Maasvlakte 2 Rotterdam, The Netherlands
With Maasvlakte 2, the ambition of the Port of Rotterdam Authority is to be a global leader in the field of sustainability. To achieve this ambition, the Port of Rotterdam Authority offers every opportunity to innovative technologies that lead to the sustainable and successful development of the new port and industrial area.
The Port Authority has a long tradition in applying advanced technologies and processes, of which there are ample examples in the current port, including the Euromax-terminal and the innovative communication system Portbase. For Maasvlakte 2, we have raised the bar even higher. We want the new port and industrial area to become the most sustainable and innovative port in the world. Not an unrealistic ambition for a port that has literally been recovered from the sea and where sustainability and innovation can be built into each component.
The Port Authority has set strict requirements in terms of sustainability for companies wishing to locate on Maasvlakte 2. The Port Authority makes clear agreements with the companies about air quality, noise and cleaner hinterland transport, but also about the efficient use (or reuse) of energy, each other's waste heat, waste materials and semi-manufactured products. Companies also recognise the need to tackle environmental problems and seek new forms of sustainable management. In addition, they see opportunities to increase their efficiency. As a result, Maasvlakte 2 is a showcase which demonstrates that sustainability and economic growth are perfectly compatible.
The container terminals on Maasvlakte 2 are the most modern and advanced terminals in the world. The terminals are fully electric, from the Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) to the quay cranes. The terminal of APM Terminals runs entirely on power generated by wind turbines. At Rotterdam World Gateway, buildings are equipped with thermal storage. The connection with the Betuwe Route has also been taken into consideration: the terminals are ready for the new division of the hinterland transport across the most sustainable transport modes. One of these transport modes is inland shipping, which is why the new terminals are the first with a quay specifically designed for inland vessels.
From Rotterdam, most containers are transported to their destination by truck. This puts considerable pressure on the motorways around Rotterdam and elsewhere. Furthermore, emissions from trucks reduce the air quality. The way transportation to the hinterland is divided between the various transport modes is called the modal split. Through a variety of projects, the Port Authority aims to increase the transport of containers by rail and inland shipping. This redirecting of transport from trucks to trains and inland vessels is called the modal shift. Companies that are allowed to locate on Maasvlakte 2 commit themselves to the imposed modal shift.
An 80-hectare site has been reserved on Maasvlakte 2 to accommodate biochemistry companies. Chemicals based on natural raw materials will be produced here in the future. At the bio-based cluster on Maasvlakte 2, companies can optimally benefit from each other's presence. Together with four partners, the Port Authority is realising Plug & Play facilities in the Bio-based Cluster. Thanks to this initiative, companies do not need to invest individually in the supply of energy, energy networks, tank storage and wastewater, process water and drinking water.
LR-11218 - Sheffield candid's still bucket loads to go ye, but this I liked, guy with the book holding a music player being listen to by his friend on his mobile phone. The double bonus of just sat on the pavement and getting on with it
This thing is the best 20 bucks I've spent in a good long while. (Well, it was on sale for $20—normally $25.) It's a kit that allows any IDE or SATA hard drive—3.5" or 2.5"—to be connected via USB without a cumbersome enclosure. This is perfect for drives that contain data that isn't used often and the drive is boxed up in storage. For the rare times when the data is needed, rather than deal with the gyrations of mounting it in an enclosure, I simply attach the adapter and power cable. Voila!
Saw these old instruments on a shelf in a warehouse and I was struck by how far technology has come even in my lifetime.

very preliminary... I've been slowly adding to this, needed to do *something* creative today..... this started out just as a map of some technology trends I research and talk about (see techtrendsineducation.wikispaces.com/ and treglia.wikispaces.com/)....
but then I started think, hmmmm, well what about the roads above the subway? I'm interested in more than just technology (contrary to what some people would believe lol).... and when I started adding some interests on my "map" I realized that the "See One, Do One, Teach One, Share One" graphic I had made kinda goes very nicely....
going to keep working on this one, eventually I'd like to add this or something like it to the visual cv I started working on (www.flickr.com/photos/krillion/16268033555/)...
