Chapter 30 Metal Air Battery

Before he arrived, experts on battery technology were already in discussion.

"I still think that metal air battery is not feasible at this stage," an expert said. 

"In regards to discharge performance, energy efficiency, catalysis, and design, we still don't have any way to solve these problems.

"In the lab, we can make a simplified version of metal-air batteries, but it will take at least ten years for them to be fully utilized!"

"At this stage, it's still better to conquer all-solid-state battery technology first!"

Everyone was actually thinking the same thing. It wasn't that they were timid or incompetent, but they were pressed for time. No one could guarantee that they would be able to develop this technology in a short period of time.

If a department from the Sentry Tower could not move past the first step of research, wouldn't they become a joke?

Yu Xing thought for a while and said, "Comrade He Xingzhou said that we have the relevant information. If that's true, we still research and develop the metal air battery"

"That's hard to say!" Another expert said, "We're already the most advanced researchers in this field."

"So far, I haven't heard of any technological breakthroughs from my domestic and foreign counterparts. The top battery technology research in China is mostly done by people like us. How could there be any technological reserves?"

No one said anything. At this time, outside the conference room, He Xingzhou knocked on the door and walked in. He smiled and said, "Everyone's here pretty early. It's just in time. I've sorted out the information."

He was holding a document that had just been printed. The smell of ink was still on it.

"You already have the information?" Yu Xing asked in surprise. "Let me see!"

"Here's a copy for each of you!" He Xingzhou printed several copies, and everyone at the meeting took one copy to check.

"Design and production technology of Metal Air Batteries?" Yu Xing looked at it carefully. There were explanations in the first couple of pages which were related to magnesium air batteries, aluminum air batteries, zinc air batteries, and lithium air batteries.

Everyone here had some basic understanding about the principles of metal air batteries. What was on the report did not solve any of the problems that they had.

At first, Yu Xing and the others were still skeptical. The information in the front was all information they knew already. Could this report be on what they knew already?

However, as they continue to read the report, their thoughts immediately changed!

"A brand-new protective membrane has been designed to prevent the electrode liquid from permeating!"

"A new formula for organic electrolyte? The usable temperature has already surpassed that of traditional power batteries!"

"Catalyst Improvement; design of a recyclable hydrogen and oxygen metal compound..."

The more they looked at it, the more shocked they became. They could not help but cry out in excitement. In the report, the technical difficulties that restricted the development of metal air batteries had actually been written down and solved!

The experimental proof and effect analysis written made them have no choice but to believe that someone had really done the experiment and obtained a reliable conclusion and experimental product!

"Pa!" Yu Xing couldn't help but slap the table and shouted, "Which genius...? No, which team developed something like this?"

"Yeah, why didn't I know that metal air battery technology had made such great progress? Why didn't I hear anything about it before?" Other experts also shouted.

"A few of the most difficult issues in the development of metal air batteries have been solved. We don't even need to go through much trouble to follow the design and create usable, even commercial, metal air batteries!"

"This is a revolution in the battery industry! The battery technology hasn't had a big breakthrough for decades. I didn't expect to see the new technology with my own eyes today!"

As the leading researchers in the field, they naturally knew the importance of this information!

It could be said that the person who obtained this information could easily become one of the top ten tycoons in the world, an industry tycoon, and even a star in the technology industry!

He Xingzhou smiled and said, "Everyone, I can guarantee that the information on the paper is authentic and reliable. "However, the information on the paper is still far from being industrialized and manufactured. There will also be many difficult problems. These will need to be solved by you guys!"

Yu Xing immediately stood up and said emotionally, "Leader, you can rest assured and leave it to us! With such detailed information, if we still produce these batteries, I won't have the face to stay here anymore!"

The way he addressed He Xingzhou had changed from comrade to leader. It was enough to show the excitement in his heart!

"Yes, this is our specialty. Within a month, there will definitely be a product!" The experts stood up one after another and said.

"Okay!" He Xingzhou smiled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble everyone. These four types of metal-air batteries, OH, there are also nanocrystal solar cells. I hope that everyone can develop them as soon as possible. After comparing the pros and cons, we can put them to practical use as well."

"Among them, I need a lithium-air power battery as the energy storage device for my Maglev, and the nanocrystal solar panels as the power supply for the Tower's power station. Are these all okay?"

"No Problem!" Yu Xing guaranteed, "We'll definitely complete the task!"

"Okay, then you guys continue to study them first. I still have things to tell the other groups." He Xingzhou said.

At this time, the experts in the battery technology group couldn't wait any longer. They started to research and gather the experimental materials.

They had to verify the information in the paper themselves before they could confirm its accuracy. This was also necessary step in the scientific research process.

After He Xingzhou finished with the battery team, he went to the other groups to to check up as well. The other teams were all in the planning process.

"After solving the battery problem, the next step is the motor for the Maglev." He Xingzhou checked the technology tree. In order to unlock the magnetic levitation motor, he needed to unlock the basic technology of ordinary motors and magnetic levitation.

It was worth mentioning that if He Xingzhou directly obtained the relevant technical information, he would be able to unlock the corresponding technology without using energy.

These two basic technologies were already researched by China. He Xingzhou wanted to get the information and let the Quantum Processor read it, so he could directly unlock the two basic technologies.

"The magnetic levitation motor requires 100 units of energy to unlock, and it will take about four days," He Xingzhou thought. "In that case, I'll make a video first."

In an office, Ding Yue was holding a camera. In front of the camera was He Xingzhou, who was wearing casual clothes, and Xu Zhilan, who had a sexy figure and good looks.

Both of them were pulled aside by He Xingzhou as assistants in video production.

"Hello, everyone. I'm He Xingzhou. This is my assistant. You can call her Yao Yao."

Yao Yao was Xu Zhilan's stage name so that she didn't have to use her real name.

"Today, we are going to release a new video and teach everyone how to make a brand-new technological product!"

"We have already announced before that it is a product related to cars. I saw a message asking if it is a model car, something about a homemade train, or a three-wheeled vehicle."

"Everyone, please let your imaginations run a little wild. Please don't lower the standard this "Planet Builder"'s ability. "This time, the car that we are going to produce is one that you can often see in sci-fi movies. It can float in the air, be driverless, and exceed the speed of sound -- an electromagnetic levitation vehicle!"
