1. Agricultural tractor performance fueled with proportions of biodiesel
ABSTRACT Among the fuel sources used nowadays, biofuels stand out for being renewable and biodegradable. In this sense, this work aimed to evaluate the performance and smoke opacity of an agricultural tractor in soil tillage activities, depending on the biodiesel blends and the engine rotation. Were used six blends of soy (S) and murumuru (M) biodiesel and s

2. SALICILATOS COMO INIBIDORES DO PROCESSO OXIDATIVO MEDIADO POR COBRE E FERRO NO BIODIESEL B100
Biodiesel is a renewable fuel produced from vegetable oils and animal fats transesterification. However, due to its chemical characteristics, it is susceptible to oxidation causing losses to its manufacturers and users. In this work a series of salicylates were synthesized and employed as secondary antioxidants in biodiesel B100. The accelerated oxidation te

3. K2O SUPORTADO EM ZEÓLITA NATURAL: SÍNTESE, CARACTERIZAÇÃO E APLICAÇÃO PRODUÇÃO DE BIODIESEL A PARTIR DO ÓLEO DE GIRASSOL
Biodiesel is a renewable fuel, a substitute for fossil diesel, which is important for reducing GHG in Brazil. Therefore, this work aims to synthesize and characterize the catalyst using the support of natural zeolite impregnated with K2O and apply it in the production of biodiesel through the transesterification reaction. Through the analysis of characteriza

4. 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

5. Mathematical Modeling of the Transesterification Reaction by Finite Elements: Optimization of Kinetic Parameters Using the Simplex Sequential Method
The use of biodiesel as fuel has been presented as a viable alternative in the search for renewable energies. It can be produced from the transesterification reaction of vegetable oils with methanol in the presence of sodium or potassium hydroxide as catalysts. In the present research, the transesterification reaction of soybean oil was modeled considering t

6. Simulação computacional de dispositivos de mistura em câmara de combustão para gases de carbonização
Resumo O carvão vegetal proveniente de florestas plantadas é uma fonte de energia renovável utilizada na siderurgia do Brasil, todavia, em sua produção há liberação do gás de pirólise, que pode ser considerado um gás com baixo poder calorífico inferior. A sustentabilidade da produção de carvão vegetal tem demandado a queima destes gases, poden

7. Can China's Green Socialism transform global capitalism?
Resumo: Na última década, a China deu um salto espetacular para se tornar o principal usuário e fabricante de energia eólica e solar. Mas seu compromisso com o combustível fóssil ainda supera a energia renovável. O artigo traçará o crescimento da energia limpa e da indústria de carvão e petróleo, no mercado interno da China, bem como em seus inve

9. Life cycle analysis of HCNG light-duty vehicle demonstration project
ABSTRACT The demonstration is an effective initiative to bridge the gap between a premature technology and its large-scale commercialization. A systematic method of LCA was used to perform the well-to-wheel analysis of a CNG light-duty truck operated with 0%, 15%, and 30% blends of hydrogen with compressed natural gas fuel under the system boundary of “per

12. Characterization of the Physicochemical Properties of Different Biodiesel Samples
ABSTRACT For combustion engines to perform well, it is necessary that the fuel used be of high quality. Fuel quality can be analyzed through different physicochemical properties. This study presents comparisons between the values presented in literature, legislation and those obtained through experimental tests of different biodiesel samples. Biodiesel is a
