Check in to the Central Laboratory - New Skills Shine the Industry's New "Business Card"
2024-07-08
Currently, a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation is advancing rapidly, and laboratories are the source of cutting-edge scientific innovation from "0" to "1", as well as the incubator of modern industries. The reporter saw in multiple laboratories in Anhui, Hunan, Shanxi, Henan and other places that the new skills on the new track are shining new "business cards" of the industry. At the cross scientific research building on the "Science Island" in Hefei, Anhui, researcher Tian Mingliang is gathered with everyone in front of an electron microscope to have a lively discussion. On the computer screen, the new topological magnetic structure magnified by hundreds of thousands of times resembles neatly arranged honeycomb. "A high-performance supercomputer consumes an annual energy equivalent to 50000 tons of standard coal." Tian Mingliang said that the high energy consumption of electronic devices restricts the development of future information technology. Topology - this concept derived from geometry is gradually being applied in the exploration of new material structures. Tian Mingliang and others led the establishment of the Chinese Academy of Sciences low power quantum materials and devices institutionalization research team. Scientific researchers from different disciplines, such as materials, physics, chemistry, etc., gathered together to study quantum materials and devices with low power consumption structural characteristics by using large scientific devices with stable strong magnetic fields. Preliminary research has found that using a novel topological magnetic structure with nanoscale and stable "vortex" shape as a medium for information storage can reduce power consumption by several orders of magnitude compared to traditional magnetic storage devices, and is expected to achieve high-speed and low-power storage. With the assistance of the laboratory, a group of traditional manufacturing industries in the central region have been revitalized through upgrading and transformation. The height is equivalent to 8 floors, the volume is even larger than a basketball court, and the total weight is nearly 2000 tons... In any mining field in the world, this WK-75 mining excavator developed by Taiyuan Heavy Machinery Group can be called a "giant". More importantly, this excavator can achieve precise remote driving, allowing operators to bid farewell to the harsh working environment and wear white shirts to work. This cannot be achieved without the scientific research and development of researchers from the National Key Laboratory of Intelligent Mining Equipment Technology of Taichung Group. "We spent over two years overcoming each technical challenge to ensure that we achieved precise on-site operations." Yue Haifeng, the director of the Laboratory Intelligence Institute, said, "This automatic loading system can convert on-site operation information into digital language that machines can 'understand'. After precise and rapid analysis by artificial intelligence, it forms auxiliary decision-making. Combined with the dynamic model of work equipment, it assists in controlling equipment operations, making remote operators feel like they are operating on site." Currently, the order quantity of this independently developed remote control system for electric shovels has exceeded 20 sets. In the northern waters of Fujian, the world's first 16 megawatt offshore wind turbine rotates against the wind, continuously outputting electricity. One of the key core technologies supporting the deployment and wind capture of offshore wind turbines is the ultra large capacity and high-performance wind power energy conversion system, which was developed thousands of miles away in Changsha, Hunan. The National Key Laboratory of Offshore Wind Power Equipment and Efficient Utilization of Wind Energy is currently the only national key laboratory in the field of wind power in China, and the research team has a poetic name for it: "Wind Chaser". Since its approval for establishment in 2023, the laboratory has collaborated with multiple teams to focus on major scientific issues related to the collaborative mechanism of energy conversion throughout the entire process of offshore wind power in complex environments and the efficient utilization of wind energy. Key technologies such as the design and manufacturing of high-power wind power generation equipment and the efficient utilization of wind energy have been tackled. We are developing a '20 megawatt offshore new wind turbine'. If fully operational, it is expected that the annual power generation can meet the electricity demand of 44000 households Huang Shoudao, Director of the National Key Laboratory of Offshore Wind Power Generation Equipment and Efficient Utilization of Wind Energy and Professor at Hunan University, said that with the current trend of green and low-carbon transformation of energy raw material bases in the central region, there is great potential for wind power technology innovation to "chase the wind and pursue the green". In response to major strategic needs such as food security in our country, a batch of laboratory achievements are blooming and bearing fruit in the fields. In Neixiang County, Nanyang City, Henan Province, the factory of Henan Muyuan Anliang Synthetic Biotechnology Co., Ltd. has completed structural capping and is undergoing equipment bidding. It is expected to be officially put into operation by the end of this year, and can produce 30000 tons of synthetic biological products annually after full production. This is the first achievement transformation and transfer project of the Muyuan Laboratory in Henan. Aiming at the forefront of technological development in the field of synthetic biology, the laboratory focuses on reducing and replacing feed grains and soybean meal, and carries out research and development around industrial challenges such as biosynthesis of amino acids. The relevant person in charge of Muyuan Laboratory introduced that the laboratory has helped some breeding enterprises to replace soybean meal with a certain proportion of biosynthetic amino acids without reducing animal production performance, achieving low soybean meal feeding. New materials, new equipment, new agriculture... Guided by technological innovation, the central region is moving towards "new". (Lai Xin She)
