CIRCULAR ECONOMY // Technology applied to environmental preservation

Greetings to the members of the chain of blocks with the greatest impact on technological, scientific, economic and social content. These lines of writing are intended to address the issue of circular technology applied as a mechanism to counteract the levels of affliction that human activities have caused on our planet for the development and welfare of humanity. This publication will be shared by the @project.hope community, who have become pioneers in these areas.

Therefore, if we approach conceptually the process of an economic circular, we must mention that mechanism or strategy that uses as a basis the scientific and technological processes to improve the production of goods and services produced by man, at the same time, it focuses its attention on the reuse of waste generated in industrial activities and produced by the consumer, which allows reducing the waste of energy, water or raw materials.

The principle of application of the process, is not to stop producing or developing activities that improve or facilitate the life of humanity, on the contrary it is focused on the stimulation of the principles of research, development and innovation (R + D + I) and where sufficient economic capital is injected in these areas, so that we can create technology for the care and preservation of the environment.

One of the aspects is to work continuously on substantial advances in bioeconomics so that we can advance in the efficient use of fungi, bacteria or any living material that allows the degradation of solid waste and disasters such as oil spills that have occurred throughout the use of fossil fuels.

Similarly, the implementation of the bio-economy and its correlation with the technological processes has allowed to reinforce the use of fuels with less carbon dioxide emissions to the air, in addition, it has allowed to develop a consolidated agriculture in view of the changes that the planet has been suffering and where we can observe crops that are adapted to the seasons of drought and others that have been adapted to the seasons of flooding, achievement that has been able to be seen reflected thanks to the genetic modification of the species.

In relation to the use of clean energy, the advances achieved through (R+D+I), have allowed the development of electric cars that in some cases take advantage of solar radiation and transform it into fuel to be able to function, which demonstrates the autonomy of this sophisticated equipment.

From my perception, the crucial part of this concept called, "circular economy" is the integration of the waste produced in an effective mechanism that allows to incorporate them in a dynamic way in the production of products or equipment with an added value, in other words, that they are integrated again to the manufacturing processes and production of materials, giving it a second use that allows to diminish the patterns of overconsumption and the levels of contamination that at the moment afflict our planet.

A practical example of this process is the transformation of waste generated by the sugar industry, which uses as biomass the waste from sugar cane that has been processed, which allows the generation of biofuels and a second use of this waste, which shows that research and innovation are the basis for a harmonious development with the planet.

In this sense, I invite you to leave your opinion in the comments section about the principles that have been emerging and that are seen as an opportunity for environmental welfare.
