La primera planta de conversión de residuos en energía de América Latina está operando en la Ciudad de Cancún al 100% desde el pasado 20 de Agosto del 2015.
Esta planta, evitará la emisión de 900 toneladas de CO2 a la atmósfera por año y es un proyecto público-privado en el que participan como socios las multinacionales Tratamientos de Residuos Sólidos Urbanos quien es la encargada de garantizar el montaje de la infraestructura tecnológica y HURST Boiler & Welding, Co. quien es la dueña de la patente de la tecnología para la combustión de residuos sólidos Municipales.
El ingeniero mecánico Alemán, Oliver Hoffman, explicó a la agencia Notimex el proyecto en Cancún, durante la Conferencia Panamericana Waste To Energy 2016, que se realiza en Medellín, Colombia.
El ingeniero señaló que a diferencia de otros Países en 2010 TRS / HURST hicieron una propuesta conjunta a los Municipios de Mérida en Yucatán y a Benito Juárez en Quintana Roo para una invitar a las Municipalidades a tratar los residuos sólidos dando el primer paso para montar las dos primeras plantas de WTE (Waste to Energy).
“El 99% de los Municipios en México tienen botaderos de basura. No hay ningún tratamiento y la ley no obliga que las autoridades locales desarrollen proyectos a favor del medio ambiente", explicó el experto Alemán, quien tiene un master mecánico de la Universidad de Barcelona (España).
Las plantas de conversión de residuos en energía, conocidas como Waste To Energy (WTE), se están convirtiendo en una necesidad para garantizar energías limpias hacia el futuro, en especial en América Latina, una de las regiones más rezagadas en el tratamiento de residuos sólidos urbanos.
La planta esta localizada en un espacio creado y destinado especialmente para tratar 1,200 toneladas de residuos diariamente, en una área de 67,237 metros cuadrados.
Tendrá una capacidad de generación eléctrica de hasta 20 MWth, con una salida de vapor de caldera de 76,500 kg/h.
"Evitara la emisión de 900,000 toneladas de CO2 en la atmósfera por año. El 90% de los residuos convertidos en energía eléctrica beneficiará a 80,000 residencias ó al alumbrado público de la mundialmente famosa zona turística, logrando importantes ahorros para el Municipio", subrayó el experto.
Aseguró que las plantas WTE "permiten reducir hasta en un 90% el volumen de los residuos, utilizando tecnologías de alto rendimiento, con seguridad ambiental probada".
Las WTE utilizan sólo materiales no reciclables de lo recolectado en forma selectiva y se presentan como una parte complementaria de la cadena de reciclaje.
Este tipo de instalaciones –dijo– contribuyen "a la reducción de gases de efecto invernadero a la atmósfera. En el proceso de operación se garantiza una baja generación de metano, que se produce en la descomposición de las materias orgánicas presentes en las basuras".

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

"Where in the World" Exhibit
October 7 -- November 27
Opening Reception: October 14, 7 – 10 pm
Toby Kamps’ Juror Statement about the Exhibit: “It was tough to select works for the Mpls Photo
Center’s “Where in the World” competition. The title was intentionally vague, aiming to lure a broad
range of artists and approaches, and it succeeded in that aim. Whether it felt like the product of a
seasoned pro or an inspired amateur, each submission was a heartfelt stab at expressing the
beauty and mystery of planet earth. A great number of images, however, fell in the categories of
landscape and travel photography, and that’s where I had trouble. The problem is that my personal
version of the sublime exists primarily in the interpersonal bubble—ordinary people doing ordinary
things all around the world. The countless gorgeous, technically and compositionally skilled
mountaintop landscapes, tropical sunsets and exotic pageants submitted by artists far more
adventurous and well traveled than I usually didn’t grab me. In an age supersaturated with ravishing
photographic imagery, it’s exceedingly difficult to make something that feels fresh and genuine. As
camera technology advances, it’s as if Mother Nature makes the uncanny valley ever wider. In a
real sense, the more perfect an image is, the less believable it becomes. And when photographers
switch on high dynamic range or dial in heavy digital aftereffects, my eyes glaze over. I wonder
whether they are seeing the world with their own eyes or through the minds of engineering
geniuses in Yokohama and Palo Alto. Sifting through the panoply of amazing images from all
corners of the world, I was rapt by photographs that felt like corner-of-the-eye haikus—magical
grab shots of interesting faces, street corners and local spirits. Time and again, I found a rare
blend of just-good-enough greatness—a kind of excellent Keith Richards-esque “bad guitar” in
photographic form. So give me a fast photograph of a local face or place, something loose and
soulful that catalogues one of the countless mini-epiphanies that come at us every time we walk
down the street. This is what I hope “Where in the World” captures.”

A SIP OF SCIENCE – A Climate for Change: Agriculture and Water Quality in Minnesota
Wednesday, October 12, 5:30 pm
Aster Cafe, 125 SE Main Street, St. Anthony Main
A SIP OF SCIENCE bridges the gap between science and culture in a setting that bridges the gap
between brain and belly. Food, beer and learning are on the menu in a happy hour forum that puts
science in context through storytelling. In recent decades, our growing realization of how we pollute
our waterways has led to regulation of the most obvious pollution sources. Cities have updated
their wastewater treatment systems, and industry can no longer dump their waste products into
waterways. But what about non-point sources of pollution that trickle into rivers, streams and lakes
from multiple different sources? What are the cumulative impacts of that pollution on our
waterways? Historically, Minnesota has relied on voluntary incentives to reduce non-point water
pollution. Norman Senjem, recently retired from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, says that
voluntary measures are no longer enough. In the October Sip of Science, Norman discusses how
non-point pollution is severely impacting Minnesota waterways and what steps can be made to
address this growing problem by creating new regulation and incentives to hold polluters
accountable as well as broadening the context for developing solutions to agricultural pollution. The
talk takes place during happy hour at the Aster Café. Food and drink will be available for purchase.

*****Participation, Input and Stewardship Opportunities*****
Park Board Seeks Input on RiverFIRST Plan
The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board has extended its extensive community engagement
process for the Minneapolis Riverfront Development Initiative to include a formal 45-day public
comment period (through November 6, 2011). Park Board Planning Services staff proposed the
resolution approving this process following the presentation and acceptance of the MR|DI team’s
draft RiverFIRST: A Park Design Proposal and Implementation Framework for the Minneapolis
Upper Riverfront report earlier in the board meeting. “The expertise and creativity demonstrated by
our project team in the RiverFIRST proposals and implementation recommendations has been
exceptional,” says Assistant Superintendent for Planning Services, Bruce Chamberlain. “We have
received tremendous public and private support for the initiative and believe it’s appropriate to
continue these efforts through a 45-day public comment period on the draft proposal before the
Board considers a set of next-step actions later this year.” Likely next-step recommendations Park
Board staff anticipate putting forward in November or December are the adoption of the
RiverFIRST proposal, schematic design for a phase-1 construction project and a joint effort with
the City of Minneapolis to meld the RiverFIRST plan with revisions to the Above the Falls zoning
policies currently under review. The public can download the Draft RiverFIRST Proposal from http://
MinneapolisRiverfrontDevelopmentInitiative.com, where they can also submit comments. The
public can also read a reference copy of the proposal, take home the executive summary and
submit their comments at any of the Park Board’s recreation centers, as well as at Park Board
headquarters, 2117 West River Road.
Public Hearing on New Policy Proposed to Enhance Community Engagement for
Minneapolis Park Projects
Wednesday, October 5, 6:30 pm
Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board, 2117 West River Road
The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) has developed a draft new policy and
ordinance amendment related to how it involves the community in park projects and will host a
public hearing for these proposed changes on October 5. The policy and amended ordinance on
community engagement are designed to improve practices for how the MPRB works and
9. Posted by http://MillCityTimes.com
communicates with Minneapolis residents and park users, especially for capital projects involving
the construction or redevelopment of park facilities. In 2010 and throughout 2011, various
community outreach methods were utilized to gather opinion from the community in development of
the new policy and amended ordinance. Individuals and community groups were invited to share
their thoughts though an online survey, public meetings, focus group discussions and print
questionnaires available at recreation centers. Staff interviewed residents at community events
such as neighborhood socials, movies and concerts in the parks. Upon first draft, the public was
invited to review and comment on the documents during a 45-day period. Community input was
incorporated into the new policy and amended ordinance and is now proposed for approval by the
Board of Commissioners. For additional information on this effort, please visit the Park Board
website at: http://www.minneapolisparks.org/default.asp?PageID=125.
