Currently there is no domestic gas oven commercialized in Brazil that utilizes a swirl flame. In the tests performed during the PHASE 1 of this project, using simple burner prototypes, the use of swirlers resulted in an energetic efficiency of 71%. This value is 6% above the most efficient in the Brazilian market (67%) (71/67 is 1.06).To improve the models that presented the highest effi…
Agro-industries and the supply and distribution chain produced globally a large amount of residues. If these residues are released to the environment, without proper disposal or recycling procedure, they cause environmental pollution and harmful effects on human and animal health. Most of the agro-industrial residues are untreated or underutilized; consequently, in maximum, they are dispo…

Vehicle emission regulations worldwide have limits for pollutants such as hydrocarbons, CO and NOx. Greenhouse gases and NH3 have also been the subject of some regulations regarding the industrial sector. In this context, an absolute necessity is a rapid and accurate method for analyzing exhaust gases. The research project carried out by the Scientific Initiation fellow in Brazil involves…
