Abstract :

We are facing the problem of possible future running out of oil parallel with increase of energy consumption in connection with the expected population growth to 8-10 billion people to the year of 2050. At the moment, we are emitting twice the amount of CO2 that atmosphere can integrate. For solving this issue, alternate energy sources are solar, wind, but also high-Tc superconductivity at hand. For instance, the electricity generation by Photovoltaics (PV) is needed to highly expand over the present scale of Gigawatts. In connection with this goal, development of energy storage and transportation technologies will be necessary. Together with solving the energy production and transport issues, development of new materials and innovative technologies saving energy consumption is crucial. In this talk, recent trends in high-Tc superconducting material processing will be introduced and then the new super-magnet applications will be presented. The bulk superconducting magnets can trap magnetic fields by order of magnitude higher than the best classical hard magnets and are therefore promising as permanent magnets for use in Magnetic Drug Delivery System (MDDS), for construction of small mobile diagnostic devices, for water cleaning technologies, etc. Human�s body is so complicated that a controlled drug delivery is extremely difficult. This process can be accomplished by magnetic force in the body by exerting a strong magnetic field on the diseased tissue. As a result, a high drug concentration can be delivered in a controlled way to the targeted diseased organ. Superconducting material is also used in superconducting DC cables, promising in particular in transport of solar energy as well as in feeding cables for railway system applications. In this presentation, I will summarize the recent development in use of bulk superconducting materials in superconducting magnets and of superconducting cables in various industrial applications.
