Chapter five hundred and eighteen super filtration membrane
"Who is this guy?"
"I've never seen it before. It doesn't look like an expert from the Ministry of Ecology."
"Of course he's not an expert. Didn't you see how young he is? He came with Professor Germer. Maybe he is Professor Germer's doctoral student?"
"You still have an oriental face. Could it be that you are Japanese?"
"No, no, no, Japanese people don't look like this. I guess he should be Chinese."
"Chinese? No wonder..."
There was a buzzing discussion in the venue. All the experts had the same idea. They all believed that Qin Hai's proposal was whimsical. Let me ask, how could a young man come up with an idea that no one has thought of? It's obvious that he can't think of anything.
I don’t understand, and I don’t know how to restrain myself.
Bessborough, who believed that he had the absolute authority on marine oil pollution treatment, spoke with a bit of dissatisfaction in his tone. It was more of a question than a question:
"Sir, do you know how much water is used to wash these beaches? If this water is not discharged into the sea, where else can it be discharged?"
The basic idea of dealing with oil pollution on the beach is to first use chemicals to decompose the oil pollution so that it loses its viscosity and becomes smaller molecules, and then washes it with sea water to wash these decomposed products into the sea. Because
The area of oil pollution is very large, and a lot of chemicals are used. Therefore, the seawater used to wash the beach is also calculated in millions of tons. Dozens of high-horsepower water pumps are needed to pump water and wash it repeatedly from top to bottom.
If there is only a small amount of seawater, it can naturally be recycled in some way and then disposed of. But it is very difficult to recycle such a large amount of water. How many giant water tanks would it take to accommodate such a large amount of water?
Wastewater?
Qin Hai was well prepared for Bessborough's question. If the plan he proposed was unanimously agreed upon by everyone, it would be a strange thing. He smiled and replied: "It's very simple. First filter it into harmless clean water."
, and then discharged into the sea.”
"Filtering?" Gemo frowned and asked Qin Hai: "Qin, can you explain in detail how to filter these oil decomposition products from seawater."
"Use filter membranes for filtration." Qin Hai said, "In sea areas where oil pollution is to be treated, a filter membrane is used to make a fence. After the seawater that washes the beach flows into the sea, it is blocked by this fence and can only flow out through the filter membrane.
The sea water that comes out is harmless and clean water."
"Filter membrane? That's a way." Gemo nodded slightly.
The so-called filter membrane is a general term for a large class of membrane materials with filtering capabilities. Depending on the filtering substances, filter membranes can include thousands of types. Using filter membranes to purify sewage or purify exhaust gas is not a new technology.
, there were relatively mature products as early as the 1960s, and in the following decades, various new filter membranes emerged one after another.
The working principle of the filter membrane is to allow the liquid or gas that needs to be filtered to pass through the filter membrane. The impurities in it cannot pass through the gaps of the filter membrane because of larger particles or other special properties, thus playing a filtration role.
Qin Hai's idea is to use a filter membrane as a barrier on the coast. Let the toxic cleaning wastewater pass through the filter membrane and then be discharged into the sea. This will avoid the harm of the wastewater to marine life. If this plan is feasible, it will also be used to clean up oil pollution on the sea surface.
efficient.
Of course, Bessborough also knew about filter membranes, which are sometimes used in marine oil pollution treatment. Hearing that Qin Hai’s plan was this, he had a look of disdain on his face and said, "You
I know the filter membrane I'm talking about, but as far as I know, the filtering capacity of the filter membrane is very limited. It can process only a dozen tons of wastewater per hour, or at most dozens of tons, while the wastewater generated by cleaning the beach may be as high as millions.
tons, have you calculated how long it will take to process all this wastewater?"
Qin Hai still smiled and said: "Mr. Bessborough, you are talking about ordinary filter membranes. If there is a filter membrane that can achieve higher filtration efficiency, can this problem be solved?"
"Higher efficiency filtration membrane? Sorry, I've never heard of it." Bessborough shrugged and said.
"This is not surprising, because this super filtration membrane has just been put into production and has not yet been put on the market on a large scale." Qin Hai responded.
"Then how did you know?" Bessborough asked subconsciously.
Qin Hai pointed to his nose and said: "Because this material is produced by my company, the filtration efficiency of the super filtration membrane we produce can reach more than 100 times that of ordinary filtration membranes."
"Which company are you talking about?" Bessborough asked.
"China Daqin Industrial Group Jintang Chemical Materials Company." Qin Hai replied in a clear voice.
As soon as he said this sentence, there was another commotion in the venue. Who are these people? They are advertising emergency response measures. Some super filtration membrane that everyone has never heard of is actually produced by a Chinese company.
Daqin Group and Jintang are names I have never heard of. How can such a company produce materials with such excellent performance?
"Mr. Henlock, I know nothing about the company this gentleman mentioned or the materials he introduced, so I will not comment on the plan proposed by this gentleman." Bessborough turned to Henlock and said
A sign of abstention was made.
Although Bessborough said that he would not express an opinion, his expression itself represented an opinion, that is, he did not believe what Qin Hai said. Otherwise, he should at least express that he could try this plan. After all, everyone
When you are at a loss, any possible solution to the problem is worth a try.
Everyone present could understand Bessborough's subtext, and they were silent for a while, waiting for Henlock to express his position. In everyone's minds, they were also skeptical about Qin Hai's statement. After all, the filtration membrane technology has its own advantages.
There is a certain threshold. China, which has always had no say in this field, suddenly claims that it has developed a super filtration membrane with a filtration capacity a hundred times stronger than other filtration membranes. How can anyone believe this?
"Let me introduce Mr. Qin to everyone." Gemo had to speak. He was the one who brought Qin Hai. Everyone didn't believe Qin Hai, that is, they didn't believe him. If he didn't give an explanation, he might have trouble with these experts in the future.
Even when they get along together, they may be questioned.
"Mr. Qin is the chairman of China Daqin Industrial Group Company, a newly established professional materials company with total assets of US$5 billion. I met Mr. Qin at this International Materials Annual Conference, and his company
The affiliated research institution provided fifteen high-quality conference papers for this annual meeting." Gemo pointed out Qin Hai's identity in the simplest way.
"So, Mr. Germer is confident in the super filtration membrane mentioned by Mr. Qin?" Henlock asked.
Gemo hesitated for a moment and said: "I only have confidence in Mr. Qin's strength. As for the super filtration membrane he mentioned, I haven't seen it, so I can't draw a conclusion."
"So, where are the other gentlemen?" Henlock asked everyone again.
Others at the venue did not have such trust in Qin Haike. A US$5 billion company may be considered a big company in China, but compared with international material giants, it is not ranked at all. In everyone's mind, China
The level of science and technology in China is about the same as that in Africa. If one day someone suddenly tells you that a small country in Africa has invented a space shuttle, the first thought in your mind is probably that you cannot believe it, right?
"Mr. Henlock, I think it is irresponsible to pin the solution on a new material that everyone is unfamiliar with." said a French expert.
"Yes, we shouldn't waste our time discussing such a plan," another expert echoed.
Everyone expressed their opinions one after another. There was only one point of view, and that was that what Qin Hai said was nonsense, and everyone could just ignore it. Gemo listened to what his colleagues said and wanted to argue for Qin Hai.
I didn't know where to start, so I could only turn my head and give Qin Hai an apologetic smile.
Qin Hai still had a calm expression on his face. He was indeed here to promote his super filtration membrane, but he didn't get everyone's trust, which was within his expectation. To reverse the opinions of experts from developed countries,
Concepts are not things that happen overnight. For him, it would be better if this promotion succeeds. If it fails, it is not a loss. The technology of super filtration membrane is there, and sooner or later it will be convincing.
As for the fact that the entire pollution control operation suffered losses because of the rejection of his plan, that has nothing to do with him. If the French are willing to smell the smell of crude oil, just let them smell it for a few more days. What the hell does Qin Hai have to do with him?
However, not all people can be so calm, and Flandin is one of the anxious people. It can be said that he is the one who will be most affected by the efficiency of pollution control. The French government's claims are calculated based on time.
For every additional day of pollution, the compensation will increase by millions. The experts are not anxious, but Flandin has to be anxious.
"Gentlemen, are you sure that there is no new filter membrane in the world that can increase the filtration efficiency by 100 times?" Dredge spoke. He represents Flandin's interests. As long as there is a slight possibility, it is
I have to fight for it.
"As far as I know, there is no such filter membrane." Bessborough said arrogantly. In his heart, he neither looked down upon Qin Hai nor Flandin, so he had no intention of saving face for the other party.
"But the young gentleman just said that they can produce this super filtration membrane, why can't we give it a try?" Dredge said coldly, "Shouldn't we try various possibilities?" (
