Chapter 723 [Commercialization of a series of application scenarios is imminent]
The biggest problem with graphene materials is that they cannot be mass-produced on a large scale, which makes the cost of this new material very high and hinders its commercialization process.
Unexpectedly, the Costa delle has found the initial technology to produce mass production. What's the point?
Finally, Luo Sheng's voice came again.
"Water is the source of life on which we humans rely on. Although 71% of the surface of our planet is covered by water, 99.99% of the water is sea water that cannot be directly consumed."
"According to incomplete statistics, about 660 million people live in areas without drinking water supply in the world. Although many countries in the world are trying to develop seawater desalination filtration systems in coastal areas, their high costs make these technical solutions unable to truly achieve mass production development."
Obviously, everyone could hear it, and Luo Sheng began to introduce the next technology.
"After all, most people and most countries are not as rich as the tyrants in the Middle East. Even tyrants cannot use the existing desalination system on a large scale to solve all water problems."
As soon as this was said, everyone burst into laughter. Even the richest man in the world said that the rich are super rich, that is really rich.
When some media reporters from Middle Eastern countries heard his words, they immediately raised their ears. Their country was rich and lacked water resources. They rushed into the ground and could not get out of groundwater, but they were in a dark and crude oil.
After the episode, Luo Sheng introduced in an orderly manner with a smiling face: "Another technical research team at Costa del Azure Laboratory has made a major breakthrough in the near future. We will launch a new cheap and efficient desalination solution, which the team hopes to change some of the status quo."
"What he uses is a technology we call 'graphene film filtration'. Kane Sax, the team's chief technical expert, is an authoritative scholar in the field of graphene. He has been in the Costa del Azure Laboratory for seven years. Since his career, he has published more than 200 scientific research papers in the field of graphene."
Another big touch-level figure is working for him. The Costa delle of the Azure Laboratory is full of talents.
The scientific research institutions under the Costa del Azure Company are spread all over the world and involve too many cutting-edge fields. Some college students have also found that it is difficult to see the most cutting-edge academic research of commercial returns in the medium and long term, and there are funding from the Costa del Azure.
North America is a little better. The Costa à la Côte d'Azur has received the most scientists from Europe, and the scientific research funding of countries in various parts of the continent is being reduced. The Costa à la Côte d'Azur's annual R&D investment has exceeded that of the entire UK.
In fact, whether it is the United Kingdom, France or Germany, the annual scientific research funding investment of a single country is not as high as that of the Costa del Azure company, and only the entire EU as a whole can suppress it.
The overall funding investment of the entire Western academic community has been reduced, so Luo Sheng naturally accepted these talents on a large scale. Not only did he accept these "scientific research refugees", but he also had to poach them.
It is no exaggeration to say that in addition to state capital, only Luo Sheng has supported basic scientific research on a large scale with private capital. In the past fifteen years, he has been working tirelessly and silently in-depth for the past fifteen years. When the early income is not large, he invests less. As the income gradually increases, scientific research investment has become a positive correlation and continues to increase investment.
Now we finally start to get rewards.
Many industry insiders have nothing to say. This is not something that ordinary people can withstand. From 2004 to 2018, even the Costa delle has suffered 14 or 5 years of crazy investment to see the results today, and it has not really started to make money and recover R&D costs.
Other companies have been around fifteen years, and may not be able to support them in two or three years.
Industry insiders are very clear that monopoly high-tech products are indeed huge profits, but the risks are also overwhelming. If the research and development of the graphene project on the Costa çare fails, the capital cost, time cost and sunk costs invested over the past decade are unimaginable.
On the stage, a second cylindrical platform rose from the floor, and the close-up was focused on a piece of film material placed on the stage.
