China has recently achieved a major breakthrough in the field of deep-sea observation. A series of domestically developed marine biogeochemical in-situ sensors, led by the team of Wu Guojun at the Xi'an Institute of Optics and Precision Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, have successfully completed multi-platform and multi-scenario deep-sea application verification.

This is for use in various gliders and floating devices.

Coal gasification efforts continue to expand for energy security purposes.

While the mainstream practice is to produce olefins from oil, using coal can bring significant cost savings and might help to reduce the country’s reliance on imported fuel at a time when Donald Trump is seeking to expand US control over the world’s oil supplies.

In recent years, Beijing has approved a total of 36 projects – 20 of which are already operating – with a total annual capacity exceeding 24 million tonnes in coal-rich areas such as Shaanxi and Inner Mongolia, China Science Daily reported. The process will remain profitable so long as the oil price stays above US$35 a barrel, according to calculations by industry blogger PTGChemical. The blog said that producing materials from coal cost around 6,300 yuan (US$900) per tonne – about 1,500 yuan less than using oil.
