1. TECHNICAL AND ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY OF USING A VARIABLE-FREQUENCY DRIVE IN MICRO-IRRIGATION SYSTEMS
ABSTRACT Irrigation is essential for the development of crops in regions with scarcity or irregular rainfall distribution, enabling high productivity. However, the use of water resources and electrical energy leads to a concern with irrigation efficiency. Pressure demand varies during the operations of irrigation systems and the appropriate pressure can be r

2. Integrated project of a smart microgrid allied with energy management: An initiative to reduce electrical energy costs
Abstract Electricity is undoubtedly one of the most important resources in the modern world. As the demand for electric energy increases, conventional resources that are transformed into electric energy are being exhausted, generating a need to search for alternative sources, resulting in a significant increase in energy costs. This study presents an integra

3. Assessment of the Potential Implementation of Solar Energy Generation in State Schools in Curitiba/PR
ABSTRACT Solar energy as a form of electric power generation is gaining ground in Brazil, being the subject of worldwide discussions on sustainability. The electric energy, a right of all citizens, represents a consumption of natural resources on a large scale. State schools in Paraná invested more than R$ 46 million to guarantee electricity and thus provid

4. ASSESSMENT OF CO2 EMISSION MITIGATION FOR A BRAZILIAN OIL REFINERY
Abstract Currently the oil refining sector is responsible for approximately 5% of the total Brazilian energy related CO2 emissions. Possibilities to reduce CO2 emissions and related costs at the largest Brazilian refinery have been estimated. The abatement costs related to energy saving options are negative, meaning that feasibility exists without specific i

5. Facile Graphene Oxide Preparation by Microwave-Assisted Acid Method
Few-layered graphene oxide (GO) was prepared using a fast and energy-saving method by microwave-assisted acid technique. The oxygenated groups existing on the GO surface were determined using UV-Vis, X-ray photoelectron and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopies. An oxygenated group percentage of 30% in mass for the GO was observed by thermogravimetric an

6. Effect of electron beam irradiation on the mechanical properties of buriti fiber
Natural fibers, mainly those lignocellulosic extracted from plants, have, in the past few decades, attracted the attention not only of scientists but also of industrial technologists of our society interested in their engineering materials. As it is well known, uses of natural fiber in clothes carpets, baskets, ropes and low cost construction roofing has exi

7. Conforto termico nos espaços de transição e sua influencia como elemento apaziguador do microclima local / The thermal comfort in transitional spaces and its influence as an appeaser of the local microclimate
Transitional areas have specificities due to their constructive characteristics and to the way in which these spaces are influenced by the outdoor climate and the building which they belong to. There are few studies on this issue in Brazil. It´s accepted that in hot environments regions, these areas can minimize the users thermal impact in the transition in
