1. Thermal and Catalytic Fast Pyrolysis of Oily Extracts of Microalgae: Production of Biokerosene
Three different microalgae species, Desmodesmus sp., Nannochloropsis oculata and Halamphora coffeaeformis were grown under controlled conditions. The resulting dry biomass was characterized by TG-DTA (thermogravimetry-differential thermal analysis) and extracted with three solvents having different polarities. The extracts gross mass yields varied from 2% us

2. Sustainable production of furfural and 5-hidroximetilfurfural from rice husks and soybean peel by using ionic liquid
Abstract In the current search for renewable energy sources, residual biomass has been highlighted as a potential source of chemical compounds that are currently obtained from petroleum. Among the derivatives obtained from this, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and furfural are considered key parts in this process as they are key compounds in the fine chemical indust

3. STUDYING THE GRAMMAGE IN LVL PANELS GLUED WITH CASTOR OIL-BASED POLYURETHANE ADHESIVE: A POSSIBLE ALTERNATIVE TO FORMALDEHYDE RELEASING ADHESIVES.
ABSTRACT Efforts have been done in order to decrease the human dependence on petroleum materials. This idea can be applied for wood adhesives and wood products. This study proposes to evaluate laminated veneer lumber (LVL) panels of Hevea brasiliensis produced with castor oil-based polyurethane and resorcinol formaldehyde in different grammages. Six rubber t

5. Produção de ácido lático em meio à base de efluentes da indústria de alimentos por cultura láctea mista imobilizada
Resumo O ácido polilático (PLA), o mais conhecido bioplástico com potencial para ser o substituto dos polímeros derivados do petróleo, é produzido pela polimerização do ácido lático. A aplicação do ácido lático para a produção de ácido polilático tem levado a um aumento substancial no seu consumo. Entretanto, o custo da matéria-prima repre

6. Microstructural, thermochemistry and mechanical evaluation of self-reducing pellets using electric arc furnace (EAF) dust containing zinc for Waelz process
ABSTRACT The increment of recycling of steel using electric arc furnace and the tendency to coat of steel products with zinc, in order to prevent corrosion, has increased the proportion of galvanized scrap used worldwide in the recent years. Approximately 10 to 20 Kg/t of cast steel is generated in casting arcs. These collected dusts electric arc furnace (EA

7. An integrated optimization and simulation model for refinery planning including external loads and product evaluation
Abstract Because of its potential benefits, petroleum refineries are increasingly concerned about their planning operations. Although some refinery models for production planning were proposed, they are quite limited in their usefulness. This study describes an integrated approach involving nonlinear optimization and simulation of refinery units in order to

8. Green polyurethane synthesis by emulsion technique: a magnetic composite for oil spill removal
Abstract After the consolidation of the Brazilian biodiesel industry, issues related to the final destination of the glycerin, the by-product from the biodiesel industrial process, drawing the attention of several researchers. There are several uses to this byproduct. Among them, the obtaining of polymers, such as polyurethane (PU), are very encouraged since

9. Degradation of monoaromatics by Bacillus pumilus MVSV3
ABSTRACT Monoaromatics, such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (BTEX), are simple aromatic compound that are highly toxic due to their high solubility nature. Many chemical and physical methods for their degradation and breakup into nontoxic products are available, but still use of microorganism is preferred over these processes. In this present s

10. Evaluation of bacterial diversity recovered from petroleum samples using different physical matrices
ABSTRACT Unraveling the microbial diversity and its complexity in petroleum reservoir environments has been a challenge throughout the years. Despite the techniques developed in order to improve methodologies involving DNA extraction from crude oil, microbial enrichments using different culture conditions can be applied as a way to increase the recovery of D

11. Social, technical-economic, environmental and political assessment for the evaluation of transport modes for petroleum products
AbstractDistribution becomes the main link in a supply chain when transport efficiency is concerned. Being a huge size country, transport related problems in Brazil should be treated through the application of new information technology and more efficient logistic tools. This paper evaluates ducts and railway modes by the complete cost methodology to find th

12. Solving ethanol production problems with genetically modified yeast strains
The current world demand for bioethanol is increasing as a consequence of low fossil fuel availability and a growing number of ethanol/gasoline flex-fuel cars. In addition, countries in several parts of the world have agreed to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, and the use of ethanol as a fuel (which produces fewer pollutants than petroleum products) has been
