Siheyuan: I am Yi Zhonghai's biological son

Chapter 78 Crude Oil Refining Equipment

One day, Yi Ping'an was reading a newspaper in the office when suddenly a piece of news caught Yi Ping'an's attention. It was the news that Russia had withdrawn its experts in China.

Yi Ping'an then remembered that Damao had been at odds with us before, but withdrawing the experts this time was tantamount to cutting off the source of the firewood. Many important projects had to be suspended, and we had to figure it out on our own.

Yi Ping'an was not angry. He had known this news in his previous life, and he also understood that he was the only one who had the real thing. However, Damao's behavior of adding insult to injury was really shameful. It seemed that he had to do something and could not just sit there doing nothing.

Yi Ping'an got up and went to the Machinery Factory No. 1 and found the factory director Liang Hongguang.

"Director, how is the factory's performance now?"

"Engineer Yi, the sales of tractors have dropped significantly recently. The boilers we are currently working on are still fulfilling the original orders from Russia, but there are no follow-up orders. However, our factory is not short of orders at the moment. We haven't received any orders from our own country at all."

"That's fine, but why are tractor orders decreasing?" Yi Ping'an asked.

"Well, I've also asked someone to investigate. They want the car, but they don't have the oil!" Director Liang said with a sigh.

"No oil?" Yi Ping'an slapped his head. He was really confused. A car without oil is like a piece of iron.

"Director Liang, if you have any problems, please call me or tell Shao Dongyang. I'll go back first." Yi Ping'an said and left in a hurry.

On the way back to the steel mill, Yi Ping'an was thinking about the time point in his previous life. He forgot that China is still an "oil-poor country" now. The Daqing Oilfield was only discovered last year. Although other oil fields have also been discovered, the technology for mining and refining is far from the level of later generations.

Yi Pingan returned to the office and began to organize his thoughts, first the nodding machine, then the oil refining equipment. After organizing his thoughts from mining to refining, Yi Pingan was ready to compete with it.

The scientific name of the kowtow machine is a beam pump. The principle is very simple, which is the principle of lever and piston movement. Anyone with a little knowledge of physics can understand it. Although it is bulky, it is widely used. Even when Yi Ping'an came through, it was still in use.

The crude oil refining equipment, the principle of this thing is not difficult, to put it simply, it is to distill and separate the oil according to the different boiling points of various substances in the crude oil. However, this system, once it is built, will be a large-scale chemical plant. Yi Ping'an does not know whether the current national conditions can support such a large amount of funds.

Yi Ping'an was in seclusion again. Every day, he stayed in the office, drawing the drawings of this equipment from beginning to end, one by one, and calculating the data required for each distillation product based on the annual processing of 100 million tons of crude oil.

The largest crude oil processing plant in my country is now in Shanghai. It is a legacy plant. After several expansions, its current annual processing capacity is 50 tons. This processing capacity is actually not large.

You should know that in the millennium, the annual processing capacity of Daqing Petrochemical reached 650 million tons, but the Daqing Refinery is still nowhere to be seen, and construction will not start until two years later. Let's bring it forward this time.

Building an oil refinery is not just for refining oil, but also for the refining and processing of its ancillaries, which will lead to a series of factories, such as chemicals, fertilizers, rubber, acrylic fiber and so on.

Yi Ping'an stayed in seclusion for a month, eating and sleeping in the office. The factory leaders were used to Yi Ping'an's working mode. Not only the security department received orders, but the canteen also received orders.

Now his meals are delivered to him by his assistant. Secretary Chen also asked the canteen to take good care of his diet. This task fell on Sha Zhui. He would cook a special meal for Yi Ping'an every day, which would then be brought back by Yi Ping'an's assistant.

Sha Zhu even signed a confidentiality agreement for this, which prohibited him from telling anyone even if Yi Zhonghai or his wife asked. This was the first time Sha Zhu signed this, and he never thought that a cook like him would see this thing one day.

This also made Sha Zhu admire Yi Ping'an more and more, and he promised that he would not say a word even if he died. Sha Zhu had a sense of brotherhood and loyalty. He now felt that he was very powerful and had the feeling of joining the organization.

Yi Ping'an's current assistant is Qian Jin, the nephew of Director Qian of the Technical Department. He also went through many trials and tribulations before coming to Yi Ping'an. With the example of Shao Dongyang in the past, it is now extremely important for these technicians to have someone to cling to.

In the words of Director Qian: If you don't listen, just beat him, no need to give him face, you can order him however you want, but you can't go back.

A week later, all the drawings were finally completed. Even with the support of Lingquan, Yi Ping'an still felt a little tired. He only knew the principles from his previous life. God knew why he, a mechanical engineering major, wanted to do chemical engineering.

It's all Damao's fault. He had to provoke him. Let's write down this account first. When he divides the family property, take back all his stuff, as much as possible, especially those from the prodigal son's family. Instead of letting him squander them all, it's better to take them back and make some contribution.

After the drawings were completed, Yi Ping'an took the money and entered the special workshop. At the same time, the people from the security department were also in place.

Qian Jin only graduated from a technical secondary school and has only a dabbling knowledge of processing technology. He can handle simple workpieces, but Yi Ping'an has to do the sophisticated ones himself. Yi Ping'an is also tired, so he has no choice but to ask his father for help when he has difficulties.

Yi Ping'an once again transferred Yi Zhonghai over. Anyway, he was now the deputy director of the workshop, and it was not his turn to take care of ordinary workpieces. He should just serve Hao Da'er.

Yi Zhonghai was quite happy and came here joyfully. He didn't feel tired at all working with his son. He hadn't seen his son for a long time.

Yi Zhonghai processes the workpieces, and Yi Pingan does the rest of the assembly and welding by himself. You have to learn even if you have to bring money with you. If you can't learn it, just practice. This is the basis if you want to take the engineer exam, otherwise you will just be a technician for life.

Although this kid is two years older than Yi Ping'an, his uncle told him that he must be obedient and have some insight. Haven't you seen how powerful Shao Dongyang is now? That was all taught by Yi Gong.

After two weeks of hard work, eating and sleeping in the factory, the three of them worked overtime and were almost exhausted, and finally they made the model. It was designed completely according to the standards of the millennium, and there were as many as 11 by-products produced.

From the perspective of later generations, this model is just a large toy, but it can be used, the effect is the same, and every step can be understood. If you want to build a factory, you can just expand it in the same proportion. Looking at the model that is the same size as the sand table, Yi Pingan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Neither Yi Zhonghai nor Qian Jin knew what this was about. No wonder, Yi Zhonghai didn't know it, and Qian Jin's major was not related to this.

Let Qian go in and call Secretary Chen, and ask him to bring back a barrel of diesel. Forget about crude oil, because the diesel at this time is not pure at all, so it can barely be used as crude oil.

After Qian Jin left, Yi Ping'an also asked his father to go back, the less he knew, the safer it would be. He also asked him to ask Wei Zhonghua for leave and rest for two more days. Yi Ping'an was left alone, he sat against the wall, smoking a cigarette, thinking that after the project was over, he really needed to have a good rest. If it weren't for the spiritual spring, he would definitely have fallen down.

Secretary Chen arrived quite quickly. When he saw the model, he didn't recognize it, but he could tell it was a big factory.

Yi Ping'an asked him to wait for a moment because there was an important thing that had not arrived yet, and he would demonstrate it to him when it arrived.

After a while, Qian Jin came back with a barrel of diesel.

Yi Ping'an put the oil barrel on the ground, plugged in the electricity, put the oil pump of the nodding machine into the barrel, and saw the model start to work.

When a barrel of diesel is pumped out and the nodding machine stops working, you can see the diesel being separated little by little and entering different tanks through the distillation pipes.

At this time, Yi Pingan began to explain to Secretary Chen: "Secretary Chen, this is a complete set of equipment for crude oil extraction and refining. This side is for extraction, where the crude oil is extracted and sent to the refinery through pipelines. This whole is the model of the refinery..."

Yi Ping'an explained each step in detail, and told Secretary Chen what was separated, and if conditions permit, they could be separated a second time, and what else could be separated.

After talking for an hour, he answered Secretary Chen's questions. Secretary Chen was stunned. This is a big factory. Yi Ping'an also told him that they can take down the kowtow machine. It is not difficult to produce, but it is a bit heavy. If other parts can be obtained, they can also try to obtain them. It depends on how he fights.

Secretary Chen immediately went to the office and called Minister Xu.

Secretary Chen had reported to Minister Xu since the day Yi Ping'an went into seclusion. Now he finally knew the answer. When Minister Xu heard that it was about energy, he immediately set off for the steel mill.

After arriving at the special workshop, Yi Ping'an demonstrated the working process of the model again, explaining the process while watching it.

"Minister, this is the working process of the entire refinery. This model is scaled down at the same scale. If the plant is built, the annual crude oil processing capacity can reach 100 to 150 million tons." Yi Ping'an made the final summary.

"Mr. Yi, can you really achieve such a high processing volume?" Minister Xu couldn't believe it. This was already the largest processing volume at present.

"Yes, in fact, if there is sufficient funding, we can expand the factory so that the processing volume can be increased. I have already sorted out the drawings of the factory. This model is to allow us to see the processing process and the testing of by-products more intuitively."

After hearing this, Minister Xu was so excited that he wanted to shout a few times. This was too advanced. He immediately notified the Security Department and drove to escort the model and the factory drawings. He didn't even go back to the Ministry of Industry and went directly to Haizi to report on his work.
