Origin: Phrase of the Soviet writer Ilya Ilf (1897-1937). According to the memoirs of G. Moonblit, this is "a playful slogan that he liked to repeat, looking at the numerous disorders of Moscow in the early 30s" ("Ilya Ilf", in the collection "Memoirs of I. Ilf and E. Petrov", 1963). The same thought in the feuilleton by Ilya Ilf and Yevgeny Petrov "Day Inn" (1933): "It's time to start the fight for sweeping the streets. The struggle is going on, but the streets are not swept."

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Synthetic fuel Haru Oni 14.12.2020

Porsche AG and Siemens Energy, together with other international companies, are building the world's first integrated facility for the production of climate-neutral synthetic fuels (eFuels) on an industrial scale in Chile.

The "Haru Oni" pilot project, deployed in the province of Magallanes, uses the rich wind resources in southern Chile to produce climate-neutral fuel using "green" electricity generated by wind turbines. As part of Germany's national hydrogen strategy, Siemens Energy receives funding for this project of about 8 million euros from the Federal Ministry of Economics and Energy.

At the pilot stage of the project, about 2022 liters of synthetic fuel will be produced already in 130. Then, in two stages, the production volume is planned to be increased to about 000 million liters per year by 2024, and to about 55 million liters per year by 2026. At the end of the pilot phase, the project participants plan to bring the joint development to the industrial level of production - the corresponding declaration of intent has already been signed.

According to Oliver Bloom, CEO of Porsche, synthetic fuels are an additional ingredient on the road to decarbonisation. The benefits of synthetic fuel, he says, lie in its ease of use: it is suitable for internal combustion engines and plug-in hybrids, and it can also use the existing network of gas stations.

The production works as follows: a wind farm generates electricity, which is used to split water into components - oxygen and hydrogen. In the second stage, CO2 is filtered directly from the air and then combined with hydrogen to form synthetic methanol. The methanol is then converted into a climate-neutral fuel using ExxonMobil's licensed MTG technology (MTG - Methanol-to-Gasoline: methanol to gasoline).

Porsche AG plans to use synthetic fuel from Chile in the first phase in its own pilot projects. For example, in the vehicles of the Porsche Motorsports Division, and in the long run in the Porsche Experience Centers and the existing vehicle fleet. For this purpose, the automotive company will initially invest about 20 million euros.
