ISebe lezaMandla lase-US ligqibezele ummiselo ngo-Epreli ka-2022 othintela abathengisi ukuba bathengise iiglowubhu ze-incandescent, kunye nokuvalwa okuza kuqala ukusebenza nge-1 ka-Agasti ka-2023.

ISebe lezaMandla sele libongoze abathengisi ukuba baqalise ukutshintshela ekuthengiseni ezinye iintlobo zezibane zebhalbhu kwaye sele iqalile ukukhupha izaziso ezilumkisa iinkampani kwiinyanga ezidlulileyo.

Ngokwesibhengezo seSebe lezaMandla, ummiselo kulindeleke ukuba usindise abathengi malunga ne-3 yeebhiliyoni zeedola kwiindleko zombane ngonyaka kwiminyaka engama-30 ezayo kunye nokunciphisa ukukhutshwa kwekhabhoni ngeetoni ze-222 yezigidi ze-metric.

Ngaphantsi kommiselo, ii-bulb ze-incandescent kunye nee-halogen ezifanayo ziya kuvinjelwa, zitshintshwe ngama-diode okukhanya okukhanyayo (ii-LED).

Uphando lubonise ukuba i-54% yamakhaya aseMerika anengeniso yonyaka edlula i-$ 100,000 isebenzisa ii-LED, ngelixa kuphela i-39% yalabo abanengeniso ye-20,000 yeedola okanye ngaphantsi. Oku kuphakamisa ukuba imimiselo ezayo yamandla iya kuba nefuthe elihle ekwamkelweni kwee-LEDs kuwo onke amaqela engeniso.

I-Chile Yazisa iSicwangciso seSizwe soPhuhliso lweZibonelelo zeLithium

Ngomhla wama-20 ku-Epreli, uMongameli waseChile wakhupha i-press release ebhengeza iSicwangciso soPhuhliso lweLithium yelizwe, echaza ukuba isizwe siya kuthatha inxaxheba kuyo yonke inkqubo yophuhliso lobutyebi be-lithium.

Esi sicwangciso sibandakanya intsebenziswano yoluntu-yabucala ukuphuhlisa ngokudibeneyo ishishini lezemigodi ye-lithium, ngenjongo yokukhuthaza uphuhliso loqoqosho lwaseChile kunye notshintsho oluluhlaza ngokukhula kwamashishini abalulekileyo. Amanqaku aphambili esi sicwangciso zezi zilandelayo:

Ukusekwa kweNkampani yeLithium yeSizwe yeMigodi: Urhulumente uya kuqulunqa izicwangciso zexesha elide kunye nemimiselo ecacileyo kwinqanaba ngalinye lemveliso ye-lithium, ukusuka ekuhlolisweni ukuya kwixabiso elongezelelweyo. Ekuqaleni, esi sicwangciso siza kuphunyezwa yiNkampani yeSizwe yeKopha (iCodelco) kunye neNkampani yeSizwe yezeMigodi (Enami), kunye nophuhliso lweshishini oluza kukhokelwa yiNkampani yeSizwe yeMigodi yeLithium ekusekweni kwayo, ukutsala utyalo-mali kwicandelo labucala kunye nokwandisa umthamo wemveliso. .

Ukudalwa kweLithium yeSizwe kunye neSati Flat Technology Research Institute: Eli ziko liya kuqhuba uphando kwiiteknoloji zemveliso yezemigodi ye-lithium ukomeleza ukukhuphisana koshishino kunye nokuzinza, ukutsala utyalo-mali kwimigodi ye-lithium kunye namashishini anxulumeneyo.

Ezinye iziKhokelo zokuPhunyezwa: Ukuqinisa unxibelelwano kunye nokulungelelaniswa kunye nabachaphazelekayo abahlukeneyo kunye nokuqinisekisa ukukhuselwa kweendawo zokuhlala zetyuwa kuphuhliso oluzinzileyo lweshishini, urhulumente waseChile uya kuphumeza amanyathelo amaninzi, kubandakanywa nokuphucula unxibelelwano lomgaqo-nkqubo weshishini, ukuseka uthungelwano lokukhusela ityuwa olusingqongileyo, ukuhlaziya izikhokelo zolawulo, ukwandisa intatho-nxaxheba yesizwe kwimisebenzi yokuvelisa ityuwa eflethi, kunye nokuhlola iiflethi zetyuwa ezongezelelweyo.

I-Thailand izakukhupha uludwe olutsha lwezithako zokuthambisa ezivaliweyo

I-Thai Food and Drug Administration (FDA) isandula ukutyhila izicwangciso zokuvala ukusetyenziswa kwe-perfluoroalkyl kunye ne-polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) kwizinto zokuthambisa.

Isibhengezo esisayilwayo siye sajongwa kwakhona yiKomiti yezoQoqosho yaseThai kwaye kungoku nje kucetywa utyikityo lwabaphathiswa.

Olu hlaziyo luphenjelelwe sisindululo esikhutshwe liGunyabantu loKhuseleko lokuSingqongileyo laseNew Zealand ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka. Ngo-Matshi, igunya licebise isicwangciso sokuphelisa ukusetyenziswa kwe-perfluoroalkyl kunye ne-polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) kwizinto zokuthambisa ngo-2025 ukuthobela imimiselo ye-European Union.

Ukwakha kule nto, i-Thai FDA ilungiselela ukukhulula uluhlu oluhlaziyiweyo lwezithako zokuthambisa ezivaliweyo, kubandakanywa iintlobo ze-13 ze-PFAS kunye ne-derivatives yazo.

Iintshukumo ezifanayo zokuvalwa kwePFAS eThailand naseNew Zealand zibonisa imeko ekhulayo phakathi koorhulumente ukuqinisa ummiselo kwiikhemikhali ezinobungozi kwiimveliso zabathengi, ngokugxila okwandisiweyo kwimpilo yoluntu kunye nokukhuselwa kwendalo.

Iinkampani zezithambiso kufuneka zibeke esweni ngokusondeleyo uhlaziyo lwezithako zokuthambisa, zomeleze ukuzihlola ngexesha lemveliso yemveliso kunye neenkqubo zokuthengisa, kwaye ziqinisekise ukuba iimveliso zazo ziyahambelana neemfuno zolawulo kwiimarike ezijolise kuzo.
