markets why not. find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike stronger for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to conjure reports on our. nine thirty pm in moscow here are two you have live dozens killed in syria's capital in the first suicide bombing since the uprising in the country started in march this is arab league observers get down to business in an effort to mediate a peace deal there. are tensions running high in iraq after more than seventy people were killed in a new bombing atrocity only days after u.s. troops pulled out of the country this against the backdrop of a political crisis with the government leaders putting the blame for the surge in violence on the opposition. privacy matters where every word and move could be

recorded possibly used against human rights activists in britain fight a rising number of surveillance cameras there now to be installed in every taxi at oxford authorities insist that the risk of intrusion is acceptable compared to the public safety benefits more news and half hour's time but first latest edition of technology update stay with us here on r.t. . hello and welcome to technology update as you can see from the decorations at this department store in central moscow it's that time of year again now this artificial tree there's hardly any resemblance to the aromatic conifers of my childhood new materials are replacing natural and traditional ones left and right and that's
12:32 pm
especially true with carbon fibers which are increasingly finding their way into our latest gadgets and playthings. from carbon fiber have actually been around for decades recreation. or everyday things like cell phones watches in cars carbon fiber products all around us. and here at a refurbished car plant. of the push to develop the latest generation of carbon fiber materials. a european aerospace delegation came to moscow to check out the opening of compazine new production complex the plant is expected to become the country's largest carbon fiber base. the overall global tendency and the forecasts by many are both indicative of the fact that is in the near future possibly in a matter of a few years the demand for these materials can skyrocket and this may bring about
12:33 pm
changes to the entire global economic system we are talking about millions of tons as soon as this breakthrough that is to say quantum leap occurs it will mean a revolution in technology a new world and russia must be prepared for it. we can get to the carbon in products a rather long process first we have to make poland which looks like honey or maple syrup. several ways to go but basically are mixed with the. chain. additionally.
12:34 pm
oxidation. two types of carbon. is produced with the help of. the taint through a process called. at this stage our threads are made. by oxygen molecules from the air. from here they're put through to furnace is where they lose most of their. depending on their intended
12:35 pm
use they're either carbonized or. slightly lower temperatures and as a result a lower carbon content. each fiber is now. percent carbon. there's a few more steps to go and that takes us back to the production facilities here at . the carbonized fibers to hold the new production line is outfitted with three. number one will be able to churn out six hundred kilograms of text. the second and third rooms will produce an additional one hundred thirty kilos a day by two thousand and fifteen this factory could produce two thousand. customers. these materials are
12:36 pm
designed to be used subject to extremely high loads they require very thorough testing. for example the world standard for materials is to sixty to seventy. sixty to seventy thousand various samples for different kinds of tests designed to check a full range of the materials properties. for those textiles can find their way to some of the latest technology. in the process the fabrics are turned into what are called which stands for impregnated material they're basically the last intermediate phase before they're ready to be used in a whole host of things in this so-called stage specialized equipment precisely introduces. after being properly positioned.
12:37 pm
to the right thing. for specific amount of time that. it's now ready to be shipped to. europe and china are no doubt attractive. pricing. to be able to produce a competitive product. and
12:38 pm
tell you. early.
12:39 pm
if you. had to come here. produced. to produce. the result. approximately six percent of the. the institute manufactures its own uranium targets. in the. reactor the facilities here and have been turning out over a quarter of a century supplying to just about all of the isotopes that the countries needed up
12:40 pm
until very recently the institute has produced ninety nine percent of them used in the russian market. given the fact that we're essentially dealing with highly enriched uranium there are extremely limited number of places can be produced. we started producing. after that. physics. production. as it reached the end of its service to. commercial producers the. current supply production is dominated by just
12:41 pm
a handful of reactors the two largest account for over sixty percent of global demand those two reactors are both over fifty years old and well beyond their intended service life when they're eventually decommissioned new suppliers will have to be found several alternatives are being explored including one in russia. especially for isotopes. takes us to where a new look production site has been set up late last year a company called isotopes began pumping out the radio at the research institute of atomic reactors not yet up to full capacity is already started deliveries to clients like one of the world's leading isotope provide. ensuring reliable deliveries of molybdenum is so important because it accounts for over eighty percent of all nuclear medicine operations worldwide and here in the meter of grad such a vital issue required a new solution. this technology has not only been reworked in the chemical sense
12:42 pm
but also in terms of the equipment and in this regard it's a new technology not available anywhere else as far as i'm aware and at the moment we are currently at the production. after the targets are cooled they are transported to hot cells for processing that involves dissolving the whole target in a chemical solution solid residues are filtered out and is extracted using sailing or ammonium hydroxide here new technology saves time which is important because every hour after about one percent of the isotope is lost to radioactive decay. our production target is eight hundred units today we produced one hundred sixty there was a shipment yesterday that's the first phase of our production at the same time we continue working on the second stage and expected to reach its design capacity in two thousand and twelve. the output target here is very high about two thousand
12:43 pm
four hundred juries per week. overall demand is estimated at one hundred. so once production ramps up doctors should have the topes they need to perform lifesaving diagnostics. conditions the radiation by these isotopes can be harnessed to. functioning. by choosing the appropriate isotope radiation. or tissue. can be taken. with christmas presents and with presents
12:44 pm
trash in many countries much of it just. fills the rubbish piles up people are increasingly looking for alternatives. to dispose of trash. every year. and. produce. something we. as of today.
12:45 pm
having reached there. has been an alternative. but they also haven't been without their problems.
12:46 pm
it produces much more energy. eight hundred fifty. between.
12:47 pm
required for. needed to be material. such material. we developed. before. but after searching. pretty quickly.
12:48 pm
from the control.
12:49 pm
that's going to help us. with electricity. consumption rates. because. the first.
12:50 pm
time. in the past twelve months what we hope to accomplish in the next. like those that recently took part in the fourth. the most important part of the. eight hundred. thirty.
12:51 pm
first project which is. the right. typically. given the potential to damage these important parts. and try to strike the right balance between removing. as you can see here the previously. physical impact. all these methods have several major downsides.
12:52 pm
production costs and difficulties. we have managed to develop solutions for all of the. development. which can be easily produced in any of. traditional. at the very beginning this is to take advantage of something called the. twenty eight. easily when they come into contact with an active liquid. compressed air is used to accelerate the mixture to the speed of sound. is completely. to get rid of the unique here. pores of the.
12:53 pm
structure of the target. potentially harmful effect. on the. production units through the complete. to the product we started with design. then produced prototypes through the process then we produced a pilot batch of three units we made the manually. by the time we go to. commercial production. has an innovative product. and there's apparently no shortage of interested customers especially in the energy sector. like these serious build ups on important parts can eat into the energy efficiency and profits as well as increase the chance of an accident but moving from cleaning power plants to what we do with electricity is the topic of alexander's most recent creation.
12:54 pm
for any portable device such as. tablets laptops it can be used on travel on trains planes. restaurants and users will no longer have to depend on having an electric around remembering to take the relevant cord with them it will be in the past i think a major potential. trees. possibly. because switching to producing. is a big competitive advantage on the market. and that's not something that's been lost on many of the world's top makers a good number of them. there are already a decent number of so-called wireless charges on the market however at present all of them still require you to place your device on the charging pad and with
12:55 pm
a separate charger for each device they give you a bit more freedom but are still tied directly to some kind of plugged in charger. there is a number of issues around this solution among them the impact on human health. devices in the vicinity the most important thing here is that we've succeeded. bringing these devices efficiency up to a very high level about eighty five percent and that's not the only thing alexander thinks his wire a charger offers over the competition it can theoretically work with any mobile device but most importantly this russian prototype can top up your battery anywhere around the charger not just on a pad unlike with the others why roll works effectively up to thirty centimeters away from the base of this device uses the principle of the tesla coil. the energy produced in coral installed inside the mobile device. is equipped with a receiver designed as a stick. we have developed
12:56 pm
a special feed circuits for the coil which use a very high efficiency facts about eighty five percent of this is achieved through the use of a switch mode power supply unit or the coil in other words while any inductive system goes through the oscillation build up phase in order to build up the energy production in our device but there is no buildup as such we sense of the process just once and it exonerates through induction we have only given hansing impulses once in a while. and your device is still in the project stage what more do you need to do to bring it to the market. to start commercial production of this device we need to meet three requirements first we need to complete the prototype and run it through all the necessary tests then make all necessary improvements and changes and produce a pilot batch. second we need to have all the patients registered and
12:57 pm
we need to set up a technology company in accordance with international standards. within that wireless charger could hit the market sometime soon and we hope that it and the other developments we've showed you today make the future seem well just a little brighter so we'll see you next time and until then enjoy the ride. question is that so much given to each musician i can find on the market with the american occupation of iraq officially coming to a close this week it's time to take stock was the war in occupation worth it.
