Chapter 248 Chemical Factory ([-])

Hong Xu stood in the fantasy-style "Black Stone Hall", trying hard to keep an "embarrassed yet polite" smile on his face.

The visiting group was looking around in the newly built chemical factory, and Hong Xu, one of the hosts, had to work hard to play his role well.

Generally speaking, someone like him who is not good at dealing with people would not like the scene in front of him, especially when these laymen wandered around in front of him in groups.In fact, if it weren't for the dog's bad temper, he wouldn't have appeared in the 17th century.

But not today, no matter whether he has a good temper or a bad temper, he must do a good job in reception—Emperor Cao is in the visiting team.

The scene that happened in the imperial city a few days ago has already spread to the ears of every traveler who was not present.Although no one dared to discuss the "tomato incident" publicly on the forum, even Hong Xu, who was hiding in the factory and buried himself in the installation of equipment, had completely figured out the cause and effect afterwards. Don't take it seriously.

Looking at Emperor Cao who was swaying freely in the crowd not far away, chatting and laughing happily, and seemed to be intimate with everyone, Hong Xu couldn't help swallowing.After stabilizing his mood, he stepped forward with a lot of smiles and continued to be a tour guide—a temper tantrum is not mentally handicapped, and he can also watch people order food.In front of the emperor whose combat strength is MAX and who waved his hands when he disagreed with him, it is better to be honest
Hong Xu was a technician in a state-owned chemical factory before crossing over.Because this guy is not very good at being a human being, simply put, he doesn't know how to turn a blind eye and close his eyes, so he offended his superiors.After repeated adjustments, he, a top student in chemistry, was finally kicked to the post of cleaning the reaction tower.

After finally persevering until the old man passed away, Hong Xu soon signed a divorce agreement with his wife who quarreled every day-the house was left to the woman, and the man only took the cash. Fortunately, the two had no children.

Before leaving, Hong Xu finally did what he always wanted to do: he sent a package to his immediate superior, which contained a sealed vial. Then he quickly ran away.Although the package was sent anonymously, he knew very well that this matter would not stand up to investigation, and that the opening of the bottle would be a serious case of death.

After coming to the 17th century, Hong Xu quickly fell in love with this place - chemical engineering is a high-level zenith star technology, and he and a few colleagues engaged in chemistry have received enough "attention and respect" in Dayuan.

It is necessary to pay attention, because all the big killers that can affect social upgrading are inseparable from chemical industry, explosives, pesticides, fertilizers, sulfonamides, and so on.You know, since the 18th century, human beings have entered the steam age when steel ships run all over the ground, but the first set of ammonia synthesis equipment did not appear until the beginning of the 20th century.

In short, once it involves high temperature, high pressure, corrosion, poisonous gas and other chemical routines, many industrial systems that look good will immediately reveal their underpants.

The same is true for the kiln base.

Over the past year since landing, the kiln base has grown from scratch, from simple to complete, and it has cost the industrialists countless efforts.However, this kind of construction route is more about bottoming out in the general direction.

That is to say, during this year, the Industrial Party has actually devoted most of its energy to supplementing the production capacity of basic industrial products such as screws.Except for some essential small-volume high-end industrial equipment (such as lathe motors, chips and lead screws), the import quota of the kiln area is used for the purchase of primary equipment.

However, even so, it is not so easy to establish a small but comprehensive industrial system.

At any rate, the rabbit started with hundreds of factories built with the help of the big brother, but what does the time travel have? The 2.8-meter box comes only once every 6 days. In order to compete for the space quota of a piece of watermelon, there have been many melees between departments for more than a year-every time the quota allocation meeting opens at the end of the month, Master Miaoshu will prepare Good sutures and a tetanus shot.
Therefore, it is not easy for the Industrial Party - as the largest import quota consumption department, it feels so sour to be bitten by countless hyenas when they get the chance.

Even so, the current industrial system in Chuanzhong is still extremely weak-it was not until 3 months ago that the first boiler system 100% self-produced in the kiln area was finally announced to leave the factory.

Yes, after more than a year of hard work, the industrial party finally normalized the production of old-fashioned cast iron water pipes, atmospheric valves, rivets, tees, etc., which are extremely common in the eyes of later generations.

And with the first set of self-produced boiler leaving the factory, it is the continuous improvement of the "localization rate" of industrial products in the kiln area.Although the various equipment produced by the Industrial Party is a bit silly and thick, the non-core components have basically achieved self-sufficiency, which has to be regarded as a huge achievement.

Now that the bottom plate is stuck, you can consider taking a step forward.No matter from which point of view, the chemical plant is the most urgently needed artifact of the new generation of town houses.

But Lu Xun said: Eggplants are delicious and hard to grow.

It is an indescribable pain for the chemical factory to import more than 90% of its accessories.Various towers, kettles, furnaces, tanks; various pipeline valve instruments, various compression, separation, crushing machinery, and various chemical glass instruments for detection, measurement, experiment, and reaction.
In fact, apart from the plant itself and some bulky thick glass bottles and bulky bases, the kiln area can't provide anything, and most of the equipment in the chemical plant needs to be imported.

After the situation persisted until June this year, the time travelers still compromised.The thirst for three acids and two alkalis, sulfonamides, and nitrates finally overwhelmed the fear of import quotas—the Heishigou Chemical Plant was finally born in pain.

The reason why it is said to be painful is that there is no turning back when the chemical industry starts.Even if a dedicated acid and alkali resistant valve is missing in a complete set of equipment, the set of equipment can be laid to rest.Therefore, before Hong Xu and the other four chemical workers have shipped all the equipment list made by the four chemical workers to the 17th century, all other material imports can only be suspended to make way for Dad.

For three months, for a full three months, the 12 boxes of goods sent by Emperor Cao were all chemical equipment. Even in August, when the war was raging, the boxes were still being opened here unhurriedly, which made everyone anxious. The people who eat melons wailed again and again.

The dark days finally came to an end with the arrival of September: after three months of intensive installation and commissioning, the Heishigou Chemical Plant will finally enter the trial production stage.

The place name of Heishigou is derived from crossing the public.This valley located in a remote corner of the kiln area was originally nameless. Later, because the walls of the chemical plant were all made of black basalt, it was named this way.

It is an established policy to relocate the entire chemical industry to Heishigou.The location here is relatively secluded and downwind, so it can avoid the collateral damage of various accidents—not afraid of [-], just in case, chemical accidents are usually accompanied by poison cloud and acid rain, so everyone can feel at ease by staying far away.

For this peace of mind, the infrastructure department had to grit their teeth and build a 3-kilometer high-grade road for Heishigou.

This is also unavoidable: some chemical preparations cannot stand being shaken, and the temperature will heat up if it is shaken, and it will make you look good when it heats up.Therefore, although the width of this road is only the specification of a rural road, the road surface is made of high-grade asphalt. History has happened inadvertently: the first asphalt road in the country.

The supporting facilities are not only roads, but a wastewater treatment plant between the kiln area and the chemical area is also under construction.

Wastewater plants are a project that has been put on the agenda jointly by multiple departments a long time ago.

Unlike the world where sewage was secretly drained all day long, the time travelers who stayed in the 17th century paid special attention to the environment around them.There is one core issue in the difference between the attitudes of the two worlds towards wastewater treatment plants: interests.

The reason why later generations are polluted everywhere, there is a key point that cannot be bypassed is "competition".Ubiquitous competition has not only brought social progress, but also various extreme behaviors: companies that do not minimize costs will go bankrupt.

Therefore, factories will secretly discharge pollutants with the tacit approval of the local government.The situation is global: Rabbit's chemical plants are doing it, and White's is piped into the Great Lakes, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Pacific Ocean.

Of course, the time-travelers don't need to do this.

At present, all the enterprises in the kiln area are exclusive brands of global monopoly, without any competitive pressure, so the cost of sewage discharge is not considered at all: the industrial products in the kiln area are now sold according to production, and the price is out of the market economy, a bit like The government-guided price of later generations will cost as little as it does, but not as much as it does.

In addition, for these gentlemen, since every plant, tree, and even every inch of land in this plane will be their own in the future, why should they turn the back garden into a garbage dump? .Nobody spits on their own floor.

Therefore, with the help of the construction of the chemical plant, the construction of the long-prepared sewage plant was officially started.

窑区的污水厂占地面积比较广，有30亩之多.话说17世纪的土地也不值钱就是了。这30亩地眼下只能先开发10亩，能达到日处理污水3—500吨的能力就可以了。

The future sewage plant will connect the main base of the kiln area and the chemical sub-base.The factory area not only has the traditional means of sedimentation, filtration, stirring, and evaporation to treat conventional sewage; in addition, a special micro-electrolytic pool will be developed separately to treat the chemical wastewater discharged from the Heishi Factory.

The micro-electrolysis reaction is carried out by means of the fillers in the reactor: iron filings and activated carbon granules.

Both fillers have the basic elements needed for micro-electrolysis reactions: iron and carbon.The low-potential iron and high-potential carbon form a potential difference in the wastewater, and then the conductive wastewater acts as an electrolyte to form countless primary batteries to break up the molecular clusters of pollutants and electrolyze the pollutants.

This is a very advanced way of treating wastewater.

In addition, considering the extremely cheap power supply of a certain faction, it is very likely that the sewage plant in the future will directly install equipment for electrolyzing wastewater—crude, but effective.
