ENERGY

Oil, Gas & Renewable Energy. This study focuses on hydrocarbon exploration and production, particularly in the context of pre-salt reserves, which place Brazil among the countries with the largest global reserves. The program seeks advancements in areas such as reservoir geoengineering, porous media flow modeling, oil and gas recovery, production, and processing techniques, well drilling and completion, lifting and flow, refining, and characterization of oils and emulsions. It also includes the development and application of computer systems and electronic prototypes to support exploration and production, as well as integration with renewable energy technologies. Energy Efficiency addresses the challenges of the Brazilian energy sector, bringing together studies on the development, synthesis, and characterization of new materials, including nanostructured materials, for use in industry and power generation. It also involves the optimization and logistics of energy systems, process modeling and simulation, and process engineering focused on material characterization, the development and optimization of separations and refineries, and the use of chemical and biochemical reactors in biofuel production. Both lines prioritize contributions that advance technological innovation, sustainability, and the efficient use of energy resources.

AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING

Agriculture is the sector responsible for a third of the Brazilian gross domestic product, this fact alone justifies a great demand for research, development and technological innovation as important tools for the integral and sustainable growth of Brazilian agribusiness. There are three factors linked to agricultural production: the physical, such as the soil and the climate; the human factor, which corresponds to labor in its development; and the economic factor, which refers to the value of the land and the level of technologies applied in production.
In this sense, we invite authors to submit contributions that can add significantly through theoretical and experimental research, development of agricultural production techniques, innovation of agricultural processes and technology transfer in the areas of phytotechnics, soils, agricultural systems engineering, rural development, rural economy, sustainable agriculture and family farming.
