China ha descubierto un negocio extremadamente lucrativo en el Parque Industrial Qingcaowo: la reventa de baterías de coches eléctricos. En talleres semiclandestinos con estrictas medidas de seguridad, pequeños equipos desmontan baterías usadas de marcas como BYD y CATL, recuperando celdas que pueden tener una segunda vida o extrayendo metales valiosos como níquel, cobalto y litio.

Urban logistics services like waste collection significantly impact city sustainability through fuel consumption and emissions. This study introduces the emission-capacitated vehicle routing problem with time windows (E-CVRPTW), which explicitly optimizes both operational costs and environmental impacts through load-dependent fuel consumption modeling. When applied to real-world municipal waste collection, the optimized routing plans reduced fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by 9–11% while lowering total costs by 8–9%.

Humus Compost Manure: Boost Soil With Organic Humus

Large-scale composting in agriculture could slash farm waste by up to 35% globally by 2026, while crop cycling offers farmers a powerful soil improvement strategy. Research shows that implementing crop rotation practices can boost soil organic matter by 20% in just one growing season, delivering significant sustainability benefits to modern farming operations.

Green waste compost offers promising solutions for agricultural sustainability in salt-stressed environments. Research demonstrates that applying compost at 30 t ha⁻¹ increased wheat grain yield by 31.58% under moderate salinity conditions, while significantly improving soil fertility through enhanced potassium and calcium availability. This sustainable approach not only mitigates salinity stress but also reduces dependency on chemical fertilizers, presenting a viable strategy for maintaining food security in arid regions.

QA: Turning waste into fuel and chemicals—practical application through collaboration

Miami-Dade County is testing a massive oven at the South Dade Landfill that transforms wood waste into biochar, an innovative solution for reducing landfill waste. The process not only prevents methane emissions from decomposing organic matter but also produces a versatile material that can clean water, enrich soil, and be used in construction. This first-of-its-kind facility on a landfill represents a significant step toward the county’s zero waste goals.

A ⁠Tupy (TUPY3) e o grupo Vamos (VAMO3) anunciaram nesta sexta-feira (30) parceria para a ‌produção de caminhões e ônibus com motores a biometano e gás natural.

A Tupy, que ‌detém a fabricante ‌de motores MWM, afirmou que o primeiro projeto com a Vamos envolve 100 ‌caminhões a serem entregues a partir ​deste ano e usados em coleta de resíduos urbanos no Rio de Janeiro.

A MWM será responsável pelo fornecimento da tecnologia de propulsão — incluindo motor, ​sistema ⁠de ⁠armazenamento, válvulas e linhas de ‌combustível -– enquanto a BMB, unidade da Vamos, fará a ‍aquisição dos veículos e a instalação dos ​componentes ‌através de sua linha de ‍preparação de veículos especiais, afirmou a Tupy, em comunicado ao mercado.

Segundo a Vamos, os caminhões transformados apresentam desempenho equivalente aos modelos a diesel e possuem melhor custo operacional, embora a empresa não tenha citado detalhes.

“Ao aliar tecnologia, eficiência operacional e impacto ambiental positivo, abrimos caminhos para uma nova era da mobilidade pesada no Brasil”, afirma Gustavo Couto, CEO da Vamos, em comunicado ao mercado.”
