The Nuclear Reactor-Powered Ship Project Is A Form Of Carbonization Of The Atmosphere Thought Of By Both Companies, Hyundai And Microsoft

For the first time, Hyundai presented a specific ship project powered by a modular reactor (SMR) produced by Microsoft. The announcement was made by Hyundai Group, specifically by its holding Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering, where the project considers a carbon-free nuclear reactor-powered ship concept, according to the website Portos e Navios.

The Microsoft ship project together with Hyundai is at the basic phase, featuring a vessel powered by a 240-megawatt SMR and 4 sets of 60 megawatts. This was the first time that Hyundai disclosed the project in detail.

The reactor, which has an electrical power of nearly 300 megawatts, will be placed at the bottom of the ship, where it will produce carbon-free fuel (like hydrogen), which will be situated above the buoyancy medium of Hyundai’s ship.

And Microsoft In The Project?

Microsoft invested US$ 30 million in TerraPower in 2022, a company producing sustainable nuclear reactors developed by Microsoft founder Bill Gates. Microsoft’s plan is to build an SMR in Wyoming, USA, by 2030.

In addition, Samsung Heavy Industries developed a project for an electric barge for a compact molten salt reactor, a type of SMR, receiving certification from the American Bureau of Shipping.

On Thursday (9), a unique experience began for the students of the Oceanography course at the Federal University of Espírito Santo (Ufes). The students will be onboard until the 16th of this month on the school ship Ciências do Mar III, and will be able to take advantage of the available infrastructure to learn about ROVs. For this, the Floating Teaching Laboratory will make its first trip to Espírito Santo. Check out this article in full by clicking here i.

The oldest tree in the world, alive since before the birth of Jesus Christ, is cut down in a scientific study and the case changes environmental preservation rules.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

Peru built a tunnel at an altitude of 4,738 meters cutting through the Andes Mountains, and the road leading to it reaches 4,818 meters, making it the highest paved road in the entire world.

Stored for over 100 years, the first underwater tunnel in Latin America receives a decisive boost with a loan of R$ 2.5 billion signed in April and promises to connect Santos and Guarujá, on the coast of São Paulo, in just 5 minutes.

The reign of carpets in the entrance hall has come to an end: aluminum mats emerge as a new trend that hardly gets dirty, lasts longer, and improves the hygiene of spaces.

The construction of houses with cement wood blocks is surprising workers; it uses a direct fitting system without complications and can make the work up to 100 times faster than the conventional method.

The government announces a new clinical research program and outlines how the amount of R$120 million in investments will be distributed among hospitals and universities of the SUS.
