From the perspective of a drop of oil, it shows the core achievements of the entire petrochemical industry chain and new energy sources such as hydrogen energy and geothermal energy. On July 10th, the first interesting science popularization exhibition in the field of energy and chemical industry in my country - "The Wonderful Journey of a Drop of Oil" interactive science popularization exhibition opened at the China Science and Technology Museum. The exhibition will be from July 12th to October 11th. It is exhibited in the museum's short-term exhibition hall, and the public needs to make an appointment in advance to visit for free.

The exhibition hall is divided into three units, namely "Going Underground", "The Power of Oil" and "Revealing the Future", with exhibitions along the display lines. By displaying multiple core samples mined from deep depths, the audience can intuitively understand the difficulty of extracting oil and gas resources. From dolomite with visible pores to the naked eye to dense shale and breccia, the space available for oil and gas storage in these rock formations is only a few millimeters at most and can reach nanometers at the smallest. It requires scanning with an electron microscope to see the oil storage holes. .

Sit on the drilling console and push the joystick to assemble various parts into a drilling platform to start deep exploration; in the underground "exploration" snake-eating interactive game, you use the joystick to control the drill bit and search for oil in the maze; virtual reality The space-time shuttle built with advanced technology will lead the audience to follow the "Deep Earth No. 1" project deep into the "Underground Mount Everest", and finally reach the depth of the rock formation 12,376 meters underground... The exhibition combines artificial intelligence technology, audio-visual means and interactive experience devices, from From raw materials to finished products, from the deep earth to space, from daily necessities, food, housing and transportation to high-precision technology, the knowledge and scientific and technological achievements of the energy and chemical industry are displayed from multiple angles and in an all-round way.

In addition to traditional oil and gas resources, the exhibition hall also introduces future clean energy sources such as solar energy, wind energy, and biomass energy in detail. In addition to making full use of solar energy, photovoltaic power stations can also be combined with agriculture, fishery, desert sand control, etc. to develop comprehensive ecological industries. The combination of "green electricity" and "green hydrogen" will be the future development trend of the hydrogen energy industry. In addition, the exhibition has also planned various educational activities, and will regularly invite industry experts to conduct popular science reports, small scientific experiment demonstrations, etc.

This exhibition’s Metaverse science popularization applet “Journey to the Zero-Carbon Planet” was also launched simultaneously. Through digital twin technology, the offline exhibition hall and the online space are mapped, extending the scope of the physical exhibition. Virtual space. The public can register an exclusive Metaverse digital identity, become a "super researcher", and embark on a journey of energy exploration with the planet's indigenous people, the "Little Stones".

This exhibition is co-sponsored by China Science and Technology Museum and Sinopec. It aims to popularize energy science knowledge to the public, spread the concept of green development, and let more people understand the role of the petrochemical industry in ensuring national energy security and meeting people's needs for a better life. important role.
