Chapter 166: Rebuilding the Yellow River
August 11th.
The desalination plant of the first phase of the Bohai District Seawater Desalination Project was officially completed.
Zhu Jianguo, president of Dongtang Galaxy Water Company, Ma Chang, vice president, Yuan Quan, director of the Seawater Desalination Research Institute, and Fang Ping and Zhang Haifeng of Haifeng Wind Power gathered together in the first phase of the seawater desalination plant.
"Yuan Suo, can you try it now?" Zhu Jianguo asked.
Yuan Quan nodded: "It's okay." ”
"Let's get started!" Zhu Jianguo instructed the factory director on the side.
The director of the plant hurriedly instructed the workers to start the equipment of the desalination plant in accordance with the operation process.
The desalination reservoir of the desalination plant has a trapezoidal cross-section and is designed to be one kilometer long and fifty meters wide.
The desalination film is set on the inclined plane on both sides, the length of the inclined plane is kilometers, and the width is 20 meters, the area of one side is 20,000 square meters, and the two sides are 40,000 square meters.
The entire desalination reservoir is semi-sealed, and the head and tail can pass through seawater.
There is a pressurized sluice gate every 100 meters, and after the sea enters the first gate, the pressurized sluice gate closes and presses to the other side.
A kilometer is pressed from end to end, and 95% of the water is pressed to the other side of the desalination film like a juicer.
At the end of the day, there is a 5% solution of high-concentration sodium chloride and other solutions, which are discharged into a special brine reservoir and then transported by pipeline to the sea salt chemical plant and storage depot not far away.
The freshwater, which is also squeezed out, is quickly piped in the reservoir to where it is needed.
The desalination canal that is currently in operation is just one of the canals, which alone can produce 28 billion cubic meters of fresh water a year.
The desalination plant has a total of three desalination canals, two for daily production and one for backup.
If the three desalination canals are operating at full capacity, they could produce 84 billion cubic meters of fresh water a year.
Of course, it is impossible to reach full capacity, not because desalination plants can't produce it, but because pipelines can't transport so much fresh water.
The water pipeline currently being erected has a single line to transport 15 billion cubic meters of water per year.
If the desalination plant were to run at full capacity, six pipelines would need to carry 15 billion cubic meters of water per year.
Therefore, the desalination plant is currently putting into a desalination canal for trial production, and the operating power is only about 40%.
The water level of the 100,000-square-meter, 30-meter-deep reservoir that can hold 3 million cubic meters of water is rising at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Don't think that a 3 million cubic meter reservoir can meet the freshwater production rate of a desalination canal, a desalination canal can fill this reservoir with fresh water produced in one hour.
So during the test run, only 40% of the power was activated, but even so, the reservoir would be completely filled in about two and a half hours.
Vice President Ma Chang hurriedly took a bucket tied with a rope tied to it, threw it into the freshwater reservoir, and after a while, he lifted a bucket of water.
"Come, how about you try this water?" Ma Chang directly filled a glass of water in a disposable cup and tasted the taste of water.
The others also picked up their cups and drank the water.
"Not bad!"
"I didn't feel the bitterness."
"It's about the same as pure water."
"Great, now the water problem in the north can be solved." Ma Chang happily drank a glass of water.
"It's not that simple! The amount of water delivered by the aqueduct is a problem. Zhu Jianguo smiled bitterly.
Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard it, now it's not the water pipes waiting for the pipes, but the water waiting for the pipes.
"Mr. Zhu, rest assured, I will immediately report this problem to the above, since there is so much fresh water surplus, we can't let this production capacity be wasted here." Ma Chang hurriedly said.
"Then it's a matter of bothering Mr. Ma."
"It's not troublesome, it's all within its bounds."
Ma Chang wishes there were more of these things, after all, the more important the water company, the higher his position will rise, and the higher his achievements.
After the trial operation of the desalination canal, the soldiers were divided into three routes.
Horses often go to report to the top; Yuan Quanhe and the factory director and others continue to test the situation of seawater desalination equipment to see if there is anything that needs to be improved.
Zhu Jianguo and Fang Ping went to discuss the construction and layout of the wind power station.
……
Beiping City Elders' House.
"Good news, great news, elder!" Su Delin, the minister of the Ministry of Water Affairs, ran into the second elder's office with a smile on his face.
The second elder raised his glasses and asked, "What great news?"
"The desalination plant in Bohai Bay is already in trial operation, and this is a detailed report."
The second elder immediately took it and flipped through it carefully.
[The first phase of the seawater desalination project in Bohai District is in good condition, and a single desalination canal can produce 28 billion cubic meters of fresh water per year...... At full capacity, it can produce 84 billion cubic meters of fresh water per year...... ]
Seeing this, the second elder's expression of pampering and not being shocked couldn't help but applaud:
"Good! Good! Very good! Now the water problem in the north is solved! ”
"Elder, there is no problem with the output of the desalination plant, and now the pipeline can't transport so much fresh water!" Su Delin hurriedly explained.
The second elder hurriedly turned to the question mentioned by Ma Chang.
15 billion cubic meters of water per year? Is the pipeline too single?
"Delin, how much water do you need in a year in the five places of Hebei Province, Mongolian District, Liaodong Province, Jin City, and Beiping City?" The second elder looked up and asked.
"18.1 billion cubic meters in Hebei Province, 18.5 billion cubic meters in Mongolia, 16.7 billion cubic meters in Liaodong Province, 2.7 billion cubic meters in Tianjin City, 4.3 billion cubic meters in Beiping City, a total of 60.3 billion cubic meters of fresh water in the five places!" Su Delin has obviously done his homework in advance, and the data is fluent.
"60.3 billion cubic meters, that is to say, the first phase can meet the water supply of Hebei Province, Mongolian District, Liaodong Province, Tianjin City, and Beiping City." The second elder quickly calculated.
"The elder is right, these fresh water supplies to the five places are more than enough, and now everything is ready and only the east wind is owed."
After pondering for a while, the second elder took the report heavily and said categorically:
"The water pipeline will be built immediately, and the pipeline to Ji Province, Tianjin City and Beiping City will be built first, and this fresh water is too important for the north."
"We'll arrange it right away."
"No, I personally supervise this project, and the name of this project is too ordinary, so let's change the name to the Yellow River Rebuilding Project!"
In fact, the first phase of the seawater desalination plant in the Bohai area can actually deserve the title of "rebuilding the Yellow River".
Because the annual flow of the Yellow River is about 56 billion cubic meters, which is equivalent to the annual output of two desalination canals.
However, the two are not the same, because the water of the Yellow River contains a lot of sediment and cannot be used directly; The fresh water from the desalination plant is drinkable.
Soon the House of Elders convened a special meeting, and after discussion.
It was decided to add two main water pipelines, one is the second line supplying Hebei Province, Tianjin City and Beiping City; One supplies Line 3 in Liaodong Province.
Line 2 will be started on a priority basis, and Line 3 will be built in the second half of next year.
In addition, two new desalination plants are planned in the coastal areas of Lu Province in the Bohai Region and the coastal areas of Jiangsu Province.
Judging from the planning map, the first, second and third phases of the Yellow River Reclamation Project are like three big trees, the desalination plant is the root, the water pipeline is the trunk and branches, and the cities along the route are like leaves.
