Furthermore, in a seminar organized on Tuesday by the General Consulate of China in Rio de Janeiro, the director-general of Porto Central, José Maria Novaes, invited Chinese companies to join the project and take advantage of the port, designed to be the most modern in South America when inaugurated at the end of 2023.

New Frontiers for Brazilian Trade – Industrial Port

“Undoubtedly, Asia, especially China, is Brazil’s largest trading partner, and this international trade flow, mainly of commodities from Brazil to Asia and industrialized products from Asia to Brazil, requires large ships” that few Brazilian ports can accommodate now, Novaes noted.

Industrial Port Will Provide Water, Energy, and Gas at Competitive Prices

“It is an industrial port that enables water, energy, and gas at competitive prices. With terminals for exporting raw materials and semi-finished products, and with flexibility to accommodate the interests of project developers,” he added.

Finally, the Secretary of Development of Espírito Santo, Marcos Kneip, told the seminar participants: “Porto Central is becoming a reality. It is an industrial port complex that will serve oil and gas, mining, and agriculture companies, and will support the offshore industry.”

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

Spain installs two giant pipelines 2.2 km off the coast to draw water from the Mediterranean and supply a megafacility capable of producing 200 million liters of drinking water per day.

China modernizes the oldest metro line in Mexico City, taking on the renovation of 18.83 km, 20 stations, new trains, signaling, and maintenance for 19 years in one of the most crowded systems in Latin America.

Goodbye steel rebar? Scientists create 3D-printed plastic reinforcement that “bites” into concrete, prevents corrosion, and could change beams, slabs, and bridges in civil construction.

Small, automatic, and reliable car for around R$ 50,000: Kia Picanto combines economy, structural safety, good internal quality, and durable mechanics, but tests show that it makes sense mainly for urban use and not for those who frequently drive on highways.

A Danish company has installed in the Canary Islands a pioneering system that uses the Atlantic waves to generate electricity and produce drinking water at the same time, without fossil fuels and without relying on sun or wind, addressing at once two of the greatest needs of isolated islands.
