Chapter 545: Lao Liu's Request (Asking for Subscription)
For the result of successfully desalising a fishbowl of seawater in 15 minutes, even Chen Hao, the initiator, felt inexplicably excited and excited about this achievement.
More than excitement!
At the moment when he tasted the sweetness of the water in the fish tank, he began to dance in the factory like a sheep.
Because even he didn't expect that he was just transplanting more than 500 kinds of water purification genes into [Sewage Weed], and he could actually strengthen the purification ability of aquatic weeds to the point that even seawater can be desalinated!
With the purifying power of just one aquatic plant, the undrinkable seawater in the ocean can be desalinated into food-grade fresh water that is as clear as a mountain spring.
If this news spreads, those large desalination plants in the Middle East will not be shocked to collapse one after another.
Fuck it!
This is the core technology that smashes people's jobs!
You must know that the cost of fresh water production in the current international mainstream desalination plants is quite high.
Because when using the reverse osmosis membrane method, electricity must be used, as well as some chemical consumption.
One ton of fresh water is treated, and the general power consumption is about 4 kWh, which is converted into the local electricity price, according to the electricity fee of 0.6 yuan/kWh, plus the chemical consumption of 0.5 yuan per ton, the theoretical price of 3-4 yuan/ton can indeed be obtained.
Eldest brother!
And that's just the theoretical price!
The operation of a desalination plant is inseparable from the cost of labor, maintenance, and the replacement of reverse osmosis membranes.
In addition, the electricity price in each region is different, and the cost price of one ton of seawater desalination in the world is generally about 4-5 yuan/ton.
Take our own seawater desalination technology as an example, because the technology started late, there is a technical gap compared with foreign countries, and there is no large-scale seawater desalination demand in China, the cost of water production per ton is as high as about 7-8 yuan.
Fortunately, our freshwater resources are not scarce, and seawater desalination technology is generally supplied in special fields, and there is no prospect of large-scale commercial operation.
So not too many people are paying attention to this desalination technology.
After all, the average price of our daily residential water is about 2-3 yuan/ton. Even if it is a little more expensive, commercial water is only 4-5 yuan/ton.
Who would be willing to buy desalinated water that costs 7-8 yuan!
Of course, the Middle Eastern tycoons are not short of money, and their desert land is already seriously short of fresh water.
4-5 yuan/ton of desalinated water is only the production price of local water plants in the Middle East.
When the pipes pass through the waterworks, or the middlemen of water and electricity supply, under the exploitation of profits layer by layer, then the price flowing into the local people may double and rise.
After all, if a person wants to survive in a hot desert area, the first condition is that he cannot do without the important resource of fresh water.
Otherwise, how could the joke on the Internet say: In some parts of the Middle East, the price of fresh water is even more expensive than local gasoline!
Of course, this trend of freshwater being more expensive than oil is about to say goodbye to the stage of history from today.
Because of the newly cultivated [sewage weed] of the turtle, in addition to having a strong ability to remove pollution and purify water, it is also unexpectedly linked to the desalination ability of seawater.
You must know that through several previous tests, Chen Hao already knows the water purification capacity of a single plant [to remove sewage grass], which can play a role in 4,000 tons of water.
According to this data, 1 [sewage weed] can desalinate nearly 4,000 tons of seawater!
Moreover, this desalination process is pollution-free and non-consumption-free, and all costs are controlled in the cultivation and reproduction of [sewage weeds].
For Chen Hao, who has the plant catalysis skill of [Mu Dun Chakra], it is not like a joke to mature batches of [Sewage Grass].
Because from the perspective of the turtle's business acumen, the cost of this seawater desalination has reached his hands, just like the previous large-scale ripening [Aloe Vera], and the cost of raw materials has been infinitely compressed by him to the point of 0.
Once the cost of seawater desalination drops from the international average of 4-5 yuan/ton to a value that tends to 0 indefinitely.
If we only need to calculate the transportation and labor maintenance costs of fresh water, then the ripple effect of this water price is not limited to the Middle East, where desalinated water is widely used.
Even Chen Hao's Huaguo will be affected!
You want to!
At present, the residential water price in Huaguo is about 3 yuan/ton, the cost price from the waterworks is roughly 1 yuan/ton, and the intermediate profit is about 1-2 yuan/ton.
If the desalinated water produced by [sewage weed] is adopted, the cost of the waterworks can be reduced by 100%.
Because compared to those expensive tap water treatment equipment, or seawater desalination equipment, [sewage weed] is very cheap.
With the capacity to process 4,000 tons of seawater per plant, as long as thousands or tens of thousands of plants are planted, it can meet the daily water supply capacity of a medium and large waterworks.
Then when the time comes, the ex-factory price of tap water can even be lowered to the output cost of only labor and pipelines, and the ex-factory price per ton can reach 1 cent, or even 1 cent per ton!
At this time, as long as the residential water price is lowered to 1 yuan, then the intermediate profit can still be maintained at the original level.
The price of water has been lowered, but the waterworks are still profitable.
This kind of good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, but any leader with a little brain is willing to try to promote it on a large scale.
After all, seawater is a raw material that lies in the earth's oceans like no money, as long as you are willing to pump it, take it, and use it for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.
But it's not the same with fresh water!
Just like the tap water that Chinese people drink themselves, the source of the water is drawn from the ecological reserve.
Every year, a lot of manpower and material resources are spent to build reservoirs, build waterworks, or send people to protect and maintain the environment of the water source area to prevent pollution at the source.
Therefore, after confirming that [Sewage Removal Grass] accidentally has the ability to desalinate seawater, Chen Hao's brains are boiling!
Because he felt that the business opportunity he accidentally opened up was no longer as simple and ordinary as selling [sewage weed] to carry out sewage treatment.
As long as Chen Hao is willing, he can even participate in the competition for freshwater, the lifeblood of mankind.
Brothers!
This is a freshwater resource!
As long as it's an individual, it's inseparable from water!
Especially in places where water is scarce, the thirst for clean fresh water is unimaginable.
In the Middle East and Africa, where there is a shortage of water and serious pollution of the source water, there is a market for [sewage weed].
The most important thing is that [Sewage Removal Weed] not only has the ability to desalinate seawater, but also can purify water at the same time, and even the most basic steps of drinking water filtration and disinfection are saved.
No wonder the turtle keeps dancing and shouting, "Get rich!"
Because this kind of plant product comparable to alien technology, once it is put into the market, the gold-absorbing ability it brings is definitely three points more terrifying than products like [Aloe Vera] [Scar Sanqi].
