    Specialists of the Materials Science and Technology Department of Composite, Magnetic and Special Materials of JSC High-Technological Research Institute of Inorganic Materials. A.A. Bochvara (part of the Rosatom Fuel Company TVEL) was one of the first in Russia to obtain samples of silicon carbide fiber (SiC-fiber) containing 10-12% oxygen. This is the first step towards creating an oxygen-free SiC fiber (with an oxygen content of less than 5%), which will allow scientists to get closer to creating a new generation of fuel elements based on silicon carbide.

    Further improvement of the oxygen-free fiber manufacturing technology will significantly increase the heat resistance, heat resistance, and corrosion resistance of the SiC composite. “There is a great demand for silicon carbide fiber in Russia, as it is used in aircraft and shipbuilding, space and many other industries. Currently, no one produces long-length - more than 100 meters - fiber in the Russian Federation. This makes the VNIINM project in demand for the development of not only nuclear energy, but also other branches of the domestic industry,” said Alexei Glebov, project manager at VNIINM JSC.

For more than ten years, engineers have been developing the mechanism and principle of operation of a machine that can provide an entire house with heat, light, hot and clean drinking water. Let's tell you what happened in the end.

Now there will be no problems with heat, light and water. And all this without the use of boiler rooms, power lines and other communications. Such a “communal paradise without hassle and worries”, as the song says, may appear in Russia in the near future thanks to the unique development of Pskov scientists. In the laboratories of Pskov State University, they designed an autonomous life support module, the "heart" of which is a rotary-vane engine with an external heat supply.

  • Young scientists of the Russian Space Systems holding (RSS, part of the Roscosmos State Corporation) presented a project of a spacecraft for collecting and disposing of garbage in Earth orbit (SCM - space debris collector) at the international Salon of Inventions and Innovative Technologies "Archimedes" in Moscow. 2019". This is original solution, suggesting the possibility of recycling fragments of spent satellites and upper stages into fuel, which will then be used by the device itself to continue cleaning higher orbits from debris.

    The presented project, developed and patented by an RCC employee on an initiative basis, involves the creation of a spacecraft that, with the help of a special network, will be able to collect failed small satellites, fragments of spacecraft and upper stages, and other operational debris.

    The author of the project, RKS research engineer Maria Barkova: “The fundamental difference between our solution and existing similar projects is the processing of space debris into pseudo-liquid fuel. This allows us to solve several problems at once - to ensure waste-free destruction of debris and the maximum life of the apparatus, as well as to minimize the cost of its launch into orbit. In fact, our apparatus will act as a predator that preys on garbage in order to obtain additional energy.

  • Chepetsk Mechanical Plant (ChMZ JSC, part of the Rosatom Fuel Company TVEL) received a patent of the Russian Federation for a wire for processing metallurgical melts and a method for its manufacture.

    The patented method is used for the production, among other things, of calcium injection wire (CIP). The unique technology was developed by specialists of the Chepetsk Mechanical Plant several years ago, which opened up new opportunities for the domestic metallurgical industry. And today the Chepetsk Mechanical Plant is the only Russian manufacturer calcium injection wire from electrolytic calcium of our own production.

    KIP is a monolithic electrolytic calcium in a steel shell. It is used for the optimal mode of out-of-furnace treatment of metallurgical melts, which improves the performance properties of steel. Due to the better assimilation of calcium, it saves material by 3-5 times compared to traditional calcium-cored wire.

    Sechenov University announced the development of a mobile artificial kidney. The invention will make it possible to "untie" those suffering from renal insufficiency. While they are forced to spend several hours in a lying position.

    Patients are forced to stay in a lying or semi-sitting position for several hours due to the bulkiness of the devices that filter the blood. This is the so-called dialysis, or blood purification. The alternative is a kidney transplant. But until the transplant takes place, a person suffering from kidney failure has to be tied to a hospital bed.

    Sechenov University has proposed a new alternative. Scientists have invented a device that will allow dialysis solution to be pumped through a catheter into the abdominal cavity. The device can be carried in a backpack. It weighs 3.5 kilograms. This is an artificial portable kidney.

    “The apparatus consists of a system of pumps and valves that circulate liquid through a system of filters for mechanical cleaning, while the device is controlled via a smartphone, ”explained the press service of the university.

    The first tests have already been passed. The device has been tested on animals. Tests have shown that the device is safe. It is claimed that it helped to increase the efficiency of blood purification several times.

    The automotive industry has stood out. Various machines and their components were presented in abundance. The hype was created by fundamentally new technologies. In particular, hydrogen-powered vehicles. In general, among hundreds of exhibits it is difficult to single out a clear favorite! You can look at some of the things on the video from YouTube:

    Behind modern technologies worth the future development of civilization. New devices, technologies and methods - all this is actively promoting now. Innovative models of the future are truly worthy of attention! Are you looking for a technique for yourself? Pay attention to new items, the same cameras and Appliances. They are becoming more versatile and budget-friendly. Just like laptops, PCs, phones.

    If you return to the mid-90s, it will take you a very long time to get used to life there. And it's not like you'll get used to it. The point is not that the dollar then cost 3926 rubles, but that it was a world without the ubiquitous Internet and without mobile phones. We decided to figure out which technologies will also change our reality in the coming years.

    1.

    At first we liked Google Glass glasses with their augmented reality and the ability to shoot everything you see, but then we realized that they have one a big problem. This is not the price and not the software, but the fact that in Google Glass anyone looks like a complete idiot. By the way, people from Google also understood this - they invited a designer from Apple and sent the product for revision. But while the glasses are completed, it may turn out that no one will need them anymore, because "smart" contact lenses are on the way.

    Less pretentious and visible to others, they are able to endow a person with Terminator supervision. So, the company Innovega, which at one time worked on a project of such lenses for the US military in collaboration with the DARPA agency, now plans to release a civilian version called iOptik.

    In these lenses, you, of course, will not be able, like the hero of Schwarzenegger, to immediately determine whether the size of your opponent’s clothes will suit you in a fight, but you will receive email and messages from social networks right in the eye, and also see navigator tips right on the way to Sarah Connor. In addition, these "smart" lenses, like their ordinary counterparts, will correct your vision: you can read signs on the street even from a skyscraper window (they promise that iOptik will receive a built-in zoom).

    And since we started this article with Google products, we will end it with this - this company, in addition to the glasses mentioned, is also working on lenses too. Google is testing a model for diabetics: a system is built into the lenses that checks the sugar level in a person’s tears every second and sends the data to a smartphone. Perhaps in the future she will be able to display the sugar level directly on the picture that a person sees with the eye, as in computer game you see the state of health of your hero.

    Expected: in 2020

    Possible problems: and now about the sad thing - at the moment, for full-fledged work, iOptik "smart" lenses need glasses with built-in projectors, which display the entire surface on their surface. Additional information. Well, at least you don’t need to carry a backpack with batteries.

    2.

    The sky outside your window will soon become much more noisy as drones will deliver mail, parcels and purchases from stores. However, therefore, we’ll tell you better about what will happen to this food next. Scanners are on the way, which will be able to tell in detail exactly how many of these or those useful substances contained in what you are about to eat.

    Controlling your diet will be easier than ever. The Israeli company Consumer Phisics is ready to start producing such gadgets called SciO as soon as it raises $200,000 on the crowdfunding platform.

    A device the size of a flash card, by the light reflected from the product, will understand what it consists of, and, after checking with the cloud service, via Bluetooth, it will display the exact composition on the screen of your smartphone. Finally, it will be possible to check how "farm products" are environmentally friendly.

    Expected: in 2017

    Possible problems: problems with the scanner do not seem to be expected, but as for drones, everything is not so cloudless. Already, flying robots in some cities is banned, and given the ever-increasing security measures, it will not be easy for them to get a green light.

    3.

    A virtual reality is becoming more and more real, and helmets like the Oculus Rift are proof of this. Soon it will be possible, wearing special glasses or a helmet, to instantly not only see the most distant countries but also to feel their aroma. Professor Harvard University David Edwards, in partnership with his student Rachel Field, has already shown a device called oPhone, which can form up to 300,000 smells from special cartridges, so this future is not far off.

    “Virtual leisure can become great way stress relief, says Professor Karol Zliczynski from the Silesian University of Technology. - Research shows that virtual walk even more relaxing than the regular one.

    Expected: in 2017

    Possible problems: better to refrain from using when watching porn and horror movies.

    4.

    Arkady Raikin also called for tying a dynamo machine to the ballerina's leg so that it would generate current. And he was right. “Our bodies are constantly producing energy, some of which goes nowhere,” says Dr Joe Briscoe of Queen Mary University of London. “If we could use at least part of it, the problem of suddenly dead phones would be solved.”

    Dr. Briscoe is experimenting with piezoelectric materials that generate energy when they are stretched or squeezed. This technology also has a second plus - clothing made from such materials allows you to track every movement of a person, which can be useful when caring for the sick or monitoring criminals under house arrest.

    Expected: next year

    Possible problems: while the material turns out to be quite hard and unpleasant for the body, so such clothes will not suit either ballerinas or athletes.

    5.

    Another hero of Yevgeny Leonov tried to study in a dream in "Big Break". He didn't succeed. And you can make it.

    Dream analysis was useful in Freud's time, but your dream may serve you differently in the future. Neurological studies show that sleep learning is real, the main thing is to synchronize it with a person’s sleep phases (and today even fitness bracelets have learned to track them). How about learning kung fu with Neo from The Matrix?

    In a dream, the brain structures and “sorts out” the knowledge gained during the day, and it is quite possible to influence this process by stimulating neurons and strengthening memory.

    Expected: in 2030

    Possible problems: most likely, it will not be possible to completely move learning to sleep, and at night we will only be able to consolidate the previously studied material.

    6.

    Green ways to generate electricity are already saving the planet, but it doesn't show up on your electricity bill. But nothing, soon everything will fall into place: environmentally friendly current will pour into your sockets, and "green" (and this time we are talking about dollars) - into your pockets.

    Draw a square meter by meter on the wall next to the window of your apartment. One fine (and already near) day, as soon as the sun floods it with its light, you will receive a stream of electricity capable of lighting 7 100-watt light bulbs.

    Scientists today are close to creating a paint that replaces solar panels, which can supply your house with energy, and possibly money (if you decide to sell excess electricity to neighbors). This paint contains so-called quantum dots - microscopic conductors or semiconductors. When it goes on sale, you will be able to read with a smile the news that "tariffs for the population in 2017-18 will grow at a faster pace."

    Expected: in 2019

    Possible problems: So far, the effectiveness of the paint is 15-20 times lower than that of conventional solar panels.

    7.

    Scientists will soon be able to grow new legs, lungs, fingers, or hairy scalps directly on a patient's body. You don't have much in common with an amphibian. Alas. Cut off her leg and she will grow back, fully functional and completely healthy. Do the same trick with you, and the result will be tragic.

    Scientists believe that this is temporary. They are working on the technology of growing spare parts based on the patient's own stem cells directly on his body. If now, after transplantation of a donor organ, a person has to take drugs that suppress immunity all his life, then with an organ or limb obtained from its cells, the body will get used to it much easier. Especially if a transplant operation is not required.

    In the summer of 2015, biotechnologists from the Massachusetts Hospital at Harvard University were already able to get a fully functional rat paw in a few weeks, and they are much more proud of it than the kidneys, lungs and heart recreated using a similar algorithm earlier.

    The fact is that the paw (read - leg or arm) is more complicated, as it consists of muscles, bones, cartilage, ligaments, nerves and blood vessels, but everything went well. And although this paw grew in a test tube, in the future it is planned to transfer this process to the patient's body.

    “Already today we see an almost unlimited potential for creating any part of the human body,” says Dr. David Pan, head of research program at the British Regenerative Medical Platform. - The goal is to learn how to use the patient's own stem cells to repair cells or tissues in the field, which can turn transplantology upside down, because there will be no need to do transplants of anything. This will be a revolution in medicine!”

    Expected: in 2025

    Possible problems: in the foreseeable future, such treatments will be very expensive. Even small "spare parts" for experimental rodents cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

    8.

    Late diagnosis and improper treatment are the main killers on our planet. It's time to send them in three letters - DNA. It could just be a dust allergy, or it could be dengue, syphilis, or the Ebola virus. Fear of illness can be a thing of the past along with unpleasant medical procedures like gastro- or colonoscopy, which will seem as barbaric as bloodletting seems today.

    The era of DNA medicine is coming. public service The British Health Service (NHS) has committed £300,000,000 to the massive 100,000 Genomes Project, which will sequencing the genomes of 100,000 people with cancer or a rare hereditary disease. Similar projects, but on a smaller scale, exist in other countries. Their goal is not only to learn to notice the signs of a future disease as early as possible, but also to select the most effective means of dealing with it according to the patient's DNA.

    Dr. Jeff Barrett, genetic researcher at the Sanger Institute, believes that our DNA will replace the usual medical records, allowing doctors to receive all necessary information about what's going on inside you without having to intrude into your body from the front or back door.
