Release that Witch Chapter 1003: New ladder

"Why the expression is so serious," Nightingale suddenly laughed, "Actually, whatever you say, I will believe it. But you have to give others a little time to accept it, otherwise you can say something bigger Thousands of Devils have been converted into fly ash, and no one can imagine it immediately, especially after seeing the physical object separated by Lucia. "

"Are you there?" Roland touched his cheek, probably considering that human beings are facing a life-and-death time race, making him unconsciously create a sense of crisis, "but what you said is, after all, you have not seen Before, I did n’t even believe it myself. "

He turned around and held the humble "stone" in his hands.

This is the purified metal uranium at the beginning of the road to fire.

With a few words, it ’s really difficult for people to associate it with the “things that fight for glory”. The silvery-white surface becomes dull and dull due to oxidation. The cold touch does not matter how light and heat look. , But Roland knows that as long as it is under the right conditions, it will naturally show its magic.

To collect it, after the meeting, Lucia and Speer were busy on the Northern Slope Mine for almost a week, decomposing the broken granite rock around the mine. For this reason, the female Earl also had some complaints, thinking that it was hurtful to let her toss and turn in the rubble, and for this reason, she removed five apprentices from City Hall.

The result is such a small piece.

Compared to the uranium block originally used as a sample, this thumb-sized metallic uranium has a purity of more than 90%, and is divided into two layers under the adjustment of Lucia, with uranium-235 on one surface and uranium remaining. -238, the composition ratio is: 99, and this is also the natural ratio of the two in nature.

In other words, the uranium element with a thickness of less than one head hair on the surface of the stone can already be called "weapon grade".

As a stable nuclide, whether it is 238, which is the overwhelming majority, but not very useful, or 235, which can be used to make the ultimate weapon, its half-life is in billions of years. Such a long decay period, coupled with the major release of a particles during decay, has a range of only tens of microns in human tissue, and even the epidermis cannot penetrate, so even if it is held in the hand, it will not be fatally exposed. Photo injury.

Of course, this does not mean that it is absolutely safe to touch high concentrations of uranium directly.

After all, some of the a nuclides produced by decay may be highly toxic. It will be troublesome to stick to your hands and eat them in your stomach.

So Roland asked Soraya to cover a "stone piece" with a transparent film. In addition to preventing it from further oxidation, it was also to avoid accidents caused by chemical poisoning.

Know that most people in the world do n’t develop the habit of washing their hands frequently.

He looked at the things in his palm, and he couldn't help feeling a little emotional. This piece of metallic uranium containing so much energy lies so quietly in the palm of the hand, before it reaches the threshold, it looks so peaceful and harmless, almost no different from the ordinary iron, and it is no wonder that Pasha will be incredible. .

Now that this step has been taken, the first task is to collect all the materials needed for Qi Brilliant Radiation.

Azima can find samples with much lower purity through high-concentration uranium coins, at least proving that it is feasible to use it for prospecting. Although Lucia is decomposed and aggregated in the mine day after day, a sufficient amount of uranium-235 can be obtained, but that is contrary to the original intention of multi-project parallelism.

She still plays an irreplaceable role in high-end metal smelting.

Moreover, weapon-grade uranium alone cannot make a real live ammunition. To keep it from becoming dirty, Roland also needs a truly rare element. It is usually associated with uranium ore, and its content is only one ten millionth of the former. Even with the help of Lucia, it needs a large amount of raw ore to solve.

In short, we have to watch Azima next.

Roland put a small piece of metal uranium back into the box, locked it back in the drawer, and then pulled out an unfinished internal combustion engine design drawing from the dossier on the side and spread it out on the table.

Although most Neverwinter people will fall asleep early on a snowy night when the wind is howling, for him, there is still a lot of work to do.

"Are you going to sleep late again today?" Nightingale said with a head tilted.

He moved his neck and raised his quill pen. "Everyone finally saw the hope. I can't give up because I'm lazy. For the sake of fame, sleep less is nothing."

"Really ... but at least half of my words are wrong."

"Aren't you saying that you believe me."

"But using your ability to confirm your heart is also your own request." Nightingale spit out his tongue.

"Okay, okay, I want to do it myself, okay?" He said helplessly, "I don't want to lose to Devil, and the so-called divine will."

"Yeah, this time is the truth. Then I'll help you make a cup of hot tea, and by the way take a supper," Nightingale smiled, "Five spiced barbecue, honey mushrooms, fried shrimp with salt and pepper, and refreshing Chaos Drink, how about having a copy for the kitchen? "

Hey, you want to eat it yourself!

Roland shook his head in tears and laughed, "I like it."

"As you bid, My Majesty," she slyly said.

...

The next day, Azima took the high-purity uranium chip and embarked on a journey to find the source. Roland also received another good news from City Hall.

The petroleum fractionation tower project jointly participated by Ministry of Construction and Ministry of Chemistry has completed the construction of Tower 1.

To show importance, Roland personally attended the launching ceremony.

This high tower is located on the bank of Scarlet Water River and in the Neverwinter industrial zone. The tower is close to 25 meters. It is also a masterpiece of new technology and new ideas. The tower itself is not special, it is nothing more than the middle partition. Layer, using different boiling points of oil vapor to separate different products. The specific temperature measurement and evaporation control have been completed in the laboratory, plus the welding technology of Anna, it can fully meet the requirements of simple fractionation.

In fact ... the quality of the distillate product has little to do with the tower itself. It is so small that even in some places, even an boiler can be used to fractionate the oil. This reminded him of the geography book when he was a kid. It says that there are many things about the motherland, but when he grows up, he knows that there are ... but the quality is generally not good, and it has added countless problems to the refiners.

He found that natural resource is almost the same as what it looks like. There is a natural difference. The gap between high-grade minerals and inferior minerals is like Tianyuan, which can only be made up by the efforts of the day after tomorrow. So is oil. Crude oil that is rich in wax, sulfur, and inorganic salts is as thick as mud. It is incombustible at the point of fire and cannot be used without further processing. Some light oils, such as the oil fields in Borneo, are basically touched and extracted. Can be used directly when the fuel burns.

Black River, which spreads over half of Extreme Southern Region, belongs to the latter.

After learning that there is a self-spraying phenomenon, Roland became interested in this desert land. In fact, it has been proved that the oil collected from Endless Cape is not bad. After fractionation, it can basically meet the current requirements for use. Although far less than the refined products of later generations, he does not have to pursue one step in place.

The real advanced part of this project is more about the supporting system and system design.
