1. SYNTHESIS OF TOLUENE DIISOCYANATE URETHANE PREPOLYMER USING CASTOR OIL AND EVALUATION OF MECHANICAL PROPERTIES
This research is the synthesis of urethane prepolymer cast elastomer which had been produced using toluene diisocyanate and castor oil to replace the synthetic polyol, from petroleum origin, and the evaluation of mechanical properties of the polyurethane. The focus was to replace polyol from petroleum to vegetable material looking for renewable resources. Th

2. Diesel-Like Biofuels Production Using Fatty Waste
According to the waste-to-energy (WTE) valorization and circular economy principles, the use of waste oil and grease (WOG) for obtaining biofuels shows the tendency towards sustainability, makes the interest in green chemistry, and the development of environmentally friendly processes grow. Three different fatty wastes (from the fat trap of a sewage station,

3. Biomarkers in Source Rocks from Barreirinha Formation (Devonian): Distribution and Paleoenvironment Significance
The Barreirinha Formation-Upper Devonian, is the main petroleum source rock of the Amazon Basin, deposited during the great Devonian Transgression, contributing to significant accumulations of organic matter (OM) in anoxic conditions, which allowed its preservation. The present work had the objective of characterizing the molecular composition of biomarkers

4. The Stabilization of Asphaltenes in Different Crude Fractions: A Molecular Approach
The conditions of petroleum extraction may allow asphaltenes to precipitate, causing deposition that clogs wells, pipes and equipment, consequently reducing productivity. In this work, the solubility parameters and precipitation onset of polar fractions of heavy crudes from Brazilian fields were estimated using a simplified system of n-heptane/toluene mixtur

5. 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

6. Isotopic Analysis of Sugarcane/Petroleum Polyethylene Blends: A Perspective on the Application of Stable Isotope Method (δ13C)
In the present work, we propose the application of stable isotope analysis (δ13C) as an auxiliary tool for the inspection of sugarcane/petroleum polyethylene blends. Our results are supported from the analysis of selected samples by accelerator mass spectrometry (14C-AMS). From the results, it was concluded that the δ13C method is suitable to discriminate

7. Utilization of ferronickel slag in hot mix asphalt
Abstract The growing concern in minimizing the disorderly disposal of waste in nature has been influencing measures that seek to give new environmentally sustainable and economically viable purposes for these materials. The use of steel slag aggregate in road paving emerges as an alternative for reducing the storage of this material in industrial yards, as w

8. HEAT-APPLICATOR MACHINE FOR WEED CONTROL
ABSTRACT Pesticide environmental risks and increased weed resistance have encouraged studies for alternatives to herbicides. Among these are weed thermal control methods by controlled heat application machines. Thus, this study aimed to test a prototype of heat-applicator machine as a function of changes in gas pressure, travel speed, and tire traffic effect

10. Phytochemical Analysis, Multi-Element Composition and Biological Activities of Extracts and Lupenone from Albizia inundata (Mart.) Barneby & J.W.Grimes
In this study, antimicrobial activity of extracts and lupenone from A. inundata (Fabaceae, Mimosoideae), were tested. In addition, the multi-element composition of the leaves, bark and stems (heartwood) of A. inundata was evaluated using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES). Lupenone was isolated in the petroleum ether extract o

11. Effect of high petroleum coke additions on metallurgical coke quality and optical texture
Abstract The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of high additions of petroleum coke on the rheological properties of coking coal and the quality of cokes produced on pilot scale at the Usiminas R&D Center. For this purpose, blends using petroleum coke additions of 5%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% were produced. The results showed that the ble

12. Determination of Copper and Cadmium in Petroleum Produced Formation Water by Electrothermal Atomic Absorption Spectrometry after Cloud Point Extraction
Cloud point extraction (CPE) in association with graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GF AAS) was proposed for preconcentration and quantification of trace amounts of copper and cadmium in samples of saline produced formation water from petroleum exploration. The procedure was based on the formation of hydrophobic complexes of the analytes with 1
