2014年CRI 中国300米饱和潜水作业成功 银川直飞哈萨克斯坦国际货运包机开通

 

China succeeded in its first 300-meter saturation¹ dive on Sunday morning

as three divers² returned safe and sound from deep water to the living chamber³ on their ship.

The diving bell actually reached a depth of 313.5 meters under the South China Sea, according to Guo Jie, on-site chief director of the experiment.

He says saturation diving technology enables human beings to withstand high water pressure by saturating⁴ human tissue with inert⁵ gas.

China is now working to develop saturation diving technology that would work at a depth of 500 meters under the sea.

A cargo⁶ charter flight linking northwest China with Kazakhstan has been opened

with hopes that it can boost development of the Silk Road economic belt spanning the Eurasia continent.

The annual international cargo handling capacity of Hedong International Airport in Yinchuan, capital city of Ningxia Hui Autonomous⁷ Region, will be raised to 4,000 tonnes from the current 200 tonnes.
