Chapter 246 The Hero Who Sacrifices Himself for Others
Tian Zhiyuan is one of the scientists in the Radiation Laboratory under the Particle Research Institute.
They are studying nuclear waste disposal projects. Nuclear power plants have become the most important power generation facilities in today's society.
The nuclear waste produced every year is landfilled in no-man's land, which is a palliative, not a permanent solution.
Nuclear power plants are very safe, but the reason why people talk about nuclear power plants is because if an accident occurs in a nuclear power plant, it will cause a very serious leakage of radioactive materials.
It does not pollute for a while, but causes long-term pollution to the surrounding water and air.
One of the two most serious nuclear leaks in history, and the most crude nuclear leak, the Fukushima nuclear power plant accident.
Even after more than ten years of influence, it still continues to play a role.
The Japanese government brutally poured seawater into the nuclear power plant directly, and discharged the polluted sewage directly into the sea.
As a result, the concentration of radiation in the sea area around the country is extremely high, and genetic mutations have occurred in all organisms. These polluted seawater drifted along the ocean currents to the west coast of the United States and spread to the whole world.
Tian Zhiyuan is going to try to deal with the nuclear waste that has undergone a chain reaction through physical, chemical and biological methods. Its radioactive concentration is still very high.
The goal of the project is to eliminate or neutralize the radioactive hazards of these extremely difficult-to-handle radioactive substances.
Tian Zhiyuan and the others were wearing radiation protection suits, staring at the reactor for nuclear waste processing in the laboratory, which was one meter high.
"Add Substance 128."
The robot began to add substance No. 128 to the reactor according to Tian Zhiyuan's order.
This is a silicon-based polymer material that, when tested in the laboratory, has shown the ability to absorb neutrons.
Most of the matter radiated from nuclear waste is neutrons, as long as it can absorb neutrons. By mixing this material with nuclear waste and storing it, the radioactive pollution hazard of nuclear waste can be eliminated.
[Alarm, a high-energy reaction phenomenon occurs in the reactor, and an extremely strong complex high-energy magnetic field is generated. 】
[Alarm, please terminate the reaction process, the contents of the reactor may undergo a nuclear reaction. 】
[Alarm, the laboratory robot was damaged by a high-energy magnetic field and is no longer able to operate. Please terminate the reaction process manually. 】
Tian Zhiyuan was shocked. This is just nuclear waste. How could there be a nuclear reaction.
He had no time to think about it, and immediately opened the protective door of the laboratory and rushed in.
Tian Zhiyuan rushed into the laboratory and immediately opened the lid of the reactor manually, and a stream of high-energy particles was ejected directly from the reactor.
It blasted a hole more than ten centimeters out of the two-meter-thick concrete wall.
A small amount of high-energy particle stream scattered nearby hit it.
At this moment, Yu Zhenfeng rushed to the laboratory with an outside rescue team. When he came again, he had already learned about the specific situation through Xianghua.
"Quickly carry out the rescue, remove the radioactive substances on Tian Zhiyuan's body, remove the radioactive substances in the laboratory, and try to protect the laboratory site as much as possible."
Tian Zhiyuan was in a coma. After being decontaminated by radioactive substances by a professional team, he was quickly sent to a modern medical laboratory for emergency rescue.
Zhou Yu soon got the news, he rushed from Chen Jin's labor waiting ward to Tian Zhiyuan's ward.
Outside the ward, he saw Yu Zhenfeng who had just arrived after dealing with the accident.
"What's going on here? I simply checked some accident data through Xianghua, and found that a nuclear reaction occurred in the reactor." Zhou Yu asked in surprise.
Yu Zhenfeng nodded, and said with emotion: "No one knows what the characteristics of a certain material are?
After this material absorbs neutrons, the silicon atom will generate a huge nuclear force, and the two hydrogen atoms connected by the silicon atom will approach each other, and an atomic polymerization reaction will occur.
This is similar to the reaction process of the hydrogen bomb, but its reaction intensity is not as strong as that of the hydrogen bomb, and it does not even reach the level of the atomic bomb, which is far beyond that of conventional bombs, and it releases extremely strong battery waves.
The reaction process just now affected the entire North China region, very much like a large-scale electromagnetic bomb experiment.
This is still because the materials have not fully reacted. It is true that all materials undergo polymerization reactions, and at least half of the staff in our particle research institute is not. "
"It turned out to be like this. Tian Zhiyuan made a great contribution, and we must rescue him at all costs."
"I will report this kind of material to the relevant department in a while. It is a material that must be controlled by the state. If it is leaked from our Xinghuo Technology, it will be a sinner.
This material can undergo nuclear reactions, and its preparation is relatively simple. It is not as powerful as a nuclear bomb, but it is comparable to a dirty bomb.
Just mix some radioactive material with this material, such as natural radioactive ore. It can be made into a weapon of mass destruction.
This kind of technology is spread to some small countries, and it may be controlled. If it is spread to the hands of extremists, it will easily cause extremely bad effects. "
Zhou Yu immediately reported the relevance of this material to the relevant state departments through the confidential hotline.
He knew that anyone who knew the properties of this material would be closely watched by the state, and it would be almost impossible for him to go abroad in the future, even his relatives and friends would not go abroad.
However, Zhou Yu had to do this. The production method of this relatively simple weapon of mass destruction must not be disclosed. You must know that China also has extremist forces.
"It has been dealt with. The country will send relevant personnel from the Military Commission and the Ministry of State Security to deal with it. You should contact them." Zhou Yu instructed Zhenfeng.
He walked into Tian Zhiyuan's ward and saw that Tian Zhiyuan was still in a coma.
The heart and lungs, a large artificial organ placed in the incubator, pass through the catheter to assist Tian Zhiyuan in breathing and blood circulation.
Zhou Yu rushed to the conference room of the modern medical laboratory again, where Wang Xiaoxiao and the doctor were having a joint consultation.
Zhou Yu asked them: "How is Tian Zhiyuan's condition? He has made great contributions to the company. We must rescue him at all costs."
Wang Xiaoxiao frowned and said: "In the past, Tian Zhiyuan was sure to die, but now we only have 30% certainty to save Tian Zhiyuan.
I watched the live animation, most of the high-energy particles rushed to the roof, and a small number of high-energy particles were released through parabolic orbits.
The highest point of the orbit was only at the same level as Tian Zhiyuan's neck, and the high-energy particles did not hurt Tian Zhiyuan's brain.
Tian Zhiyuan was wearing a radiation protection suit, and most of the high-energy particles rushing towards him were absorbed by the radiation protection suit, which caused extensive organ failure, and he did not die instantly from the impact of high-energy particles.
Our current treatment method can only be to replace all the organs below Tian Zhiyuan's neck.
This is equivalent to recreating a body that can perform physiological activities in addition to the human head. Our challenge is very great.
We have a good grasp of artificial organs now, but we are only 30% sure of a human body composed entirely of artificial organs and artificial tissues. "
Zhou Yu asked again in disbelief: "Tian Zhiyuan's treatment method can only be to change the body?"
"There is no other way but to change the body. His entire body from the neck down was impacted by high-energy particles, and all the cells have collapsed.
Now we have gradually given up on his body, and we are doing our best to ensure the support of his brain through the extracorporeal heart-lung machine. "Wang Xiaoxiao confirmed again.
