Brazil perspective

The use of the modelling-based strategy above described was investigated from an action research perspective by one of us (PF) who was the chemistiy teacher of a first grade medium level school class of 26 students (14-15 years old) in Brazil.

Much attention has been devoted in the professional journals and in the press to gasohol, and announcements of new ethanol plants and process improvements seem unending. A perspective on the problems and promise of gasohol is covered along with a status report on work in Brazil on (fuel) methanol from wood, not by destructive distillation used in the past, but by modern synthetic chemistry. Other promising new uses for...

Assessments of such resources differentiate between the physical (or theoretical), practical (ortechnical) and realizable (oreconomic) potential within a given timeframe. According to a recent study of the renewable energy potentials in the OECD countries and the ERICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa), the total renewable energy potential amounts to approximately 9,000 TWh electricity, 5,700 TWh heat, and 1,700 TWh biofuels for transport in the 2020 perspective for these countries (OECD, 2008). The European shares of these potentials, shown in Table 12.5, can be rich sources of either classical biofuels or hydrogen production.

The chapters in this section focus on the structural transformation of engineering education in historical and contemporary perspective, with a focus on processes around the globe. Based largely on country and region-specific case studies, these chapters discuss developments in the United States, Western and Eastern Europe, Brazil, India, and Latin America, respectively. They also provide the broad canvas upon which the subsequent sections of this two-volume edited compilation can be interpreted.

From the perspective of conservation, endemism may be more important than diversity (Gentry, 1995). High-diversity forests may be composed of wide-ranging species that merit less conservation focus than local endemics. From the evolutionary perspective, endemics are also interesting. Some areas of dry forest are clearly much richer in endemics than others. The Bolivian chiquitano (only three woody endemics Killeen et al.. Chapter 9) and seasonal forests of the Atlantic coastal forests of Brazil (Oliveira-Filho et al.. Chapter 7) are relatively poor in endemic species, whereas some inter-Andean valleys of Peru (Linares-Palomino, Chapter 11), Ecuador (Lewis et al. Chapter 12), Bolivia (Wood, Chapter 10), the Brazilian caatingas (Oliveira-Filho et al. Chapter 7 Queiroz, Chapter 6) and Mexican dry forests (Lott and Atkinson, Chapter 13) show higher endemism. This has considerable implications for both conservation prioritization and inference of history as discussed in the sections below.
