Previous issue date: 2013 / Resumo: Este trabalho teve por objetivo avaliar a eficiência da energia renovável de fontes alternativas de biomassas como matérias-primas em processos de geração de energia integradas a produção de etanol de cana-de-açúcar para utilização no período de entressafra desta matéria-prima ou de forma independente através de uma usina termelétrica. As fontes de biomassa analisadas foram as seguintes: resíduos agroindustriais (casca de arroz, jequitibá-rosa, caixeta), resíduos urbanos (poda de árvores e fibra de coco) e plantio e floretas energéticas (capim-elefante e eucalipto). As eficiências energéticas relativas das biomassas foram determinadas a partir de uma usina termoelétrica de referencia, considerando-se a mesma potência de IMW, a eficiência do processo de termoconversão e os índices energéticos consolidados para esta avaliação energética e emergética, usando-se a Análise Envoltória de Dados (DEA). A floresta enegética de eucalipto, o plantio de campim-elefante, o resíduo urbano da fibra-de-coco e os resíduos agroindustriais das madeiras caixeto e jequitibá-rosa apresentaram os melhores indices de eficiência energética renovável relativa, demonstrando que estas fontes de biomassas apresentaram desempenhos similares ou próximos ao abtido pelo bagaço da cana-de-açucar e, portanto, com potencial para substuí-la na geração de 7.776 kWh/ano de bioenergia, com sustentabilidade. O uso de biomassas alternativas para geração de energia elétrica na substituição do uso de combustíveis fósseis em unidades geradoras convencionais por uma usina termoelétrica movida a biomassa, pode mitigar 96.733 quilitoneladas de CO2 durante a expectativa de operação da planta, constribuindo para a redução de emissões de gases do efeito estufa e geração de energia mais limpa e renovável / Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of renewable energy from alternative sources of biomass as raw materials in processes of power generation integrated production of ethanol from sugarcane for use in the off-season this raw material or fromindependent through a thermoelectric plant. The sources of biomass were analyzed as follows: agroindustrial waste (rice husk, jequitibá rosa and caixeta woods), municipal waste (pruning trees and coconut fiber) and florest energy plantations (elephant grass and eucalyptus). The relative efficiency renewable energy of biomass were determined from a reference power plant, considering the same power of 1MW and the efficiency of the thermal conversion process were then consolidaded in an emergy index for this energy and emergy evaluation, using the Data Envelopment analysis (DEA). The eucalyptus forest, planting of elephant grass, urban waste fiber cocount and agroindustrial waste woods of caixeta and jequitibá rosa showed the highest index of renewable energy relative efficiency, demonstrating that these sources of biomass showed similar or close to that obtained from sugarcane performance and therefore have the potential to replace it in the generation of 7,776 kWh / year of bio-energy with sustainability. The use of alternative biomass for power generation in the replacement of fossil fuels in conventional generating units powered by a thermoelectric plant biomass can mitigate 96,733 kilotonnes of C02 over the expected plant operation, constributing to the reduction of greenhouse gases emissions and generation of cleaner and renewable energy / Doutorado / Engenharia Química / Doutor em Engenharia Química

<b>SCALABLE MULTI INPUT MULTI OUTPUT DC BUCK CONVERTER USING MULTISTAGE AND MULTIPHASE TECHNIQUES</b>Khalifa Ahmed Alremeithi (14661221) 18 July 2024 (has links)
<p dir="ltr">The demand for renewable energy and electric vehicles (EVs) is increasing, necessitating efficient energy conversion and management solutions. The thesis addresses the critical challenge of dynamically converting multiple Direct Current (DC) inputs to multiple DC outputs while maintaining efficiency and scalability. The primary objective is to design and test a Multi Input Multi Output (MIMO) DC converter, focusing on verifying its scalability and load efficiency. The research investigates hardware requirements, the implementation of multiphase circuits, and the balancing of power between various inputs through multistage cycling. The study hypothesizes that multistage cycling balances the output power between inputs, and multiphase configurations can scale the converter without affecting efficiency. Methods include examining existing converters, simulating multistage circuits, and fabricating a prototype. Key deliverables include a working prototype demonstrating scalability and efficiency. Results indicate that the MIMO DC converter performs efficiently with multiple inputs and outputs, achieving over 90% efficiency. The use of Gallium Nitride (GaN) transistors and synchronous buck converter topology proves effective in minimizing losses and enhancing stability. The research holds significant value in advancing renewable energy and DC converter technology, promoting sustainability and efficient energy management. Future work should explore advanced filtration circuits, higher voltage testing, and more complex configurations to further enhance the converter's capabilities.</p>

O cenário brasileiro de geração termelétrica à biomassa: uma avaliação de oportunidades no setor sucroenergético / The brazilian scenario for biomass power generation: an assessment of opportunities in the sugar & ethanol industryZanato, Marco Aurélio 04 March 2016 (has links)
A geração termelétrica a partir da biomassa proveniente do setor sucroenergético brasileiro, além de ser vista como opção para investimentos no setor de energias renováveis, pode contribuir com o suprimento de energia mantendo aspectos inerentes às vantagens sociais, estratégicas e ambientais que o favorecimento de um setor genuinamente desenvolvido no Brasil pode atribuir à matriz de energia elétrica. O objetivo principal deste trabalho é analisar o potencial adicional de energia elétrica que pode ser gerado a partir de recursos do setor sucroenergético. Os objetivos específicos estão em determinar e dimensionar os possíveis combustíveis para geração termelétrica no setor sucroenergético, em determinar quais rotas tecnológicas possibilitam o aumento da geração de energia e em quantificar a geração específica bruta de energia para cada tecnologia selecionada. O método consiste na realização de revisão bibliográfica para alocar o tema de estudo e pesquisa, com posterior elaboração de pesquisas documentais com o intuito de reunir dados e estimativas necessárias ao desenvolvimento do cálculo, coletando dados em publicações de institutos, entidades, empresas e consultores (dados de estimativas de produção de cana-de-açúcar para o período projetado e a definição dos recursos combustíveis e dos recursos tecnológicos). A seguir, para cada tecnologia de geração de energia elétrica, são apresentados arranjos com seus respectivos balanços de energia, índices de geração específica bruta de energia para as condições de cogeração e de geração de energia elétrica pura, vantagens, desvantagens e a inserção destas tecnologias ao longo do período estimado. Os resultados apontam que a expansão da produção de cana-de-açúcar, baseada na expansão agrícola e no aumento da produtividade, bem como o incremento tecnológico dos sistemas termelétricos de potência disponíveis comercialmente para o setor sucroenergético podem permitir a projeção de cenários com 26 GW de capacidade instalada com a utilização do bagaço e 33 GW com a inserção de palha. A importância deste trabalho está relacionada com a apresentação do estado da arte da tecnologia disponível para a geração termelétrica a partir do setor sucroenergético, pelo fato de apresentar os índices de geração específica para diferentes cenários de disponibilidade combustível e de tecnologias aplicáveis e por permitir análises entre os grupos tecnológicos e as biomassas disponíveis para a geração. / The biomass power generation in the Brazilian sugar & ethanol industry, besides being seen as an option for investments in the renewable energy sector, may contribute to the energy supply while maintaining aspects related to social, strategic and environmental advantages that the support of a sector genuinely developed in Brazil can attribute to the electricity matrix. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the surplus electricity that can be generated from resources of the sugar & ethanol industry. The specific aims are to determine and measure the potential fuels for power generation in the sugar & ethanol industry, to determine which technological routes enable an increase in the power generation and to quantify the specific gross power generation for each selected technology. The method consists of conducting a literature review in order to place the subject of study, with further development of documentary research in order to collect data necessary for developing the calculation, collecting data in publications from institutes, organizations, companies and consultants (sugarcane production data estimates for the foreseen period of study and the definition of fuel and technology resources for power generation). Afterwards, for each power generation technology, arrangements are presented with their respective energy balances, the specific gross power generation for the cases of process cogeneration and power generation stand-alone, the advantages, disadvantages and the inclusion of these technologies over the projected period. The results show that the expansion of production of sugarcane, based on agricultural expansion and increased productivity as well as the technological improvement of commercially available power generation systems for the sugarcane industry may allow scenarios with 26 GW of installed capacity using the sugarcane bagasse and 33 GW with the insertion of the sugarcane straw. The significance of this work is related to the presentation of the state of the art technology available for the thermoelectric generation from sugarcane industry. It is also connected to the fact of presenting an index of specific power generation for different scenarios of fuel availability and applicable technologies as well as enabling analysis of technological groups and available biomass for power generation.

Previous issue date: 2016-06-03 / O custo elevado de grandes centrais de geração e extensas linhas de transmissão de energia elétrica, bem como novas regulamentações tornam a geração distribuída e a busca de outras fontes de energia mais atrativas atualmente. A proposta deste trabalho é o desenvolvimento de uma metodologia para analisar a viabilidade técnico/econômico de implantação de geração distribuída aproveitando o conceito de microrredes em instituições de ensino superior. Este trabalho estuda a possibilidade de utilizar os recursos naturais e alternativos de forma a minimizar os custos oriundos da compra de energia elétrica. Para esta pesquisa, é apresentada a modelagem realizada em ambiente computacional utilizando um software que auxilia nas análises, trazendo para o valor presente os custos provenientes de implantação, operação e manutenção. Para estudo de caso será utilizada a Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM). Ao final do trabalho, foram atingidos os seguintes resultados: verificou-se possibilidade de redução do custo com energia elétrica através da redução de consumo e redução de contratação de demanda; observamos o retorno do investimento e o atendimento de portarias visando à utilização de fontes renováveis em instituições federais. / The high cost of large central generation, the long distance power transmission lines and the new governmental regulations make the distributed generation and the search for other energy sources an attractive solution. This work presents a methodology to analyze the technical and economic feasibility of distribute generation deployment using the concept of microgrids in Universities. The study aims to consider the possibility of using natural and alternative resources like Ethanol, biomass and PV to minimize the costs related to the purchase and usage of electricity. The modeling is developed in a computing environment using the software Homer that assists in the analysis, bringing the current value of the costs of implementation, operation and maintenance. With the data from the analyses it will be possible to present some alternative scenarios of improvement with reduction of costs and increase of reliability. For this study case, Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (Federal University of Santa Maria), in south Brazil, is analyzed. It was possible to bring solutions that reduced the energy purchased from de grid, through available renewable sources in the own University. We could also reduce the contracted demand. The methodology developed can be applied to any other Universities, analyzing the available sources in the campus, to bring economy, reliability and reduction of greenhouse gases.

Strategies for building polymers from renewable sources : Using prepolymers from steam treatment of wood and monomers from fermentation of agricultural productsSöderqvist Lindblad, Margaretha January 2003 (has links)
A strategic research area today is development of polymericproducts made from renewable sources. The ways of utilizingrenewable sources studied in this thesis are using 1)prepolymers obtained by steam treatment of wood and 2) monomersobtainable by fermentation of agricultural products. Novel hemicellulose-based hydrogels were prepared by usingprepolymers obtained from steam treatment of spruce.Hemicellulose was first modified with well-defined amounts ofmethacrylic functions. Hydrogels were then prepared by radicalpolymerization with 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate orpoly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate to form hydrogels. Theradical polymerization reaction was carried out in water usinga redox initiator system. The hydrogels were in generalelastic, soft and easily swollen in water. Frequency sweeptests indicated that the hydrogel system displayed prevailingsolid-like behavior. Comparison of the hemicellulose-basedhydrogels with pure poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)-basedhydrogels showed that it was possible to preparehemicellulose-based hydrogels with properties similar to thoseof pure poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)-based hydrogels. Polyester-based materials were prepared by using themonomers 1,3- propanediol and succinic acid obtainable byfermentation. α,ω-Dihydroxyterminatedoligomeric polyesters produced by the thermal polycondensationof 1,3-propanediol and succinic acid were chain-extended toobtain sufficiently high molecular weight. Depending on thechain-extension technology adopted, poly(ester carbonate)s orpoly(ester urethane)s were obtained. In the case of poly(estercarbonate)s, the chain-extended products ofα,ω-dihydroxyterminated oligomeric copolyesters werealso produced using 1,3-propanediol/1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol/succinic acid mixtures toimprove thermal and mechanical properties. Segmented poly(esterether carbonate)s fromα,ω-dihydroxyterminated oligo(propylenesuccinate)s and poly(ethylene glycol) were also synthesized toincrease the hydrophilicity. Molecular weights and polydispersity were analyzed by SECfor all materials. Their structures were also identified by NMRspectroscopy (1H NMR and 13C NMR). All characterizations werein agreement with the proposed structures. Thermal parameterswere characterized by DSC. Tensile testing anddynamic-mechanical tests were performed and in additionpreliminary processing trials were carried out in some cases.The results demonstrate the feasibility of using monomersderived from renewable sources to build up new polymericstructures endowed with a variety of physical and mechanicalproperties.
