thank you for being with us five thirty here in moscow here's a quick look at your headlines dozens are killed in damascus end of the personal side bombing since the syrian uprising began in march authorities are laying the blame on al qaida the attacks come as arab league observers arrive in the country and the effort to work out a peaceful solution to the conflict. just days after the pullout of u.s. troops the iraqi government plunges deeper into political crisis following a bombing wave that claimed more than seventy lives prime minister nouri al maliki

a shiite has called for his sunni deputies on their block to be sacked the u.s. administration insists it left behind a stable country nine years after launching the invasion. and big brother is coming and he could be in your british taxi human rights activists fight a surge in surveillance cameras which are now to be installed in every taxi in the city of oxford recording not just video but all of you as well authorities insist that the risk of personal intrusion is acceptable compared to the public safety benefits. those are your headlines coming up next a special new year's edition of technology update don't go away. hello and welcome to technology update as you can see from the decorations at the

department store. it's that time of year again now this artificial tree. new materials are replacing natural and traditional ones left and right and that's especially true with carbon fibers which are increasingly finding their way into gadgets and playthings. actually been around for decades. and here are a refurbished car plant. to check out the opening of. the plant is expected to become the country's.
8:33 pm
tendency. or both indicative of the fact there is in the near future possibly in a matter of a few years the demand for these materials. and this may bring about changes to the entire global economic system we are talking about millions of. soon as this breakthrough that is to say quantum leap occurs it will mean a revolution in technology a new world and. get to the carbon. first we have to make. which looks like. there are several ways to go basically are mixed with a. strength
8:35 pm
oxygen molecules from the air. from here they're put through to furnace is where they lose most of their. depending on their intended use they're either carbonized or. carbon content. each fiber is. percent carbon. there's a few more steps to go and that takes us back to the production facilities here at each. plant the carbonized fibers to hold the new production line outfitted with three. we'll be able to churn out six hundred kilograms of. rooms will produce an additional one hundred thirty kilos
8:36 pm
a day by two thousand and fifteen this factory could produce two thousand. customers. these materials are designed to be subject to. very thorough testing. the world standard for materials is to cost sixty to seventy. sixty to seventy thousand various samples for different kinds of design to check a full range of the materials properties. for those textiles can find their way. in the process the fabrics are turned into. impregnated material they're basically intermediate before they're ready to be used in a whole host of things in this so-called stage specialized equipment precisely
8:37 pm
introduced. to the right thing. to be shipped to. china are no doubt attractive markets but nonetheless we mainly focus on russia we monitor external markets for benchmarking purposes such as to work out the pricing or to compare technologies in order to be able to produce a competitive product. tell
8:40 pm
the facilities here and have been turning out over a quarter of a century supplying to just about all of the isotopes that the country's needed up 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 extremely limited number of places can be produced. we started producing. after that. production. as it reached the end of its service to.
8:41 pm
producers the. current supply production is dominated by just 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 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 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 isotopes. ensuring reliable deliveries of
8:42 pm
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 been reworked in the chemical sense but 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're currently at the production. after the targets are cooled there 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
8:43 pm
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 four hundred juries per week. overall demand is estimated at one hundred. production ramps up doctors should have the topes they need to perform lifesaving diagnostics. conditions the radiation by these isotopes can be harnessed to. function. by choosing the appropriate isotope radiation.

physical impact. all these methods have several major downsides. production costs and difficulties. we have managed to develop solutions for all of these. developments. which can be easily produced in any of. traditional. at the very beginning this is to take. twenty eight. easily when they come into contact with an active liquid. compressed air is used to accelerate the mixture to the speed of.
8:53 pm
the buildup we want to get rid of. completely. to get rid of the. pores of the. structure of the target. on the under. production units through the complete. to the project we started with design. then produced prototypes we went through the process then we produced three units we made the manually. by the time we go to. commercial production. kind of innovative product. and there's apparently no shortage of interested customers especially in the energy sector. power plants like these serious build up on
8:54 pm
important parts can eat into the energy efficiency and profit 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. for any portable devices such as mobile phones tablets laptops is going to be used on travel on trains planes. 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. manufacturer is. 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
8:55 pm
a good number of them have teamed up to. there are already a decent number of so-called wireless charges on the market over at present all of them still require you to place your device on a charging pad and with a separate charger for each device they give you a bit more freedom but our phones 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
8:56 pm
away from the base of this device uses the principle of the tesla coil as the energy producing call installed inside the mobile device. is equipped with a receiver designed as a stick stick we have developed a special feed circuits for the coil which use a very high efficiency facts about eighty five percent and 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 start of the process just once and it exonerates through induction we 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
8:57 pm
all the necessary tests then make all necessary improvements in changes and produce a pilot batch. second we need to have all the patients registered and 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.
