Chapter 480: The Cost of Burning Money
"How do you solve the problem of cost?" asked Bai Mimi. As Hui Linsi's right-hand man, she has good research and development skills, but she can't solve commercial problems. Seeing Luo Luoke frowning, Bai Mimi's heart was bottomless.
"I asked Membo to look for an alternative material for the purifying filter, the cheaper the better...... But the growth of crops cannot be fooled, if the water quality is not up to standard, the crops will definitely die. ”
The two of them did not have the ability to fool the research institute, no matter what the crops were produced, even if they wilted, they had to bring the samples back to the research institute for analysis. It's clear what went wrong in any link.
"Otherwise, let's meet Kaloo and see if he has this low-cost filter production process in his hands. ”
Luo Luoke had no choice but to follow Bai Mimi's advice. As the saying goes, three stinkers top one Zhuge Liang, but helplessly, they are two people now, so they can't think of any good way.
After receiving a call from Loloco, Kaloo contacted the manufacturing company controlled by Shoreline Union Bank, and found a company that produced seawater purification filters. Hurriedly brought the materials over and handed them to Luo Luoke.
"Look at these. Kaloo placed the documents on Loroco's desk, and the two of them were left in the room.
"Graphene, bioactivated carbon, asbestos netting, diversion polypropylene film......" Luo Luoke looked at the documents in his hand and couldn't help muttering. In general, the production process of this company's seawater purification filter element is similar to that of the research institute. How much does this cost?
"What's the price?"
"Each 270 US knife has a service life of about 700 hours for the full flow path. ”
Loroko's brow furrowed even tighter. If you replace it once a month, the cost is not low. Moreover, the filter element they produce is a family pack, and according to the caliber of the current diversion pipeline, dozens of them should be used at a time. The whole pipeline needs about ten such desalination links.
No, no, no!
"Is there anything that doesn't fit? I can get them to adjust the production process. Looking at Luo Luoke's face, Kaloo hurriedly said.
"Forget it, it's not their problem. ”
"So, the desert project is having trouble?"
Luo Luoke talked about the cost of desalination to Kaloo, and Kaloo understood. The first step of the long march encountered a hurdle. I am a scientific research layman, and I have no say in this issue. I had to look at Luo Luoke worried, there was no way.
"Well, I'll give you a blueprint tomorrow, and you can buy me some other building materials according to the plan. ”
"Okay, no problem. ”
After being silent for a long time, Luo Luoke finally spoke. Carlo saw that Loroco was in a low mood, and he was not in the mood to call him to eat, drink and have fun. After taking the matter down, he hurriedly said goodbye and left.
Immediately after that, Bai Mimi came in.
"How's the discussion going, is there any progress?"
"It's all there, see for yourself. Loroco pointed to the materials on the table that Kaloo had brought with him.
Bai Mimi is also an understanding person, and you can know the approximate cost when you look at the materials. It's no fun.
Originally, the production plant that Kaloo found was supposed to make filter material for purifiers for drinking water. It can be installed in a home, or in a water company's plumbing. The amount of seawater is too large, and the pollution level is much higher than that of tap water. It's really inappropriate.
"He's just gone?"
"Why don't you sit down and worry with us?" Loroko shook his head, "Let's do it ourselves...... I pondered the distillation and desalination equipment and planned to design a simple set of my own. ”
As he spoke, Luo Luoke took out a pencil and a few pieces of A4 white paper. A rough outline is drawn on it.
"Prepare a low-lying area on the shore and bring in seawater, and then make a huge roof out of translucent plastic or glass on top of it. When the water is exposed to the sun, it turns into water vapor, which condenses on the ceiling, and then collects it and uses it as irrigation ......," Luo Luoke explained as he drew a picture, giving a general description of the entire distillation unit.
Of course, Bai Mimi understands that this is exactly how to obtain drinking water when surviving in the wild. The water produced in this way has less impurities and less consumption, and the only drawback is that the yield is also very small. Although there is plenty of sunshine and sea water on the seashore, it takes a lot of fresh water to irrigate crops.
"Use the two together, otherwise, the cost of dilution will not be reduced. At the very least, it is reasonable to make sure that the entire desert planting does not lose money. ”
"Let Memanbo choose a site and make the area of the roof for collecting distilled water as large as possible. ”
Loroko immediately called Mambo. Then, the two of them started to work on the details of the design drawings in front of the computer, trying to get the drawings done overnight, and then asked Kaloo to prepare the materials.
Fortunately, this is in the early stages of the construction of the project, and all the accounts can be revised by themselves, and it is very simple to calculate the cost of the project elsewhere.
As for Xue Weiqi and Xue Weilai next to the two of them, they don't care about technical things. As long as Luo Luoke and Bai Mimi's personal safety is not a problem, most of their tasks will be completed.
Memampo is so efficient that he is now more important than the local officials in the port city. Who let the desert reclamation project invest so much money here, Luo Luoke and Bai Mimi usually don't deal with local departments, and they are all handled by Mei Manbo.
In the hearts of the locals, he is a living god of wealth.
Kaloo also knew that Ye Chen was now in the commercial grain market. He sent all the difficulties encountered by Luo Luoke's side to Ye Chen's mailbox. After all, this is a problem encountered by the Ice and Snow Business Group, and it also makes Ye Chen relieved and continues to develop in this field.
"There's good news from the Saharin Desert, you hurry up and go into my mailbox to take a look!" Early in the morning, Ye Chen pushed open the door of Ling Feiyan's office and said with a spring breeze on his face.
Ling Feiyan opened the email, read it, and felt that it was a windfall. No one expected that such a strong scientific research capability as the Ice and Snow Business Group would encounter the threshold in the first step of the desert reclamation project. Is it that everyone has touted them too much, so that people have this illusion.
Maybe Hui Linsi and Noxijie are just that.
