13. A Study of the Interaction Between trans-Dehydrocrotonin, a Bioactive Natural 19-nor-Clerodane, and Serum Albumin
The interaction between 19-nor-clerodane trans-dehydrocrotonin (from Croton cajucara Benth.) and bovine serum albumin was studied, applying spectroscopic techniques (fluorescence and circular dichroism), combined with molecular modeling. Fluorescence quenching of albumin by the nor-clerodane (kq ca. 1011 mol L-1 s-1 and Stern-Volmer, KSV, increase with tempe

14. Assessment of the Ti-Rich Corner of the Ti-Si Phase Diagram: The Recent Dispute About the Eutectoid Reaction
Abstract The thermodynamic optimization of Ti-Si-X systems requires that their respective binary systems are constantly updated. The Ti-Si system has been experimentally investigated since the 1950s and these critical experimental data can be employed to calculate the Ti-Si phase diagram using thermodynamic modeling. The most recent assessment of the Ti-Si s

15. LIQUID-LIQUID EQUILIBRIUM FOR TERNARY SYSTEMS CONTAINING ETHYLIC BIODIESEL + ANHYDROUS ETHANOL + REFINED VEGETABLE OIL (SUNFLOWER OIL, CANOLA OIL AND PALM OIL): EXPERIMENTAL DATA AND THERMODYNAMIC MODELING
Abstract Phase equilibria of the reaction components are essential data for the design and process operations of biodiesel production. Despite their importance for the production of ethylic biodiesel, the reaction mixture, reactant (oil and ethanol) and the product (fatty acid ethyl esters) up to now have received less attention than the corresponding system

16. Nickel-based Catalyst Precursor Prepared Via Microwave-induced Combustion Method: Thermodynamics of Synthesis and Performance in Dry Reforming of CH4
Nickel-based catalyst precursor for dry reforming of methane was successfully prepared by a self-combustion method. Three different amino acids: urea, glycine and citric acid were tested as fuels in the redox reaction with metal nitrates. For each fuel, a thermodynamic modeling of the combustion reaction was performed. The samples were characterized by X-ray

17. Damage based constitutive model for predicting the performance degradation of concrete
An anisotropic elastic-damage coupled constitutive model for plain concrete is developed, which describes the concrete performance degradation. The damage variable, related to the surface density of micro-cracks and micro-voids, and represented by a second order tensor, is governed by the principal tension strain components. For adequately describing the par

18. Thermodynamic modeling of ternary liquid-liquid systems with forming immiscibility islands
The aim of this work was to study the application of a stochastic algorithm to correlate the experimental data of island-type systems in ternary systems. Thermodynamic NRTL and UNIQUAC models were used to evaluate the activity coefficients. Results regarding the application of the stochastic algorithm were in good agreement with those presented in the curren

19. Solid-liquid equilibrium data of amoxicillin and hydroxyphenylglycine in aqueous media
The enzymatic synthesis of amoxicillin is catalyzed by Penicillin G Acylase (PGA). As byproducts, hydroxyphenylglycine and alcohol are also formed from hydrolytic reactions and antibiotic synthesis, respectively. The design of this process should be directed to promote the synthesis reaction. At the same time, it is necessary to reduce the hydrolytic reactio

20. Modelagem cinética da esterificação de sec-butanol com ácido acético e estudo de monitoramento em linha da reação com espectroscopia de infravermelho. / Kinetic modeling of esterification of sec-butanol with acetic acid and study of reaction on-line monitoring using near infrared spectroscopy.
A esterificação do sec-butanol com ácido acético, submetida à catálise homogênea, apresenta poucos resultados experimentais de cinética reacional e equilíbrio químico disponíveis na literatura. A presente dissertação visa determinar os parâmetros cinéticos e de equilíbrio químico desta reação de esterificação, empregando modelo cinético

21. Studying transmission of fuel storage bank to NGV cylinder in CNG fast filling station
The exact modeling of the fast-fill process of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) fueled storage bank occurring to Compressed Natural Gas Vehicle (NGV) cylinders is an unintelligible process, and should be thoroughly studied. In this paper, a theoretical model based on mass balance and thermodynamic laws has been developed to study dynamic fast filling process of

22. Investigation of asphaltene precipitation in miscible gas injection processes: experimental study and modeling
Asphaltene precipitation during natural depletion and miscible gas injection is a common problem in oilfields throughout the world. In this work, static precipitation tests are conducted to investigate the effects of pressure, temperature and gas type and concentration on asphaltene instability. Three different oil samples have been studied under reservoir c

23. Modelagem termodinâmica do equilíbrio de fases entre componentes graxos e dióxido de carbono supercrítico / Thermodynamic modeling of phase equilibria between fatty components and supercritical carbon dioxide
Corrigiu-se empiricamente o parâmetro a da equação de estado de Peng-Robinson para o CO2 em função da temperatura e pressão, para que a equação pudesse calcular corretamente a fugacidade do dióxido de carbono em condições supercríticas. Em princípio, o intuito foi verificar se a modelagem termodinâmica com esta correção poderia correlacionar

The ethanol, also known as bioethanol, shows positive characteristics for being used as a large scale fuel, mainly because of the relatively low cost, low pollutant impact compared to fossil fuels and its feasibility of being produced from a renewable matrix through fermentation of vegetable origin products. The conventional fermentation process is typically
