Chapter 98 Accidentally Over-modified
The plan to gain experience failed due to battery life issues, so Kang Chi had to wait patiently for the remaining parts and materials. Fortunately, the waiting time was not too long, and they were basically all there on the third day.
So Kang Chi began to retreat again and conduct experimental research on the digestion and distillation module.
Kang Chi used the Fushun distillation method for the digestion module, which is one of the four major oil shale distillation processes in the world. It first appeared in the 1930s.
Its advantages are that the distillation furnace has a simple structure and is very durable. It can also complete distillation collection for low-grade oil shale. The disadvantages are also obvious, that is, the amount of shale processed each time is small, the oil recovery rate is only 65%, and it will cause air pollution.
However, later, Fushun Mining Group upgraded the technology of the Fushun furnace, strengthened the degree of automation, and increased the oil recovery rate to 80%. It has also made great improvements in environmental protection, energy saving and volume.
In fact, whether it is China’s Fushun furnace or the United States’ Peraho furnace, with the current technology, it is not suitable to be directly installed on the oil extractor.
Because these distillation methods have one thing in common, that is, they all need to burn shale to obtain distillation temperature, and burning at a depth of several thousand meters underground, not only is oxygen a big problem, but it also violates Kangchi’s original design intention of saving electricity and fuel.
Therefore, the distillation furnace is just a primer, just to let the system know what it has built, and then leave the rest of the problems to the system upgrade and improvement…
As Kangchi carefully completed the assembly, the familiar system panel popped up again.
[Item: Miniature Shale Oil Retort]
[Manufacturer: Kang Chi]
[Item Level: 1]
[Experience: 0/100]
[Item Status: Intact]
[Analysis Item: No Analysis Item]
[General Experience: 6308]
[Mastery Points: 50.6]
Fortunately, nothing went wrong this time.
Looking at this mini retort on the table that is only 80cm high and looks like a thermos cup, Kang Chi couldn’t help but feel a little emotional.
If this thing was made before, even if he could design it, it would be a headache just to rub the precision parts. But now, he can directly use the R&D team and equipment of Dahan Silicon Industry to make them his own parts manufacturing center, greatly reducing the time and difficulty of equipment manufacturing.
It’s very comfortable.
Although the system has popped up a panel, indicating that this distillation furnace can indeed refine oil,
But Kang Chi still couldn’t help wanting to test it in practice, so he took out a few pieces of oil shale that he asked Yan Hui to buy and crushed them.
From the outside, oil shale is not much different from ordinary rocks.
If the oil content is relatively high, it will be black, and if the oil content is relatively low, it may be brown or even white.
Although it looks like ordinary rock, this thing really has oil in it, and it can be directly ignited with fire.
If you use a hydraulic press to press it, it may not be able to squeeze out oil, and it must be refined with a distillation furnace.
This is the obvious difference between the shale oil of M country and China.
Most of the shale oil currently mined in M country is in rock layers with a relatively high oil content and a shallow depth, just like a sponge full of oil, and the oil can be squeezed out relatively easily by the fracturing method.
However, most of China’s oil shales have fast sedimentary phase changes, strong heterogeneity, low thermal evolution, and high wax content, resulting in poor fluidity, making mining more difficult. The current mining direction is to use fracturing and pressure to squeeze oil from a small number of oil-rich shales, and directly dig out the shallower oil shales for dry distillation to extract oil.
The dry distillation method seems to be backward and primitive, but it is actually highly applicable. As long as the mining cost and environmental damage problems can be solved, it may be the most suitable method for shale oil mining in China.
After crushing the oil shale, Kang Chi began to manually pour it into the feed port on the top of the dry distillation furnace, then turned on the power and pressed the start button to start the equipment.
Since the equipment is fully enclosed, Kang Chi cannot see the specific dry distillation process, and can only roughly guess its working progress based on the design principle.
After five minutes, the temperature of the furnace body began to rise significantly. This is because Fushun distillation furnaces are usually grouped into 20 units, sharing one condenser. Kang Chi was just doing a simple test and would not let it work for too long, so he did not install a condenser on it.
As the temperature of the furnace body rose, thick black liquid finally began to overflow from the oil outlet.Flowed into the small container prepared in advance.
The whole distillation process lasted for about ten minutes, and finally successfully collected 30ml of oil. In fact, if you continue to add materials, you can collect at least 100ml in ten minutes, but because there is no condenser, Kang Chi dare not continue to add materials,
Otherwise it will probably explode…
In fact, Kang Chi had long been hiding behind a steel plate, and waited until the distillation furnace stopped working and the temperature dropped to a certain level before he dared to approach and check the collected oil.
Well, The smell is very authentic, like rotten eggs.
Next, connect 20 distillation furnaces and condensers in series, and then install them on the digestion module in the middle of the oil extractor.
Kang Chi worked on this process for four days and still hadn’t completed it until Fang Qiming couldn’t help but call and ask about the situation of Kang Chi’s production line, and then Kang Chi remembered this matter.
“It’s ready. You can come and take it away anytime. By the way, bring the coating machine with you.”
”Ah? The coating machine needs to be upgraded too? Then don’t we have to take turns to take holidays?”
”Isn’t it good to have holidays?”
”Well… of course the employees are happy, but I’m under a lot of pressure.”
”Don’t worry, technology is the primary productive force. When you see the upgraded equipment, you won’t be stressed.”
Fang Qiming thought Kang Chi said this just to comfort him. After all, Kang Chi had said before that it was just a small upgrade.
And the improvement work took more than a week. How much improvement can it have?
However, when Fang Qiming came to Kang Chi’s house and saw this completely transformed lens manufacturing machine, he realized that he was too naive! Thinking back to the first time he entered the warehouse of Daqin Optics and saw the densely packed parts, lines and equipment, he suddenly realized that you can only believe half of Kang Chi’s words! “I remember you said it was just a small upgrade, not a big project…”
”Well… I accidentally over-modified it.”
Kang Chi made up a random excuse to deal with it.
Anyway, every corner of this house was designed and supervised by him personally. The outer layer uses electronic anti-theft, and the inner layer directly uses the simplest physical mechanical structure anti-theft door. As long as the two doors are closed, no one knows what he did inside.
Then, Kang Chi introduced Fang Qiming to the use of the upgraded equipment. At this time, Fang Qiming was no longer the young man who knew nothing about lens manufacturing.
After listening to Kang Chi’s introduction, he realized more clearly that this equipment not only had a huge change in appearance, but also had a completely changed functional structure. It definitely reached the world-class level! With this lens manufacturing machine, it is so easy to make microscopes, scopes, etc.!
This made Fang Qiming’s heart begin to heat up, and he couldn’t wait to try the effect immediately.
”After you go back, let the R&D team try several raw material ratios according to different lens requirements. If you have any questions, call me at any time.”
Fang Qiming nodded, and suddenly asked: “These are all the parts you asked Dahan Silicon to help make, right?”
”Well, what’s wrong?”
”How much did it cost? Do you want me to pay Dahan Silicon?”
”Well…”
Kang Chi then remembered that Dahan Silicon had two shareholders, and he was indeed taking advantage of Dahan Silicon’s resources…
The fact that Fang Qiming could think of this was enough to prove that although he had grown a lot, he was still the honest and conscientious young man in his bones.
Kang Chi invited him because he saw this character of his and felt more assured in using him.
In addition, being able to raise this question also shows that he is really thinking about the problem from Kang Chi’s perspective and doesn’t want to make it difficult for him.
Kang Chi is still very relieved.
He patted Fang Qiming on the shoulder: “Thank you for reminding me. I will ask Dahan’s finance department to draw up a list of expenses. You can owe it first and pay it back when you have more money. It is estimated that it will only cost a few million to transform the three machines.”
”Okay.”
After Fang Qiming left, Kang Chi did the same thing and upgraded the newly pulled lens coating machine.
The upgraded coating machine is only slightly larger than before, and it feels like it has a white skin. After some understanding, Kang Chi found that although its appearance has not changed much, its performance has improved a lot.
The most obvious thing is that the coatingThere are more types, and the optional coating types include anti-reflection coating, dielectric high-reflection coating, metal reflective coating, polarizing coating, waterproof coating, etc. There are nearly ten types!
In addition to the increase in the types of coating, up to three coating layers can be superimposed on the same lens!
With this multi-layer coating technology, coupled with the upgrade of lens materials, Daqin Optics’ next lens products will definitely not lose to Suoni and others in terms of image quality. Even if it is well debugged, maybe even Zeiss is not a match!
Kang Chi hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to spend 5 proficiency points to analyze the multi-layer coating technology of this coating machine separately, so as to avoid the situation of being ignorant of everything.
After the analysis, he drew a small part of the parts design drawings based on the knowledge he obtained and sent them to Yan Hui for manufacturing.
This is mainly for Chen Hai and others to see, otherwise, they only see the equipment coming in, without even a piece of iron or anything, and it comes out as an upgraded equipment…
It’s a bit outrageous.
After finishing the coating machine, Kang Chi left it alone for a while as usual and continued to make oil extractors.
Since the manufacturing process of the two modules needs to be automated to a certain extent, the manufacturing process is not smooth. After repeated tests and improvements, the system panel was finally updated on the sixth day! [Item: Shale Oil Automatic Refiner]
[Manufacturer: Kang Chi]
[Item Level: 1]
[Experience: 2/300]
[Item Status: Intact]
[Analysis Item: No Analysis Item]
[General Experience: 6308]
[Mastery Points: 47.3]
Kang Chi finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the name of the item.
This idiot system finally knows what it is doing…
It’s a pity that the upgrade experience has also tripled! According to Kang Chi’s understanding of the nature of the system, the experience will double or even quadruple with each subsequent level-up. I don’t know if these 6308 points of general experience can withstand the tossing…
Kang Chi slowly moved away from the machine and began to upgrade it continuously.
General experience -298, - 900, - 2700!
As three rays of light flashed, the crude oil extraction machine quickly transformed into a six-meter-long gray giant insect. Its round and segmented body is a bit like a centipede, but because it has no legs and is short in length, it looks not only less disgusting than a centipede, but also a bit cute.
Perhaps,
It should be called a gray silkworm? [Item: Shale Oil Automatic Refiner]
[Manufacturer: Kang Chi]
[Item Level: 4]
[Experience: 0/8100]
[Item Status: Intact]
[Analysis Item: Analyzable]
[General Experience: 2410]
[Mastery Points: 47.3]
Just three upgrades directly consumed 3898 general experience points,
And the experience required for the next upgrade has also reached an astonishing 8100!
Kang Chi looked at the remaining 2410 general experience and couldn’t help but feel a little painful.
As the technological content of items becomes higher and higher, both the mastery points required for analysis and the upgrade experience have shown a clear upward trend.
It seems that Daqin Optics’ after-sales policy of original price replacement and free replacement is still necessary, but it needs to be improved a little, such as changing the original price replacement to a high price replacement,
Free replacement adds a quality requirement, and tries to recycle battlefield quality lenses with more experience.
Then the activity does not need to continue all the time, just do it once when you lack experience.
Kang Chi was about to learn more about the upgraded oil extractor, but his cell phone rang suddenly.
He picked up the phone and looked at the caller. It was Wu Lihong, so he answered the call immediately: “Hello, Mr. Wu? This is Kang Chi.”
”Well, are you busy now? Is it convenient to answer the phone?”
”Well, I’m at home now. What’s the matter?”
”Actually, it’s nothing important. I just want to ask what you’ve been busy with recently.”
Kang Chi immediately heard that Wu Lihong seemed to have something else in his words. He felt that he had finished the silicon wafer and had a rest for a whole period of time, so he wanted to urge him…
”Well… I’ve been improving the lens production line for Daqin Optics recently, and then I made a little oil extraction gadget…”
”The little oil extraction gadget?”
”Well, I can’t explain it for a while, you’ll know when the time comes…”
In fact, Kang Chi himself didn’t knowHow is the upgraded oil extractor, so he kept it a secret for a while.
Wu Lihong did not ask further, but thought that Kang Chi might have made some strange little inventions out of personal interest, for example, the excavator toy he heard from Chief Lu…
”What are your plans after you improve the lens production line?”
”Teacher Wu, you should just speak frankly…”
”Haha, okay, I won’t beat around the bush… Zhang Dayuan has called me every now and then recently, wanting me to persuade you to go to Yanjing HEPS and work with him on the research of steady-state micro-beam light sources.”
HEPS?
It turned out to be Academician Zhang…
Kang Chi was a little surprised after hearing this.
HEPS is a high-energy synchrotron radiation source invested and built by the state in Yanjing. This kind of scientific research facility is a bit like a particle accelerator, but it studies photons instead of physical particles.
There have been rumors that China plans to build a high-energy synchrotron radiation source like a particle accelerator to verify the use of a large-scale steady-state micro-beam light source to replace the EUV light source of the lithography machine and build a super lithography plant.
Isn’t it true?
Kang Chi couldn’t help but ask curiously: “Isn’t HEPS built yet?”
”Well, it is still under construction, but some equipment problems need to be solved while it is being built.”
”I see.” Kang Chi nodded, and after thinking for a moment, he said, “I don’t think I can do it during this period. Let’s talk about it after I’m done with this period.”
”Well, it’s okay. I guess he’s not in a hurry… But if you have rested and relaxed enough, you should also think about the next research direction… You are still young and have the strongest innovation ability , don’t waste this precious time…”
”…”
Kang Chi couldn’t help looking at the door after hearing Wu Lihong’s earnest advice…
Although he couldn’t see outside because the door was closed, Kang Chi could imagine Chen Hai’s expression when he told his boss that he was playing with mud…
He sighed helplessly: “Don’t worry, I’m not losing my ambition…”
”Haha, that’s good.”
”…”
After hanging up the phone, Kang Chi looked at the upgraded oil extractor again.
Haha,
You all thought I was playing with mud and losing my ambition, right?
