C1475 Visiting the Coal Oil Factory
Han Country had become a petroleum exporter country. This happened much earlier than in history. This also meant that with Qin Guan's help, the economy of the country had started to soar.
There were still a few years left before the collapse of Bear Country. It would allow the motherland to become completely powerful. At that time, the people of Y Country would view their own country as a potential threat. They had no choice but to treat their own strength with caution.
At that time, they would keep a low profile and let the people of Y Country play Counter Strike first. When it was over, the powerful aircraft carrier fleet of Han Country would be sailing on the ocean of the world. At that time, would they still need to be afraid of the people of Y Country?
Qin Guan was waiting for that era to come. Of course, if they were to rise quickly, perhaps the people of Y Country would stop playing Counter Strike.
These were all matters of the future. Now, it was better to see the progress of the coal oil conversion in Rainbow Country.
Today, General Dennis continued to accompany Qin Guan. With him accompanying him, Qin Guan's tour went quite smoothly.
"Our country is the same as your country, it also has more coal and less oil." General Dennis said, "So, since 1955, we have been trying to turn coal into oil."
In the car, General Tonnies introduced the knowledge to Qin Guan. Now, the car gradually entered the factory of Sayer Company. The high equipment looked like Li was modern.
"President Qin, welcome." After hearing the news, Tony, the head of the company, was also very excited. He had been waiting there for a long time.
"I just came to take a look." "After all, I don't know about these things," Qin Guan said.
"We will explain it clearly to you. Come with us to take a look first." Tony said and brought everyone to the modern industrial equipment. From the outside, it was a huge cylindrical container.
"The most important equipment here is this lava-bed reactor. We are using the technology of Hans Country, which contains 2052 50mm tubes. With cobalt catalyst and a series of catalytic reactions, the finished product can be obtained. The main products include gasoline, diesel, and wax, as well as other industrial products. " Tony began his introduction.
He tried to simplify it as much as possible, not using complex chemical reaction equations. In short, the basic principle was to catalyze the reaction through catalysts, so that coal could be converted.
Qin Guan nodded. This principle was not difficult. Moreover, it was introduced through Hans Country. Back in During World War II, Hans Country developed the coal and oil conversion technology. Over the years, the technology was still developing.
"Now, our annual production here is 320,000 tons. However, we are also preparing to build a new factory to increase the annual production to seven million tons." Tony said proudly.
"Is the investment high?" Qin Guan asked.
"The initial investment is relatively high. However, after two years of operation, you will be able to recover your capital. After that, it will be mainly the profits. " Tony said, "We can produce this energy ourselves, and we can effectively avoid being blocked by the outside world."
This is the most important thing, after all, these energies Other than being able to be used for civilian use, the outside world could use these excuses at any time. They were banned from exporting oil. If there was no sufficient energy supply, then... It could fail at any time. Back in the Hans Country, if there was sufficient oil, then... They might have been able to fight their way to the Bear Capital a long time ago.
"That's right. We also need such a factory. We hope that we can bring in a full set of technologies from here. We will build the same factory in our country, and the annual production capacity will reach seven million tons!"
Now, the country's oil demand would soon enter the scale of a billion tons. If they could build a coal oil factory that produced seven million tons a year, it would greatly reduce the country's demand for oil from the outside world.
Of course, Qin Guan was not stupid. If the oil in the outside world was cheap and cheap, they would naturally be mainly imported oil. Wouldn't it be stupid to not buy the cheap oil?
When it was cheap in the outside world, they would buy in large quantities. When the oil price in the outside world was high, they would use the oil themselves. Make your own production and adjust it this way. At the same time, once the oil transportation channel outside is damaged, in short, he could not let the oil block the progress of the motherland's economic development.
"President Qin, there is one more thing. I need to make it clear to you in advance." Just when Qin Guan had decided to import it, Tony said, "We use this coal and oil conversion process to produce fuel. It is not completely suitable. If the vehicle is used for a long time, it will cause serious accumulation of carbon, which is an unavoidable problem. "
After Tony said that, Qin Guan suddenly understood something. In the future, even if the country used a large amount of biofuel, it would not be used in large quantities on coal oil. The main reason was that there was a problem with the fuel.
There was no problem with using it for a short period of time, but if it was used for a long time, the engine would be damaged.
The other party was absolutely honest with him. Qin Guan nodded his head hard. "Even if there is such a flaw, we still need to bring it in."
First, they had to solve the problem first. In any case, they would definitely have it in the future. Even if the oil produced was not supplied to vehicles, there were still other aspects that could be used.
Just like the ethanol gasoline in the future, even though they knew that it would affect the engine and cause the power to drop, wasn't the country still promoting it vigorously?
"I believe that there must be a solution. As our technology increases and the technology advances, it will become better and better." Qin Guan said.
Tony nodded. "That's right. We are also improving our technology. At the same time, other than using coal to transform, we can also use natural gas to transform it."
Natural gas! Tony's words opened up a new train of thought for Qin Guan. Compared to coal, natural gas was definitely a clean energy source. Looking at the heavy cards in the future, there must be a variety of discharge standards. If they did not meet the standards, they would be eliminated. However, natural gas heavy trucks were unimpeded.2
Compared to the domestic oil resources, the natural gas resources were also extremely rich. Moreover, the exploitation of natural gas was much easier than the exploitation of oil.
A window opened in front of Qin Guan's eyes. He could bring in two sets of equipment. One would be placed in Grassland City and the other would be in the Western Province. This would be able to alleviate the oil shortage on a large scale.
Natural gas could already be burned. There were taxis that could directly burn natural gas, and there were also natural gas heavy trucks. Why did they need to convert it into gasoline and diesel?
Of course, this was necessary. With this conversion, the land would be more convenient to transport and use.
