Chapter 253 Bionic Fish Gills

Just after the National Day holiday, Zhou Yu came to the Materials Research Institute.

The Materials Research Institute has recently taken the lead, with 7 successful breakthroughs, most of which are systematic projects.

Zhou Yu first came to the bionic laboratory under the Materials Research Institute, which is a laboratory dedicated to the development of bionic materials.

Many animals and plants in nature contain rich natural scientific principles.

Darwin's theory of evolution proposes the survival of the fittest through natural selection, and organisms with imperfect evolution cannot pass on their genes in a complex competitive environment.

The director of the materials laboratory, Midoqi, knew that Zhou Yu had come to the laboratory he was in charge of, so he immediately put down his work and came out to welcome him.

Hi Mr. Zhou, I'm Midoqi, the director of the bionics laboratory. It's our honor that you come to our laboratory. Please tell me if you have any guidance.

Zhou Yu looked at Midoqi Qiqi Ai Ai, he waved his hand and said: Don't be too nervous, I am not a scourge, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

Feng Yunde didn't come with me this time because he has important work to deal with.

I came to your laboratory to learn about the bionic fish gills you declared a few days ago. I am very curious about this product.

The Materials Research Institute has applied for a series of marine development projects. It is one of the blue ocean projects of the scientific research center, and the blue ocean projects are jointly developed by multiple laboratories.

Among them, the bionic fish gills project is the cornerstone of this large project of Blue Ocean. Without bionic fish gills, many sub-projects of the Blue Ocean project cannot be started.

When Midoqi heard Zhou Yu's intention, his expression immediately relaxed.

He took Zhou Yu into the laboratory and introduced: Mr. Zhou, the bionic fish gills are just one of the many projects in our bionic laboratory. Its structure is not complicated at all, and it is the first completed project.

Zhou Yu walked into the laboratory, and he saw the finished product of bionic fish gills.

There are two types of bionic fish gills, one is like an oxygen tube, it has two small ducts put into the nose, and the end of the ducts is a leaf-like substance.

Another model is a transparent semi-circular helmet with a beautiful hollow pattern on it.

Midoqi briefly introduced the situation of bionic fish gills to Zhou Yu.

We've developed materials that can separate oxygen from water, but it's not efficient at all.

The surface area of ​​the material needs to be as large as a football field if it is to be enough for a person to breathe.

This cannot be put into normal use at all, and this rate of separating oxygen is already the limit of the material in a short period of time.

We can only look elsewhere and find ways to enhance the effect of this material.

Looking at the gills of fish, the efficiency of the gill cells in separating oxygen is not as good as our material.

The structure of fish gills is very delicate, which can help functional cells to quickly separate oxygen in water.

We use quantum computers to repeatedly simulate the structure of fish gills to find out how it generates this special structure.

Finally, based on the original material, a bionic fish gill product is manufactured.

It allows people to breathe freely in the water and swim in the water like a fish.

Why are you two products? Is it for different underwater environments? Can the two products really deal with complex underwater environments? Zhou Yu asked, pointing to the two products in front of him.

Midoqi first picked up the two ducts, which are bionic fish gills, and he inserted the two protruding ducts directly into the nostrils, and the product pressed against the nose.

The leaf structure in front is close to the cheeks on both sides of the nose, and the catheter is tightly stuck on the bridge of the nose.

This is a product for shallower waters. The dissolved oxygen in the shallow water area is higher and the water pressure is lower. It does not affect the external bionic fish gills.

For every 10 meters of water depth, the pressure on the object increases by one atmosphere.

Our human body is relatively comfortable and the diving depth without tools is generally about 10 meters.

In this state, spontaneous breathing is relatively smooth. Once the water depth exceeds 10 meters, breathing will become difficult.

This kind of bionic fish gills, which are only placed in the nostrils, is prone to accidents when the spontaneous breathing function is difficult.

The pressure of the water also puts some pressure on the bionic gills, causing them to protrude from the nostrils.

Based on these conditions, this kind of bionic fish gills can only be used in shallow water.

Zhou Yu nodded, and asked again: Why do these bionic fish gills have to be stuffed in the nose instead of in the mouth?

Midoqi explained the reason for their choice: Mr. Zhou, this is a choice made carefully after considering various situations.

There are two main influences. One is that humans are more accustomed to breathing through the nose, and only use the mouth to breathe when it is difficult to breathe through the nose. We follow our own habits.

The second is that they cannot control breathing through their mouth or nose when they are used by novices or in emergency situations, and they often breathe through their mouth and nose together.

The bionic fish gills are placed in the nose. When breathing through the mouth and nose at the same time, water enters the mouth, and a person can drink a small amount of water into the stomach by drinking water.

The human body's response also reminds the user to breathe through the nose.

If the bionic fish gills are placed in the mouth and the mouth and nose are used to breathe at the same time, the water will be choked into the lungs through the nose.

As long as a small amount of water is choked into the lungs, people will cough violently and cause serious discomfort, which is very easy to cause drowning accidents.

After explaining the reasons for their choice, Midoch put the second type of bionic fish gills on his head.

This kind of bionic fish gills belongs to the real bionic fish gills, and the hollow pattern on its transparent helmet is set according to the structure of fish gills.

This material does not allow water to pass through, but it can absorb oxygen in water.

It cooperates with the diving suit, and the diver can work in the water for a long time without using an oxygen cylinder.

In water with insufficient dissolved oxygen, as long as the bionic fish gills are powered, it can capture oxygen atoms in water molecules to synthesize oxygen.

In the lower part of the helmet, we installed a carbon dioxide gas discharge channel, even if you wear a bionic gill helmet in the water for a long time, you will not suffocate due to excessive carbon dioxide.

Zhou Yu gave a thumbs up and praised: Your bionic fish gills are very well developed. The shallow water version of the bionic fish gills is mainly used for entertainment, and the deep water version of the bionic fish gills can prepare for our future development of the ocean.

After he encouraged the researchers in the bionics laboratory, he left the bionics laboratory and walked towards the nearby marine materials laboratory.

Bionic fish gills are a very promising product. The deep-water version is mainly used to develop the ocean. Humans do not need external oxygen supply to survive underwater for a long time, so that they can achieve the goal of marching into the ocean.

Human beings don't understand the ocean as well as the solar system, and there are too many secrets in the ocean waiting to be explored by the forerunners.

The shallow water version of bionic fish gills is mainly sold to the market.

Every year, elementary and middle school students drown because of playing in water. The water where the students drown is very shallow, but they are killed for various reasons.

After the bionic fish gills are on the market, these problems are no longer a problem.

The cost of bionic fish gills is very low, and Zhou Yu is going to donate a batch of bionic fish gills to various primary, middle and primary schools across the country.

Bionic fish gills are also a good tool for people to learn to swim. Some people are naturally afraid of water and even drown in swimming pools.

As long as they wear the bionic gills, they will be able to learn to swim.
