Rio de Janeiro Hosts International Seminar on Nuclear Energy

The XIV International Seminar on Nuclear Energy (SIEN) begins its activities in Rio de Janeiro, discussing the vital importance of nuclear power plants in combatting the use of fossil fuels. Experts from various fields will gather at the Society of Engineers and Architects of Rio de Janeiro (SEAERJ), in the Glória neighborhood, to debate faster and more cost-effective nuclear constructions.

This event, taking place from November 21 to 23, aims to clarify doubts and combat prejudice regarding nuclear energy, considered a crucial ally in the pursuit of sustainable energy sources. Simultaneously, the VI ENCOM (Nuclear Sector Communication Meeting) will also be held, followed by a technical visit to the Angra dos Reis Nuclear Power Plant.

The Revolution of Small Modular Reactors

Paulo Maurício Senra, a researcher from GESEL/UFRJ, will highlight the role of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) on the first day of the seminar. SMRs represent a significant shift in the design of nuclear plants, offering modular solutions manufactured on assembly lines. This can result in substantial reductions in costs and construction time compared to traditional plants, in addition to being non-emitting sources of greenhouse gases.

Important Debates and Renowned Speakers

The seminar will feature discussions on various aspects of nuclear energy. Orpet Peixoto, president of INSC, will discuss the global landscape of nuclear energy. John Forman from J. Forman Consulting will moderate a debate on construction costs and timelines, with participation from specialists from Eletronuclear and EPE.

Niágara Rodrigues from UFF will discuss safety, waste management, and public acceptance of SMRs. The event opening will feature Luís Fernando Paroli, CEO of ENBPAR.

Future of Nuclear Energy in Brazil

The second day of the seminar will focus on the future of Angra 3 and Angra 4, with participation from João Pedro Leal of SEENEMAR/RJ and Marcelo Gomes from Eletronuclear. Additionally, the support of the national industry for the Brazilian Nuclear Program will be a key topic, featuring leaders from ABIMAQ and ABEMI.

The last day of the event will question whether there has been progress in communication with society about the nuclear sector. Bernardo Mendes Barata from ABEN and other experts will discuss alternatives for disseminating knowledge in nuclear sciences, as well as safety and transparency in the sector.

The SIEN will take place in person and will also be streamed online, with simultaneous translation, allowing for a global reach. Registration will be available on the first day of the event, providing a unique opportunity for professionals and enthusiasts in the field of nuclear energy to update themselves and contribute to the debate on a more sustainable future less dependent on fossil fuels.

Billions of barrels on the equatorial margin could lead Amapá to double its oil production in Brazil — the state wants to enter the route of companies in the Campos Basin, attract investments, and boost jobs and businesses in the oil and gas sector.

Without bricks, without cement, and without endless construction: the cardboard house that is assembled in modules and can be moved.

Government unlocks R$ 554 million for a highway that has been requested for decades and accelerates the duplication of BR.

Tire road? Thousands of shredded tires were secretly placed under a ramp in California, preventing a one-year delay in a project on weak soil and supporting a 26-foot-high structure in a corridor connected to I-880.

Explorers find Roman treasure trapped between rocks on the seabed for nearly 1,600 years and reveal a desperate attempt to hide 53 gold coins during the invasions of the Empire.

While Russia dominates the global wheat market, Brazil emerges as an unexpected competitor in the Cerrado, offering grain available in July and August when stocks in the Northern Hemisphere are at their lowest point of the year.

Archaeologists discover Roman vase buried for over 2,000 years with more than 175 intact gold and silver coins, revealing a desperate strategy to protect wealth during the collapse of the Empire.

The government puts R$ 8.6 billion on the table to change the highway (BR) with 50 overpasses, 28 bridges, 4 tunnels, and 40 km of bike lanes in 180 km of historic duplication.

With 241 meters, 48 thousand tons, and a structure designed to accompany aircraft carriers at sea, the Chinese ship that refuels fleets in motion was born to push Beijing away from the coast and has become the hidden gear of its naval projection.
