The Multicargas Terminal at Port of Açu Received More Than 1,900 Trucks with Over 70,000 Tons of Spodumene for Shipment. However, It Reached a Record Cargo Movement in Just One Operation.

Initially, the client’s mineral left Port Açu and went directly to China. Therefore, due to confidentiality, Port of Açu cannot disclose the name of the ship and the company that is the client and is involved in this operation.

In this case, the company issued a statement on the matter: “This milestone reinforces the competitive advantage of our terminal, which has a complete structure to accommodate large vessels, with a seamless operation, customized service, and efficient solutions.”

In 2022, T-MULT handled about 1.7 million tons, which is a record annual amount since its activities began in 2016. The terminal also recorded 5.9 million tons with 48 clients in its portfolio, and the average annual growth was 45%. Thus, it is preparing demand to increase expansion.

Scientists have created a microscopic nanorobot that functions as an invisible cleaner, chasing bacteria with light, transporting microorganisms, and releasing each target at the exact point, in an advancement that could change diagnostics and treatments.

Lufthansa shuts down subsidiary CityLine immediately, cuts 2,200 jobs overnight, and leaves 27 jets grounded amid strikes and rising jet fuel prices.

The government will pay R$ 1.20 for each liter of diesel that Brazil imports and for the first time in history requires distributors to reveal how much they profit — those who hide their margins will face fines of up to R$ 500 million…

With 250 meters and 55 floors, the Mohammed VI Tower becomes a new icon of Rabat, housing Waldorf Astoria and an observation deck, investing in solar energy, and already dividing UNESCO’s opinions on the historical landscape.

The government accelerates the project to eliminate the 6×1 shift and reduce the workweek from 44 to 40 hours without cutting salaries, but the risk of inflation and informality is taken into account.
