Associate Professor at São Paulo State University (UNESP), Faculty of Engineering, Campus of Guaratinguetá, responsible for the LC3 (Laboratory of combustion and carbon capture). Developed her postdoctoral internship at the University of Southampton (UK)-Energy Technology Research Group/School of Engineering Sciences. Her postdoctoral, doctorate, and master degree were in Mechanical Engineering, which was developed at University of São Paulo (USP /EESC), and her degree in chemical engineering was developed at Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFF). Her main research refers to carbon capture technologies (Mineral carbonation, Calcium Looping, and oxy-fuel combustion), thermochemistry conversion processes of biomass, and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9129-0087.

Among the proposals to mitigate carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere by the technology of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) and, more recently, by the technology of Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) have been proved promising. The mineral carbonation process (CM) is one of the more promising CCUS technologies. However, due to the high cost of operation and high consumption o…
The laboratory of Combustion and Carbon Capture (LC3) of the Faculty of Engineering of Guaratinguetá (FEG/UNESP) aims to develop research in the energy field, with emphasis on combustion processes and mitigating the impacts caused by the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2). Studies in the literature indicate that the carbonation processes have great potential for use in the technology of Car…

Currently, the disposal of municipal solid waste (MSW) is a significant issue in developing countries like Brazil. Careless and indiscriminate dumping of these wastes can spread serious diseases. All the existing disposal methods only concentrate on removing harmful pathogens but not on energy recovery. The development of novel and eco-friendly alternative techniques for the treatment of …
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) aims to understand the environmental impacts from the life cycle of a product or service since its removal from nature to the final destination after use (from cradle to grave). The application of LCA in the assessment of power generation system from biomass is little discussed in the literature, mainly when it involves carbon capture and storage (CCS) technolo…
An increase of 70% on worldwide energy demands will be necessary for 2050.However, international agreements indicates will be necessary a greenhouse gases (GHG)reduction about 50%, consequently, the energy demands could be limited to 25% for the same year. The biomass is based on carbon and this carbon can be converted to fuel using biologic and thermochemical processes. The co-firing of …
Research available in the literature show that the mineral carbonation process is known as an economically efficient technology, and it has a great potential when applied to the Carbon Capture and Storage Technology. In this process, the capture of the CO2 occurs by the generation of thermodynamic and environmentally stable products, such as the carbonates. In this context, this research …
