i've. lived lived. lives . hello and welcome to technology or bates on today's show we learn how to cook the

sollie brown i'd like hot my food water. design classic still has room for improvements. on how to recycle tires and improve roads in one fell swoop. but first we're all familiar with the lengthy security procedures to airports where we recently found out that the technology that keeps us all safe can also be used to put a smile on a girl's face. and check diamonds a price the pulled over for their astounding physical properties and things that takes there also it kills best friend also the song goes no months away you're the queen of england with her crown jewels or you prefer something more subtle one thing is true the larger the diamond the rarer it is and the more it's worth thus why bush and diamond producer struck up an online partnership with a complete specializing in explosive detectives neutron technologies is located a two hour drive and allegedly fight right outside of moscow in the trunk full town of not the town doesn't look much like

a scientific poll but appearances can be deceiving we've come to the joint institute for nuclear research institute currently unites eighteen countries and seven labs carrying out pioneering research in particle physics. and this is where the much of coppens hidden away behind these radiation proof doors lies a hive of innovation and the home of neutron technologies which was founded in part by the nuclear research institute the explosive and narcotics detectives produced here by using airports train stations as well as by the russian security services one of the latest developments is this mo body text for use in the field the device can identify the chemical. makeup of any objects located in anything from a cardboard box hill to thirty centimeters of solid concrete all of which is thanks to the compact neutral emitted inside. this is the heart of our unit the neutron accelerator was it's only thirty centimeters tall and weighs only eight kilograms which is a dramatic reduction compared to last centuries accelerators which were six stories

tall yet it generates the same number of neutrons fifty million a second and on top of that it has a built in alpha detector. which allows us to track the tags being served to see how much progress has been made thanks to the research and development of the past fifty years before the new but not. the main components of the device for the neutron generator alpha detector tritium targets and gamma detector the device works by emitting to try and particles when the future one hits the tritium could be misplaced into alpha neutron particles the neutrons penetrate the objects in question while the alpha detector is responsible for determining the location of any dangerous substances the neutrons excited nuclei of the atoms they hit causing them to give off gamma rays which are then picked up by the detectives the energy of the cameras his unique elements which allows the substance to be determined based on its elemental composition this method off as many advantages over x.

rays which can misidentify system and gets to texas which don't receive objects the laser grid on the phone to detect it corresponds with a neutron themes allowing you to target the object computer ten process is the information received by the detector and identifies any potentially hazardous materials and their location. in addition to the mobile detector the company has designed a device for inspecting vehicles another for shipping containers and an underwater device for examining unexploded torpedoes and mines all of the detectors can identifiable to thirty types of explosives and be operated at a safe distance while a computer program takes care of the number can. to get to the bottom of the matter that's way over two hundred thousand dollars the devices don't come cheap so he better to foot the bill the russian diamond joint grocer which is having problems of its own them but this unit has been set up to see whether we can detect a large valuable diamond within a lump of kimberlite without having to crush off if there was

a large diameter of the or was ground down first the way it usually is the shattered diamond loses a lot of its value so if we were able to detect a large valuable diamonds in the or it would offer a really good return on investment since such large diamonds are quite rare very lucrative. following the request of the scientists at a base reef to see if their technology could be applied to the diamond industry then sent fifty kilograms of kimberlite rock samples which is the best source of crimea timings for the company to try out its detection system after hours of testing neutron technologies finally struck gold story diamond the next step is for the detect to be upscaled so it can pick up the rocks containing large diamonds on the conveyor before the destroyed. if. we did indeed find diamonds inside the door and we're planning to continue testing this method next year and

then to make improvements to the detecting device in cooperation with neutron technologies when you are planning to use this method for the detection of large diamonds in the kimberlite extracted from the mirror and international new mines. will be focusing on the largest size segment five carrots and above it would have to wish. now the theory of using this technology has been proven. says the practical side of implementing it on an industrial scale if neutron technologist can reduce the time it takes to detect diamonds i'm sure the companies will have a bright future together. sony will it lead to increased profits and open up a whole new market for neutron technologies but also puts a smile in the face of many this is a place of wonder and beauty rolling hills and lush forests and as you just seen there are many treasures hidden out of reach but you don't always need explosives to get them. brains over brawn. the liquid gold that makes the world go round

with altitudes we're going to slow and pain fortunately oil supplies are on depleted quite yet but the bad news is that easily extractable sources all running out so we demand for oil higher than ever engineers have been forced to look for new ways to get to the black store and keep the world spinning on its axis oil and gas deposits can be located on to anything from lays of something clay to solid rock slide granite them so all companies need a drill that can make short work of anything that gets in its way there are currently three main types of drill bits the tri control which is made up of three spikes role is the fixed cutter which often has diamond edges and works by scraping away at the right below and the turbo job which spins much faster than the other and requires less downward force unfortunately diamonds on forever and all the drill bits and have to be replaced which can be both costly and time consuming this combined with the increasingly complex nature of drilling means that traditional

methods are being pushed to the limits. the institute of high technology physics in thomas has a laboratory that specializes in through solid rock with high powered electrical sparks the first experiments were conducted way back in the sixty's when the theory of using electrical pulses to drill through books was tested results were impressive but the technology the time did not allow for the idea to take in perth now the university has a prototype device to off as many advantages over traditional drilling methods. and with the advantage of the high voltage electrical impulse method. we used made of ordinary steel. well and yet the model we don't use any alloy great or diamonds or wood at getting our spark a discharge method makes these very expensive materials redundant. and this is how it works a generator produces electricity which is then stored in the passages and that's the drill the drill bit itself has one electrode in the sense that surrounded by in

a rate above the electrodes when they come into contact with the ball the potential difference between them it's a powerful spot which troubles through the rock like a micro explosion causing bits to break away the dead piece then carried back to the surface with a liquid form the size of the points can be controlled by adjusting the fist it's between the electrodes the drills ability to make short work of solid blocks even short attention from the super bowl. a few of them with the. norwegian companies like oil the total construction firm. you know a drill from the university of trondheim have supported our work in developing this new technology akin to what we would have supplied them with a submersible high voltage impulse generator with which to drill an experimental well in granite rock so that we can investigate the potential of this technology in the field in the world i think you know devices of great interest to total

engineers and of course great interest to oil companies whose possible would be the potential of mechanical drilling methods if we do either with diamond heads or with load of bits has been almost fully exhausted wizzard fuel for morton and this is why every company is now looking for a new method. new technology to ensure a fast boring speed especially through hard rocks like it. determined by the size of the. bigger the better. the system removing them from the hole by controlling the energy produced by the generator the distance between the electrodes and frequency pulses the ultimate speed can be achieved so who knows. the benefits of this technology the bright

get journalling junkies looking to get their fix although i would describe myself as a fan of extreme sports i have always wanted to try parachuting was having witnessed this unlucky part she's take a hard landing i started to have second thoughts so it looks like it's back to the drawing board for the partial of the scientific research institute of design competition in moscow founded in one thousand nine hundred eighty six the institute is part of aviation written holding which is the main development for to ship partially to russia it is one of only a few companies in the world that carries out the full range of parts you development. institutes conduct research development and production as well as ground and flight sets of all these partially systems the base era job. we were lucky enough to touch with one of the research institute partially testers. of course here on the field we have all the right conditions surface and things like that in reality those soldiers have to land on various different terrain here but

the and they'll have to have time to maneuver so that they can lead safely. billeted to maneuver around the horizontal speed of a parachute the paramount importance for the sand and of course the. specially for landing using your sibling because in the top condition is a partially tough to jump in not to mention all the equipment they carry minutes a special approach has to be taken when designing parachutes for use by the military today the design institute was testing one of its latest developments the deep twelve beastie the twelve is the latest hardship produced by the russian airborne troops the lease to still be subject to rigorous testing but is expected to enter into service by the end of the year it's capable of carrying up to one hundred sixty kilograms at a speed of four point five new to the second the spare parts should be stored in the body leaving room for detachable a big container of the front which helped take some of the weight off when one day we went back to moscow to learn about the evolution and benefits of this harsh.

gives you an idea on the evolution of the parachute design over the decades they have been used in the army. here's the six model developed in the soviet union in the mid seventy's. basically featured a circular canopy with steering belts and a top ventimiglia apex. because the shape of a hemisphere in profile thanks to the course. with the new developments in the aviation industry and the increased need for massive air drops we had to invent a new design and we could deal with midair collisions better between parachutes and that's how the detainee shoot. one of the industry continue to push for even heavier capacity better maneuverability and improved safety when landing in very strong winds i believe. the only requirement was to keep the same size and weight to shoot.

the d twelve has proven to be the perfect solution thanks to its unique design and canopy shape. and the fact that it's this angle that pushes the chute forward in the. war with a lot of this would be if the tests prove to be successful this new model will replace the previous generation of parachute the fewer of them you know with. the institute uses the latest in computer design and modeling technologies in addition to the least the institute has made over five thousand different partially types one thousand of which are ventured into mass production they range from anti spinning cargo chutes to low altitude invest you power shoots some of them have an area of up to three hundred seventy five meters squared and can carry up to twenty tons. i am doubt the computer design is then sent to this factory to be turned into

reality. in addition to this production facility the institute also has researched engineering and technology schools over generations the institute has accumulated a wealth of knowledge and expertise which allows it to create such a diverse range of parachutes advances in materials mean how ships can be more compact enjoyable than ever in addition we use new materials in parachute construction but i suppose but in the past it's parachutes were made for nylon fabric no we use more modern materials so all this has enabled us to reach our goals solely. with this knowledge we return to the airfield in moscow. jumps up to twenty times a week and his goal of tracking down to a t. he can do it in around ten minutes when he's not being distracted by technology all day present my experience of the parts you constituents and there are practical i'm not i've restored my faith in the safety of the sport and who knows maybe next time i'll be joining these guys in the not too distant future. of four million cars in

moscow alone which not only has a negative impact on the capsule's roads but also produces huge amounts of waste tires every year but luckily one russian company has a knack for killing two birds with one stone. on something a lot. bush's scorching summers and bitterly cold winters take a heavy toll on the country's broke this along with the millions of cars and each t.v.'s that pound the surface every day i mean the road repairs and replacements are a constant struggle not only to potholes and trucks represent a hazard to drivers but they're also a burden on the government's budget so the need to find a type of road service full of better withstanding the daily because of moscow's traffic and weather is pretty clear that's why scientists have been experimenting with different ways of modifying both services and testing them with this mobile lab one of the most promising technologies involves mixing old tires into the else fold mixture. the practice of using rubberized asphalt was pioneered in arizona in the mid one nine hundred sixty s. with limited success while the rubberized road service offered a number of advantages over previous technologies the relatively large chunks of

rubber and gravel used were prone to coming loose and damaging cars so the project was abundant in one nine hundred eighty nine. it all started with old non-recyclable car tires go by leaving them all around the place people do harm to the environment the problem is you can't burn these ties put them in landfill sites traditionally this kind of waste has been used in construction or road building so me would you. be recycling technology mean that there are more and more large scale uses for all tires this type of processing putting check of is responsible for recycling some of the estimated one hundred twenty five thousand tons of worn out tires discarded by the capitol every year old size of fish shredded and then the fiber and steel components are separated and sent for further processing the remaining wilbur is think ground down to produce tire chrome which can then be used to produce even more ties create safe playground services as well as

a whole range of other applications one of the biggest consumers of tycoon however is unicom which specializes in producing a super fine but how to use an ro construction uni combi sponsored nano technology company boss not no. is where you can carry so much peace road surface research here the stuff child various combinations and ratios of materials to try and attain the ideal road surface in general roads are made up of gravel and sun. and has been successfully used in boats for almost two centuries there is still room for improvement and this is where unicom stands out from the rest. unicom which transfer universal compazine materials produces a fine powder the beats anything else in the markets hands down. some would say you can take any rubber powder. but that's not true so what you need to make it work is a physical and chemical reaction between the bitumen and whatever powder you have.

the extent to which the powder reacts is determined by the area of the powder in contact with the bitumen you were poor she would. be the one despite being very fine the more tired from lax the surface area completely with the pitchmen always still improves the road surface the full potential the robot has not been a lot the cauliflower like surface of the nano part of produced by means that just one gram of it has a surface area of up to five thousand sets me to square. however none of this would be possible were it not for the work of the team nikolski at the same institute of chemical physics in moscow the team discovered even to his own surprise it is certain temperatures proper and plastics substances can be ground down to a very fine powder which led to the development of this machine with the only ones in the world to use the dry method. we take the mix for

making mixed asphalt concrete with and put the required amount of tire powder in it you. this method saved. amounts of time. before the invention of the share in juice grinding machine builders had to use the so-called wet method of adding the robot to the pitchman this involved heating the mixture for a day which is what is required excessive amounts of energy and time to cause the bitch many cells to deteriorate it's no wonder then that other countries are trying to follow suit which with around fifty eight and somebody machine it might take them a while. known forty despite our best efforts machine parts so it can but into the studio show you exactly how it works. and here it is. now the only main difference to an industrial version the prototype is the size the principle is exactly the same two finals at either end and archimedes screen compression zone

and cooling section the old should it's high as a fed into this funnel the screw then pushes them towards the stopper as more and more bits of tire build up the pressure increases the friction creates a cause attempted to rise to about one hundred seventy five degrees c. at which point the tie begins to disintegrate and see through the tiny gap between the two sections the fine tire part is think cooled and comes out the front of the end and bob's your uncle that size ready to hit the roads the institute in moscow was originally created for studying the processes that the nuclear weapons but in one nine hundred fifty eight the specialist working there turned their attention to chemical reactions in creating new synthetic materials but team studied the prophecies of these materials and developed instruments for examining the structure the prototype for producing the nano powder was created in one thousand nine hundred eighty one and laid the foundation for today's industrial machines. we started using these powders very successfully. but almost because of the

positive properties you feel boys here will be feeding the materials if you modify the tire of. a very stable. structure doesn't change. time little tool. so like you know if they can be used is decades in their properties would remain unchanged. and the benefits don't tend that it's also offers better equipped for vehicles reduce noise levels as well as increased resistance to rotting in cracking in addition to all the safety and economic benefits it also provides the perfect solution to the world's growing tide disposal problem but i bet these workers that just glad that they won't have to do this section of road again for another couple of decades i'm afraid that's all for today but with open using recently throughout the world i'm sure more of you will enjoy the ride.
