13. AVALIAÇÃO DE CARACTERÍSTICAS DE BIODIESEIS DE FONTES ALTERNATIVAS SUBMETIDOS A CONDIÇÕES DE ARMAZENAGEM DIFERENCIADA
Biodiesel is an alternative fuel obtained from different biomass sources and processes. Nowadays, this biofuel has gained importance due to environmental concerns and rising energy demand. In the biodiesel production chain, stability is a critical issue, as it is linked to the maintenance of its original properties. This work performed a study evaluating the

14. On the Machinability and Surface Finish of Superalloy GH909 Under Dry Cutting Conditions
GH 909 alloy is a kind of low thermal expansion superalloy with high strength and low expansion coefficient. It is mainly used for manufacturing of aero-engine turbine casings, sealing ring, vanes and other gap control parts, to improve the working efficiency and thrust of the engine as well as to reduce gas loss and fuel consumption. However, the machinabil

15. Fine and Coarse Aerosol at Rio de Janeiro prior to the Olympic Games: Chemical Composition and Source Apportionment
During the period from June 2012 to June 2013, the concentrations and chemical composition of PM2.5 and PM2.5-10 (particulate matter with a diameter of 2.5 μm or less and between 2.5 and 10 μm, respectively) were monitored at four sampling points in the Rio de Janeiro metropolitan area, and two of the points were in close proximity to the 2016 Olympic Game

16. QUALITY OF MECHANICAL SOYBEAN HARVESTING AT TWO TRAVEL SPEEDS
ABSTRACT: Soybean harvesting is the last operation performed in the field and therefore has high added value. Quantitative losses during this process should therefore be minimized to achieve maximum quality and increase the sustainability of the production system. The aim of the present study was to determine and characterize the quantitative losses and oper

18. Influence of Water and Ultraviolet Irradiation on the Induction Period of the Oxidation of Biodiesel
Biodiesel degrades due to oxidative processes, causing a decrease in its quality. In the present work, it has been clearly shown that the incidence of ultraviolet radiation on biodiesels obtained from soy, canola, linseed and microalgae oils initiate oxidative processes which lead to the decrease in the induction period (IP) of the fuel. The influence of the

19. THE BRAZILIAN EXPERIENCE WITH ETHANOL FUEL: ASPECTS OF PRODUCTION, USE, QUALITY AND DISTRIBUTION LOGISTICS
Abstract The reduction in the availability of fossil fuel increased the search for alternative fuel sources (for example, ethanol). In the Brazilian market, light duty vehicles can be fueled with gasohol (18 up to 27.5 %v/v of anhydrous ethanol in gasoline) and/or hydrous ethanol. To minimize the risk of water-induced phase separation of gasoline-ethanol ble

20. Analysis of combustion efficiency in a pelletizing furnace
Abstract The objective of this research is to assess how much the improvement in the combustion reaction efficiency can reduce fuel consumption, maintaining the same thermal energy rate provided by the reaction in a pelletizing furnace. The furnace for pelletizing iron ore is a complex thermal machine, in terms of energy balance. It contains recirculation fa

21. Comportamiento Tribológico y Microestructural en Recubrimientos Aplicados por GTAW y HVOF (Proceso Térmico de Espreado) y Usado en Recuperación de Aceros Grado Herramienta AISI/SAE D2
Abstract The Fe-Cr-Mo alloys are use in covers to protect the components that are under wear and corrosion. The high velocity thermo spray covering by HVOF (high velocity oxi-fuel) in Fe-Cr-Mo alloys has reported as a good result in projection fields for the steel tool grade for cold work. The HOVF is an attractive method to apply covering and recuperate dia

22. Heating effects on physicochemical characteristics and antioxidant activity of flaxseed hull oil (Linum usitatissimum L)
The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of heating on some quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of flaxseed hull oil. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and Cox value decreased during heating. Heating process led to considerable increase in saponification value (SV), peroxide value (PV), p-anisidine value (p-AnV), oxidative value (OV) an

24. Estudo da cinética de oxidação de biodiesel b100 obtido de óleo de soja e gordura de porco: determinação da energia de ativação
The quality of biodiesel is extremely important for its commercialization and use; oxidation of biodiesel is a critical factor because it decreases the fuel storage time. A commercial biodiesel was mixed with synthetic antioxidants, according to a simplex-centroid experimental mixture design, and its stability was evaluated through induction period and activ
