Chapter five hundred and twenty second complete defeat
"With such a fast filtration speed, this can never be a nanofiltration membrane!"
Bernice shouted loudly with a bit of despair.
The filtration membrane relies on the micropores on the membrane to achieve filtration. The smaller the pore size, the smaller the material particles that pass through the filtration. At the same time, under a certain water pressure, the penetration rate of water will also decrease accordingly. According to theoretical calculations
,,And this is only a theoretical limit and cannot be achieved in practice. The filtration membrane provided by Daqin Group has a permeability flux of at least 20 or more, which is completely unscientific!
Bernice is a technical person. Of course, he can also imagine that the Chinese may have mastered a completely different filtration principle, which can greatly improve the filtration efficiency while taking into account the filtration effect. However, now he
There is no way out. He cannot admit that his skills are inferior to others, so he can only pour some dirty water on the opponent first, and then hope that the opponent will make some mistakes, and then use these mistakes to completely deny the opponent's products.
The experimenters were not affected by Bernice. Seeing that the filter membrane had begun to work, they took samples step by step to test the quality of the filtered water.
"Surfactant,……"
"Oil particles,..."
"Salt content is acceptable..."
The results were reported one after another, and everyone present fell into silence. Everyone turned their attention to Bernice in unison, with some unspeakable emotions in their eyes.
Daqin Group's filtration membrane is indeed slightly inferior to Warren Group in terms of filtration quality, but it is still within the qualified range. In terms of the self-purification ability of the sea, the concentration of some chemical residues in wastewater has increased by parts per million.
A few times will not bring any ecological consequences at all. The filtration efficiency of Daqin Group's filtration membrane is hundreds of times that of Warren Group. This is crucial.
"Gentlemen, what do you think of this test result?" Henlock broke the silence first. He is the Minister of Ecology and the person in charge of the entire pollution cleanup project. The final decision is made by him. In fact, watching
After passing this test, he already understood how he should choose. But he still had to seek everyone's opinions first to avoid any criticism from the Warren Group.
"I think the super filtration membrane provided by China is perfect." Flandin said first. Regarding such a test result, he was the most happy except for several people from Daqin Group. This is not only because of the filtration membrane of Daqin Group.
They solved the problem of oil pollution cleanup, and also because they caused the proud Europeans to stumble hard. As a wealthy man in the Middle East, Flandin can feel the disdain of Europeans towards him, and this time he can finally borrow
The hands of the Chinese have given themselves a bad breath.
"If the performance of the super filtration membrane can remain stable, I think it will be of great help in cleaning up the oil pollution this time." Gemo expressed his attitude in a more conservative way.
Bessborough turned to Qin Hai and asked: "Mr. Qin, how long is the service life of your super filtration membrane?"
"If it is to deal with ordinary oil pollution, it will take about five days." Xia Yangjie answered this question for Qin Hai.
"Only five days?" Crowden, who was standing aside dumbfounded, shouted proudly as if he had grasped a life-saving straw. "The service life of our filter membrane is 8 to 12 weeks."
"That's not surprising." Qin Hai glanced at Crowden and said calmly.
"What's not strange?" Crowden asked in confusion. Before he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something and his face suddenly turned red.
Isn't it strange? The filtration efficiency of other people's filter membranes is 100 times that of yours. Although its service life is shorter, the amount of sewage it filters is far more than yours. The scrapping of filter membranes is often not due to damage, but because of filtration.
Finally, the residue adheres to the surface of the filter membrane, causing the filter membrane to lose its filtering ability. The amount of residue is obviously directly related to the amount of filtered sewage.
"So, there is another question, what is the unit price of your filter membrane?" Bessborough asked in as calm a tone as possible. He also knew that the overall situation had been decided. All his previous disdain for Qin Hai became useless in the face of the experimental results.
Now that he has become the butt of a joke, all he can do now is try to downplay the matter and maintain the image of a "fair" expert.
"The sales price of this filter membrane is US$70 per square meter. If the purchase quantity exceeds 100,000 square meters, it can be reduced to US$60." Xia Yangjie replied.
"What's the price of Warren Group's filter membrane?" Bessborough turned to Bernice again and asked.
"20 US dollars per square meter." Bernice replied in a frustrated tone. Considering the difference in the amount of sewage that the two filter membranes can handle, Warren Company's price of 20 US dollars per square meter and Daqin Group's price of 70 US dollars per square meter
In comparison, there is no advantage at all.
The filtration efficiency is not good, the durability is not good, and the price is not competitive. In this competition, Warren Group can be said to have completely failed.
If we had known this, why did we come to Le Havre? Bernice kept blaming himself. Thinking that the person who informed them of the news was Germer, Bernice couldn't help feeling a little resentful towards Germer.
However, if you think about it carefully, Gemo did not ask them to come forward, but just told them that there was such a thing. It was obvious that the Warren Group underestimated the technical level of the Chinese, so they came all the way to Le
Havre comes and waits for someone to slap him in the face.
Bessborough pulled Henlock and several other experts aside and whispered. When Henlock appeared in front of Qin Hai again, the smile on his face already looked very kind.
"Mr. Qin, in the name of the French Ministry of Ecology, I formally propose a cooperation intention to your company. We hope that your company can provide us with 200,000 square meters of super filtration membrane in the next month for oil pollution treatment on beaches and seas. I don’t know.
Can your company provide these products?" Henlock said.
"However, we will organize production immediately to ensure that it does not affect your oil pollution cleanup work." Qin Hai replied solemnly.
"Okay, I hope we can have a happy cooperation." Henlock stretched out his hand to Qin Hai and said.
Qin Hai smiled, held Henlock's hand, and said, "Happy cooperation!"
Bessborough also came forward and said with a smile: "Mr. Qin, you have done a very great thing. The amazing super filtration membrane you produced will completely change the mode of offshore oil pollution treatment.
I hope you can expand the production scale of filter membranes, because there will be many places around the world waiting to use your products."
"Thank you Mr. Bessborough for your compliment. I hope Mr. Bessborough can do more publicity for us so that our products can better serve the protection of the world's environment." Qin Hai said politely to Bessborough, seeming to have completely forgotten.
Overcome the discord the two had had before.
A deal was finalized in a harmonious atmosphere. Henlock, Flandin, Bessborough and others all gathered around Qin Hai and chatted happily. In fact, they had no principled conflict with Qin Hai.
, Qin Hai's products can help them solve their problems, so they naturally accepted this enviable young Chinese.
As for Bernice and Crowden, they could no longer stay in this situation. They quietly left the experimental site with dark faces.
That night, Franding once again held a grand banquet to entertain all the officials and experts who participated in the oil pollution cleanup work. Naturally, the guest of honor was Qin Hai and several other Chinese people. At the banquet, Franding, in addition to greeting everyone at the beginning,
After everyone had a toast, they stood together with Qin Hai for the rest of the time, talking and laughing in English.
"Mr. Qin, you saved my company, you are my best friend." Flandin said this to Qin Hai for the first time.
"Prince Flandin, you are too polite. It is our honor that our products can solve some problems for the prince." Qin Hai said with a smile.
Flandin patted Qin Hai on the shoulder and said: "No, no, no, Mr. Qin, you don't know how important this matter is to me. Without your super filtration membrane, I'm afraid I would go bankrupt. Mr. Qin
, as a friend, I am willing to do something to repay your help. Is there anything you need me to do?"
"It seems...it's nothing, right?" Qin Hai said in embarrassment. It seems a bit inappropriate for a prince to cry and shout that he must do something to repay himself, but he can't think of anything that he needs help from.
It means giving face.
Flandin was obviously a little frustrated. He said, "Aren't you willing to give me a chance?"
"Well... let me think about it." Qin Hai held the wine glass and began to think attentively, "Your Highness, the filter membrane we produce can be used for seawater desalination in addition to chemical sewage treatment. I wonder if your country has any
What is the demand in this regard?”
"Desalination? This is so important to us!" Flandin said excitedly, "You know, Saudi Arabia is a country that is short of water, and desalination is of strategic significance to us. Our current desalination plants are all made of
It is built by European companies. If you can provide desalination technology that is no less than European, I can help the government cooperate with you in this field."
"Our technology is no less than that of the Europeans. As we have seen today, we are stronger than the Europeans in some aspects." Qin Hai said confidently.
"Okay, then let's make it a deal. After I deal with the oil spill, I will return to China immediately to contact you about this matter. I look forward to seeing you again in Riyadh," Flandin said.
Xia Yangjie, who was standing not far away watching their conversation, sighed and whispered to Yu Lihong beside him: "I am really convinced. In just a short time, Mr. Qin has negotiated a big business again. If we can make it happen,
If Saudi Arabia takes over the desalination project, it will be a major project worth at least a billion dollars."
"Haha, I have long been convinced. With Mr. Qin, we will never have to worry about being idle." Yu Lihong raised his glass with a smile and said to Xia Yangjie. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature for better updates of the novel. Faster!
