ONHP Translation Contest
On the eve of International Translation Day ONHP traditionally announces the Translation Contest for the best translation of a technical text.
We invite representatives of partner companies, university and school students, everyone, who speaks and loves English language to participate in our contest.
Nowadays more and more companies show social and ecological responsibility, developing towards green technologies. In order to reduce harmful emissions into the environment, companies are changing their technologies to advanced manufacturing model using new environmentally friendly materials and intelligent systems. For many years, ONHP has been a top company in “green” technologies establishment. This year ONHP brings to your attention a text entitled “Top 10 Green Technologies that give us hope for a sustainable future”.
Contest entries are accepted from September 22 to October 31, 2021 by email to conference@onhp.ru with the subject line "Translation Contest 2021".

TOP 10 GREEN TECHNOLOGIES THAT GIVE US HOPE FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE
Biomimicry has given the rise to self-healing materials. The self-healing materials will have the capability to “heal” themselves when cut, torn or cracked. This in turn will give longer lives to most consumer goods, and thereby reducing the demand for raw materials and waste.
Carbon capture, or the process of storing carbon underground, has immediate appeal. However there have always been uncertainties associated with this process including risks associated with storage and leaks. However, two new molecules have been identified that will help to make carbon capture more safe, efficient and cost-effective. ZIFs and amines are two special cage-like molecules that have been shown to work particularly well under real world conditions, and processes have also been put in place that will allow for fast reproduction of these molecules.
Smart grids and smart meters will allow us to use our scarce resources like electricity and water more efficiently. Smart meters for electricity, will allow to use our appliances more efficiently, while also reducing our energy bills. So for instance, they will allow us to program our washing machines to run only during off-peak energy demand hours. Similarly, smart grids for water can help utilities save water by reducing leakages etc. As such, these devices have huge potential in smoothing out demand and ensuring more efficient supply and thus allowing us to obtain more utility from existing resources.
