1. Exergy and emergy: complementary tools for assessing the environmental sustainability use of biosolids generated in wastewater-treatment plant for energy-production
Taking advantage of the energy contained in the biosolids generated in a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) is one of the processes of greatest interest due to the opportunity to obtain an energy resources from a waste. The aim of this research was to analyze the environmental sustainability use of biosolids generated in a wastewater-treatment plant for energ

2. QUALITY, PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS, MASS TRANSFER PARAMETERS AND MODELING OF DRYING KINETICS OF SOYBEAN
Abstract Different aspects of soybean drying such as energy and exergy analyses, quality, mass transfer parameters, and modeling of drying kinetics were investigated in a microwave dryer. Results showed that energy and exergy efficiency increased with increasing microwave power, while values of energy efficiency (33.70 to 66.0%) were higher than exergy effic

3. Estudos de processos avançados em geração termelétrica utilizando leitos fluidizados consumindo biomassa / Advanced studies on power generation processes based on fluidized beds consuming biomass
A study aiming maximizing the efficiency of an advanced combined power generation process has been developed. The process applies a pressurized fluidized bed boiler consuming sugar cane bagasse fed as slurry. The generated steam is diverted to a reheated Rankine cycle while the gas exiting the boiler is directed to a gas turbine process. Many assumptions hav

9. Avaliação exergética dos efluentes do processo industrial do álcool / Exergetic assessment of effluents in the industrial alcohol process
In the production of ethyl alcohol as a fuel, the sugar and alcohol industry captures large volumes of water for steam generation, for cooling and as part of the process, generating large amounts of effluents. Using the energy produced by the burning of bagasse in the furnace for the transformation of water into steam, the industry generates its own electric

10. A Energia Térmica e o Paradoxo da Eficiência Energética: Desafios para um Novo Modelo de Planejamento Energético / The Thermal Energy and the Energy Efficiency Paradox: Challenges for a New Paradigm of Energy Planning
The electrical generation model of Brazil has a peculiar characteristic regarding other countries. Its large hydropower capacity allowed the indiscriminate use of the electricity for several kinds of end uses. However, with the transition of the hydroelectric generation model for a mixed generation model, a new paradigm of energy efficiency appears. The elec

11. Avaliação de sustentabilidade aplicada ao biodiesel
In this work the biodiesel fuel production chain was analyzed with respect to its sustainability. The biodiesel considered in this study was an ethyl esther of soybean oil, produced from degummed soybean oil and anhydrous ethyl alcohol, both derived from renewable resources (soybean and sugarcane). The production system of this liquid fuel was investigated b

12. Analise termodinamica de colunas de destilação visando a otimização energetica
The aim of this work was to develop a procedure for reduction of energy requirement of distillation columns, by a combined energy-exergy analysis approach. In the energy analysis method, the reversible column profile is used to describe heat requirementlrejection along the column. Scope for the use of intermediate heat sources/sinks and reflux reduction can
