Han Kongque saw a few words, lithium, uranium, and selenium, so he said in disbelief: "Don't tell me that he can extract these three trace elements from seawater."
Liuxu nodded heavily and said: "Satan's technicians are still able to extract these three trace elements from seawater. I don't need to say more about lithium and uranium. The focus is selenium. Do you know what kind of substance this is?"
"
"Uranium is not important anymore? It seems that no other element is as important as it? This thing is a strategic resource wherever it goes." Han Kongque said.
Liu Catkin said: "We all know what uranium is for and how important it is, but do you know what selenium is for?"
Han Peacock looked at the catkins and said: "Children like you who grew up in the city don't know what selenium is. I come from a rural area. I may not know about selenium. Don't I know about selenium-rich lands?"
Liu Xu glanced at Zhou Meiren and said, "Look, isn't it interesting? As long as you ask him, he will give you a standard answer. This man will not give you a chance to show off."
Han Kongque said with a smile: "I'm giving you a chance to show off. Selenium-rich land has nothing to do with selenium extraction. Now, you two women who have never even seen farming, give me a lesson."
Liu Xu said: "Then I will tell you something professional and let you know something powerful. Do you know what benefits selenium has on the human body?"
Han Peacock held his forehead: "Can you not challenge my IQ and just say it directly without asking, otherwise I can't help but say it, and you said that I didn't give you a chance to show off."
"Do you really know?" Liuxu said in surprise, this is a medical issue. Even if someone usually pays attention to this, they certainly won't understand it too well.
Han Peacock began to roll his eyes: "I have been studying cancer for such a long time. Do you think I know anything? If not, I will tell you what I know. Then you will have to find opportunities to supplement it."
"You know the selenium-rich land, I won't talk about it. Let me tell you something that interests you. They have done a lot of research in order to obtain selenium ore, and the by-products are various minerals. Not to mention ordinary ones. The most important one is uranium.
You know lithium and uranium ore, but lithium ore is also a very important raw material.
Lithium has a wide range of uses. In the metallurgical industry, lithium's ability to react with oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide is used to eliminate bubbles in metals. The conductivity of copper is often greatly affected by the presence of impurities, but copper doped with
Adding an appropriate amount of lithium can actually increase its conductivity.
Lithium glass is made by adding lithium to glass. It has high strength, good toughness, smooth and dense surface, and small thermal expansion. Therefore, lithium glass is widely used as the fluorescent screen of televisions.
In addition to these, lithium can also be regarded as a strategic resource. Lithium hydride is the hydride of lithium, which is a colorless crystal. The interaction between 1000 grams of lithium hydride and water can release 2800 liters of hydrogen, which is equivalent to a steel cylinder with a pressure of 150 atmospheres.
Stored hydrogen.
This will provide attractive prospects for using hydrogen as a power source. Needless to say, you can definitely imagine that whether it is a rocket or a missile, if hydrogen is used as fuel, the speed will definitely not be comparable to that of ordinary missiles. Of course, there are also
The range will also be greatly extended, which is extremely helpful for your missile strategy.
In addition to these, the most eye-catching thing is that lithium is used as a fuel for thermonuclear reactions and as an explosive in hydrogen bombs. On June 17, 1967, our country successfully exploded the first hydrogen bomb, which was filled with deuterium (heavy hydrogen).
Lithium, 1000 grams of lithium deuteride is equivalent to 50,000 tons of explosives, which is 10 times more powerful than an atomic bomb."
"I really don't know about this. This lithium is actually the same as uranium. What about plutonium? You haven't said this yet?" Han Kongque said with a smile.
Liuxu also laughed: "Whether you really don't know or you pretend not to know, since you said that, I will assume that you really don't know. It is impossible for plutonium to be mined in nature. Plutonium is a radioactive element, and its half-life is
The longest isotope, plutonium-244, is 80.8 million years old.
Only certain rare earth minerals exist in nature (due to their shorter half-lives compared to the age of the earth, they have basically decayed). Another isotope that exists in nature is plutonium 239, which is formed by absorbing natural neutrons from u238 (due to its low yield and low content)
Very small, only a very small amount exists in uranium ores), the only way to obtain plutonium industrially is to use u238 to capture neutrons in a reactor to produce it.
Therefore, they have the technology to obtain uranium and a nuclear reactor. It should not be difficult to obtain some plutonium. This is the source of the two miniature nuclear bombs in your hand. Is there anything else you want to know?"
Han Kongque said: "Quantity, I want to know how many kilograms of these elements they can extract every year."
Liuxu said: "It's enough for use. Although there are very few elements in seawater, there is a lot of seawater. Therefore, although it is difficult to refine these things, if you want, the output can be increased infinitely."
Han Peacock said directly: "Cost."
Liu Xu said: "You don't have to be so smart, do you? Except for selenium, refining uranium and lithium is a loss-making business, so the greater the output, the more losses will be incurred. This is why Satan and the others cannot make money with this technology.
Of course, another reason is for safety. After all, these elements are very sensitive. If they are known to the outside world, they will definitely be punished. Therefore, these things are kept secret by Satan.
Even if he had the means to buy it easily from other places, he would not do it, but would waste time and money refining it from the sea, because it is the safest way. Once he has a trump card in his hand, he will naturally not be afraid of others knowing about it."
Han Peacock was a little surprised: "Refining these things from seawater uses a gradual separation method, right? In this way, the cost of refining these minerals should be about the same. Why is refining selenium not losing money?"
Liu Xu and Zhou Meiren laughed at the same time, and Zhou Meiren said: "Finally there is something you don't know."
When Liu Xu saw that Han Peacock was about to open his mouth, he hurriedly said: "You don't have to say anything, I will."
Zhou Meiren said: "Tell me about the benefits of selenium in selenium-rich land, so that Korean peacocks can also gain insights."
"Selenium has been confirmed by the World Health Organization and is hailed by scientists as the 'god of vision protection' and the 'king of anti-cancer'." Liu Xu looked at Han Peacock and said.
"The King of Anti-Cancer?" Han Peacock really doesn't know this.
"Where does this go? Selenium is known as the king of anti-cancer, the messenger of brightness, the patron saint of the heart, the natural enemy of liver disease, insulin among trace elements, and it can also detoxify, detoxify, antioxidant and anti-aging, and is used in the male body.
The gold, the gospel of skin diseases, the angel in white of the gastrointestinal tract, how about it, you don’t know?" Liu Catkin said.
Han Peacock saw the catkins talking endlessly and quickly stopped him: "Let's not talk about other things. Let's talk about how it fights cancer?"
Liu Xu said: "Selenium is called by scientists the 'King of Anti-Cancer' among trace elements in the human body. Research has found that the level of blood selenium is closely related to the occurrence of cancer. A large amount of survey data shows that in the food and soil of a region,
The level of selenium content is directly related to the incidence of cancer.
For example: if the selenium content in food and soil in an area is high, the incidence and mortality of cancer will be low. On the contrary, the incidence and mortality of cancer in this area will be high. Facts show that selenium is closely related to the occurrence of cancer. At the same time,
The scientific community also recognizes that selenium is the 'king of anti-cancer' among trace elements in the human body."
Han Kongque said: "Is this why Satan separated selenium from sea water? But how come I heard that selenium is a poisonous substance?"
"Selenium is a toxic element. Excessive intake can cause poisoning, leading to hair loss, liver damage, gastrointestinal diseases, nervous system abnormalities, etc. Selenium taken in from diet and pills every day is safe as long as it does not exceed 400 micrograms."
Catkin said.
Han Kongque said: "So you have to be very careful?"
Liu Xu said: "That's of course, but selenium can't work if it's too much or too little in the body. In 1935, the medical community discovered that an endemic cardiomyopathy was prevalent in Keshan County, Heilongjiang Province. The cause was unknown.
It was named 'Keshan disease'.
After investigating the water and soil in the disease area, scientists believed that the cause of the disease was caused by a lack of selenium in the local water and soil. By supplementing selenium in the diet, the mountain disease has disappeared in Keshan County and has not happened again since 1982.
Through surveys in other parts of the world, it has also been found that those with low levels of selenium in the body have a high incidence of cardiovascular disease, especially for men. Selenium is an essential trace element for the human body. Foods rich in selenium include
Seafood, nuts, meat, etc.
The vast area extending from the northeast to the southwest of our country is a selenium-deficient zone, and 67% of the population needs selenium supplements. The selenium content that people consume from their daily diet is about 100 micrograms per day on average, so there are many "selenium-rich products" currently on the market.
"Foods and health products are all developed based on the important role of selenium."
Han Kongque nodded and said: "From this point of view, refining selenium from seawater should be able to return the money. However, it seems that the role of selenium can be amplified, right?"
Liu Xu said: "Of course, in addition to the above effects, if a piece of land is transformed with selenium to form the selenium-rich land you just mentioned, then the selenium-rich agricultural products produced on this land will be the same as colorful agricultural products, green agricultural products, slimming agricultural products, etc.
They are also among the health-care agricultural products.
Not only that, selenium can also effectively stimulate crop growth, significantly improve crop stress resistance and lodging resistance, improve fruit yield and quality, and at the same time activate and improve soil, improve soil fertility, and eliminate chemical residues and pollution in the soil.
It will be useful in those green industrial bases."
"It is indeed good to use selenium to transform selenium-rich land, but you should know what I value. Just tell me how this selenium can fight cancer." Han Kongque said.
Liu Xu said: "Even if it fights cancer, I have nothing to do with cancer. You should first find a way to make cancer contagious! You must know that cancer cells will undergo apoptosis in a very short time after they are separated from the body. Even if it is a human
If you come into contact with cancer cells, you will not be infected even if there are wounds in your body." (To be continued...)
