The waste management and circular economy market of the United States and Canada is in full growth. With new recycling targets that must be reached before 2030 and current recycling values close to 30%, countries and stakeholders should focus on improving waste segregation at source, source separation, materials recovery facility optimization, and ...

Latin America faces several waste management problems, with recycling rates that do not exceed 10%, a large number of open-air dumps, high levels of informality in the workplace, and more than 40% of incorrectly managed waste. Finding a solution to this problem is imperative due to new transformative Mega Trends, such as sustainability and the circ...

Technically, composite material has been used in aviation throughout its history. Currently, high-tech composites are on the rise. Over the last decade, the commercial aerospace sector has had two carbon fiber composite aircraft introduced. The Boeing Company delivered the 787 Dreamliner, with Airbus quickly following suite with its new A350 XWB. ...
