Chapter 387: Fusion reactor

Text Chapter 387 Fusion Reactor
After sending away the pilot, Chen Xin's attention naturally shifted to the batch of weapon-grade enriched uranium.
This is a good thing in the true sense and a big killer.
There are only a handful of countries in the world that can manufacture enriched uranium of this weapon-grade purity, and the small and idle countries simply do not have the scientific and technological strength and industrial strength to research related technologies.
Coupled with the control and blockade of nuclear technology by the five gangsters, it is even more difficult for small countries to have the opportunity to research and manufacture such weapons-grade nuclear materials.
If it is placed before the disaster, such a batch of nuclear materials that can produce 100,000 tons of equivalent tactical nuclear bombs is very valuable. Although the cost of a kilogram of weapon-grade enriched uranium is about half a million US dollars, it is actually valuable. There is no market, let alone waiting for idlers, waiting for idle countries can not buy.
Before the disaster, if anyone could resell such a batch of nuclear raw materials, not to mention whether the money was made or not, but at least a few lifetimes would not be able to spend so much money.
If Chen Xin is not in Yan Guo, a nuclear power, and the country has the ability to manufacture nuclear weapons and nuclear materials, he should not easily come into contact with nuclear materials of this level. Instead, he can consider buying some uranium ore to purify himself. After all, before the disaster Uranium ore is only regulated and the price is not expensive.
However, thanks to the country's blessings and got this batch of weapon-grade enriched uranium, Chen Xin naturally has no need to slowly purify the uranium ore and make enriched uranium himself.
The reason why Chen Xin needed to enrich uranium was to build a fusion reactor.
Some people may be wondering that enriched uranium is obviously the raw material for fission reaction. How can it be used to build a fusion reactor?
It's not that Chen Xin got it wrong or that he planned to upgrade the fission furnace to a fusion furnace forcibly through the system, but it was indeed possible to use the fission furnace to build a fusion reactor.
Before explaining how to do this, we first need to know that the fuel for fusion reactions is usually the two isotopes of hydrogen, deuterium and tritium. Although deuterium has a huge stock in nature, tritium needs to be artificially produced.
The method of producing tritium is to use the neutrons produced by the fission reaction to bombard the lithium 6 compound target, and then a large amount of tritium can be obtained.
After that, only need to enrich the tritium to more than 99% by thermal diffusion method, then fusion reaction can be used.
Of course, what you get by doing this directly is just a violent thermonuclear fusion reaction, which is commonly referred to as a hydrogen bomb explosion, which releases huge energy in an instant.
Therefore, every country that has the ability to study nuclear fusion in Bluestar is looking for ways to control the nuclear fusion reaction. This is the origin of the concept of controlled nuclear fusion and cold nuclear fusion.
With the system in hand, it is not difficult for Chen Xin to achieve controllable nuclear fusion and cold nuclear fusion. Even if he is willing to toss, he can also obtain sci-fi power sources such as gn solar furnace and antimatter reactor.
However, what Chen Xin wanted was of course not the kind of black and insignificant things, but products that could be copied and promoted.
Therefore, he does not intend to get things that are too dark technology, even cold nuclear fusion, only intends to build a controllable thermonuclear fusion reactor.
For this thermonuclear fusion reactor, Chen Xin envisioned not adding fuel to the reactor by injecting fuel from the outside, but installing a fission reactor under the fusion reactor to directly bombard the target with the fission reactor To produce tritium, which is used as fuel for the fusion reactor.
This is why Chen Xinhui needs nuclear materials. Otherwise, even if he can make the furnace, it will not burn without fuel.
As for why we use weapon-grade enriched uranium instead of fuel-grade enriched uranium, it is because according to Chen Xin's vision, he needs to use high-purity nuclear materials as fuel.
"Seriously, looking at so many nuclear materials piled in front of you, I really feel a little scalp." In the warehouse where nuclear materials are temporarily stored, Chen Xin looked at the box in front of him for storing nuclear materials and the huge nuclear material on the box. The radiation sign does have a tingling feeling on the back.
"Weapon-grade enriched uranium with a purity of more than 90%, if this thing is shed, I am afraid that it will not kill a lot of people." As the commander of the special forces, he has performed many dangerous missions, and he can naturally understand how dangerous this thing is. , How many people will take risks for it and spare their lives.
"So I will bother you to take good care of it. Before I build the reactor, these things must be one gram." Chen Xin looked at the commander, his expression turned serious: "These nuclear materials will be temporarily stored in Here, I will continue to work in the city. After the work here is completed, these nuclear materials will return to my own refuge with me, where I will complete the manufacturing and charging of the nuclear fusion reactor, and then conduct a test run. , You will be responsible for the defense task of this whole process."
Chen Xin's words made the commander of the special forces look horrified. Although he had been greeted by his superiors before the mission started, he was also mentally prepared. UU read www.uukanshu.com but Chen Xin said this Asking him to guard these important and dangerous nuclear materials still caused the commander to breathe sharply.
But his sense of mission and responsibility as a soldier made him almost instinctively answer to Chen Xin: "Guaranteed to complete the task!"
"This can be regarded as the extra trouble I have brought to you. Originally, you only used to protect my safety, but now you are also responsible for the safety of these nuclear materials." Chen Xin also knows that this is adding trouble to others, but These troubles are inevitable.
After all, it is weapon-grade nuclear material, and the country cannot just hand it over to Chen Xin. If it weren't for special forces to protect him, I am afraid that the country would not easily hand over weapon-grade nuclear material to him.
So this special force has been shouldering the task of protecting nuclear materials and the safety of the fusion reactor that Chen Xin will build next.
Fortunately, under the current environment, protecting Chen Xin and the safety of these nuclear materials is not too troublesome. As long as the barracks are guarded to ensure that these nuclear materials do not escape, there will be no problem.
After all, there are no forces on the land of Yan Nation that can break the barracks guarded by an elite special force, and they can still run away from the barracks.
"The existence of this batch of nuclear materials should be blocked as much as possible. The less people know the better, you are up to you." Chen Xin didn't know what to do, but he still asked the commander according to his own impression. Meet their own requirements.
The commander also nodded to this, and replied affirmatively: "It is true that the less people know about this kind of thing, the better. Later I will explain to the soldiers in charge of defending and keep them secret."
