This thesis deals with issues of the issue lead-acid batteries and their application in mode of hybrid electric vehicle. The experiment is focused on the production of electrodes to determine the effect five types of additives in negative active mass in PsoC(Partial State of Charge) mode. This simulates conditions occurring in the mode of hybrid electric vehicles (HEV).

A continuous increase in demands from the utility grid and traction applications have steered public attention toward the integration of energy storage (ES) and hybrid ES (HESS) solutions. Modern technologies are no longer limited to batteries, but can include supercapacitors (SC) and flywheel electromechanical ES well. However, insufficient control and algorithms to monitor these devices can result in a wide range of operational issues. A modern day control platform must have a deep understanding of the source. In this dissertation, specialized modular Energy Storage Management Controllers (ESMC) were developed to interface with a variety of ES devices. The EMSC provides the capability to individually monitor and control a wide range of different ES, enabling the extraction of an ES module within a series array to charge or conduct maintenance, while remaining storage can still function to serve a demand. Enhancements and testing of the ESMC are explored in not only interfacing of multiple ES and HESS, but also as a platform to improve management algorithms. There is an imperative need to provide a bridge between the depth of the electrochemical physics of the battery and the power engineering sector, a feat which was accomplished over the course of this work. First, the ESMC was tested on a lead acid battery array to verify its capabilities. Next, physics-based models of lead acid and lithium ion batteries lead to the improvement of both online battery management and established multiple metrics to assess their lifetime, or state of health. Three unique HESS were then tested and evaluated for different applications and purposes. First, a hybrid battery and SC HESS was designed and tested for shipboard power systems. Next, a lithium ion battery and SC HESS was utilized for an electric vehicle application, with the goal to reduce cycling on the battery. Finally, a lead acid battery and flywheel ES HESS was analyzed for how the inclusion of a battery can provide a dramatic improvement in the power quality versus flywheel ES alone.

Portanto, a gestão ambientalmente racional dos resíduos foi incluída entre as questões de maior importância para a manutenção da qualidade do ambiente natural e para o atingimento de um modelo mais sustentável de desenvolvimento. Em adição aos argumentos supramencionados, sabe-se que o aumento populacional em diversas partes do mundo, e o consequente incremento no consumo, facilmente influenciam as organizações a aumentarem sua produção, o que também aumenta tanto o consumo de matéria-prima quanto a geração de resíduos. Uma maneira de mitigar a pegada ecológica – e, inclusive, de gerar valor para a organização – está em utilizar os recursos de maneira mais sustentável, dando prioridade a processos de reuso, reaproveitamento e reciclagem de matérias-primas. E a logística reversa é um conceito que cresce em importância, já que permite às organizações, de maneira estruturada, ter acesso ao resíduo de seu produto e/ou de produtos de terceiros após o uso pelo consumidor, tornando este resíduo (em parte ou no todo) uma nova entrada no processo produtivo como matéria-prima ou insumo, ao invés de ser direcionado a lixões ou aterros sanitários. Diante desta problemática, e face à criação, no Brasil, da Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos, este estudo tem como objetivo descrever, analisar e comparar as práticas de logística reversa pós-consumo de três setores distintos: baterias chumbo-ácido, embalagens de óleo lubrificante e pneus. Foram verificados os modelos de funcionamento e os resultados ambientais da implementação dos sistemas de logística reversa. Para a realização do estudo, foram entrevistados representantes dos setores afim de estudar as entidades gestoras: IBER, Instituto Jogue Limpo e RECICLANIP, responsáveis pela gestão dos sistemas de logística reversa de baterias chumbo-ácido, embalagens de óleo lubrificante e pneus, respectivamente. / The unsustainable modalities of production and consumption have been the point of environmental discussions that influence society and, consequently, legal and production aspects. Sustainable waste management has been included as one of the most important issues for maintaining the quality of the natural environment and for achieving a more sustainable model of development. In addition to the above arguments, it is known that the population increases in several parts of the world, and the consequent increase in consumption, easily influence the organizations to increase their production, which also increases both the consumption of raw material and the generation of waste. One way to mitigate the ecological footprint - and even to generate value for the organization - is to use resources in a more sustainable way, giving priority to processes of reuse and recycling of raw materials. Reverse logistics is a concept that grows in importance, since it allows the organization, in a structured way, to have access to the residue of its product after the use by the consumer, making this residue (in part or in whole) a new entry in the process as raw material or input, rather than being directed to landfills. In view of this problem, and in view of the creation in Brazil of the National Solid Waste Policy, this study aims to describe, analyze and compare the postconsumption reverse logistics practices of three different sectors: lead-acid batteries, lubricating oil and tires. The operating models and the environmental performance of the sectors were verified before and after the implementation of the reverse logistics systems. In order to carry out the study, were interviewed representatives of three sectors in order to study the entities: IBER, Jogue Limpo Institute and RECICLANIP, responsible for the management of reverse logistics systems for lead-acid batteries, lubricating oil packing and tires, respectively.

All parts of the WECS are presented and discussed in detail. Furthermore, control strategies for the generator-side converter and the voltage source inverter are developed. The WECS is simulated both in grid connected and stand-alone mode. In the stand-alone mode, the WECS is supplied with an energy storage system for which a bi-directional buck/boost converter and control strategy was designed. Finally, simulation results are presented and performance of the system in various modes of operation is evaluated. Simulink/Matlab is used for modeling and simulating the WECS. At the beginning of Chapter 1, a discussion of energy crisis and renewable energy sources is held. Furthermore, information about wind energy has been reviewed and its benefits and drawbacks are examined. In addition, the structure of a wind turbine and the principles of converting wind energy into electricity are presented. In Chapter 2 all parts of the wind turbine are studied and its characteristics are specified. Even more, the model of every part in Simulink is presented. Theoretical background, structure and operation principles of PMSG are presented in detail. In Chapter 3, firstly a general presentation of converters components takes place. Then the major existing categories of converter are presented and some basic types of converters, which are generally used in WECS, are mentioned. Moreover, the chapter focuses on the converters that are used in this thesis, explaining the way they operate. After all, their models in Simulink are shown. Emphasis was given to the dc/dc boost converter whose parameters are calculated and its operation is simulated. Finally, there is a presentation of the filter which was placed at the output of the inverter. In Chapter 4, Pulse-width Modulation (PWM) and Sinusoidal Pulse-width Modulation (SPWM) techniques that are used in this thesis are described. Moreover, the control strategy for the generator-side converter with maximum power extraction is presented. The control strategy of the voltage sourced inverter is shown as well. In Chapter 5 simulation results of the grid connected WECS are presented and evaluated. On the first part of the presentation, the WECS is simulated for constant wind speed (12m/s), and in the second part for step-changed wind speed. In Chapter 6 the stand-alone operation of the WECS is studied and supplied with an energy storage system. Initially, there is an analysis of the energy storage system, which was used, and in particular the battery bank, whose characteristics are given. Moreover, a Bi-directional dc/dc Buck-Boost converter which is used to interconnect the battery bank to the dc-link is presented and modeled. Afterwards, there is a detailed description of the control strategy used in order to control charging / discharging of the battery bank. At the end of this chapter, simulation results of two different stand-alone operation modes are presented, one with constant wind speed and variable load and the other one with step-changing wind speed and constant load.
