Hong Kong: Refining waste cooking oil into biodiesel

  As an international food capital, Hong Kong is full of restaurants, attracting many diners from all over the world. In this era of worrying food safety, Hong Kong has already issued regulations on the management of waste oil and food waste in restaurants, and has kept the kitchen waste at all levels from the source to the end to prevent the waste oil from flowing back to the table, so that diners can have peace of mind.

    Filtration and separation of food residues to build a grease trap

  If we carefully observe the parking lots or underground floors of many Hong Kong buildings, people will find that there will be a square stainless steel tank with a size of about 10 cubic meters in the corner, which is connected with pipes leading to a certain part of the building. This stainless steel tank is a common grease trap in many restaurants and industrial buildings in Hong Kong. "It is necessary to build a grease trap, otherwise it is impossible to get a food license." There was such a law in Hong Kong decades ago, which is also a way for many restaurants in Hong Kong to dispose of kitchen waste.

  There are many fried and roasted dishes in Cantonese cuisine, which produce a lot of oil every day. After cooking, the oil needs to be replaced every day. The restaurant simply filters it and pours it into the oil drum, waiting for the recycling company to come to the door for recycling. According to Hong Kong’s Water Pollution Control Ordinance, the grease in food residue should be filtered and collected by oil separator.

  The Environmental Protection Department of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region explained that the direct discharge of food residues into sewage pipes would lead to the accumulation of oil dirt, and the drainage pipes would be blocked and stink, which would affect the environmental sanitation of restaurants and the surrounding areas. Therefore, restaurants in Hong Kong need to establish a grease trap to filter sewage again and collect grease. The collected waste oil is recycled by a special recycling company, and the Environmental Protection Department of the Hong Kong SAR Government also records and checks the relevant treatment of restaurants to prevent the possibility of waste oil flowing back to the dining table. According to the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, from the results of earlier spot checks, there was no use of waste oil in restaurants in Hong Kong.

  Production of diesel oil by recycling food waste oil

  So, where will these separated and recycled waste oils go? In Hong Kong, waste oil is regarded as a commodity sold by restaurants to recycling companies, so recycling companies need to pay restaurants, and waste oil has been professionally treated.

  In a free market like Hong Kong, recyclers will certainly not do business at a loss. The waste oil produced in restaurants brings business opportunities to recyclers. Biodiesel which can be used as automobile fuel can be produced by treating, reacting and separating the waste oil. As a new fuel with environmental benefits, biodiesel can help reduce carbon dioxide emissions, and it is now being widely promoted in western countries.

  In order to encourage the use of biodiesel, the Hong Kong SAR Government has introduced a tax-free preferential policy for automobile biodiesel to further promote the recycling of food waste oil. At present, there are three biodiesel producers in Hong Kong, which regularly collect waste oil from restaurants, properly collect it and transport it to factories for processing to generate biodiesel.

  From the filtration and separation of food residues to the recovery and treatment of waste oil, the Hong Kong SAR Government monitors the flow of waste oil at the source, encourages recycling at the end, and promotes the application of new fuels. In this way, waste oil can’t be quietly sold underground, but as a commodity to continue its use value. (Cao Haiyang Intern Ji Menghui)

Defeating Wu Jing, Deng Chao, and Shen Teng, Yu Qian won the best male lead with "Teacher Good"


1905 movie network news  On the evening of December 22, the 11th "Macao International Film Festival" held an awards ceremony, and the film won the Golden Lotus Award for Best Actor in one fell swoop.

Continue to lose money! Cyrus’s pre-loss in the first half of the year exceeded 1.25 billion yuan

Continue to lose money! Cyrus's pre-loss in the first half of the year exceeded 1.25 billion yuan

On July 14, Sailis released a pre-loss announcement for the first half of the year. According to the announcement, the official expects that the net profit attributable to the owner of the parent company in the first half of this year will be – 1.39 billion yuan to – 1.25 billion yuan, and the net profit attributable to the owner of the parent company after deducting non-operating gains and losses is expected to be – 1.93 billion yuan to – 1.80 billion yuan.

Regarding the reasons for the pre-loss of this period’s performance, the official pointed out that due to the promotion of the Quarter 1 automobile industry, users’ expectations that the M5 smart driving version will be released in the second quarter have a certain impact on the sales of existing models, so the company’s sales in the first half of the year did not meet expectations. At the same time, it also pointed out that high R & D investment in the core technology field of new energy vehicles has been maintained, and R & D and technical personnel have been continuously introduced, and R & D expenses have increased compared with the same period of the previous year. Regarding the follow-up development, the official said that with the launch of the M5 smart driving version and other new models, as well as the increase in overseas sales, the sales volume and profitability in the second

Continue to lose money! Cyrus's pre-loss in the first half of the year exceeded 1.25 billion yuan

In fact, it is not surprising that Cyrus released the estimated loss in the first half of the year. Since Cyrus cooperated with Huawei, its losses have been increasing. According to the financial report data: Cyrus lost more than 10 billion yuan in the four years from 2019 to 2022, of which the non-net profit in 2019 was – 884 million yuan, in 2020 – 2.308 billion yuan, in 2021 – 2.793 billion yuan, and in 2022 – 4.296 billion yuan.

Continue to lose money! Cyrus's pre-loss in the first half of the year exceeded 1.25 billion yuan

According to the data, the predecessor of Cyrus Group was Chongqing Xiaokang Industrial Group Joint Stock Company, which was established in September 1986. In April 2021, Xiaokang shares reached a cooperative relationship with Huawei. The two sides signed a memorandum of cooperation in the field of new energy vehicles and launched the first cooperative model Cyrus Huawei Smart Choice SF5. The new car was sold online on Huawei’s official website simultaneously, and entered Huawei stores and flagship stores at the same time. The price range is 21.68-24 6,800 yuan. Although both sides have given great resources to support the first model, Huawei Smart Choice SF5 sales are not ideal. In 2021, the annual sales volume of Cyrus SF5 was only 8,169 units.

In order to turn around sales, Xiaokang and Huawei cooperated again to launch the new energy brand AITO Wenjie. In 2022, three models of Wenjie/M5 EV and Wenjie M7 were launched one after another. With the launch of a number of models, the sales volume of Wenjie in 2022 has been rapidly improved, and the cumulative delivery volume for the whole year has reached 75,000. According to the official sales data, the cumulative production and sales volume of new energy vehicles of Cyrus in 2022 reached 139,132 and 135,054 respectively, an increase of 233.64% and 225.9% year-on-year respectively. Among them, the cumulative production and sales volume of Cyrus cars reached 83,701 and 80,041, an increase of 660.37% and 626.39% year-on-year. The world accounted for more than half of the sales volume of Cyrus in 2022.

After entering 2023, although Huawei and Cyrus are emphasizing that the cooperation between the two sides will be further deepened, the sales of the Q & A brand have been cold in the market. Of course, the decline in sales has something to do with Tesla’s announcement of a big price reduction at the beginning of the year. Although Q & A also followed up with the price reduction after Tesla announced the big price reduction. The maximum reduction of its three models was 30,000 yuan, but the price reduction did not stimulate sales growth. Relevant data show that the retail sales of AITO Q & A in the first half of 2023 were 23,246 vehicles.

Continue to lose money! Cyrus's pre-loss in the first half of the year exceeded 1.25 billion yuan

In addition, after Ren Zhengfei signed the "Resolution on Huawei Not Building Cars" in March, it was a blow to Cyrus, which has always endorsed the Huawei brand. Or realized the crisis, on March 30, Cyrus launched its new brand "Blue Electricity" and launched its first model, priced 139,900 yuan – 151,900 yuan. It is understood that the Blue Electricity E5 uses BYD Freddie battery hybrid technology and Huawei’s smart car technology. After the launch, the sales of the Blue Electricity E5 were also unsatisfactory. Relevant data show that the sales of the Blue Electricity E5 were 250, 483 and 376 vehicles in the three months after the launch.

Continue to lose money! Cyrus's pre-loss in the first half of the year exceeded 1.25 billion yuan

It is not difficult to see that the price war among automakers at the beginning of the year and Huawei’s reaffirmation that it will not build cars have had a certain impact on Sailis Automobile. After all, without Huawei’s halo, Sailis’ true appeal in the market is still very limited. Therefore, for the cooperation with Huawei, Sailis still actively cooperates. Sailis said that at the end of June, the company has established an "AITO Inquiry and Sales Service Joint Working Group" with Huawei to be responsible for the end-to-end closed-loop management of marketing, sales, delivery, service, channels and other businesses. This is also another milestone event for the two sides to promote deepening cooperation. In the future, with a firm new energy strategy, continuous R & D investment and the support of partners, it will continue to drive towards a new fast lane for new energy vehicles.

BYD Qin L DM-i made its world debut at the Beijing Auto Show, or sold for 120,000 yuan.

  Source: IT house?

  Today, Qin L DM-i, a brand-new mid-level car of BYD Dynasty, made its world debut in auto china in 2024. The car adopts a brand-new interior and exterior design language and is equipped with a fifth-generation DM-i hybrid system. The vehicle positioning is higher than that of Qin PLUS DM-i currently on sale, and the starting price may be more than 120,000 yuan.

  According to IT House, the length, width and height of Qin L are 4830mm/1900mm/1495mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2790mm, so Qin L is positioned as a mid-level car. In the car matrix of the current dynasty, the Qin family is a compact pin crown, the Han family is a medium and large pin crown, and the Qin L sword refers to the intermediate level, which just fills the gap between the two cars.

  Qin L adopts "the aesthetics of the new country’s dragon face", "the front face of the dragon rhyme" is majestic, the side is slender and elegant, and the tail is designed with ultra-wide back shoulders, which makes the whole car show a "wide body and low body" posture, domineering and dynamic.

  Qin l’s interior is inspired by Chinese painting, creating a "landscape painting cockpit" with high style. The integrated center console slowly unfolds around the rotating big screen, like a long scroll of the East floating on the instrument panel of the sapphire case, creating a strong sense of encirclement. Ergonomically comfortable seats and front McPherson rear multi-link independent suspension are adopted.

  Prior to this, Qin L will have a major breakthrough in fuel consumption and endurance. Although the official did not "hammer" at this auto show, it said that Qin L will subvert the stereotype of "fuel consumption" of mid-level cars, lead the breakthrough through technology, and make "big and economical" a new trend of mid-level cars.

  Qin L is based on BYD’s new generation of plug-in hybrid vehicle platform, which integrates a number of forward-looking technologies and is specially designed for plug-in.

  Qin L is equipped with DiLink intelligent cockpit, equipped with 15.6-inch adaptive rotating suspended Pad, car ETC, NFC digital key, full scene intelligent voice and other configurations. DiPilot intelligent driving assistance system includes adaptive cruise, intelligent navigation, emergency lane keeping assistance, blind spot monitoring and other functions.

  It is reported that Qin L will be listed in the second quarter of this year, with an estimated starting price of 120,000 yuan.

How is the construction progress of the pilot area of vehicle networking?

  Since the beginning of this year, the society’s attention to the Internet of Vehicles has been continuously improved, and the construction of national-level car networking pilot areas has continued to accelerate. At present, seven places have been approved to create a national-level car networking pilot area. What is the construction situation of the pilot area? What other aspects should be exerted by combining local advantages with development planning?

  Give full play to the advantages of geographic information

  Recently, the 2023 National Intelligent Driving Test Competition (Yangtze River Delta Division) started in Zhejiang Deqing Intelligent Networked Automobile Test Site. As an important supporting activity of the 2023 World Intelligent Networked Automobile Congress, this event includes a number of special events, including autonomous driving, production cars, car networking safety, etc., with a total of 16 test items, which attracted many brand car companies to compete in the same field.

  Why did this national event land in the small town of Deqing? As the first national-level vehicle networking pilot zone in China, Deqing relies on the advantages of geographic information industry agglomeration to constantly break through industrial boundaries and promote the cross-border integration and development of geographic information and vehicle networking industries. It is reported that Deqing Intelligent Networked Vehicle Test Site, covering an area of 172 mu, is the only public test site in Zhejiang Province that meets both bicycle intelligence and intelligent network testing. Since the completion of the test site, 28 autopilot test licenses have been issued to 20 enterprises. In addition, Deqing also completed the intelligent transformation of 181.6 kilometers of multi-road scenes, and the 949.3 kilometers of roads in the whole region were open for testing.

  Deqing is the highland of global geographic information industry gathering and the source of innovation, with the support of spatio-temporal information and the exploration of vehicle-Lu Yun integration technology at the forefront. "The technology of intelligent networked vehicles is constantly developing, and it is highly dependent on safe and reliable basic geographic information data. Deqing has taken precautions and laid a solid foundation for the development of intelligent networked vehicles industry." Zhu Xichan, a professor at Tongji University Automotive College, believes.

  Since the beginning of this year, Deqing has introduced 26 geographic information industry chain extension projects, 6 intelligent networked auto parts projects with a price of over 300 million yuan, and 7 completed projects. 32 leading enterprises, such as Founder Electric and Mache Technology, have settled in Deqing, and the upstream and downstream industries, such as geographic information, testing and verification, and unmanned low-speed vehicle production, have been gradually improved.

  Chihiro Location Company, which settled in Deqing, is the construction and operator of the national Beidou foundation reinforcement system. In April this year, Chihiro released the "Full Link Map of Beidou Spatio-temporal Intelligence Basic Capability", which marked that all the key links of Beidou Spatio-temporal Intelligence application were opened. At present, 23 mass-produced cars, such as SAIC, Tucki and Ideality, are equipped with Chihiro’s location and time-space intelligent service, with a cumulative service time of over 200 million hours.

  "The centimeter-level high-precision positioning technology was originally only used in the niche and professional surveying and mapping fields. Entering the field of car networking is not a simple transplant and copying, but a revolutionary transformation." Nian Jinfei, general manager of Chihiro Location Intelligent Driving Division, believes that the bottleneck of intelligent driving comes from collaborative infrastructure construction. In the next step, the enterprise will strengthen cooperation with Deqing and accelerate the implementation of the collaborative development of Beidou Road.

  Geographic information and global opening are the two major advantages of Deqing’s car networking industry development. "It is necessary to give full play to the first-Mover advantage of the geographic information industry, and continue to explore from the aspects of intelligent infrastructure optimization and upgrading, cloud control platform construction, and application scenario deepening, and form more experiences and practices that can be replicated and promoted." Tang Xianguo, director of the Dixin Development Center of Moganshan High-tech Zone in Huzhou, said. (Reporter Liu Wen)

  Expand more application scenarios

  Recently, a new energy commercial heavy truck model of Shiqiao Intelligent Technology (Tianjin) Co., Ltd. is being tested in the closed test field of Tianjin (Xiqing) national vehicle networking pilot area, and at the same time, there are more than 10 brands of new energy vehicles waiting for testing.

  "This year, facilities such as straight roads that meet European standards will be built at the testing site to meet the export testing needs of independent automobile brands in China. At present, some new energy vehicles have passed more than 200 test items such as automatic emergency braking and lane departure, and are eligible for listing. This year, a new power station was added to meet the charging and replacing test requirements of new models. " Han Bing, senior manager of the cockpit networking department of Shiqiao Intelligent Technology (Tianjin) Co., Ltd. said.

  Tianjin (Xiqing) National Vehicle Networking Pilot Zone was established at the end of 2019, and a three-level test service system of 14.5 million km virtual test site, 1,475 mu closed test site and 24.5 km open test road was built, forming a complete closed loop of intelligent networked vehicle R&D and testing. "Tianjin (Xiqing) National Vehicle Networking Pilot Area has completed the intelligent upgrade of 408 intersections in Xiqing, realizing holographic perception of road traffic information, real-time data processing and multi-point service." Jiang Hongyi, a staff member of Tianjin (Xiqing) National Vehicle Networking Pilot Zone, said. As one of the national-level vehicle networking pilot areas in northern China, Tianjin (Xiqing) vehicle networking pilot area has accumulated experience in infrastructure renovation, digital platform construction and application scenarios, and further helped the rapid evolution of vehicle-road coordination to vehicle-city coordination.

  Zhang Yanan, chief expert of China Automotive Technology and Research Center Co., Ltd., believes that the Internet of Vehicles is a complete closed loop formed by vehicles, roads, infrastructure and software algorithms. The integration of intelligent transportation into life will bring about industrial changes in more fields such as automobiles.

  Xie Hui, director of the Unmanned Intersection Research Center of Tianjin University, said that not long ago, 48 enterprises including the Unmanned Intersection Research Center of Tianjin University, Zhongqi Zhilian Technology Co., Ltd. and Tianjin Huancheng City Infrastructure Investment Co., Ltd. displayed 24 intelligent networking facilities in Xiqing District, such as unmanned patrol guide cars, unmanned delivery cars and solar photovoltaic panels to charge unmanned vehicles, and planned to use more abundant vehicle networking application scenarios in time walk for one year.

  In Tianjin (Xiqing), there are still many test and application scenarios of intelligent driving to create a national-level car networking pilot zone. JD.COM unmanned logistics delivery vehicle in Zhangjiawo Town, Xiqing District has been in normal operation for 2 years. Gu Yunbiao, deputy director of Tianjin Bureau of Industry and Information Technology, said that by the end of 2023, the key roads in Xiqing District will strive to realize the open road of vehicle networking. By the end of 2024, Tianjin will strive to achieve 1000 kilometers of open roads, and take Xiqing District as the leader and the construction of the pilot area as the traction to accelerate the development of car networking.

How is dry eye syndrome?

Dry eye refers to a tear secretion disorder caused by many factors, with dry eyes as the main symptom. Dry eye sometimes the eyes are too dry and the basic tears are insufficient, but it stimulates the secretion of reflective tears, resulting in frequent tears.

Main symptoms: dry eyes, easy fatigue, itchy eyes, foreign body sensation, burning pain, sticky secretions, fear of wind, photophobia and sensitivity to external stimuli.

How is visual fatigue?

Visual fatigue is not an independent disease, but a group of fatigue syndrome caused by various reasons. Visual fatigue is mainly caused by the decrease of blinking times when people concentrate on watching the screens of electronic products such as TV, computer or mobile phone, resulting in a corresponding decrease in tears secretion, and at the same time, the flashing screen strongly stimulates the eyes, which will cause and aggravate various eye diseases.

The main symptoms: eye fatigue, dry eyes, foreign body sensation, heavy eyelids, blurred vision, photophobia and tears, eye swelling and pain, eye congestion, headache, dizziness, nausea, listlessness, inattention, memory loss, loss of appetite and other systemic symptoms. A few patients may have diplopia, stereoscopic vision dysfunction, elevated intraocular pressure, corneal damage, etc., and teenagers may also have myopia or deepen myopia.

How is pseudomyopia?

Pseudomyopia is caused by the continuous contraction and spasm of ciliary muscle and the increase of lens thickness, which leads to blurred vision. If pseudomyopia is not relieved in time, it will lead to the enlargement of axial length and become true myopia.

Can you avoid dry eye symptoms by closing your eyes?

Close your eyes and rest can protect your eyes, but it can’t prevent dry eye. The most effective way to prevent dry eye is to blink effectively. Blink, that is, what we usually call blink.

Can staring at green alleviate visual fatigue?

Green is the most favorable color for the eyes, but just looking at green can’t relieve visual fatigue. The most effective way to relieve visual fatigue is to let your eyes look far away and have a proper rest.

Can anti-blue glasses and anti-blue mobile phone film effectively protect eyes?

It is not recommended to protect your eyes through anti-blue glasses and anti-blue mobile phone film. What is really harmful to the eyes is: short-wave blue light with a wavelength of 400~450.

How to prevent visual fatigue?

● Pay attention to the distance of using electronic products.

● Pay attention to the time of using electronic products and follow the "20-20-20" rule.

● Pay attention to adjusting the brightness of electronic products.

● Strengthen outdoor activities and get full exposure to the sun.

● Maintain hand hygiene and prevent eye infection.

● Strengthen nutrition.

On August 15th, Wei Wenbin, vice president of Beijing Tongren Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, and Li Ying, chief ophthalmologist of Peking Union Medical College Hospital were invited to keep you away from "digital fatigue". Please watch.

"In the field of construction machinery, this unmanned loading robot can quickly adapt to different models, and can automatically perform actions such as moving, accelerating and decelerating, shoveling and unloading. The full bucket rate of shoveling operation is over 95%, and the residual rate of unloading hopper is below 5%. The shoveling efficiency is close to that of the master." In the exhibition area of artificial intelligence, the staff mentioned that this unmanned robot was jointly developed by Netease Fuxi and China Construction Eighth Bureau. It is a highly intelligent and fully automated main construction machinery based on the scene of mixing station.

"The concrete mixing station is the basic supply of the construction site, and it needs 24 hours of uninterrupted operation, and a lot of dust and particles will be generated during the operation. Therefore, mixing stations often face the problem of difficulty in recruiting workers. " The staff said that taking the mixing station with two machines and 180 units as an example, the standard configuration is 2 loaders +4 drivers. However, after the replacement of the unmanned loader, only one driver is needed to handle 1% of the special conditions at the scene, and in other 99% cases, the unmanned automatic feeding operation can be realized.

At present, the unmanned loading robot has been applied to the intelligent concrete mixing station of Hutong Railway, and batch delivery will be realized this year, so that construction workers can bid farewell to the dangerous working environment and achieve high safety and high quality work.
