Saving energy loss through the conduction is the major objective of several advanced countries so superconductors are the essential
material to achieve such these demands. The present investigations were concerned by synthesis of pure BPSCCO (Bi0.5Pb0.5)2Sr2Ca1Cu2O8 and its variant zirconium containing composites with general formula : Bi1+xZrxPbSr2Ca1Cu2Oz, where x=0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 mole % respectively, were prepared via solution route (Freeze Drying Technique ) to obtain nano-product. ZrO2 has a limited effect on the main crystalline superconductive 2212-phase as x amount added increase as indicated in XRD measurements. SE-microscopy along with EDX proved that, solution route was the best in the degree of homogneties and exact molar ratios. ZrO2 exhibits strong interactions on Raman spectral modes of 2212-phase . ZrO2 has a slight effect on Tc’s even with maximum addition x=0.3 mole. Finally the application of ZrO2- nano-additives to the 2212-BPSCCO superconductors enhance the super-conduction mechanism and consequently save too much the amount of electricity loss on the main nets of electricity
