Energy Transition in Brazil
The book's objective is to present the energy transition process in Brazil over time and offer new perspectives on this process in the eyes of a sustainable future. The book unfolds over 15 chapters covering historical, geopolitical, technological, and economical aspects, as well as aspects conceptually familiar to the energy transition such as public perception, low-carbon technologies, digitalization, Sustainable Development Goals, and even recent topics such as the pandemic of COVID-19. The Brazilian electricity and transport sectors and climate change governance are the main focus of this book. The paths taken throughout this book demonstrate the particularities of Brazil and present this country in a unique and differentiated way in terms of the various approaches to the energy transition. It is a book that brings a multidisciplinary, innovative vision and information published for the first time.
Handbook of Energy and Environment in the 21st Century
The Handbook of Energy and Environment in the 21st Century discusses the key dimensions of the present energy scenario as well as the emerging trends. Global responses to environmental challenges are examined, taking into account technical, economic, social, and policy perspectives. Responding to the latest developments, the book also discusses the impacts of natural disasters and pandemics on energy in the context of energy and environmental implications. Further, it presents various related topics such as the dynamics of sustainable energy transition, renewable energy implementation, decarbonization of fossil fuels, electric mobility, distributed generation systems, and energy security. The book will benefit a wide range of stakeholders from the fields of energy, environment, socioeconomics, geopolitics, and sustainable development. It serves as a valuable reference for academics, researchers, and analysts in these fields. Provides a comprehensive and balanced account of the interwoven subjects of energy and environment in terms of technology and policy dynamics. Incorporates up-to-date data, case studies, and comparative assessments.
Combate À Corrupção Na Visão Do Ministério Público
Os ensaios selecionados nessa obra são de autoria de integrantes do Ministério Público Brasileiro com atuação em vários Estados da Federação, os quais, há anos, lidam com inúmeros casos de corrupção no desafiador cotidiano de investigações, atuações extrajudiciais e no curso de processos cíveis e criminais. Na obra são abordadas - em linguagem clara e com olhos atentos à realidade nacional e em aspectos fundamentais do ordenamento jurídico - problemáticas acerca da prevenção dos atos de improbidade administrativa; do enfrentamento dos crimes contra a administração pública e sua punição em regime fechado; atividades das organizações criminosas no setor estatal; colaboração premiada; portais da transparência; dano moral coletivo por atos de corrupção; poder discricionário e corrupção; a refutação da teoria da reserva do possível ante a malversação de recursos; controle social e institucional de verbas públicas; composição dos tribunais superiores e foro privilegiado; a cultura da sociedade como fator de contenção ou estímulo à corrupção; e os riscos à democracia em um ambiente de corrupção sistêmica.
Advanced Cooling Technologies and Applications
Since conventional cooling techniques are increasing falling short of meeting the ever-growing cooling demands of high heat generating devices, thermal systems, and processes, advanced and innovative cooling technologies are of immense importance to deal with such high thermal management. Hence, this book covers a number of key topics related to advanced cooling approaches, their performance, and applications, including: Evaporative air cooling; Spray impingement cooling; Heat pump-based cooling; Modular cooling for photovoltaic plant; Nucleate pool boiling of refrigerants; Transient flashing spray cooling and application; Compressor cooling systems for industry. The book is aimed at a wide variety of people from graduate students and researchers to manufacturers who are involved or interested in the areas of thermal management systems, cooling technologies, and their applications.
