosis Induction on Lung Adenocarcinoma A549 Cells
The ofloxacin (OFLOX) is a second-generation synthetic antibiotic that can be classified as a multifunctional drug, but is a poorly soluble drug, which influences its efficiency. The inclusion complexes of OFLOX with β-cyclodextrin (βCD) or hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) can improve the chemical characteristics of the drug; however, studies showing

7. Study using a CFD approach of the efficiency of a roof ventilation closure system in a multi-tunnel greenhouse for nighttime microclimate optimization
ABSTRACT The thermal efficiency of naturally ventilated greenhouses is limited due to the permanent exchange of air through the vents, especially during the night hours. The objective of the work consisted in evaluating a system of inflatable air ducts that close the roof vents during the night as a strategy to reduce the energy loss during these hours. For

8. Chitosan Nanoparticles Loaded with Carvacrol and Carvacryl Acetate for Improved Anthelmintic Activity
Carvacrol (CV) and carvacryl acetate (CVA) are bioactive compounds that have anthelmintic action and the nanoencapsulation may be an alternative to potentialize their efficacy. The aim of this work was to nanoencapsulate CV and CVA using chitosan/gums and evaluate cytotoxicity and the anthelmintic activity. A 24 factorial experimental design was performed to

9. INTERFERENCE OF THE NUMBER OF REMOTE CONTROL VALVES IN USE ON THE ENERGY PERFORMANCE OF AN AGRICULTURAL TRACTOR WITH PRODUCTIVITY MANAGEMENT
ABSTRACT The hydraulic remote control system allows the transfer of energy from the engine through a flow of hydraulic oil to engines and implements pulled by agricultural tractors, which can interfere with its energy and operational performance. This study aimed to evaluate the interference of the number of remote control valves in use on the operational an

10. Glass Formation of Null-Matrix Cu-Hf-(Zr, Ti) Alloys
An approach following the null-matrix, Ti/Zr ratio of 2.08, for neutron diffraction was used to calculate the glass formation in Cu-Ti-(Hf,Zr) alloys. The Cu55Zr14.6Ti30.4, Cu61.48Hf18.52Zr6.48Ti13.52, Cu58.1Hf16.9Zr8.1Ti16.9 and Cu52.46Hf14.2Zr10.8Ti22.54 compositions (at. %), were calculated and prepared by argon arc melting. Copper die suction casting was

11. Cross-linked coacervates of cashew gum and gelatin in the encapsulation of pequi oil
RESUMO: O óleo de pequi é rico em compostos bioativos, os quais podem ser encapsulados para aumentar a proteção a fatores extrínsecos. A tecnologia de microencapsulamento, além de retardar a degradação do composto ativo, possibilita mascarar aromas e sabores indesejáveis. A coacervação complexa é uma técnica baseada na interação eletrostátic
