Ternium Steel Complex in Santa Cruz, Rio de Janeiro, Receives Millions of Dollars Every Year in Infrastructure and Environmental Investments

Ternium invested, from July of last year to June of this year, US$ 80 million in infrastructure and the environment of the Atlantic Steel Company (CSA) industrial plant in Santa Cruz, western zone of Rio de Janeiro.
The steel mill was purchased from ThyssenKrupp in 2017 and when acquired, its production capacity was around 4.5 million tons; today it stands at 4.7 million steel plates, thanks to the investments made.

The company’s annual investment expectation for the next period at the plant in the state of Rio de Janeiro is expected to be close to US$ 100 million, and three companies from Minas Gerais are absorbing these projects: Usiminas Mecânica, Convaço, and Emalto.
According to Ternium’s general manager in Brazil, Fernando Caracoche, the total installed capacity of the plant reaches 5 million tons, but it intends to increase these numbers in the medium term, depending on the rise in international market demand.

Scope of the Contractors

Regarding the investments and execution by Usiminas Mecânica, the production shutdown is scheduled to begin this week and is expected to last eighteen days.
The scope of Usiminas Mecânica involves the restoration of the Electrostatic Precipitator, which aims to improve gas emission levels into the atmosphere.

Regarding Convaço from Ipatinga, the company will be responsible for repair works on the sinter ignition furnace.
Emalto from Timóteo will carry out the construction of an elevator for the blast furnaces of the plant.

Another area receiving substantial investments is the automation sector, with the purchase of 2 robots, costing US$ 6 million, which are replacing human action in high-risk activities.
These replaced employees have been relocated to supervise the activities, and this example will be spread to other plants in Mexico and Argentina.

Scope of the Contractors

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.

Instead of burning or burying old tires, an American city is transforming about 2,000 of them into the street itself, paving its first sections with a quieter and more durable rubber asphalt.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Astronomers discover black hole wind traveling at 323 million km/h, a speed equivalent to 30% of the speed of light and considered a record.

China activates a 35.6-tesla super magnet in Beijing, surpassing Earth’s magnetic field by 700,000 times and opening a new phase in the race for semiconductors, clean energy, and extreme science.

Between four giant rocks and without electricity, a stone house built in 1974 in the Serras de Fafe in Portugal impresses by using natural granite as the structure of the dwelling.

Stone tower in Scotland is over 2,000 years old, about 13 meters high, was built without mortar on a remote island, and still intrigues archaeologists about its true function.

Far beyond the melting ice in the Arctic, a study reveals that carbon hidden in deep layers of permafrost may escape sooner than expected and turn frozen soils into a new source of CO₂.

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.
