2. Performance analysis of the beneficiation process of bauxite from the Juruti Mine. Industrial sampling and performance evaluation
Abstract Sampling campaigns were conducted at the industrial bauxite wash circuit of the Juruti Bauxite Mine in Pará, Brazil. The beneficiation circuit consisted of crushing, scrubber washing, wet screening, hydrocyclone classification, and fltration. Considering laboratory processing of samples and statistical analyses of historical operation databases, ma

3. Forced-air warming and continuous core temperature monitoring with zero-heat-flux thermometry during cesarean section: a retrospective observational cohort study
Abstract Background: Over 30% of parturients undergoing spinal anesthesia for cesarean section become intraoperatively hypothermic. This study assessed the magnitude of hypothermic insult in parturients and newborns using continuous, high-resolution thermometry and evaluated the efficiency of intraoperative forced-air warming for prevention of hypothermia.

4. COST OF AERIAL AND GROUND SPRAYINGS AND TECHNOLOGICAL REPLACEMENT POINT: A CASE STUDY IN THE REGION OF MINEIROS, GO, BRAZIL
ABSTRACT One of the main costs in agriculture is related to mechanized operations, which, in turn, are associated with the capital invested in machinery and equipment, the scale of production, and the operating efficiency. Thus, the choice of technology to carry out these operations must take these factors into account to minimize the production cost. In thi

5. 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

6. THEORETICAL ANALYSIS AND EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE PROCESS OF CONVEYING AGRICULTURAL FIBER MATERIALS BY SCREW CONVEYORS
ABSTRACT To improve the conveying efficiency and working stability of a screw conveyor, the feeding methods, running conditions and flow characteristics of materials were studied by theoretical analysis and experiments. The theoretical analysis results show that the screw conveyor runs more stably when the helix angle of the screw blade is equal to the movin

8. High Efficiency Continuous Inverse Class-F Power Amplifier with Modified Current Waveform
Abstract Continuous inverse class-F (CICF) is a recent mode of harmonically-tuned RF power amplifiers used to extend the operating bandwidth of the conventional narrowband class-F−1 power amplifier by producing variable set of drain current waveforms and load admittances that give the same operating efficiency. In this work, a new approach of analysis is d

10. Analysis and Optimization of Ultra-Low-Power Rectifier with High Efficiency for Applications in Wireless Power Transmission and Energy Harvesting
Abstract The system capable of harvesting RF energy from the environment through an antenna and converting it into direct current energy to deliver to a load is known as rectenna. The rectifier circuit is an important part of the rectenna and its modeling is arduous since it employs a non-linear device working at extremely low power levels. In addition, ther

12. Use of Coffee Capsules as Support Material in Upflow Anaerobic Fixed Bed Reactors
Abstract The aim of this work is to evaluate the performance of upflow anaerobic fixed bed reactors filled with espresso coffee capsules to treat sanitary sewage. Three reactors (R1, R2 and R3) were constructed in blue PVC pipes measuring 30 cm height and 150 mm diameter and filled with coffee capsules made of aluminum and plastic. The sewage from the pre-tr
