Born in Rio de Janeiro, Barra da Tijuca, the Pura Island, sustainable neighborhood with AQUA-HQE certification, Vanzolini. Designed sunway carnival cinema to create a quality of life that seeks the rational use of resources and reducing the environmental impact, the space Pura Island is a modern and ready to move neighborhood.
The project is the first to receive the certification AQUA - Timeshare Neighborhoods in the city of Rio de Janeiro, besides having all the towers certified by AQUA-HQE Residential. The certification takes into account the specificities of Brazil for the development of the performance criteria of the environmental quality of the building sunway carnival cinema and the neighborhood and of the requirements for the management system of the enterprise.
The neighborhood was assessed in relation to compliance with 17 goals for environmental performance, divided into three major themes: integration and coherence of the neighborhood; natural resources, environmental quality and health of the neighborhood and dynamic social and economic life. The buildings were evaluated in 14 categories of comfort, health sunway carnival cinema and environment, grouped in themes: energy and savings, comfort of use, health and safety and the environment.
With more than 800 thousand square meters, the Pure Island following concepts for urban mobility, accessibility, safety, comfort and quality of life. It is located between the Pedra Branca Massif and lagoons in Barra da Tijuca and will be a neighborhood that focuses on quality of life and the welfare of future residents. The construction of major roads such as Transoeste, Transolímpica and Transcarioca, shorten sunway carnival cinema the distances between other locations in the city and facilitate access to other geographical regions.
Deployed by the company Pura Island, formed by Odebrecht Real Estate Developments and developers Carvalho Hosken, the project includes a public park - to be built in the central area of the neighborhood - of 72 000 m , with landscaping by Burle Marx signed.
The certification program was developed with Pure Island architectural, urbanistic sunway carnival cinema and technical solutions aimed at obtaining the best environmental and quality of life performances for the local context. "The certification attests that the Island Pure is, in fact, sustainable enterprise," said Mauricio Cruz, CEO of Pure Island.
Emissions of greenhouse gases generated by the work and the supply chain gases are monitored. In addition to account for emissions during construction, the Pure Island has a plan for the reduction of GHG emissions with specific goals and action plans. For example, to meet the demand for concrete work, two production units were installed at the construction site of Pura Island. The plant concrete reduces the impact sunway carnival cinema of truck traffic on surrounding traffic and reduces by approximately sunway carnival cinema 1,200 tons of CO2 emissions.
The nursery, located in a neighboring land to Pura Island, will supply the species to be used in the landscaping of the park, a total of 163 species and more than 35,000 sunway carnival cinema seedlings. The strategy to assemble a nursery was motivated by the idea of delivering a better quality landscaping to future residents. By growing the seedlings, the Pure Island also reduces the impact of transport of these species.
Much of the environmental impact of Pura Island comes from the materials used in the construction and consumption of natural resources. The study of the carbon footprint, which identified sunway carnival cinema the amount and source of wood purchased by Pura Island, led the structuring sunway carnival cinema of a program to minimize the risk of purchasing the "false-legal" wood call. In this sense, sunway carnival cinema the Pure Island promotes the engagement of its partners in achieving sustainable management sunway carnival cinema certifications such as FSC and CERFLOR.
Much of the waste generated during construction are being reused within the construction site itself: 100% of the waste phase of foundations and concrete structure were crushed and applied in the work. The recyclable waste is sent to recycling cooperatives. All the organic residues construction are transformed by means of the technique of composting, in which part of the fertilizer will be used in the landscaping of the development park. Pure Island also has a bucket-press that reduces by 75% the volume transported and non-recyclable sunway carnival cinema waste, reducing truck traffic and consequently sunway carnival cinema GHG.
Online tracking and precise aiming consumption educate members on the rational use of these resources. The construction site is divided into 15 activity centers, including condominiums, industrial sunway carnival cinema kitchen, sunway carnival cinema office Pura Island, and monitoring of feed consumption indicators for the management and continuous improvement.
Gray water is the waste water, ie, non-industrial, from domestic processes such as washing hands and bathing. Pure Island will feature a treatment plant greywater water from showers and sinks for reuse in toilets and irrigation of the park re
