An ecological & energized module (EEM) living underlying and fundamental system, which can be typically laid on roofs and almost all the non-roof places and public areas, such as freeways, roads, streets, avenues, pedestrian zones, sidewalks, plazas, courtyards, and corridors. A typical easy-to-make standardized 3D EEM module contains 4 layers: 1) Top layer of transparent anti-slip security glass or a specialized pavement polymer (which had been proved in Solar Roadways and other technologies); 2) greenery layer of short flowers/lawn; 3) supporting layer of discrete blocks/columns or honeycomb structure, and 4) multifunctional substrate layer. The greenery layer is often the flourishing seasonal flowers and plants, which are usually genetically modified, dwarfed and grafted to have some special functions for health factors and other added advantages. With the applicable parameter specifications of the module, the carrying capacity, the combination of the pavement, installation, and connection methods in the process of pavement and construction are suited and matched. The encoded and sensor-equipped EEM fundamental system with further optical processing has many great powers and awesome & mind-blowing functional characteristics in almost all infrastructures, civil engineering, and transportation systems, etc.
Take the aviation infrastructure system as an example, the encoded and sensor-equipped EEM runway with optical processing is a high safety & security, highly intelligent, highly reliable, graceful and comfortable infrastructure system, in which the light processed and enhancing and optimizing crushed shadows & blown highlights and high contrast color layout has a powerful visual flight, runway visual range (RVR), and significant blown highlights in 3D position and posture in various complex weather and occasions for the instrument landing, manually land and taxiing. Hot, cold water and steam system without electromagnetic interference in EEM are used for hot waves and snow and ice. The totally-enclosed EEM system is laid flat on the entire airfield, including the ceiling and flooring of aircraft as well. It will generate enough clean energy, provide enough high-quality air with plentiful oxygen, plant anions, floral, phytoncide, active constituents, and fragrant scents with low-concentration CO2 for passengers and staff, and completely isolate birds’ food chains and habitat, etc. With controllable photosynthetic acceleration by the optimized high-mast lightings and other processed mass lighting systems, the airfield EEM system is a powerful carbon capture system with significant positive spillover. With antiskid and rainwater steerable structures in the EEM, the planes have calculable security assurances in severe weather and catastrophic events. With solar films on the EEM modules and tanks in the bottom, the EEM system is also a powerful large-scale clean energy system and a zero-water consumption system, etc.
As its novelty, predictability and profound potential impact, it is an exceptional accepted conference paper associating with this project in the AeroTech Summit 2021-America, which is also one best paper, a Journal article, and the author won an SAE Certificate of appreciation for outstanding service, which is signed by Jeff Hemphill, the 2021 SAE President. Other accepted papers and presentations are widely spread in ASM, ASCE, ASES, and BSA, etc.

ABOUT THE ENTRANT
- Name:Xiangwen Xiong
- Type of entry:teamTeam members:Mingzi Wu
- Profession:
- Xiangwen is inspired by:We are highly dynamic and creative researchers. We're doing some special works that have not opened provisionally. Our study was extensive, in which some special ecological & economic plants are involved. In the process we discovered some plants, especially the wide variety of tropical plants, they have many special functions and interesting phenomena. The tropical climate is hot and sunny. Contrary to what most people might expect, most tropical pleasing understory plants, such as mosses, orchids, tropical cacti, clerodendrum cyrtophyllum and uvaria microcarpa, receive very little sunlight and should be located in shadier environments without direct sunlight. This gives us an approach and idea to get both global public green and clean energy by an ecological & energized modularized system.
As we continue to in-depth research and extensive expansion, these functions and phenomena combining with advanced technologies and engineering have powerful functional characteristics and a wide range of applications in many fields, especially in today's environment degradation, climate challenges, carbon emissions, sustainability and resilience, etc. We modularized these functions and phenomena and created the ecological & energized module (EEM), EEM living underlying system. Based on the EEM living underlying and fundamental system, we have introduced into modern advanced technology, such as transgenic technology, optical technology, automatic control and sensing technology, transportation technology, coding technology and autonomous driving technology, and created a novel and powerful EEM advanced multi-function system that related to almost every aspect of human life. As we further research and prototype development, the extended EEMs living underlying and fundamental system has a more general interest in almost all the human living & ecological systems, civil engineering infrastructures and had been widely accepted in many Top & Professional organizations and society, some of them are as follows.
1), SAE
The significant research article that relates to this project & products had been published in SAE (the world's largest society of Automobile and Aerotech)

An ecological & energized modules (EEMs) living underlying and fundamental system, which is with a general interest in almost all human living & ecological system, civil engineering, and infrastructure system. It is the basics, underlying and fundamental system of zero energy, zero-water consumption, zero-carbon with a 100% greening rate, 100% clean energy, high-quality air, and powerful carbon capture systems with significant positive spillover for global carbon removal and carbon balance, and climate challenges, etc. There are two main categories of materials used in civil engineering, one is steel, and the other is concrete. It is like the components of the human body. The steel is the skeleton, the concrete is the flesh, and the ecological & energized modules EEMs overlay is the powerful integumentary system with advanced multi-mode functionality. When the EEMs modules & system be used as the concrete overlay for infrastructures, not only is the EEMs system a protective layer and a landscape layer, but it is also a construction method of easy, fast, efficient, noiseless and zero-dependence on the large complex equipment. Honeycomb and prestressed structures have been used in the EEMs system, which is with high strength, high reliability, and high durability in almost all civil engineering and infrastructure.

America must invest more in its infrastructure and road system. From now on, there is no the nuisance of ‘dust was flying everywhere,’ ‘driveway and other places were chipped or cracked,’ and ‘everywhere loose stones and aggregate,’ loud noise and traffic jams make it difficult to get through, etc. A preformed EEM road system for road building, renewing and renovation, which is after 3D scanning and imaging of an old and damaged road, we preforming morphologically matched EEM modules and modular EEM road systems at our manufacturing plant. All the construction process and process flow of road construction on site were transferred to the plant. With the gentle slope pieces at both ends, the preformed EEM Ecological maintenance of old roads can be used immediately after the paving, repairing, and re-laying at any time.
It is pollution-free, safe, noiseless, fast, efficient, easy, and zero-dependence on large complex equipment during construction. All the work can be rehearsed on a computer after three-dimensional scanning and imaging of the actual EEM modules and EEM parts that have been preformed. All possible problems and precautions, such as pavement problems, bearing strength & stress distribution problems, foundation problems and geological problems, will be dealt with in advance on the computer.
