Research Type: Basic Search. Research goal: Development of chemical processes using deep eutectic solvents and nanostructured materials in membranes for capturing CO2 or separating CO2/CH4 and CO2/N2 with better efficiency, more favorable properties (lower viscosity, greater CO2 absorption capacity, lower
Type of Research: Applied Research. Research goal: Development of CLC (Chemical Looping Combustion) and Oxy-fuel combustion processes using strategic fuels for Brazilian energy matrices. Special attention will be given to the compositions and structures of oxygen-carrying particles (in the case
Type of Research: Applied Research. Research goal: Develop design criteria for temperature swing adsorption systems to capture CO2 from biomass combustion gases using optimization tools. Partnership and financing: Shell Brasil. We gratefully acknowledge the support of the RCGI – Research
Type of Research: Applied Research. Research goal: Integrate Metallic Ionic Polymer Composites (CMPIs) in the Labyrinth Seal (SL) project, creating the concept of smart SL with the aim of reducing greenhouse gas emissions (CH4 and CO2) in pneumatic machines as
Type of Research: Applied Research. Research goal: Determine the sources, sinks and processes that control greenhouse gas emissions in the Amazon, and develop a system and services based on data science and artificial intelligence for modeling, analysis and visualization of
Research backed by the RCGI could contribute to Brazil profiting in the future from the carbon dioxide market and to reducing global warming. The Amazon rain forest is responsible for removing 400 million tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
Alarm raised by Paulo Artaxo, one of the world’s most influential researchers in the area of the environment and climate change, who lectured at the RCGI before going to COP27. Even if we are able to substitute fossil fuels with
Coordinated by scientist Paulo Artaxo, an innovative platform is being developed within the scope of the RCGI’s research projects. It will be open-access and will help studies of the role of the Amazon within the global climate. The Research Centre
