Chapter 14 Phosphate Nitrate Fertilizers
"This bastard boy, it's noon, and he hasn't come back yet, is it possible that I can't sleep at noon? I'm so! Fu Zhenbang stood by the window, looked out, looked impatient, and said to himself.
Before, Fu Zhenbang was so tired, after Fu Xin escaped, he also yelled like that, and then his mind was relieved, and the sleepiness came up, lying on the desk, Fu Zhenbang fell asleep.
At this moment, the blazing sunlight slipped in from outside the window and stared directly at Fu Zhenbang's eyes, so Fu Zhenbang also woke up.
"Hehe, I said Lao Fu, don't worry, I guess, your son must be going to eat with my tomboy and my son-in-law at this time! As for you, let's have lunch now. When they have eaten and had enough, they will come back. Jiang Haiyang was holding a bowl of rice with a pair of chopsticks on top of it, and there was a smorgasbord of mouth-watering dishes around him. Walked in from the door with a smile, then stuffed the bowl into Fu Zhenbang's hand and smiled calmly.
"Alas, Director Jiang, how embarrassed is this to let you send food over, this is really ......" Fu Zhenbang did not refuse, took the rice brought by Jiang Haiyang, and said with some "embarrassment".
"I said you just eat, our brothers have known each other for so many years, you are really the same! I see you as a brother, but you see me as a superior, you are really hypocritical.
Besides, even if I am your superior, but now you and I depend on life and death, and Secretary Chen resolutely disagrees with the project you are tackling now, so once something goes wrong, whether it is you, I will finish it! What happened to my hope of coming to visit me now with a bowl of rice? Jiang Haiyang said with some "unhappiness".
In fact, Fu Xin's previous life was indeed like this, if Jiang Haiyang hadn't tried his best to speak to Fu Zhenbang, maybe Fu Zhenbang would have been put on a hat that damaged national property. After all, it takes money to do technical research, and if it doesn't succeed, in this period, the end is not like this.
But even so, Fu Zhenbang and Jiang Haiyang did not have a good time later. Jiang Haiyang was transferred away, transferred to a pension position, and worked for a lifetime, Fu Zhenbang became a despised and overlooked deputy director in the factory until the factory closed down.
"By the way, Lao Fu, how are the technical difficulties overcome?" Seeing that Fu Zhenbang was chewing slowly, Jiang Haiyang also felt that it was okay, so he asked about the progress of the project.
Previously, out of trust in Fu Zhenbang, he didn't care too much about the progress of the project.
Therefore, Jiang Haiyang is not very clear about the progress of the project, so it is impossible to talk about dealing with the new "charcoal in the snow". He knew about Fu Xin before, and he also learned from his daughter Jiang Cheng that Fu Xin was back, so he was just in the same mood as a father, who had not yet taken a good look at his son's return from going out, and was anxious.
As for Fu Zhenbang sleeping here, it was Jiang Haiyang who got the news, and the meaning in the news was that Fu Zhenbang was so tired that he fell asleep, and he, as a leader, happened to come and see and care about his "subordinates".
"I encountered some difficulties in the first two days, and I have not been able to solve them, and I don't have a clue now. Fortunately, Fu Xin's kid didn't embarrass me when he went out this time, he learned some skills and brought me hope. Fu Zhenbang stopped his chopsticks and said.
When Jiang Haiyang heard this, he was immediately a little confused, frowned, and asked, "Oh? What's going on? I see that the plan is written in detail, according to the above, it should not be very difficult to operate and practice, even if there are difficulties, with the level of your eighth-level worker, it should be no problem, right? Also, didn't your son Fu Xin go to the army, why does this matter have anything to do with him? ”
"Alas, it's all my fault, I was too naïve at the beginning, I thought that people abroad would be able to industrialize the production of nitrate and phosphorus fertilizer in the early thirties, and now it's the end of the seventies, and it's about the eighties, and we have a big technical gap with them, but after so many years, time to make up for the gap, and we have to hang up to be able to get it out, but, alas, I'm really too naïve, and in the end something went wrong." Fu Zhenbang said a little "decadently", and after speaking, he took a few bites of food to relieve the depression in his heart.
……
Phosphate nitrate fertilizer began to be industrially produced in the early thirties of the twentieth century. Since 1945, production has developed rapidly, and it is relatively concentrated in Europe.
There are many methods for the production of phosphate nitrate fertilizers, the simplest of which is the nitrosuperphosphate method, which has been used in Switzerland for many years.
It is similar to the production process of superphosphate, with a concentration of 65%~70% nitric acid in the mixer to decompose phosphate rock powder, the product contains about 8% nitrogen, phosphorus pentoxide 16%.
The advantage of this method is that the process is relatively simple, and the disadvantage is that a large amount of nitrogen dioxide escapes, pollutes the environment, and the product has serious hygroscopicity.
Because the Hongxing Fertilizer Plant mainly produces superphosphate, which is a simple fertilizer, so if the equipment is replaced with the production of phosphate nitrate fertilizer, there is not much need to be re-invested, so Fu Zhenbang also chose to overcome the compound fertilizer of phosphate nitrate. This plan was reluctantly approved by the factory.
But what Fu Zhenbang didn't expect was that the idea was very good, and if it succeeded, the future would be bright. But what he thought was too simple, in fact, before submitting this plan in advance, Fu Zhenbang did experiments, and in the experiments, he did prepare phosphorus nitrate fertilizer.
However, after all, the laboratory is different from industrial production, and there are many more factors that need to be considered in industrial production than in the laboratory. Fu Zhenbang was so excited that he didn't think too deeply about it, so he handed over the plan and didn't take into account the difficulties encountered in industrial production.
The main problem he is facing now is how to achieve industrial production quickly and well. One of the most important is how to remove calcium. Because, decomposing phosphate rock powder in the mixer with a concentration of 65%~70% nitric acid will produce a mixture such as calcium nitrate, and this calcium nitrate is the problem.
Although, calcium nitrate is a typical fast-acting foliar fertilizer, it works more smoothly on acidic soils, and the calcium in the fertilizer neutralizes the acidity in the soil.
It is especially convenient for regenerative fertilization of winter crops, additional fertilization of cereals, fertilization of alfalfa growth that consumes too much, sugar beets, feed beets, poppies, corn, green feed mixtures and additional fertilization that effectively eliminates the nutritional deficiency of plant calcium.
However, paddy fields should not be applied because calcium nitrate belongs to nitrate nitrogen and is easily leached with water. The Hongxing Fertilizer Plant is located in the south of the Yangtze River, and the fertilizers produced are mainly supplied to the Jiangnan area, and there are many paddy fields in the south of the Yangtze River, so it is imperative to remove calcium nitrate.
……
"What should I do, if I can't do it, you and I will be done!" When Jiang Haiyang heard this, he was anxious.
"Hey, no, you're saying that Fu Xin's little guy has a way? Let's hear it, how does he have a way? Jiang Haiyang also seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and said eagerly patting his head.
"That kid, it's a little promising, I don't embarrass him." Speaking of this, Fu Zhenbang saw that Jiang Haiyang was a little reluctant to listen to his exclamation, and his face looked very eager to know the solution, so he stopped sighing, and said directly: "Some time ago, didn't our country teach the disobedient small country in the south a lesson, Fu Xin, this guy got the opportunity and went to the battlefield, he happened to pick up a notebook left by the Americans on the battlefield of South Vietnam, which happened to record the manufacturing process of compound fertilizer. ”
"No, Lao Fu, even if he picks up a notebook, it stands to reason that he should hand it in, you don't know the three major disciplines and eight points of the army, this little guy can't be a private hiding!" Speaking of this, Jiang Haiyang frowned.
He was transferred from the army, so his thoughts in his mind were relatively rigorous, and he deeply hated the act of secretly hiding war trophies, which violated the three major disciplines and eight points of attention.
"No, how could it be, if he dared to do this, Lao Tzu would have to beat him to death, he just looked through it before handing it in." Fu Zhenbang explained.
When Fu Zhenbang said this, Jiang Haiyang's face eased a lot, but he immediately realized something and said: "It's not right, you said that the notebook is American, since this is American, it won't be Chinese, it should be English, Fu Xin can understand it, remember?" ”
"I said Lao Jiang, I was not happy when I heard what you said, so I have a little confidence in my bastard son!" Fu Zhenbang said with a "displeased" look, and at this time, the bowl in his hand had been emptied by him.
"Hehe, look at you, don't call me Director Jiang now?" Jiang Haiyang also ignored Fu Zhenbang's "displeasure" and said jokingly.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I said it wrong, Director Jiang ......" Fu Zhenbang was not to be outdone, and put the word "Director Jiang" on the long run.
These two people, although they have a superior-subordinate relationship, and Jiang Haiyang has always pressed Fu Zhenbang, but the two of them have grown up together, Fu Xin's grandfather, that is, Fu Zhenbang's father, and Jiang Haiyang's father, that is, Jiang Cheng's grandfather, are old comrades-in-arms who survived the battlefield together.
After the liberation, Jiang Haiyang's father did not return to his hometown, but together with Fu Zhenbang's father, he retired from the army and came to this Yicheng area.
Therefore, there is no generation gap or estrangement between superiors and subordinates between Jiang Haiyang and Fu Zhenbang. Although this Fu Zhenbang always calls Jiang Haiyang and adds an official name.
……
Jiang Haiyang suddenly thought of something, patted his head, and suddenly said: "It's still not right, this thing is mainly common in Europe, and Fu Xin's kid picked up the Americans, are you sure that there is a content of nitrate and phosphorus fertilizer on it?" ”
"Uh......" This time, Fu Zhenbang, who had been immersed in joy before, woke up, yes, phosphate nitrate fertilizer is mainly produced in Europe, and there are so many types of compound fertilizer, this Fu Xin saw it, it is not necessarily the content of phosphorus nitrate fertilizer, in case not, thinking of this, Fu Zhenbang didn't dare to think about it.
"Alas...... I had no choice but to wait for the kid to come back and ask. I hope that the chairman will bless him in the spirit of heaven, and there will be nitrate and phosphorus fertilizer content on it. Fu Zhenbang sighed, squatted on the chair, and said gloomily.
