Beyond Diesel Oil, Airplanes, Inputs for Fertilizers, Oil, Vessels, and Vaccines Were Also Other Products Imported by Brazil

Although 2021 was a problematic year for foreign trade, imports ended on a high note in Brazil, with a growth of 23.94% compared to 2020. In total, US$ 232,835,014,412.13 were imported, against US$ 189,966,960,360.48, according to data from Logcomex released in the Brazilian Import Report of 2021. Among this list, some items were highlighted. “We can highlight diesel oil, airplanes, inputs for fertilizers, oil, vessels, and vaccines,” explains Helmuth Hofstatter, CEO of Logcomex.

Use of Gas (CNG or Biomethane) as Fuel Came to Save Consumers’ Budgets and Becomes a Better Alternative to Replace Gasoline and Diesel in Light and Heavy Vehicles, Further Reducing Pollution

The use of gas (CNG or Biomethane) as fuel in light and heavy vehicles is one of the solutions found as an alternative to the use of gasoline and diesel to reduce pollution and also for those looking to ease the burden of the constant price hikes in fuels.

In Rio de Janeiro, the use of CNG in passenger vehicles is common, based on the cost-benefit ratio of the product and also helps combat GHGs (greenhouse gases).

Through Environmental Governance (ESG), companies have been demanding “environmentally correct” behavior from the market. With that in mind, as an alternative to diesel and gasoline, some trucks and agricultural machines powered by gas can be observed. This technology, which uses Otto cycle engines, allows the use of both CNG (a fossil fuel, but less polluting) and Biomethane (gas obtained from the anaerobic fermentation of organic material).

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.

Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt has ceased to be a climatic phenomenon and has become a biological system that feeds on itself, with 8,000 kilometers in length, 37 million tons of algae, and scientists confirm that it is now permanent.

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.

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.

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.

Engineers had to pour concrete mixed with tons of ice throughout entire nights in the Dubai desert to erect the Burj Khalifa; any carelessness could clog the pipes half a mile high.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

Adriano, known as Bó, who lived in Japan for 15 years, returned to the countryside of Minas and transformed a site surrounded by waterfalls and simple traditions into a true rural paradise in the Serra da Canastra.

Chile inaugurates the first electric highway for the trucks that drive its economy, installs high-power chargers over 400 km, and aims to reduce diesel dependency in a logistical shift to Puerto Montt by 2030.

Thousands of recycled glass bottles are transformed into foam insulating blocks, replace heavy gravel in construction, protect foundations, and reduce construction costs.

While factories discard millions of pounds of old paper without reuse, a technology using enzymes creates finishing panels without toxic resin, attracting the attention of the sustainable construction sector.

Considered the smallest beach in the world at just 40 meters, Gulpiyuri Beach has waves, tides, and saltwater that reach the site through natural caves connected to the Cantabrian Sea.
