Chapter 6 Seawater Desalination System
After returning to the Donghai villa, Ye Yang took a shower and went on the Internet, but there was a piece of news that attracted him, "According to a certain reporter from a certain TV station, Israel, Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan broke out in local skirmishes due to competition for the water of the Jordan River...... Ye Yang knows that one of the biggest threats to mankind in the 21st century is the shortage of water resources, and if you grasp this problem well, it is definitely a rare wealth.
As mankind enters the 21st century, the demand for water resources is increasing, and the problem of water shortage has always threatened the survival and development of mankind, and is a major problem that mankind urgently needs to solve. With the development of the economy and the increase of population, the demand for water resources is increasing, coupled with the unreasonable exploitation and utilization of water resources, many countries and regions have different degrees of water shortage. The most promising solution to the problem of water scarcity at present seems to be the exploitation and utilization of some unavailable water. Examples include desalination, groundwater development and harvesting, and the use of polar glaciers. In fact, the amount of water resources on the earth is very sufficient, and when we talk about water scarcity, we only mean fresh water, or the scarcity of water resources that can be used at will. Therefore, it is a great way to change the unusable water to the usable water. Another way to do this is to call on people to address water use and reuse. In addition, there is the prevention of water pollution, which is also an important cause of water shortage.
Ye Yang knows that the water problem in the Middle East has always been very serious, and many countries are fighting over it. The Middle East is rich in oil resources, but water resources are extremely scarce. In the Middle East, water means not only the development of agriculture and industry, but above all it directly means the security of the country and the right of the people to exist. As a result, the struggle over water resources in the Middle East has always been fierce. Although the water resources in the Jordan River basin are the smallest among the major river basins in the Middle East, the contradictions and struggles surrounding them are the most intense, and whether or not these contradictions and struggles can be properly resolved has a direct bearing on whether or not the peace process in the Middle East can continue.
"Intelligent computer, now human beings are facing a serious shortage of water resources, I want to start with seawater desalination technology, which can not only help human beings alleviate the problem of water shortage, but also a rare business opportunity, this is a lot of money, what do you think or suggest about this?" Ye Yang asked happily.
"Desalination technology refers to the process of removing excess salts and minerals from water to obtain fresh water. At present, the seawater desalination membrane methods installed on your earth mainly include multi-stage flash evaporation (MSF), multi-effect evaporation (MED) and reverse osmosis (RO), which have fed more than 100 million people on the earth for half a century and promoted the economic and social development of arid desert areas and coastal areas of developed countries. Seawater desalination equipment, seawater due to its very high salt content, and can not be used directly, mainly using two methods to desalinate seawater, namely distillation and reverse osmosis. The distillation method is mainly used for the treatment of extra-large seawater desalination and in places with abundant thermal energy. The reverse osmosis membrane method is widely used because it has a wide range of applications and a high desalination rate. The reverse osmosis membrane method is first to extract the seawater, carry out preliminary treatment, reduce the turbidity of the seawater, prevent the growth of bacteria, algae and other microorganisms, and then use a special high-pressure pump to pressurize the seawater to enter the reverse osmosis membrane, due to the high salt content of the seawater, so the seawater reverse osmosis membrane must have a high desalination rate, corrosion resistance, high pressure resistance, anti-pollution and other characteristics, after the reverse osmosis membrane treatment of the seawater, its salt content is greatly reduced, TDS content from 36000 mg/L to about 200 mg/L. The desalinated water quality is even better than that of tap water, so that it can be used by industry, commerce, residents, ships and ships. ”
"Desalination technology is currently immature on the earth, has not been applied on a large scale, and is cost-effective and inefficient, and has not been able to play its true effect. But on our planet Y, we have developed to a tenth-level civilization, and the seawater desalination technology has long been mature, and it is undoubtedly a good thing to grasp this business opportunity on the earth, and the master's brain has been implanted into the scientific and technological culture before the tenth-level civilization. With the current level of scientific and technological development of the earth, seawater desalination equipment can not be used directly, and it is necessary to upgrade the seawater desalination equipment, so that it can greatly reduce costs and improve efficiency, but this can not solve the problem of water resources well, and can only alleviate the problem of water shortage. The most important thing is that you human beings need to vigorously develop science and technology and improve environmental awareness, which must be faced and solved by you. Master, I can first transfer the methods and materials for transformation and upgrading to you, and then you can create a set of low-cost and high-efficiency desalination technologies based on these desalination technologies combined with the current earth, and you can find Ye Long and Ye Feng to do the transformation and upgrading. The smart computer said.
A few minutes later, Ye Yang received the information and looked at it seriously. Half an hour later, Ye Yang quickly typed on the keyboard with both hands, and after half an hour, he stopped, the computer was already full of dense Chinese characters, click Save, and after changing another file, he double-clicked the file again. Ten minutes later, there was already one more code file on the desktop. Ye Yang opened the file and began to browse it quickly, and after a few minutes, Ye Yang deleted it after reading the file. Hands began to crack on the keyboard again. Three hours later, Ye Yang's hand finally stopped, and a top-secret document appeared on the computer desktop, and after writing, he asked the smart computer to change Chinese to English. That's right, the content of this document is the set of desalination technical data written by Ye Yang.
After writing about the new seawater desalination technology, Ye Yang began to check the world's most powerful seawater desalination companies, one of which is more in line with his requirements, this company is among the best in the world in terms of technology and capital, this company is Akeling Company. Ackering was founded by the Lyng Group, a Norwegian industrial group involved in electronics, energy and offshore drilling. As a global leader in the use of reverse osmosis technology for desalination, Ackeron has a clear competitive advantage in the industry with its expertise and advanced products and services. Ackeron leverages its design, development, construction management, and operations and maintenance capabilities to produce desalinated water where it's needed most around the world.
"Ye Long, Ye Feng, you go to buy a set of medium-sized seawater desalination equipment, transport it to a safer place, transform and upgrade it, and after the transformation and upgrading, send part of the desalination information I wrote to Bernt Others, chairman of Norway Ackering Holdings Co., Ltd. Ye Qing, you find a relatively safe place, and then equip it with the materials needed to transform and upgrade the desalination equipment and the materials to meet the normal operation of the desalination equipment. ”
"Master, we'll do it at once."
Two days later, Bernt Orsers, chairman of Norway Ackering Holdings Co., Ltd., saw the information that Ye Long sent him, and had to be surprised.
"Master, Mr. Berndt Authers is willing to discuss with you the purchase of desalination technology." Ye Long said.
"Tell him that if you want to buy this technology, the price is $5 billion, and ask him to come to Donghai City to trade."
When Berndt Orsers learned that it would cost $5 billion to buy this technology, he thought it was a bit expensive at first, but when he thought about it, how important water resources are to people, and when he owns this technology, he can only make billions of dollars, tens of billions, hundreds of billions of dollars, and the more he thinks about it, the happier he becomes. Berndt Ossus called Ye Long back, "I'll arrive in Donghai City in three days to trade with you."
In the blink of an eye, the third day came. Bernt Authers booked the presidential suite on the 28th floor of the Peace Hotel and waited for Ye Yang to make a deal. At 10 o'clock in the evening, Ye Yang came to the 28th floor of the Peace Hotel, where there were several guards, "Stop, what kind of person." The bodyguard at the door stopped Ye Yang and the four of them.
"I'm Ye Yang, and I've asked Mr. Berndt Oters to talk about things."
"Mr. Ye, a few of you, please." Bernt Oshers' secretary spoke.
"Mr. Ye, it's a pleasure to meet you." Berndt Oshers said happily.
"Mr. Bernt Orsers, I'm glad to meet you, let's talk about the contract, and after the deal is over, you send someone to a certain place to transport away a medium-sized desalination plant that we have renovated and upgraded."
Mr. Bernt Orsers said that he would sign up for payment as soon as he verified the desalination technology, and that they had $5 billion ready at HSBC in Hong Kong to transfer money at any time. Ye Long was translating on the side.
"Let's start checking the information." Berndt Authers said.
After twenty minutes of checking, it was confirmed that it was correct, and the two sides began to sign the contract, and Bernt Ossers began to transfer money. After a while, Ye Long said to Ye Yang: "Master, the money has arrived and has been transferred to our account in the Bank of China." ”
Ye Yang nodded, stood up and said to Berntesus: "Mr. Berentoters, the deal is complete, I think you should go back to Norway in a hurry, after you leave, send someone to a certain place to transport the equipment back, I wish you can arrive in Norway safely." Ye Yang said happily.
"Ye, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you, I hope we will have a chance to cooperate next time, I wanted to have a drink with you, but it is true that we are in a hurry to go back to Norway, this thing is too important, if it is known by the spies of a certain country, I think our return journey will be very difficult." If we have the chance, we must have a good drink, I have a lot of good wine at home. Bernt Ausses said with some concern.
"Okay, I'm looking forward to your good wine, and you must have a good time when the time comes, don't be reluctant to give it up." After saying that, the two of them laughed and left.
