Chapter 286 (1/2)
Old Zhang was surprised to see ye Xuan's figure. It was clear that he was still in the magic capital when talking just now, but he had come to the laboratory for a while. It was only a few minutes before and after. How did the other party do it.
Was it not in the magic capital before, but had almost arrived here.
Although this reason is very far fetched, only such an explanation can make sense. I can't believe it anyway. Ye Xuan only spent a few minutes and walked hundreds of kilometers.
Such a speed, even if the whole world can't do it.
Ye Xuan naturally saw Zhang's doubts, but did not explain it. He took the lead in saying, ”now that the nuclear fusion experiment has been successful, can it be applied to life and build a power plant?”
Mr. Zhang thought for a while and finally said, ”it's feasible in theory, but we haven't practiced it yet, so we don't dare to guarantee the final result.”
Ye Xuan nodded and knew that science is a very rigorous knowledge. Although he has mastered the technology of controllable nuclear fusion, it needs to be further determined if he wants to make commercial application.
However, since we have the technology, we will not use it anymore. We said, ”first find a place nearby and build it first, so as to provide power for our group in the future.”
”No problem!” for this request, old Zhang still had full confidence and immediately answered.
Ye Xuan asked again, ”how much raw materials will be consumed each month if the electricity required in the future is met?”
After all, the main hydrogen element required for nuclear fusion, which belongs to the national strategic resources, is very difficult to obtain. Although some were obtained from Japan last time, the experiment should be very sufficient, but now it is directly used commercially, so there are some deficiencies.
Therefore, we need to have a bottom in our heart and exchange some interests with the country at that time.
”This...” old Zhang pondered and finally said, ”in fact, the demand is very small. A few kilograms of raw materials are enough for the power consumption of the whole Lu'an City in a day. If it is only self-sufficient, 100 kilograms a month is enough.”
Ye Xuan was surprised and said, ”so little?”
Although we know that the energy generated by controlled nuclear fusion is very large, we didn't expect that a Lu'an City only needs a few kilograms a day.
Even if Lu'an is a third or fourth tier city, its population is nearly two million. So many people need this. A few kilograms, converted into Chinese coins, that is, thousands of Chinese coins, less than 10000.
Such a low price, coupled with very environmental protection, may replace all thermal power once launched.
After all, China is a big energy consumer. Although it now has a lot of hydropower and even nuclear power generation, there are still a lot of thermal power generation, which plays a very negative role in resource consumption and air pollution.
If this clean energy is replaced, it will not only reduce the consumption of resources, but also clean the environment.
Hearing Ye Xuan's surprised words, old Zhang said with a smile: ”the energy produced by controllable nuclear fusion is 100 times that of nuclear fission. In addition, the conversion rate we are now studying has been as high as 70%, which has greatly reduced the raw materials.”
Speaking of this, Zhang Lao showed an expression of desire to speak and stop. In short, he was very tangled.
Ye Xuan looked in his eyes and then asked, ”old Zhang, what do you want to say?”
