In the next few days, Mo Li's team and the team from the School of Life Sciences of Jiangcheng University of Technology began to design experimental protocols and ideas.

In fact, most of them are led by Mo Li's team, and most of the teachers and students of the School of Life Sciences of Jiangcheng University of Technology are working to help.

The main reason is that the origin group has the most advanced technology of microorganisms, and the team of Jiangcheng Institute of Technology is still a long way from the requirements of the experiment.

But it doesn't matter.

The most important purpose of school-enterprise cooperation is to hope that students can participate in the experiment and feel the atmosphere of the experiment.

No matter what, Zhou Xiao is also the honorary dean of the School of Life Sciences of Jiangcheng University of Technology, and he also has the authority of the vice president, so it is certain to help.

After accurate measurement, the vacant land behind the office building of Jiangcheng Institute of Technology has a total of three acres, and the location is still not small.

According to the plan, the experimental team invited workers to clear all the garbage on the three acres of land and pile it in the first fixed place.

It is now impossible to get the merchants in the university town and the workers who transport the garbage not to pile up the garbage here.

Therefore, in the place of the other party's garbage, the school has specially opened up a place to throw garbage, which is convenient for the merchants in the university town and standardizes the place to throw garbage.

It took a week for the site to be cleared.

Then came construction.

The construction of laboratories and training bases is mainly made of steel structure buildings.

This type of building is easy to construct and can be expanded or repurposed in the future.

The structure of the waste treatment and microbial power generation laboratory was planned and divided into these sections.

The first is a garbage dump point.

The second is a multi-stage colony treatment tank.

The third is the ionized bacterial hair battery.

The fourth is the sewage and waste discharge tank.

According to the design of the experimental team, the final sewage or waste matter must be inorganic substances that cannot be digested by the colony.

Here comes the controversy over the experiment.

Some laboratory personnel directly proposed to throw garbage directly into the ionized bacteria, so that the ionized bacteria could directly use organic matter to generate electricity.

It's easy to do, but it's not very waste-efficient.

This is because ionized bacteria can generate electricity from food waste, but they cannot decompose organic matter with higher molecular weight.

Finally, the plan is to use the multi-polar colony pool to decompose all the organic matter, and decompose the macromolecular organic matter into small molecule organic matter or carbon compounds.

These are then fed into the colony pool of the alien digestive bacteria, which synthesize them into high-energy substances.

Finally, these high-energy substances are fed into the colony pool of ionized bacteria, so that the ionized bacteria can generate electricity.

Some time ago, Mo Li's laboratory conducted research on digestive bacteria of the opposite sex, and great progress was made.

Nowadays, heterogeneous digesters can not only directly combine small molecule organic matter as macromolecular high-energy substances, but also synthesize high-energy organic substances from carbon compounds in solution (mainly carbon dioxide and carbonate ions soluble in water, etc.).

Heterogenetic bacteria are currently colonies of a variety of heterosexual digestive bacteria, rather than a single type of bacteria.

Heterogeneous digestive bacteria have this new ability mainly due to the genes of the green silk fungus, which can absorb carbon dioxide from the blood and the air, and use photosynthesis to synthesize sugars.

Zhou Xiao said: "Then the current test sequence should be like this: macromolecular organic matter - small molecular organic matter and shouting carbon compounds (plastic products are strongly decomposed into carbon dioxide, water and a variety of salts) - high-energy organic matter - power generation." ”

The students who came to participate in the experiment asked:

"Dean Zhou, didn't we repeat some steps in doing this? We turn the macromolecular organic matter into small molecule organic matter, and then use the small molecule organic matter to synthesize high-energy organic matter with heteromorphic digestion bacteria, and then hand over the high-energy organic matter to ionized bacteria to generate electricity? Why not skip the step of synthesizing high-energy organic matter and directly use small molecule organic matter to generate electricity? ”

It's a good thing that the students love to ask questions, and it proves that they are engaged in the experiment and are thinking positively.

Zhou Xiao said: "Please ask Team Leader Mo Li to answer this question." ”

Mo Li nodded and said: "You may not pay attention to the type of garbage, we should make it clear that the garbage that can be used for ionizing bacteria to generate electricity must be organic garbage." And organic garbage, what is more? Food waste and plastic products, including plastic bags and bottles that cannot be recycled. ”

Mo Li explained: "Among them, the kitchen waste area can be directly dumped into the pool of ionized bacteria to generate electricity directly, while our plastic waste cannot be decomposed by ionized bacteria, only through strong digestion bacteria to decompose into carbon compounds, and then by special-shaped digestion bacteria to synthesize organic matter, so that it can be used by ionized bacteria." ”

"The laboratory is differentiating and cultivating ionized bacteria, and we hope that one day we can let ionizing bacteria directly decompose plastic products, so that we can save a lot of trouble."

"We use multi-pole colonies, which is more cumbersome and has energy loss, but the efficiency of power generation will be higher and the speed will be faster."

The students immediately understood the reasoning and said, "If you ask people to separate kitchen waste and plastic waste in the garbage heap, the workload is large, and the separation will not be so clean." ”

"Whether garbage classification is done at the front end or at the back end is indeed a problem, but as far as the current situation in Xia Guo is concerned, the front-end garbage classification is actually not done well."

Students often see several garbage cans at school.

What is recyclable, non-recyclable, etc.

But when the garbage truck comes to collect the garbage, it doesn't matter how you sort it, or you still put all the garbage together.

The microbial power generation laboratory is not a traditional garbage disposal station, and does not have the back-end garbage sorting capacity.

You can't have students wearing gloves and looking for what they can and can't recycle in a pile of garbage after school every day.

Zhou Xiao added: "At the beginning, ionized bacteria were only designed to be used on mobile phones, and some parts of the battery compartment were organic plastic parts, and if we had designed ionized bacteria to have strong decomposition ability, the mobile phone would have been melted down long ago." ”

Now the students know that there is an allusion to ionized bacteria.

Another student asked, "According to the law of conservation of energy, the energy that can be released in garbage is actually certain, in fact, combustion can release the most energy, why don't we directly incinerate garbage but use such troublesome means?" ”
