In the foreseeable future, can corn, sugar cane and other plant products really replace petroleum products on a large scale? Can disgustful waste oil be transformed into industrial oil? In these two days, the first national annual meeting of chemical engineering and biochemical industry was held in Nanjing. The emerging industrial biological technology became the focus of more than 1,000 academicians and scholars attending the conference. In real life, people's understanding of biotechnology may be more inclined to the widely used transgenic crops, biomedicine, or the use of biotechnology to develop new food additives, preservatives, and functional foods. However, in foreign countries, people have begun to extensively use biotechnology to transform traditional industries and promote the development of green manufacturing. For example, corn and soybeans can be used to produce "green plastics" to reduce the use of petroleum; the use of biotechnology in the textile industry can reduce the production of toxic byproducts in the dyeing and finishing process of textiles; the use of biological processes in the paper industry can significantly reduce the production Emissions of toxic by-products during the pulping process. Like the United States, corn has been transformed into a bioplastic on a large scale. Coca-Cola used it to make soft drink cups. McDonald's used it to make salad boxes, and Pacific Coast Feather Company tried to use it as a filler for pillows and quilts. In addition, Brazil uses sugar cane juice and slag as raw materials to produce fuel alcohol, while the EU produces more than 1 million tons of biodiesel from plants. China's current industrial economy has developed rapidly, but the ensuing high energy consumption and serious environmental pollution problems have attracted more and more attention. Many scientists are also trying to use biotechnology to transform traditional industries, reduce pollution and reduce Energy consumption even finds energy alternatives. For example, China's Heilongjiang and other northeastern regions are rich in corn resources, and the sugar cane production in the south is high. These raw materials are easily processed into sugar, and then many compounds such as ethanol are produced. China has also begun to try to incorporate about 10% of ethanol into gasoline, which can save gasoline on the one hand and reduce environmental pollution on the other. However, the situation in China is different from that in other countries. At present, we are still very nervous about food. The price of cooking oil is higher than that of diesel. We cannot use soy and rapeseed in large quantities to produce diesel, or use food to process fuel alcohol. However, we have our own advantages. For example, in some hilly areas in Jiangsu, there are many wild light-lined trees. The oil content in the fruits is very high. There are large tung trees in Sichuan, Yunnan, and other places. These plants have almost no food value and can be used as creatures. Diesel. Including the waste oil that people hate now is actually also a kind of resource. After the process is mature, it can refine fuel oil in large quantities. In addition, we also have a lot of poor quality foods, such as aging grains and inferior starchy cassava, which can be used as fuel alcohol. And the processing of appropriate grains into alcohol will create a stimulating effect on agriculture, keep grain prices in a reasonable position, and promote farmers' enthusiasm for income increase. At present, the world’s oil can only be used for 100 years, and coal reserves are not much. However, according to scientists’ estimates, the world’s annual reserves of biomass energy are 180 billion tons, which is an inexhaustible source of inexhaustible resources. At present, major breakthroughs have been made in the fuel ethanol technology and the biodiesel production process, and the biohydrogen production technology is in the research and development stage. With the development of science and technology, there will be a lot of biomass in the future that can be developed as industrial raw materials. To develop biomass energy, we can use “green gold†instead of “black goldâ€, which will greatly ease the pressure of energy shortage and improve people’s quality of life.
