six thirty pm in moscow these are your r g headlines thousands turn out to rally in the russian capital in a second mass protest against the parliamentary poll result the opposition claimed the vote was rigged and they want a rerun while the government has promised political reform. in syria all people want for christmas is peace but there is no festive mood in the air as the latest round of violence the dozens dead and maybe escalation the arab league deploys and servers to try and mediate a peace deal. fueled by apparent success in libya david cameron reveals plans for potential intervention in somalia next year your oil rich african countries been described as a threat to british security and its fate will be decided at high level talks in

london in february. and coming up a special year end edition of technology update stay with us. 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. of my childhood 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.

in cars. and here at a refurbished car plant. came to moscow to check out the opening of. the plant is expected to become the country's largest. overall global tendency by many 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 tons a 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. get to the carbon.

there's a few more steps to go and that takes us back to the production facilities here at . the carbon fibers to hold the new production. will be able to churn out six hundred kilograms of text. will produce an additional one hundred thirty kilos a day by two thousand and fifteen this factory could produce two thousand. subject. very thorough testing. the world standard for materials is to sixty to seventy.
9:36 am
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. technology. in 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 introduced. properly positioned. to the right. time.

if you. had to come here. to produce. the institute manufactures its own uranium targets and. the facilities here have been turning out over a quarter of a century supplying to just about all of the isotopes that the countries 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 there are extremely limited number of places can be produced.
9:40 am
we started producing. production. as it reached the end of its service to. 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 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 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 isotopes. 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 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're currently at the production stage. after the targets are cooled they're transported to hot cells for processing that involves dissolving the whole target
9:42 am
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 four hundred juries per week. overall demand is estimated at one hundred.

to the project we started with design then produced prototypes through the painting . then we produced a pilot batch of three units we made them manually. by the time we go to. commercial production. as an innovative product. and there's apparently no shortage of interested customers especially in the energy sector. these serious build up 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. 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 surround or 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 have teamed up to. 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 some you need 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 the. the impact on human health or performance impacts on other electronic devices in the vicinity the most important
9:55 am
thing here is that we've succeeded in 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 as the energy producing call installed inside the mobile device. is equipped with a receiver designed as a stick. we have developed 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. as such we sense of the process just once and it exonerates through induction we've 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 these developments 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 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
