Monster Factory Chapter 24: : Race against time
Many chemical raw materials need to be kept at a certain temperature when they are synthesized, so that the molecular activities in the raw materials are intensified, the energy increases, and they react with catalysts and then transform into another substance.
Whether it is a reactor not much larger than a pressure cooker in the laboratory, or a large-scale Factory, it is tens of meters high and can reflect hundreds of tons of behemoths at a time.
Anyone who is engaged in chemical industry cannot leave this tool.
In Gangjie Chemicals, the reactor that encountered a failure was a steam-heated reactor.
This behemoth is divided into two layers. After high pressure steam is injected into the middle compartment, the temperature in the reactor can be quickly increased.
Now the high-pressure steam pipe is ruptured, and a large amount of steam leaks from the center of the lake. Of course, the temperature in the reactor can't rise.
"Zhang Professor, Zhang Professor." Boss Rong Wei anxiously called the expert over: "Do you think you can stop the steam boiler temporarily?"
, gray-haired Zhang Professor walked over and rubbed his wrinkled forehead: "The synthesis of diethanolamine is now the last step. It enters the reactor and heats it to 120 degrees to react with the catalyst for dehydration."
"If the temperature does not go up, the dehydration step cannot be carried out. The catalyst's active time is only eight hours. Now one hour has passed. If the steam is cut off, the temperature in the kettle will drop rapidly..."
"There is only one hour at most. After the steam can be heated normally, then by increasing the steam pressure to increase the temperature, and the raw material warehouse pumping power, it should be saved, and there will be little hope later."
Injecting a catalyst is an irreversible process.
is like a bullet fired. Once it fails to hit the target, the bullet is wasted.
The same goes for catalysts. Once the reaction fails, all of this batch of raw materials will be discarded and become pollutants whose specific effects are unknown. They must be destroyed at a high price.
There is still an hour to hear, the tears of Boss Rong Wei are about to come out, and the employees who grabbed the underwater infrastructure of the dragon shouted anxiously: "You prepare first, and I will cut off the steam immediately when you are ready."
"One hour?" The employees of the Dragon's underwater infrastructure construction are not happy again: "Don't talk about 500,000, give one million, and you can't weld underwater pipelines in one hour."
"I saw your steam pipe, the double-layer steel structure. Now there are two damaged layers. The one layer must be cut off and the glass fiber can be cleaned before welding."
"I don't think five hours are too short, and we are not robots. Besides, even if we can find a robot, it will not be completed in an hour."
"One million, I beg you, I will give one million." Boss Rong Wei can't wait to change into a wetsuit personally and go down together.
"Do you know how difficult it is to start an arc in underwater welding?"
The diver who built the underwater infrastructure of the giant dragon patiently gave this financial backer popular science: "When bad luck, it takes dozens of times to start the arc successfully once. A waterproof electrode can only weld a few centimeters of seam underwater. Replace it. The electrode has to float to the surface to be replaced."
"Of course I know the difficulty, otherwise why would I make a million?" financial backer Rong Wei, some are a little crazy at this moment: "I don't care what method you use, if the welding is done within an hour, I will give 100 Million."
"Take a few more welding guns and weld together." One worker suggested.
"At most two welding torches, the pipe is so thick, you can play mahjong when crowded?"
One million, this is a small astronomical figure. No company has built Company underwater and can be indifferent to this money.
When they were hesitant to pick them up, a small JAC truck came to the scene again.
This truck is printed with [Qianjiang Underwater Engineering], which seems to be Zhongyun's other underwater welding Company, and now the two Companys of Zhongyun are all here.
Board Chairman Li Huaxing immediately greeted him, gave each person a cigarette, and then pointed to the artificial lake and said that as long as the pipe can be welded in one hour, this Factory Boss can give one hundred Ten thousand rewards.
"It should be no problem with welding, but it will definitely not work in one hour." The Manager who led the team looked at the leaking steam from the fountain, and said patiently, similar to the previous counterpart.
Of course, one million compensation is very attractive.
Two colleagues who had met like enemies, they got together at this moment, and muttered whether everyone should work together to see if they can earn this million.
"Give it a try, in case a miracle happens!" The two Manager leaders quickly reached an agreement.
Ye Qing didn't know how to speak at this moment. Two professionals came to see them following the doping-like handling equipment. He decided to look at děng děng|etc|wait first.
If they can’t do it, they can do it by themselves.
After all, people do this professionally. There are a lot of device. I am alone and widowed. I go up and say that I am coming, which is convincing.
Oxygen cylinders, electric welding machines, special underwater welding guns with tens of meters of pipelines, cutting guns, device were quickly unloaded in the same way.
Gangjie Chemicals’s worker also towed the power line early, and there are two small boats dedicated to cleaning the surface of the garbage on the artificial lake.
"Notify the steam boiler room to stop gas." Seeing that all procedures are ready, Boss Rong Wei gave an order.
About ten seconds or so, the immense fog column in the middle of the lake slowly descended, and water cannons burst out.
On the boat, two divers with exhalation tubes fixed the underwater searchlight first, and then slowly went into the water with the ignited cutting gun~IndoMTL.com~The artificial lake is very large, although the leaked steam is burnt to death A part of herring that is not in a hurry to avoid. But when the steam turned off, the temperature of the entire lake did not rise too high.
The temperature of the lake water is not high, and the temperature of the pipe near the damaged port is not high.
Under the shining of several high-power halogen lamps, everyone on the shore could see clearly. The two divers just got into the water and immediately exploded like a cat with a tail.
"Why are the pipes still emitting hot water?" The diver vomited out of his breathing apparatus and screamed, grinning.
"Waste heat, waste heat!" The Boss Rong Wei on the shore was sweating profusely: "This is the pressure pipe. The valves on both sides are closed. Wait until the air pressure in the pipe leaks out of the then it will be alright."
waited ten minutes, but the two divers who kept their feet testing the water temperature couldn't go down.
Listening to the staff constantly reporting the temperature changes in the reactor, Rong Wei is completely anxious: "What are you waiting for, thinking I am asking you for pedicure?"
"You can do it, you can go, I'm not iron beaten, this pipe keeps spraying hot water, you want to scald me."
Rong Wei, without saying anything, let the security guard row a boat to take him over.
reached the leak, Rong Wei reached in and tried, and fell silent.
Five minutes later, the lake stopped bubbling. Rong Wei was like a wild goose that had been shot, and suddenly stood up from the boat.
The two divers also came to their spirits, lighting the cutting guns and slowly entering the water.
Underwater cutting operation, how many people have seen it?
There are a lot of worker surrounded by the shore, which is more active than watching the celebrity concert. Even the two firefighters who stayed here craned their necks and looked towards the center of the lake~ IndoMTL.com~ Welcome book friends Come and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all at ~IndoMTL.com~cell phone customer(s), please go to read.
