1. High Conversion of Palm Olein to Ethyl Esters Using a Strong Anion Exchange Resin: Study of the Operational Parameters
Biodiesel, known as a mixture of fatty acid ethyl/methyl esters, is seen as an alternative, ecofriendly, biodegradable and renewable non-fossil fuel. The use of heterogeneous catalysts for biodiesel synthesis can solve several problems associated with the homogeneous alkaline catalyzed-transesterification. Therefore, this work reports the evaluation of the c

2. Determination of Methanol in Gasoline and Ethanol Fuels by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography
Gasoline and ethanol fuels have been adulterated with methanol in Brazil. Methanol is not permitted in concentrations greater than 0.5 vol% due its toxicity but its lower price stimulates the adulteration. A new approach for quantitative analysis of methanol in gasoline and ethanol fuels is reported employing high-performance liquid chromatography coupled wi

3. ANÁLISE DE AMOSTRAS DE COMBUSTÍVEIS POR FOTOMETRIA, NIR PORTÁTIL E RMN DE 1H - UMA COMPARAÇÃO COM OS RESULTADOS ENCONTRADOS POR TÉCNICAS NORMATIZADAS
It has been recurring adulterations in fuels (such as gasoline, ethanol and diesel), being necessary the exploration of the use of more modern analytical techniques capable of controlling the quality of these fuels, since some regulated tests may be inefficient to detect the adulteration. Among them, it is highlighted proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NM

4. INFLUÊNCIA DA COMPOSIÇÃO DOS NANOFIOS PT-IR/C NA ATIVIDADE CATALÍTICA FRENTE A OXIDAÇÃO ELETROQUÍMICA DE ETANOL EM MEIO ÁCIDO
Carbon-supported platinum-iridium nanowire-shape electrocatalysts containing 20% of metallic loading were synthesized by chemical reduction method using formic acid as a reducing agent and tested towards the oxidation of ethanol in acidic medium. The developed electrocatalysts were synthesized with the following compositions: Pt0.9Ir0.1/C, Pt0.8Ir0.2/C, Pt0.

9. Comparative Study on Catalytic Dehydration of Glycerol with Alcohols
A comparative study of glycerol dehydration with alcohols (methanol, ethanol, tert-butyl alcohol) over ion exchange resin Amberlyst-35 was performed. The effect of catalyst amounts (1-15 wt.% to glycerol), reaction temperature (50-100 ºC), reaction time (5-10 h), and the molar ratio of alcohols to glycerol (3:1-8:1) were carried out in 50 mL stainless steel

10. Evaluating the Electrochemical Characteristics of Babassu Coconut Mesocarp Ethanol Produced to Be Used in Fuel Cells
The aim of the present study is to assess the potential of ethanol deriving from the mesocarp of babassu coconut to be used in fuel cells. Babassu ethanol was generated through hydrolysis and fermentation processes. The Pt, PtRh and PtRu electrodes were prepared in carbon Vulcan XC72R through the reduction method and applied as electrocatalysts in ethanol ox

11. Identification of Ethyl and t-Butyl Glyceryl Ethers Using Gas Chromatography Coupled with Mass Spectrometry
The ethers produced through the etherification reaction of glycerol with ethanol or t-butanol are used as oxygenated fuel additives, intermediates in the pharmaceutical industry, and non-ionic surfactants. However, the identification of these ethers has not been accurately done, because only some mass spectra of these compounds are available in the libraries
