Solid British tech. uk.ooni.com/products/ooni-koda-2-maxYou'd have to be mad or have a death-wish to use anything gas-powered designed in China. We have the earlier model and it's fantastic. Cooks a perfect Neapolitan-style pizza in less than 60 seconds. In fact we're having one tonight. You can stick your 3nm deep ultraviolet where the sun doesn't shine. Tell us about something the Chinese have created that makes the world a better place. I was just looking at the wiki page and I do agree that it does qualify. Apparently it is Made in Edinburgh.
and is a new invention if we are to believe the quote above.
I can't claim to have seen any culinary tech from China that stands out, but if we look closely we might be something the Japs have. The Japs are the gadget kings.
China has loads of stuff that makes the world a better place though. I add them to the thread as I come across them. It isn't by far a complete list, and I've seen many others prior to starting the thread.
There is a great British invention which involves a novel compressor that totally outperforms any standard compressor, but I can't find it again. The Google algorithms are working strongly agaisnt me on that one. I believe it can cut the energy needed to compress a gas by some 30%. If you add up all the compressors in the world and how much energy 30% of that is, then you begin to see it is a giant leap. Every air conditioner in the world can be economised, and the life expectancy is far greater and also the noise is less. As per usual though it is one of those things that should get far more investment than it does. The energy saved would be equivalent to building quite a few power stations.

There is a good one here from Octopus energy. They are investing $16bn in a high voltage undersea DC cable that will run from Britain to Morocco where it will send 8GW of solar and 3.5GW of wind power together with a storage capacity of 22.5GWh.

I'm pleased to announce another bit of Brit tech. This is going on at my old uni up in Manchester and some other places in Blighty. It is about graphene. * new process for 2" graphene substrates * hall effect sensor 30x more sensitive and works down to almost absolute zero. * graphene bio sensor for detecting certain bacteria. Works faster than the original version.
The irony is it takes China to report it or we would never have known.

Its not only about Britain, Cambridge university 8 Germany 1 in regards to awards that you get for being a genius. Einstein got it its name escapes me.

The above video though gave me some hope. It's nice to see the Brits actually doing some proper science work, and it is nice to see the Chinese state broadcaster CGTN give them a thumbs up. The native Brits are often shit thick when it comes to tech. We must reverse the trend, and up in their graphene centre some good progress is being made. I don't think Cambridge is featured here. These are the Mancs. Manchester University has always been good at physics, but it was going down hill a bit in the last few years. This industrial collaboration is just what it needs. People won't do this shit unless they see the readies. That was the problem when I was there: loads of smart people, no money to keep them working on smart stuff.

We invented a process to make petrol from carbon captured CO2+ water. A process the Aussies are putting into production.
Our technology, their renewable electricity will be powering it.
Renewable hydrocarbons turn every car powered by them into a carbon neutral car. What has a dictatorship invented comparable to that?

You need energy to recombine those molecules into a hydrocarbon, which is about the same energy you get from combusting it. |

Huge solar power station in the Australian desert powering it.
And the process was developed at Stockton on Tees over a decade ago.

Your link is under a paywall so no good for readers. You'll have to copy and paste or use a different link. Can we at least have the names of those who have succeeded and what they make?
I think you will find on here few people pay money to subscribe to MSM.

No 5 might be a scam since all collagen studies were commissioned by firms with interests in it.
Collagen is synthesised by the body but needs vitamin C, zinc and protein to work. Low protein diets are likely the cause for lack of natural collagen synthesis.
You can see why it is popular. The only other one is a cleaning product.
I think my example above of the firm Paragraf is much more where it is at. The production technique was invented by some older guy who looks like he is at least in his 60s. These intelligent and open-minded scientists types seem to be a dying breed.
