Sensitive people have already heard that this is a set of major achievements, not just one.
There is a huge difference between one item and a set.
Of course, more participants are filled with endless doubts and questions at this moment.
Seawater desalination is costly and expensive. The cost of one cubic meter of water is about ten yuan, which is much more expensive than the average cost of two or three yuan per cubic meter of water transferred by the South-to-North Water Diversion Project.
Since there is the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, even though the inland areas are currently facing the problem of gradual depletion of fresh water resources, it can still be maintained. With ready-made fresh water resources, desalinating seawater and then diverting it northwards, isn't this just adding unnecessary costs?
Deep mining of resources. There are only a few minerals in the country, and everyone here has a detailed understanding of domestic resources.
The total amount of mineral resources is still abundant and the varieties are complete, but the per capita possession is lower than the world average. The quality of mineral resources is poor, the geographical distribution is uneven, there are few large and super-large mines and open-pit mining, the development and utilization rate is insufficient, and the mineral processing and smelting technology is backward.
There is a shortage of or insufficient proven reserves of important domestic minerals such as iron ore, manganese ore, chromite, copper ore, and bauxite, and most important minerals rely on foreign imports.
How else can we dig? Most domestic minerals are found at depth, and deep mining increases the risk and costs significantly, creating a vicious cycle of exhausting resources.
This was the first thought that flashed through the minds of all participants when they saw the title.
The title of today's meeting was even more confusing. If the elders hadn't been sitting right next to him, Chu Hengyuan would have been attacked and scolded by the angry bosses!
"I know that when everyone sees this title, their first reaction is to think that I'm crazy!" Chu Hengyuan laughed at himself first. He could predict what everyone was thinking without having to guess.
Then, with a solemn expression and a firm tone, he said, "I can confidently tell you all that I am very clear-headed and fully aware of what I am doing. I also want to tell you that with the advancement of science and technology, we are about to usher in a new era of resources!"
He immediately clicked on the next page, "Because we have super directional decomposition materials and ultrafiltration water purification membranes, as well as oxygen reduction extraction and metal extraction and separation technology!"
"The super-directional decomposition material, referred to by its developers as N18, possesses exceptional decomposition capabilities. It can decompose organic matter found in nature, even plastics and chemical fibers... Through special processing methods, it can directionally decompose methane, butane, and other alkane gases, converting them into liquefied natural gas for daily use!"
In other words, all types of garbage that currently cause us trouble and are difficult to handle can be centrally processed and turned into treasure. According to experimental verification, 100 tons of kitchen waste can be converted into two to three tons of gas, 100 tons of dead leaves or excrement can be converted into about 10 tons of gas, and 100 tons of plastic and paper products can be converted into 30-60 tons of gas.
Statistics show that Chinese residents generate millions of tons of garbage daily, and livestock excrement reaches nearly 3 billion tons annually. Successful conversion of this single element could yield hundreds of millions of tons of natural gas annually, meaning that mastering this scientific research would provide us with a continuous source of organic minerals.
China's annual natural gas consumption is 140 billion cubic meters, equivalent to 100 million tons of liquefied natural gas and manufactured coal gas. This means that if we utilize it effectively, we can fill the gap in domestic gas demand, significantly reduce our dependence on imported natural gas, and no longer be constrained by international regulations.
"At the same time, these waste products, after desalination, will become natural organic fertilizers, which will be of great help to domestic agriculture and provide great support for my country's vigorous development of agriculture."
"Secondly, ultrafiltration water purification membranes are combined with reduction extraction technology to achieve deep resource recovery and reuse. With the increasingly serious pollution, the ultra-green water purification membrane can filter all types of polluted water, with the wastewater ratio being only one thousandth. The wastewater pollution source can be directed reduced into different pure metal powders through a matching reduction extraction process. The more serious the water pollution, the higher the extraction ratio.
At the same time, desalination and resource extraction can be achieved, with the average conversion cost being less than one yuan per ton. If we start from China's westernmost coastal cities, we will significantly reduce the difficulty of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project. With the technical support of converting seawater into freshwater resources, we will also have a steady supply of freshwater resources, which can significantly supplement the arid northwestern regions. This is a strategic transformation to save the country!"
"I think everyone understands the resources contained in seawater better than I do. Furthermore, this technology can also make in-depth and detailed use of low-grade minerals. With this technology, my country's mineral demand will be significantly met, and it will also alleviate our current dependence on imports of various mineral resources!"
Chu Hengyuan spoke at a moderate pace, flipping through the slides as he explained, highlighting key points. The details he revealed, the data he presented, each item, made the attendees' eyes widen. They stared in astonishment, glued to the screen. The shock lingered in their hearts. When had their country developed such incredible, almost alien technology?
Which research team made such a significant breakthrough? Who's researching this section? Professor Han, Professor Yang? Probably none of them. They're not even in the research community. How could they have heard about progress in this area? So how could such a groundbreaking achievement suddenly appear?
Yes, except for Elder Cheng, the elders and Chu Hengyuan who were in the know, everyone else had the same speculation. They never thought that this would be the result of one person. However, this series of supporting facilities and their combination made everyone present certain that this was the work of one team, not the combined product of multiple teams.
"Are these really real? Not just speculative concepts?" Are they sure these aren't fake data fabricated to siphon funding, but are they actually developed and ready for immediate use? Are they sure they can actually achieve this incredible, long-awaited, and highly anticipated effect?
At the front of the conference table, the head of the resources department was not quite convinced and muttered in astonishment.
If this were the case, their Ministry of Resources would absolutely approve. Finally, they wouldn't have to worry about how to allocate limited resources. The nation's resource reserves would be greatly increased, and there would no longer be the agonizing worry of various resources. They, more than anyone else, hoped that this technology would be real!
"Yes, definitely. Some of these technologies have already been thoroughly and repeatedly tested by a secret experimental team. Every achievement has met expectations. They've actually produced actual products, not ones that need further research and development!
The ultra-green water purification membrane and reduction extraction technology, along with detailed parameter data and repeated experimental data, have also been sent to the research department. This is real progress!
