Chapter 255: Cross-Border Strike (Order!) )
In Jiangcheng Science and Technology New Zone, life science and medical laboratories are preparing a new production line.
The line, which was originally a backup line for digestive bacteria, is now being recruited for the construction of ionized bacteria production.
There are two final tests for ionizing bacteria.
A reproduction rate and survival rate, which involves the production cost of ionized bacteria, and the production cost is related to the application of future products.
If the cost of a standard-sized ionized microbial battery is too high, no one will use it even if the technology is advanced.
Taking mobile phone batteries as an example, replacing a lithium battery is only one or two hundred pieces at most, and most consumers can afford it.
If the manufacturing cost of a bio-battery is much higher than that of a lithium battery, then it is difficult to promote. The inability to apply technology is meaningless for Zhou Xiao to increase the monopoly value.
The second test is the success rate.
At present, the laboratory testing of batteries only tests one or two batteries individually, and does not involve a wider range of aspects.
Laboratories need to produce mass-produced bio-cells and run and test them for a long time before they can obtain specific data on the operation of bio-cells, which is the so-called yield rate.
However, laboratory testing does not prevent the publication of academic papers.
A special issue of Biomedical Technology was published.
Yanjing, Institute of Physics, Xia Academy of Sciences.
Director Zou Wentian went to work as he did yesterday.
The Institute of Physics has recently undertaken a new energy project for lithium-sulfur batteries.
In the new energy industry, Xia Guo also belongs to a relatively leading position in the world, which is the inevitable trend of the development of Xia Guo's science and technology industry.
There are two reasons for this.
One is that Xia is still a country with relatively poor traditional energy resources.
Although we are a big oil producer, we are also a big consumer, and the oil produced by Xia is far from being able to meet the needs of industrial and social development, and a large amount of oil depends on imports from overseas.
One of the biggest drawbacks of imported oil is its susceptibility to overseas situations.
Many times, Xia's enterprises have invested billions in oil extraction and refining in a large oil-producing country, but the other party has a war and chaos, and the company has lost all its money.
The second reason is that in the industrial industry based on traditional energy, Xia's science and technology are lagging behind those of the West, and it is necessary to use new energy to overtake.
For example, Xia Guo lags behind the developed countries in the traditional automobile industry, and has been cut leeks by Western countries for decades.
If you want to surpass the Western automobile industry, there is no way for the traditional Zhengbu to catch up with the automobile industry that others have developed for more than 100 years.
The new energy industry is not the industry of an automobile company, nor is it the industry of a battery company, but the collective industry of many enterprises and scientific research institutes in Xia Kingdom.
The lithium-sulfur battery researched by the Institute of Physics of the Summer Academy of Sciences is regarded as one of the ideal choices for the next generation of high-energy-density battery systems.
The project has a research direction, but the process of research and development is very painful.
At present, the key technical bottleneck restricting the practical application of lithium-sulfur batteries is how to achieve low electrolyte consumption, high electrode density and low inactive material content under high active material loading conditions.
This bottleneck is not so easy to break.
Zou Wentian was very unhappy when he looked at the experimental report submitted by the researchers, which still had no results, and his head hurt and he threw the report aside.
Suddenly, Zou Wentian saw a magazine "Biological and Medical Technology" on the table.
See this magazine, Zou Wen
I was stunned.
I am the director of the Institute of Physics, and this office is also the office of the Institute of Physics, is the logistics staff who are distributing the journal today mistaken, how did they put the biomedical journal in their own office?
Zou Wentian is very careful in his work, and he is also very strict in the management of his subordinates and logistics personnel.
Because in scientific research, there is no sloppiness at all, one is one or two is two, and there is no word that may be about this.
Zou Wentian called the logistics to ask about the situation.
The other party replied: "Today's issue of Biological and Medical Technology was handed over to you by the Institute of Biology, and they said that this issue is a special issue, and the content of the paper may be helpful to physical research." ”
"So weird?" Zou Wentian hung up the phone and picked up the magazine.
Biology and Medicine is an emerging academic journal that has become one of the most important academic journals in Xia because it has published several sensational papers.
Zou Wentian was stunned as soon as he turned to the title of the paper.
Cultivation and Application of Ionizing Bacteria.
What the hell is this topic?
Ionized bacteria?
Ionization is a physical concept.
Bacteria are considered biological concepts, and culture?
What a mess!
Zou Wentian opened the paper and looked at it casually, the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, and the more he looked at it, the more unbelievable it became!
Source Code Group's life sciences and medical laboratories have developed bacteria capable of generating electricity.
Not to mention the development of this bacterium, the key is that this bacterium is also able to form a biological battery under laboratory conditions!
The energy density of this bio-battery is currently greater than that of the most advanced cobalt lithium battery on the market.
Moreover, the lithium cobalt battery also needs to be charged.
But this ionized bacterium actually relies on the decomposition of organic matter to produce electricity.
And the experimental data of the paper stunned Zou Wentian!
The size of the 10mm (outer diameter) l00mm (length) of the 70mm experimental reagent tube containing the bacterial solution is much higher than that of the same size lithium battery.
Zou Wentian was a little stunned.
He has a lot of research on new energy batteries, and never thought that new energy batteries would have anything to do with biology.
Zou Wentian is not a biology major, and there is something in this paper that he looks a little dizzy, so he immediately called Director Qin Zhao of the Institute of Biology.
Qin Zhao was also studying this paper at this time.
Qin Zhao said to Zou Wentian: "The laboratory of the Origin Group is really terrifying! This paper is a bit of a fantasy, but if this paper is true, our country's new energy industry will undergo major changes! The biggest hit is the lithium battery industry! ”
When Zou Wentian heard this, he was not calm, and said: "According to your understanding of the life science and medical laboratories of the origin group, how authentic is their paper?" ”
Qin Zhao immediately thought of Anne Mask, Silkworm Auridax and digestive bacteria, and he said: "The biological laboratory of the Origin Group should be the best biological laboratory in our country, and its technical and professional level is much higher than my laboratory. ”
After getting Qin Zhao's reply, Zou Wentian was in a complicated mood.
If the origin group makes a biological battery with more powerful performance than lithium-sulfur batteries, should it do this project in its own hands? Will there still be funding, and will there be an app market after the project is made?
Everything is unknown.
At this time, "The Cultivation and Application of Ionizing Bacteria" caused great repercussions in the academic circles of Xia Kingdom.
