Chapter [296] The success of bio-oil technology

Ross created a special environment for these bacteria. Under the action of light, temperature, radiation, and radiation, the genes of these bacteria are undergoing mutations. △↗

The smart chip can precisely control each step, the temperature accuracy reaches 0.01 degrees, and the ray radiation accuracy reaches the highest level of nuclear physics.

In a perfect environment, these bacterial mutations would be under Roth's control.

Three days later, the mutations of these bacteria had met Rose's requirements.

Ross started the cloning machine, and in various nutrient solutions, the bacteria were rapidly multiplying. The bacteria, which were originally only the size of a needle tip, reproduced at an geometrical rate after devouring a large amount of nutrients. In less than an hour, a bottle A whole kilogram of black bacteria was cloned.

Rose carefully took out a needle of bacteria with a syringe and put it in a huge glass cabinet.

The glass cabinet is filled with various green grasses and leaves, and Ross puts bacteria into it.

In an instant, Rose saw an astonishing scene. These bacteria were like hungry ghosts reincarnated, devouring those plants frantically. Leaf after leaf disappeared out of thin air, leaving only leaf stems and leaf roots.

After the various nutrients of the leaves enter the bacteria, they are absorbed by them, and the unnecessary nutrients are excreted by them.

Rose was very excited and waited patiently. Time passed bit by bit. Four hours later, those plants were completely decomposed, leaving only some black substances like turned into oil in the glass cabinet.

Ross instrumentally tested some of these oils, and the results were astounding. These substances are 98% similar to petroleum and have almost all the elements of petroleum.

There is no doubt that bio-oil technology has matured.

oil. It is the plants that have gone through the changes of the vicissitudes of life, buried deep in the ground, and under the action of bacteria, after millions of years of changes, the current crude oil is formed.

And using biological gene technology, use these mutated bacteria to divide plants. The secretions released, the time it takes for plants to turn into oil, ranges from millions to tens of millions of years. shortened to a day or a few days.

This kind of fermentation-like biotechnology is the 'photo-regeneration bio-hydrocarbon' technology, and the bio-oil produced has miraculous effects. And the cost is small. Only plants are needed. Adding this bacteria can make bio-oil.

Ordinary farmers only need to buy these bacteria and grow plants to produce bio-oil, which can be refined into endless oil.

But Ross still had to solve two problems before the technology could be rolled out.

These bacteria devour plants too quickly, and if used in destruction, the consequences are dire. They are a hundred times more powerful than locusts, if they are cast on the mountains. It will eat up all the plants in a mountain in an instant.

How to control this kind of bacteria and prevent them from causing ecological disaster is an important issue.

Ross decided to change the lifespan of these bacteria, destroying their gene chains, so that their survival time can only reach one day or a few days, making them afraid of high temperature and light, and they will die as long as they are exposed to the sun's rays.

In this way, this kind of bacteria cannot cause ecological disasters to the human environment, and can be applied to the energy field calmly.

Regarding the storage of bacteria, Ross intends to use freezing technology. When the temperature is below zero, the bacteria will be frozen and in a dormant state. It is not difficult to activate them, as long as the glass bottle containing the bacteria is put into hot water for a while, the bacteria can be thawed and activated.

Another problem has to be solved. The leaves that these bacteria devour are the leaves that have been sterilized, and they are harmless to devour.

As for the plants grown by farmers, it is impossible to have a troublesome disinfection process, which would be a waste of time and increase costs. Rose must make these bacteria resistant to strong, except for sunlight, all kinds of pesticides and chemical residues can't hurt them.

Once these microbes are perfected, biopetroleum technology can be considered a success.

In the future, Yuta Company only needs to clone a large number of these bacteria and sell them to farmers. Farmers can use these bacteria with a survival life of only a few hours or a day to produce bio-oil, and then they can produce crude oil. The crude oil produced can be refined into pure oil by Sinopec and PetroChina, which can be applied to the energy field.

Ross controlled his excitement and directed the biologists to clone these bacteria and genetically modify them so that their lifespan would be shortened after the cells divide to a certain extent.

Time passed day by day, and with the help of Ross, the bio-oil technology of Yuta Company was developing steadily.

These days, Ross has been staying in the laboratory. Tan Li entered the biology building a few times. After seeing Ross, she ran away with a cold face, and her ignorance made Ross very sad.

Rose could only sigh and put all his enthusiasm into his work.

Half a month later, the bacteria were transformed successfully.

Ross started experimenting again, and a ton of leaves was brought in from the biology building. These leaves have not been treated in any way. In addition to being stained with soil, they have also been sprayed with various chemical potions and pesticides. Whether this poisonous plant will completely kill those bacteria, Ross can only prove it through experiments.

Pour the leaves into a huge cement trough, and Ross put one or two bacterial stock solutions into the cement trough, and a large group of scientists gathered around the trough to watch. Tens of thousands of tiny cameras around are filming the actions of bacteria.

Under the computer-controlled high-resolution microscope, Ross saw that the bacteria were rapidly dividing, multiplying at an exponential rate, and devouring the plants.

Pieces of leaves are swallowed and decomposed, and oil-like substances are secreted by bacteria to be excreted.

Soon, the bacteria's reproduction limit is reached, their vitality becomes weak, and they can no longer reproduce. The leaves were devoured cleanly, and even the roots were decomposed, leaving only some residual silt.

These bacteria work very efficiently. The crude oil compound discharged from this ton of leaves is only 250 kilograms, but it is crazy enough.

Ross turned on the sun-like lamp, and as soon as the light shone, the bacteria began to die one by one under the killing effect of ultraviolet rays, and finally decomposed, turned into atoms, and disappeared into the air.

"Successful, these little guys are really good!"

"From now on, our country will no longer be short of energy."

"Our country no longer needs to import oil from any country, and our farmers can produce the oil the world needs."

The scientists burst into cheers. They worked hard for five months to study the bio-oil technology. With the help of Ross, it finally came to fruition.

Bio-petroleum technology has been successful, and Ross has the ability to master global energy. (To be continued.)
