Although he has experienced many dissertation defenses from undergraduate to doctoral graduation in his previous life, when he was the project director of the new drug creation center of RGP company, it is even more difficult to participate in the defense of scientific research projects, Fang Hanmin has long been accustomed to this kind of occasion, after all, there is no preparation in advance, and he is still slightly hesitant to face several big leaders in the factory for the first time.

Just when Fang Hanmin was sorting out his thoughts and preparing to elaborate on the technical plan, Deputy Director Wang, who was in charge of production, suddenly asked a digression: "Which university did Xiao Fang graduate from?" What year was it assigned to the factory? ”

This question surprised Fang Hanmin even more, and after a moment of surprise, he replied calmly: "I didn't graduate from any university, I was just a temporary worker who entered the factory the year before last." ”

The atmosphere of the venue suddenly fell into embarrassment, and the first director Yuan felt that Lao Wang was deliberately embarrassing, and the purpose of finding Xiao Fang was to find a solution to the problem as soon as possible, what does it have to do with his academic qualifications and time in the factory? "Don't care which university he graduated from, let Comrade Xiaofang talk about his thinking."

Fang Hanmin expounded his plan for more than half an hour, and gave a detailed introduction to the technical principles, process routes, raw material status and process flow involved.

Don't look at this set of wastewater treatment scheme is very novel in the idea, all kinds of unit operations are actually existing technology, Fang Hanmin in his previous life in the undergraduate internship of the Huakang Pharmaceutical Company, is used this method to treat the wastewater produced by iron powder reduction, to achieve clean production of the factory.

The leaders present were not consistent with Fang Hanmin's attitude, and some leaders were very interested in Fang Hanmin's technical solutions, although they knew little about some details, but felt that Fang Hanmin's thinking was very clear. Some leaders were prejudiced against Fang Hanmin themselves, and basically did not listen to the technical solutions he introduced.

When it came to the question session, Lao Wang, deputy director of the production plant, and Lao Xia, chief engineer, perhaps in order to highlight their identities as technical authorities of the whole plant, the two of them asked in unison: "This plan sounds a little reasonable, but the question is whether it can work in actual production?" ”

An hour passed, Fang Hanmin had already adapted to the atmosphere of the venue, he sat there and said calmly: "Please be specific to the two leaders, because I haven't thought of what won't work." ”

Lao Wang and Lao Xia may not have understood Fang Hanmin's technical plan at all, they raised this question completely to pretend, when Fang Hanmin asked them to talk about the details, the two looked at each other, and no one spoke.

This is the usual habit of playing officialdom, in the face of people with no status and humble status, no matter what the occasion, they like to condescendingly embarrass each other, but I didn't expect Fang Hanmin's request, but the two of them were not prepared at all.

One is the deputy director in charge of production, the other is the chief engineer, both of them are important members of the leadership team of the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory, even if Fang Hanmin is nerdy, he does not dare to deliberately generalize their army, he just answered their questions naturally.

Lao Yuan, the number one, knew the conduct of the two colleagues best, and felt that the two were a little embarrassed, and he didn't want to affect the overall situation because of these small things that could not be put on the table, so he took the words, "Comrade Xiaofang, for example, the first step you talked about, that is, steam distillation and deodorization, how should the actual operation be implemented?" ”

Unlike Lao Wang and Lao Xia, they don't believe that a temporary worker can have any technical insights at all, and they subjectively don't take the technical solutions introduced by Fang Hanmin seriously. Lao Yuan listened attentively to Fang Hanmin's introduction from beginning to end, and made records of the links he didn't understand, and the questions raised were very specific and targeted.

For the specific operation of steam distillation, Fang Hanmin believes that this is a pure process problem, and there is no need to introduce it on this occasion, since the leaders are so concerned (in fact, they are not very assured), he has to sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman, although not everyone can understand.

According to the wastewater treatment process introduced by Fang Hanmin, the first step is steam distillation, which can not only remove the odor of wastewater, but also fully recover the organic raw materials entrained. Saturated steam is used, heated by direct steam, and operated at atmospheric pressure.

"Comrade Xiaofang, according to what you mean, through the first step of treatment, not only the smell of wastewater is eliminated, but also some raw materials can be recovered, isn't it a double win?" Lao Yuan became more and more interested in Fang Hanmin's technical solutions.

"Yes, no matter how it is cleaned during the production process, two to three percent of the organic raw materials or semi-finished products will inevitably be entrained in the wastewater and iron sludge in the reduction process, and through this step of treatment, they can almost be recycled."

Lao Wang, the deputy director of the production plant, had already regained his demeanor while sitting next to him, and he thought of a question again, "Have you done calculations, how much difference is the value of these organic raw materials or semi-finished products recovered from the cost of steam distillation?" ”

Because it involves cost accounting, which is inconsistent with the theme of the meeting, Deputy Director Wang's question is obviously a bit different, but Fang Hanmin did not evade, "In addition to the depreciation of equipment in steam distillation, the main raw material is only the saturated water vapor consumed, and of course, the operator's salary. However, wastewater treatment is a job that has to be done, and it is good to have profits, but it has to be done without profits. ”

"Yes, don't worry about the cost, this work has to be done, and this is the main purpose of inviting you to the meeting today. Comrade Xiaofang, after the first step of treatment, the smell of waste water was removed, but the color of the wastewater still exists, and it cannot be discharged out! Director Yuan's heart still can't be put down.

"Of course, it can't be discharged directly, although the organic raw materials in the wastewater are recycled and the odor is eliminated, but the red color of iron oxide in it looks very eye-catching, and in addition, the discharge of these iron oxides containing iron powder is not only bad for the environment, but also a waste of resources."

"In other words, reduced iron powder also needs to be recycled? What recycling process do you think is best? ”

"Both for the sake of cleanliness and environmental protection, but also to conserve resources, I think it should be recycled. As for what process, it is relatively simple, nothing more than centrifugal sedimentation or multi-stage natural sedimentation, the former is more power-intensive, the latter covers a larger area, how to do it conveniently. Fang Hanmin completely looked like he was lightweight.

The venue fell silent again, and the leaders seemed to ask Fang Hanmin all the questions they were concerned about or suspected, Director Yuan just wanted to make a concluding speech, and the chief engineer Lao Xia, who had not spoken for a long time, straightened his body and cleared his throat, "Comrade Xiao Fang, if you follow your set of technical plans, should you do the test before the formal implementation?" ”

"Experiments? What kind of test did Mr. Xia refer to? I don't know if Fang Hanmin deliberately pretended to be stupid, or asked knowingly.

He didn't even understand such a simple thing, Lao Xia really thought that Fang Hanmin was a temporary worker without any technical literacy, and he said arrogantly: "Of course, it refers to the laboratory test!" Why, haven't you heard of it? ”

Fang Hanmin smiled weirdly, have you seen the science laboratory of Oxford University? Have you ever heard of RGP's Central Laboratory for Drug Discovery? Fang Hanmin came out of those halls of science! Of course, he couldn't take Lao Xia's contempt to heart, "I've heard of what Mr. Xia meant, do you want to start from the laboratory?" ”

"Doesn't all scientific and technological innovation start in the laboratory?"

That's right, scientific and technological innovation comes from mental imagination and experimental verification, but this wastewater treatment scheme proposed by Fang Hanmin has long been a mature process of large-scale industrialization in the previous life, and it is just used by him, which is not an innovation at all, where can it be verified in the laboratory! But this is a secret in his heart, and he can't tell anyone, "It's not an original invention, and I don't think I need to start in the lab." ”

"W-How can this be? Without laboratory validation, how do you know if your technical solution is feasible? If it fails, who will be responsible for the damage? Comrade Xiao Fang, you can't take the big matter related to the life and death of the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory as a child's play! ”

Lao Xia's upper outline went online, so that Fang Hanmin had nothing to say, but he didn't let go, Fang Hanmin meant, since the factory asked me, I should act according to my ideas, otherwise please be smart.

Through nearly two hours of in-depth exchanges, the first director Yuan has a certain understanding of Fang Hanmin, he feels that this young man has thoughts, personality, not a temporary worker at the mercy of others, Fang Hanmin's current attitude, more firm Lao Yuan's view, but he thinks that the chief engineer Lao Xia's request is also reasonable.

In order to reach an agreement as soon as possible, Lao Yuan proposed a compromise plan, "Because of the urgency of the situation, let's act separately in this matter, Mr. Xia organized personnel to verify Comrade Xiaofang's technical plan in the laboratory, and the second workshop is not out of service now?" Just vacate some equipment, let Comrade Xiaofang directly implement his plan in the industrial equipment, and ask the leaders of the second workshop to give Comrade Xiaofang the greatest cooperation in terms of personnel and materials, what do you think? ”

As soon as the words fell, Lao Yang, the director of the second workshop, was the first to agree, "The factory director's method is too good!" The process improvement of the acylation chemical section of our workshop, Comrade Xiaofang is directly in the equipment of the workshop production line to do the test, and the effect is very good. Please rest assured that we will do a good job of all-round cooperation for Comrade Xiaofang's test! ”

At that time, Fang Hanmin was allowed to conduct experiments directly in the workshop, which was the most brilliant thing Lao Yang did, and now it is mentioned to cater to the idea of the first leader, which is worthy of Lao Yang to show off, but the psychology of Lao Wu, a technician in the second workshop, has a sour feeling.

When the others heard that, since Fang Hanmin had already had this kind of unreasonable and irregular operation, they thought that Lao Yuan's compromise plan was a foolproof solution, even if Fang Hanmin was unsuccessful in industrial equipment, and Lao Xia was in the laboratory to escort him.

After reaching a consensus, Lao Yuan asked the whole plant to temporarily make way for the wastewater treatment project of the second workshop in his concluding speech, because this is the top priority of the whole plant's work at this stage.

After the meeting, Lao Yang hurriedly brought Fang Hanmin to the workshop office and asked how the workshop needed to cooperate with his work.

"Director, you don't have to take this matter too seriously, I think wastewater treatment is a bit of a cumbersome operation process, and other aspects are no different from the experiments I used to do in the workshop, don't worry, wait for me to determine the process flow, and then put forward the equipment list and construction plan, in order to know what needs to be done in the workshop." Fang Hanmin likes to work in an orderly manner.

"Well, we're waiting for your news."

"Director, you just have to go about your work, if there is anything I need to ask you for, I will let you know in advance."
