Abstract This paper analyzes new technologies and innovations implemented in major European ports to improve their logistics operations and their relevance in the study of sustainability in the operational processes of the Port of Santos, Brazil. The study focuses on the reduction of emissions of pollutant gases such as sulfur oxides (SOx), nitrogen oxides (NOx), atmospheric particulate matter (PM), and carbon dioxide (CO2). This research studies the port operations of world reference and analyzes the current situation of port logistics operations in Brazil’s largest port, the Port of Santos, São Paulo, and evaluates the processes and technologies currently implemented that contribute to sustainable port logistics operations. The paper deals with possible innovations in the logistics operations of transport, storage, and handling of goods. It analyzes the resources used in the port management of the Port of Santos. It also examines the use of renewable technologies that reduce the emission of polluting gases into the atmosphere and improve the efficiency of operations, such as: Transport technologies: Focused on projects related to transport technologies that involve different types of equipment Transport and logistics solutions: Solutions that integrate different parts to promote efficiency and, at the same time, reduce environmental impacts.
