Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP). Núcleo Interdisciplinar de Planejamento Energético (NIPE) (Institutional affiliation for the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Degree in Food Engineering, Faculty of Animal Science and Food Engineering - University of São Paulo (2007). MA and PhD in Hydraulic Engineering and Sanitation in the School of Engineering of São Carlos - University of São Paulo (2009 and 2012). She was postdoctoral researcher at the Brazilian Biorenewables National Laboratory (LNBR), with internship research at University of Southern Denmark (SDU). She is currently Associate Coordinator and Researcher of the Interdisciplinary Center of Energy Planning (NIPE) from University of Campinas (Unicamp), permanent professor of the Program of Energy Planning Systems (PSE) of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering (FEM), Unicamp, and professor of the PhD Program in Bioenergy (UNICAMP/UNESP/USP). She has experience on biological treatment of residues, especially related to anaerobic digestion/co-digestion, generation of added value byproducts from the biological process and energy recovery from biogas. Provides consultancy in the field of energy recovery from waste with environmental responsibility. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)
- Annual research plan for use of overhead to institutional research infrastructure - 2019 projects, AP.RT.INST
Abstract
This work plan refers to the application of the portion for institutional infrastructure costs during 2019 awarded to the Interdisciplinary Center for Energy Planning (NIPE) of the State University of Campinas (Unicamp), according to current regulations.

- Biogas production in integrated 1st and 2nd generation sugarcane biorrefineries: fundamentals and operational aspects of the process, AP.R
Abstract
The increase of ethanol productivity and bioenergy generation in sugarcane biorefineries are some alternatives to alleviate the crisis in the sugar-ethanol sector facing the current political-economic scenario of the country. In this scenario, R&D efforts have been concentrated to the 2nd generation ethanol production (2G), obtained from bagasse resulting from the sugarcane milling used...
- Biogas production integrated to the concept of lignocellulosic biomass: operational aspects and use of nanoparticles, BP.DR
Abstract
In the challenging context of the Paris discussion (COP21-2015), biogas production returns to global highlight, and consequently, government and industrial initiatives. Production is performed through Anaerobic Digestion (AD), which allows the recovery of the energy source through the use of methane (CH4), in addition to the possible generation of by-products with value to the agro-indu...
- Biogas production from 1st and 2nd generation and pentoses liquor using experimental planning and response surface methodology, BP.TT
- Anaerobic digestion of vinasse and pentoses liquor in integrated biorefineries of 1st and 2nd generation, BP.PD
Abstract
The growing need to expand the use of renewable energy sources in a sustainable manner has driven the production of biofuels worldwide. Within this scenario, Brazil stands out with bioethanol from sugar cane. The ethanol production of 1st generation is already established on a large scale in the country. With the prospect of expanding the production of this biofuel, ethanol of 2nd gener...
- Autotrophic denitrification using sulfide and integration with the nitrification process in a single reactor, BP.DR
Abstract
This project has the main objective to evaluate the ability to remove nitrogen from effluent from anaerobic reactor treating domestic sewage in a reactor operated in fed-batch mode, containing immobilized biomass, subject to conditions of intermittent aeration, applying autotrophic denitrification using sulfide present in the effluent and biogas as electron donor. Initially, key aspects...
- Anaerobic digestion of vinasse for biogas production and mitigation of greenhouse gas emission, BE.EP.PD
Abstract
The need for improving the sustainability of bioethanol from sugarcane in Brazil has boosted the search for process energy optimization coupled to the environmental suitability of generated coproducts and wastes. In this scenario, anaerobic digestion of vinasse (the most abundant effluent in a biorefinery) arises as an interesting alternative, since in addition of promoting stabilizatio...
