Urban expansion and infrastructure renewal across Latin America are generating unprecedented volumes of construction and demolition (C&D) waste. Traditionally, this material has been a burden—occupying valuable landfill space, creating environmental liabilities, and representing a lost economic opportunity. However, a paradigm shift is underway. The region is increasingly turning to ...
As global awareness of environmental sustainability accelerates, industries across the world are redefining how products are designed, manufactured, and operated. One vital sector facing immense pressure to innovate sustainably is heavy equipment manufacturing—especially container gantry cranes, which play a central role in port operations and global supply chains.Traditionally, these industrial ...
Excel is an excellent tool for quick checks, basic charts, and ad-hoc analysis. But environmental programs don’t fail because teams can’t “analyze.” They fail when data governance breaks: multiple sites, multiple labs, recurring compliance cycles, and many hands touching the same dataset. That’s the pivot point where organisations start evaluating environmental data ...
According to the International Energy Agency's (IEA) global supply chain study on solar photovoltaic, the amount of solar panel waste is projected to reach 400,000 to 600,000 tons by 2030 and increase to 11 million to 15 million tons by 2040. This makes it crucial for governments, industries, and stakeholders to implement circular economy strategies to manage these materials. More than 90% of a ...
The Latin American mining and construction industries have experienced significant growth over the past two decades, driven by urban expansion, infrastructure development, and increased demand for high-quality construction materials. Central to this growth is the evolution of fixed aggregate plants, which have transitioned from serving raw material extraction sites to supplying commercial-grade ...
The STEREO (Effective point-of-use Sterilization of medical equipment using Ethylene Oxide) project was an 18-month research initiative funded by GCRF, aimed at developing an innovative on-demand production system for ethylene oxide (EO) from ethanol. The project brought together researchers from the University of Cambridge (UoC), University of Johannesburg (UJ), and Botswana Institute for ...
