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. Characterization of Commercially Available Turmeric for Use in Pharmaceutical Products and Food Supplements
We addressed some physicochemical and biological differences in commercial turmeric, acquired from both handling pharmacies and stores selling natural products for quality assessment. For this, it was determined the melting point, antioxidant activity by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH), antimicrobial activity via the agar disk-diffusion assay,

5. Steel desulfurization on RH degasser: physical and mathematical modeling
Abstract Due to the high-quality steel demand, especially for ultra-low Sulfur steel, RH desulfurization has been practiced. Based on this, mathematical and physical modeling have been applied to study steel desulfurization by reagent addition in the RH degasser vacuum chamber. The main result of cold modeling, using water and oil emulating steel and slag, r

6. Production of nanostructured crystalline composite using residual ashes from flocculated sludge burning process in a poultry slaughterhouse wastewater treatment system
Abstract Nanostructured crystalline composite (activated carbon) was synthesized from residual ashes of the burning process of the sludge generated in the flotation step of a poultry slaughterhouse and was used for Allura red dye adsorption. The ashes were chemically activated using two types of reagents, H2O2 and H3PO4, and the structure, morphology, and su

7. Domains of quality of life in Alzheimer’s disease vary according to caregiver kinship
Abstract Introduction Compared to other types of caregiver, spouse-caregivers tend to be closer to people with Alzheimer’s disease (PwAD) because of their different position in the relationship. We designed this study to compare the differences in caregivers’ quality of life (QoL) and domains of QoL according to the kinship relationship between the mem

9. Impact of Continuing Education on the Quality of Blood Pressure Measurement
The properties of lanthanides allow them to be used as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging, thereby helping to differentiate between tissues, organs, and pathologies more efficiently. Lanthanides contain thermosensitive energy levels that aid identification of cancer and healthy cells. This work investigates the GdVO4 matrix obtained by the non-hy

11. DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF FLC APPLIED TO A SMART GREENHOUSE
ABSTRACT Greenhouse cultivation needs an accurate modelling and an optimised control system to ensure an adequate microclimatic condition for plants. It represents a complex task due to the high number of input factors. For this reason, an improved intermediate modelling was established under the platform of the MATLAB/Simulink environment to simulate the en

12. Strategies used to control the costs of underground ventilation in some Brazilian mines
Abstract In an underground mine, the ventilation is responsible for 25% to 50% of its electrical energy consumption. In countries such as South Africa, United States and Canada researchers have started to achieve a significant reduction in energy consumption without neglecting aspects of the quantity and quality of air required for the best performance of th
