Government Companies Amazul and Nuclep Sign Contract for Construction of Nuclear Reactor to Equip the Navy’s Prosub Program Nuclear Submarine

Amazul (Amazônia Azul Tecnologias de Defesa S.A.) and Nuclep (Nuclebrás Equipamentos Pesados S.A.) signed, last Friday (10/11), the contract for the construction of part of the prototype of the nuclear reactor being developed by the Brazilian Navy.
The equipment is part of the propulsion system of the fifth and final submarine (SN-BR) of the Brazilian Navy’s Prosub program, which is being built at the ICN shipyard in Itaguaí. At ICN, the second submarine has a hull closure ceremony.

The contract signed between the parties provides for the manufacturing, assembly, and supply of the vessel (cylinder) and internal containment structures, as well as the manufacture of the primary shielding tank of the so-called Labgene (Nuclear Power Generation Laboratory).

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

A buried river highway from 4,000 years ago in Iraq reappears in Cold War spy satellite images and reveals how boats transported grains, copper, wood, and wealth between major cities of ancient Mesopotamia.

The ship Norse Wind entered into operation with a 3,200-ton crane capable of installing at sea wind turbines with blades larger than a football field.

Norway prepares an unprecedented underwater plant that uses ocean pressure at a depth of 500 meters to transform seawater into drinking water with up to 50% less energy.
