Chapter 48 Ways to Reduce Ammonia Consumption
Improving production efficiency is not necessarily the only way to increase productivity!
Another of the most effective ways to do this is to reduce ammonia consumption.
The so-called ammonia consumption is the loss of ammonia in the process of producing nitrogen fertilizer, since ammonia is one of the main components of urea, reducing the loss of ammonia, which is not equivalent to increasing production efficiency and increasing production capacity in disguise!
Zhong Bai immediately rubbed his hands excitedly, if he wanted to talk about ways to reduce ammonia consumption, he could recite dozens of them even with his eyes closed.
However, which method is suitable for the current Shanping County fertilizer plant, then it can't just open your mouth.
"Well, let's recall the production process I watched in the workshop in the past two days, which places can be used as a breakthrough ......" Zhong Bai lay on the table and began to think back seriously.
Reduced clumping urea?
No, although this set of Soviet-style equipment seems very old, at least the occurrence rate of agglomerated urea is still very low, and even meets the production standards of the previous life, and it is estimated that there is little effect in this area.
Further control the liquid level of the ammonium condenser tank?
This doesn't seem to work, Zhong Bai has also carefully checked the situation of the ammonium condenser before, and it is also in place.
So......
Adjust the inlet temperature of low-profile water (ammonium condenser tempering water)?
Thinking of this, Zhong Bai suddenly came to the spirit!
He hadn't checked the detailed records of the low-key water inlet temperature before, and this method was one of the simplest and most immediate measures to reduce ammonia consumption!
Theoretically, the temperature range of low-key water inlet is relatively wide, ranging from 55 degrees to 60 degrees.
The ammonium condenser equipment of each fertilizer plant, because of the different manufacturers and processes, the inlet temperature of the best low-key water is also different, generally the lower the better.
For example, the inlet temperature of low-key water in plant A may be 58 degrees, but in fact, it has to be tested repeatedly to finally conclude that 57.2 degrees is the most efficient temperature.
However, the low-key water of plant B has an inlet temperature of 60 degrees, but in fact, 56.3 degrees is the most efficient temperature.
There is no law in this, and it is completely necessary for the adjuster to rely on his rich experience and familiarity with the equipment to continuously fine-tune, and finally find the most suitable inlet temperature to reduce ammonia consumption, so as to effectively improve production capacity!
And rich experience and familiarity with the equipment, he is not lacking for the current Zhong Bai!
Just do it when you think of it, although Shan Jianping has a personal matter to go out, Zhong Bai still got off the office building without hesitation and walked to the workshop again!
Zhong Bai re-entered the synthetic ammonia workshop with great interest, and after changing into work clothes, he found Mo Jinlong, the head of the production section.
"Chief Mo, I didn't see the low-key water inlet temperature record sheet of the ammonium condenser yesterday, where can I find this thing?"
When Mo Jinlong heard this, he asked a little strangely: "Low-key water inlet temperature record?" What do you think this does? Isn't that thing a perennial thing? ”
"I've got it for myself." Zhong Bai didn't want to explain more to him: "Listening to you say this, hasn't the inlet temperature of low-key water been adjusted in our factory?" ”
"What the hell are you doing with that? Didn't the equipment manual say that it should be fixed, and you just graduated from a technical school and even forgot about this? Mo Jinlong glanced at him, and his face was full of black question marks.
Nitrogen fertilizer production hasn't been touched at all, so who's going to get the idea out of it?
"I'll take a look first, maybe I can reduce ammonia consumption and increase production capacity if I adjust it." Zhong Bai said: "But I still have to look at the records first." ”
When Mo Jinlong heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, and said, "Hey, you kid has a new trick again?" Record it with the old guard, you just go to him. ”
"Guard? Which old guard? ”
"Why do you have the same memory as an old man? Didn't you just quarrel with Lao Wei yesterday because of the change furnace, and I don't remember it today? Mo Jinlong smiled and pointed into the distance: "Well, Wei Shijie is over there, you can just ask him." ”
It turned out to be the stubborn old worker from yesterday!
Since it was recorded with him, Zhong Bai could only go to Wei Shijie again to ask for it.
Wei Shijie was recording something, and when he saw that Zhong Bai was here yesterday, where was he still a little angry, he immediately stood up excitedly and asked Zhong Bai: "Xiao Zhong, you came just in time, what kind of isothermal transformation technology you said yesterday, explain it to me......
Zhong Bai couldn't help but wonder a little, how did the old stubborn suddenly turn into a schoolboy who was eager to learn?
Of course, Zhong Bai is not to blame, after all, he left after throwing down a few words yesterday, only remembering Wei Shijie's unruly and-for-tat rhythm at the beginning.
And he didn't notice at all that after he left, the more Wei Shijie pondered, the more he felt that he was a talent, and the new theories and new thinking he put forward were breathtaking, and he admired this old stubbornness so much that he was looking for an opportunity to ask him for details.
"This is not easy to explain in the workshop, it involves a lot of knowledge and some new formulas or something." Zhong Bai quickly shook his head and refused the other party's request.
He explained this set of theories to the nerd who claimed to read the most books in the factory, and Shan Jianping, the head of the technical section, asked a lot of questions in a row and didn't understand, if he wanted to explain a few words to Wei Shijie in the production environment of the workshop, Zhong Bai didn't think he had that ability.
In other words, he doesn't think that in terms of theoretical knowledge, Wei Shijie can be stronger than Shan Jianping.
"That's ......" Wei Shijie's tone was actually a little regretful: "Then when will I take a vacation, and then I will go to the office to ask you well!" By the way, Xiao Zhong, what's the matter with coming over today? Won't we have to stop this converter for overhaul, right? ”
Unconsciously, Wei Shijie's tone in the face of Zhong Bai has long since lost the elder tone of the fifty-year-old comrades in the factory to the young people in their twenties, but has a trace of the respectful tone that usually communicates with Section Chief Mo Jinlong.
"Now that the plant is running low in nitrogen fertilizer capacity, why is it possible to stop for overhaul?" Zhong Bai immediately said: "I'm here to check the temperature record of the low-key water inlet, Chief Mo said that you are here." ”
"Oh, this one has!" Wei Shijie immediately turned around, found the thinnest one from a pile of record books, and immediately handed it to Zhong Bai: "This is the low-key water inlet temperature record table since this year, you can take a look." ”
Zhong Bai took it casually and flipped it over, and it was almost as he expected.
It's been a series of 59 degrees every day, and there is not even a second different number!
"What about last year and the year before? Are they all 59 degrees? Closing the record book, Zhong Bai cautiously asked, "Is there a record book for the first two years?" ”
