Super Island Tycoon-Chapter 297: Smog Removal Concept!

There are also methods using drones carrying catalysts to fly to high altitudes and spray catalysts to disperse smog, but this method has significant limitations and cannot completely cure the smog issue. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Overall, the current methods to cure smog are more about addressing the symptoms rather than the root cause. Although the country has invested a lot of research in this area, there has yet to be any breakthrough progress.

But now.

Jiang Cheng actually said he has a way to solve the smog problem, which made Major General Xiang Dong excited.

Naturally, he believes Jiang Cheng’s words. Since Jiang Cheng said he has a solution, there definitely is a solution! And it won’t be like those researchers funded by the state, who come up with methods that only temporarily alleviate the smog rather than solve it fundamentally!

Major General Xiang Dong’s eyes sparkled, and upon seeing this, Jiang Cheng couldn’t help but laugh, "Shaojiang, you’re overthinking it. If I say I can solve the smog problem, then I can certainly solve it. Looking at the unrelenting haziness of the capital’s sky, I also feel uneasy.

That’s wonderful, Brother Jiang Cheng. Whatever you need, the country will help you accomplish it!" Major General Xiang Dong might have been extremely excited because he even said such words.

And no wonder he was excited at this moment.

Smog, the pain of the nation, although this problem only appeared in the north, it’s a scar that remains deeply in the heart of the government.

Severe air pollution can severely impact the production and living conditions of people in the polluted areas, such as highway closures, flight cancellations, disrupted commutes, and increased traffic accidents.

The longer the smog isn’t resolved, the more the government’s authority seems to be constantly challenged.

At this moment, Major General Xiang Dong was extremely excited because if the smog issue could truly be resolved, not only would this lingering concern of the national leader be thoroughly addressed, but the entire nation would also place more trust in the government. Residents wouldn’t have to complain about the smoggy weather daily, and the potential changes are countless!

"For now, there is nothing I need, but I hope the nation can remember what I have done." Jiang Cheng withdrew his gaze from the window and said lightly.

In fact, the higher-ups have already agreed to support him in acquiring various tech manufacturers nationwide. He doesn’t need the authorities to do anything for him at the moment; he knows solving the smog issue is immensely important for the country, and he can receive significant rewards, but he doesn’t need them right now.

Looking at the gray, hazy sky, Jiang Cheng couldn’t explain why he always felt a bit uneasy, a feeling that was hard to articulate and unclear.

In summary, seeing the severe smog problem in the capital, he always wanted to do something. Although the smog issue is an extremely challenging problem for the country, for him, it might just be like any other.

Alright, the nation will surely deeply remember your kindness and definitely reward you accordingly. It’s just a matter of how long it will take

to come up with a solution." Major General Xiang Dong was still very excited, his face flushed as he asked Jiang Cheng.

If the smog problem could be resolved quickly, that would be ideal. Major General Xiang Dong knew how tricky the smog problem was, and even for Jiang Cheng, it might not be easy to quickly come up with a solution.

The question was, how long would it take for Jiang Cheng to solve this issue?

Three months, six months, or perhaps a year?

The sooner the smog is thoroughly cured, the better!

If the smog problem could be solved within half a year, Major General Xiang Dong didn’t know how happy he would be then. If the smog issue could be resolved sooner, he could also live with peace of mind!

For Jiang Cheng, he didn’t know how grateful he would be!

Send me to Huaqing University’s School of Life Sciences tomorrow. I’ve figured out a way, and in a few days, I should be able to hand over the results to the state." Jiang Cheng smiled lightly and said.

Today he was indeed a bit tired. After going back to think about the specific method, he could basically start the research formally tomorrow.

The clinical trials for the Genetic Evolution Potion also needed two more days. By then, he should have made significant progress on the research related to solving the smog problem.

Alright, tomorrow I will have someone take you to Huaqing for research and also notify Principal Wu." Major General Xiang Dong responded with a smile, at this time, whatever request Jiang Cheng made, he would accept if possible, not to mention merely providing a place for Jiang Cheng to conduct his research.

The car was driving fast, and soon enough, they arrived at the hotel where Jiang Cheng was staying.

Jiang Cheng walked into the elevator, inserted the room card, walked into the presidential suite, lay on the bed, and began to ponder how to cure the smog completely.

Catalyst?

He opened the transparent phone and searched for articles related to smog, discovering that catalysts had been tried domestically, but they could only temporarily alleviate symptoms without curing the root cause. The smog-affected areas were too vast, and catalysts were one-time use, making it impossible to cure smog completely.

Although Jiang Cheng could come up with catalysts far superior to those existing in the world, he didn’t want to trouble the country too much. Treating smog with catalysts required too much manpower and resources. Since there must be a better way, he decided to consider other methods.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Cheng finally came up with an idea.

That idea was to use microbes to remediate the smog.

Using microbes to remediate smog.

In this world, no country or scientist had ever thought of it.

It was not that these scientists or researchers didn’t have enough intelligence, but because the technological level of this world had not yet reached the point where they could develop microbes to remediate smog.

It’s known that the main components of smog are sulfur dioxide and urban toxic particles. In this world, there’s no microbial method for solving smog. To use a microbial method to remove sulfur dioxide requires preparation in a lab, and since smog is distributed in the air, how could it be removed using microbes?

However, for Jiang Cheng, this was not a difficult task.

He had not only engaged with silicon-based life forms but had also studied sulfur-based, amino-based life forms, etc. His biological research is intergalactically renowned. Developing just a simple bacterium capable of absorbing sulfur dioxide and solving urban toxic particle issues could possibly be done in a few days by him.

Moreover, the bacteria he envisions must be capable of self-replication in large quantities, floating in the air to purify it; otherwise, in Jiang Cheng’s view, his research would ultimately be a failure.

While conceptualizing the culturing methodology for these microbes, Jiang Cheng unwittingly fell asleep.

At eight o’clock the next morning, Major General Xiang Dong didn’t come personally but sent his driver to pick Jiang Cheng up and take him to Huaqing University.
