The New Thermoelectric Plants in the State of Rio Grande do Sul Will Be Built in the Municipalities of Capivari do Sul and Uruguaiana

The companies Enerbio Energia and Creral will build two thermoelectric plants in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, which will use rice husks as fuel to generate energy. The cities of Uruguaiana and Capivari do Sul will host the projects, and new jobs may be created in the state. See also: A New Hydroelectric Plant Will Be Built in the State of Rio Grande do Sul.

New Thermoelectric Power Plant in Capivari do Sul

Creral, an energy company, has obtained the installation license to proceed with the project of the Litoral Norte thermoelectric power plant, which will be located in the municipality of Capivari do Sul, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. Alderi do Prado, the company’s president, says they have been working on this thermoelectric power plant project for two years, and with the license, they will now focus on the executive project and the procurement of generation and infrastructure equipment.

The thermoelectric power plant that will be constructed will use rice husks as fuel to generate energy, with an installed capacity of 5 MW, consuming 40,000 tons of rice husks annually.

With Investments of R$ 50 Million, Another New Thermoelectric Plant Will Be Built in Rio Grande do Sul

Enerbio Energia e Meio Ambiente received on 06/15 the authorization from the City Council of Uruguaiana, with the approval of the executive-authored law project granting an area of 7.85 hectares for the installation of a thermoelectric plant in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The estimate is that R$ 50 million will be invested in the municipality for the installation of the plant, creating 100 new jobs.

According to the project, the thermoelectric plant will produce clean and renewable energy from rice husks, estimating a monthly production of 8 MW of energy, which is sufficient to supply a city with 100,000 inhabitants.

According to data from the Secretary of Finance, of the R$ 50 million allocated for implementation, about R$ 3 million will remain with the municipality. The projection is that Uruguaiana will collect R$ 9 million annually in Service Tax (ISSQN) once the plant begins operations. The location of the grant is in the Charqueada area, a suburb located about 10 kilometers from the city. The installation process in the city of Rio Grande do Sul is projected to take between 18 and 24 months.

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

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.

Saudi Arabia and Qatar signed the agreement to connect Riyadh to Doha with a high-speed train traveling at 300 kilometers per hour, covering 785 kilometers of desert in about two hours.

Can buying a small farm become a trap? When the dream of weekend relaxation turns into weeds, maintenance, bad roads, and endless expenses.
