- PRODUCTION, CAPTURE, PURIFICATION AND STORAGE OF BIOGAS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF GREEN HYDROGEN, BIOMETHANE AND BIOGENIC CO2: BIOENERGY AND APPLICATIONS IN THE FOOD INDUSTRY, AP.R
Abstract
The production, capture, purification and storage of biogas for the production of green hydrogen (bio_H2), biomethane (bio_CH4) and biogenic carbon dioxide (CO2), is directly related to sustainability and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions as it uses organic waste. Biogas obtained from Anaerobic Digestion (AD) can be purified (Upgrading) to produce bio_H2, bio_CH4, biogenic CO2 and…
- Assessing Microbial Robustness in Yeast and Contaminant Bacteria from Bioethanol Biorefineries, AP.R SPRINT
Abstract
Innovative approaches integrating microbial physiology and synthetic biology are required to address the industrial challenges to enhance yeast robustness and fermentation performance. A promising strategy involves the use of genetically encoded fluorescent biosensors, enabling real-time monitoring of intracellular stress responses, including pH fluctuations, ATP depletion, oxidative stre…
- Rethinking cellulose lightweight materials: how to build flexible cellular structures without deconstructing the lignocellulosic complex?, AP.JP
Abstract
CCellulose materials with very low density are produced using costly techniques like freeze-drying and supercritical drying, limiting their practical applications. Foam-forming is an alternative method for producing cellulose foams using oven-drying. However, even with improvements, cellulose foams are unlikely to match the performance to replace plastic foams in many applications, as pro…

- IV Workshop Rewardand Stress, AO.R
- The role of alternative oxidases in Trypanosomatidae, AV.EXT
Abstract
Trypanosomatids are deficient in some of the components of the Complex I of the respiratory chain. This would limit the cell ability to re-oxidize NADH to keep an adequate ratio NAD+/NADH, which in turn is critical for a normal functionality of critical metabolic pathways, such as glycolysis or the oxidation of some amino acids. However, the functionality of the other complexes of the ele…
- KINETIC STUDY OF BIOMASS DOPED WITH CATALYSTS UNDER THE EFFECT OF MICROWAVES AND DEVELOPMENT OF COMPUTATIONAL MODELS, AV.EXT
Abstract
Currently, a research project is being developed in collaboration with Prof. Dr. Pedro Miguel Rebelo Resende, with the aforementioned title which is in the process of being sent for consideration by Fapesp. The objective of this project will be to carry out an in-depth study of agricultural and/or forestry residues from Brazil and Portugal, in a microwave-assisted catalytic pyrolysis proc…

- ANTIFUNGAL ACTIVITY OF PROPOLIS ON PLANKTONIC AND SESSILE CELLS OF Candida tropicalis., BP.IC
Abstract
Candida tropicalis is an important species that gives rise, among other conditions, to candidemia, and is characterized by its high associated mortality rate. It is considered one of the most virulent species of the genus, with a hallmark feature of C. tropicalis infections being the formation of biofilms on various surfaces of medical devices and implants, such as catheters, artificial h…
- Reaction of sugarcane cultivars to Xanthomonas albilineans from different locations, BP.IC
Abstract
Leaf scald disease, a vascular disease of sugarcane caused by the bacterium Xanthomonas albilineans, has been causing great impact, affecting cane production, life span, and industrial quality of raw material. One of the main traits of the disease is latent infection, which leads to asymptomatic canes to be used as propagating materials for sugarcane field reform, the main inoculum source…
- One-pot conversion of furfural over acid ZSM-5, beta and USY zeolites - Activity and selectivity to value-added molecules as a function of their textural and acid Properties, BP.PD
Abstract
As well known, most of the fuels applied to produce energy and chemicals or intermediates use petroleum, natural gas, or mineral carbon as raw materials. The use of these fossil materials has been responsible for the strong environmental contamination and for the dramatic global warming. For that reason, it will be urgently necessary to find alternative sustainable sources, also known as …

- Development of microneedle patches containing Pterodon pubescens Benth extract and Cordia verbenacea DC essential oil with anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive potential, BE.EP.DR
Abstract
Despite being a natural response of the immune system, the inflammatory process may be responsible for the cause or worsening of several syndromes and/or diseases. Nociception is also related to inflammation, since the sensation of pain can be caused by compression of sensory nerves due to oedema and the production of inflammatory mediators. The therapeutic approach used in both cases gen…
- Structural characterization of redox active auto assembling large molecular AhpC complexes from Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus epidermidis using single-particle cryo-EM, BE.EP.DR
Abstract
Multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogenic bacteria have been a serious global public health concern, particularly since the beginning of this century. Bacterial infection stimulates the host's immune system to produce ROS and RNS through the respiratory burst mechanism. ROS are also produced through primary or secondary mechanisms of some antibiotics. To mitigate the oxidants produced by the i…
- Microbial ecology applied to fuel ethanol production from sugarcane, BE.PQ
Abstract
Due to climate change, a major current goal is to transition from non-renewable to renewable energy sources. Among the current options, fuel ethanol (or bioethanol) stands out as a liquid fuel that can be used to propel light vehicles, either as a standalone fuel or mixed with gasoline. Brazil has led the way globally in producing bioethanol since the 1970s, mainly from sugarcane feedsto…

- Biogas Purification Optimization: Evaluation and Characterization of Parameters for Efficient Production of Polymeric Membranes, BE.EP.IC
Abstract
The production of green hydrogen (bio-H2), biomethane (bio-CH4), and biogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) relies on an efficient process of biogas capture, purification, and storage, with the gas separation stage being a key factor in its viability. In this context, the development of advanced polymeric membranes emerges as a promising technological solution, capable of optimizing biogas purific…
- Mathematical Modeling of Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Cocoa residues., BE.EP.IC
Abstract
The enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass is a key step in bioprocesses to obtain sugar platforms for biofuel and bioproducts production. However, its efficiency is often limited by substrate complexity and enzyme accessibility. This BEPE-FAPESP focuses on applying kinetic modeling to describe enzymatic hydrolysis reactions of cocoa pod husks, an abundant and underutilized agro-…
- Artificial neural networks as a surrogate model for simulating biomass enzymatic hydrolysis step, BE.EP.IC
Abstract
Currently, 80% of the global energy consumption comes from fossil fuels. In this context, renewable fuels, or biofuels, provide an environmentally friendly alternative, as they are derived from biomass and can help reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Lignocellulosic feedstocks, which are rich in carbohydrates and relatively low-cost, have emerged as a promising source for biofuel production.…
