In Addition To Studying The Possibility Of Installing Solar Energy At Landfills, The City Of Curitiba Still Plans To Install It At Bus Terminals

Curitiba and Rio de Janeiro are studying the use of solar energy in deactivated landfills. In addition to the landfills, Curitiba is studying the use of solar energy at bus terminals. These types of projects are more common in European and North American countries. In Brazil, such projects are characterized as an advancement for the sector.

With this project, both CFF and Absolar hope to share the idea of using solar energy in landfills and spread it throughout Brazil and other cities in the region. Absolar and CFF signed a Memorandum of Understanding to collaborate on the projects, the association reported in a statement to the press released this Thursday.

The CFF is a partnership with the German International Organization (GIZ), which offers cities ambitious climate action through technical and financial support. In this phase, the CFF supports innovative solar projects in Rio de Janeiro and Curitiba.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Without wheels, iron, or machines, teams of up to 32 men would have dragged 2.3-ton blocks over wet sand up a ramp embedded in the pyramid itself, raising the structure in 20 to 27 years, according to a new computer model that reignites a millennia-old debate.

Santa Catarina leads national production in 12 agribusiness chains and dominates more than 50 segments ranging from apples to oysters and from pork to knit fabrics. The state consolidates its position among the five largest producers in Brazil in almost everything it produces.

Scientists reanimated a 48,500-year-old virus in the laboratory that had been frozen in the Siberian permafrost since before the extinction of the Neanderthals, and it was still capable of infecting living organisms after tens of millennia dormant in the ice.

More than 20 billion dollars and 600 km of railway were built in record time in Africa to extract the hidden iron ore from Simandou from the forest, now the first ships are arriving in China and the IMF predicts a 25% jump in Guinea’s GDP.

Around 7,000 jobs are expected to emerge in Navegantes with a new billion-dollar order from Petrobras, which closed R$ 11 billion in contracts to build four hybrid propulsion vessels equipped with underwater robots for the pre-salt layer at the Santa Catarina shipyard.

The oldest nuclear aircraft carrier still in operation in the world is currently on Brazilian soil making its final journey before retirement, and two American military planes landed in Salvador and Fortaleza to support the mission.
