Award Ceremony Will Be Between October 20 and 23 at ENEGEP 2020. In total, there were 23 competitors in four categories

Student Marina Weil Afonso, from the Professional Master’s in Logistics, from the Department of Industrial Engineering at Cátedra Técnico Científica da PUC-Rio (CTC/PUC-Rio), had her dissertation elected as the best Professional Master’s of 2020 by the Brazilian Association of Production Engineering (ABEPRO).

The study “Simulation Applied in the Logistics of Loading of Oil Derivative for Maritime Shipment” suggests simulations of possible scenarios to evaluate and propose improvements in the loading formation for maritime shipment of an oil derivative. “These analyses are important for decision-making in managing refinery stocks and the supply chain,” emphasizes Prof. Fernando Luiz Cyrino Oliveira, advisor of the dissertation.

The award ceremony will be during the 40th National Meeting of Production Engineering (ENEGEP Web 2020), between October 20 and 23, in a virtual format. The student will receive a digital certificate, a registration for ENEGEP in the editions of 2020 and 2021, and her work will be disclosed on the site of ABEPRO.

Mother and daughter build a 70 m² house with more than 8,000 discarded glass bottles and impress with their creativity; known as the Casa de Sal, the property is located on Itamaracá Island, in Pernambuco.

The river that “dies” in the desert never reaches the sea and yet gives life to one of Africa’s largest natural refuges in a truly impressive way.

He transformed an abandoned plastic water tank into an underground house in the “hobbit hole” style, using only repurposed pallet wood, without heavy machinery or expensive labor.

Libya built over 4,000 kilometers of underground pipelines to bring water from the Sahara to coastal cities in a project that the government itself called the Eighth Wonder of the World.

Toyota launches “family hybrid van” with 7 or 8 seats, 1.8 hybrid engine, fuel consumption of up to 23.8 km/l, and a price equivalent to about R$ 104,000 without taxes, below the Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid sold in Brazil: meet the Noah Hybrid 2026 in Japan.

China transforms desert-devastated area into the world’s largest artificial forest, planting trees for 60 years, blocking sand that reached Beijing, and creating a “green lung” of 92,000 hectares in a region once considered lost.

Desert sand, previously discarded for being too smooth for concrete, becomes an ecological brick in the United Arab Emirates, dispensing with Portland cement, curing at room temperature, and attempting to transform dunes useless for construction into raw material for a new arid engineering.

Oil inventories in the United States plummet by 8.263 million barrels in one week, a drop more than double the expected, while Cushing also declines and refineries increase operations to 96.7%.

Mother of two who couldn’t leave her village in India takes a 20-day masonry course, starts a company with other women, receives a large production order, and changes her financial situation.

China off the radar: US plans mega $30 million weapons depot in Australia, out of reach of most Chinese missiles, with full capacity expected by 2028

Giant project connecting Salvador to Ilha de Itaparica advances in Bahia with authorization for the land phase, linear support platform in Vera Cruz, investment over R$ 10 billion, 12.4 km of extension over the sea, and a structure ten times larger than the Ponte de Guaratuba.

From newspaper delivery boy at age 12 to owner of an industry with 215 people, Silmo de Ávila left the countryside, taught himself metallurgy, went bankrupt in 2019, and reemerged by selling kits online until he created machines for livestock in Brazilian agribusiness.

Instead of plastering the wall, Argentine architects left ordinary bricks exposed, without traditional mortar, without finishes, without paint, and created a perforated pavilion that looks like an art installation.
