Fushun is a typical resource-based city that prospers and declines because of coal.

In fact, in addition to coal, shale oil reserves are also very abundant.

For example, the largest West Open-pit Mine in Fushun is the only coal mine in the world that integrates coal, shale oil, gas power generation and waste heat heating, ranking seventh in the world among large open-pit mines.

Kangchi put the experimental site here, in addition to the fact that there is a relatively superficial shale oil here, which is convenient for the rapid completion of experimental tests, in fact, there is another meaning in it......

As early as the beginning of the eighteenth century, the little bookmen who won the battle against Lao Maozi in the north began to control the Fushun coalfield, and began to frantically plunder the coal resources of China here.

Later, they built an oil mill here, and used the oil shale here as raw material to produce the first barrel of artificial oil in the land of China.

And today,

Kangchi wants to use a new technology to produce another barrel of artificial oil here that can set off the oil revolution in China!

Ten o'clock in the morning.

The West Open-pit Mine, which has actually stopped mining for 19 years, has now been transformed into a comprehensive ecological park and even a coal mine museum.

But today, the park was suddenly closed and temporarily controlled by the military.

At the bottom of the more than 400 meters of the mine, the lowest point of the Huaguo Continent, after Chen Hai and others helped Kang Chi lift the curtain, a silver cylindrical equipment appeared in everyone's sight.

"What is this?" Chief Lu looked at the equipment in front of him with some confusion, "Shield machine? ”

"No, I call it an oil extractor." Kangchi took out a drawing and explained to Chief Lu, "It can directly drill into the shale layer thousands of meters underground to complete the exploitation of shale oil." ”

“！！？”

Chief Lu's face suddenly changed greatly, and he understood that what Kangchi said on the phone was absolutely exciting, how exciting it was!

"Are you sure? What about oil production? How much does it cost? Will it damage the underground rock structure and cause environmental damage? ”

His voice trembled and he asked several questions in succession.

Kang Chi shook his head: "I can only be sure of these questions after completing the test, and now they are only predictions, and they may not be accurate." ”

"So what are you waiting for? When you're ready, start experimenting! ”

Looking at Chief Lu, who was more anxious than himself, Kang Chi couldn't help but smile, then walked to the side of the oil extractor, unscrewed a shell, pointed to the transparent jar inside and said, "Look, this place is empty now." ”

After saying that, he reinstalled the case and took out the remote control.

It's said to be a remote control, but it's actually more like a thicker tablet, which comes with an upgrade when the oil extraction bug is upgraded.

After the upgrade, multiple probes have been installed in the body, which can scan the surrounding environment and virtually model it and present it on the panel of the controller.

In this way, Kangchi can intuitively know the current location of the oil production insect and the environmental conditions around it, and at the same time design the mining route in advance.

After asking everyone to retreat to twenty meters, Kangchi began to control the oil production insects, crawling towards the exposed oil shale formations that had been stepped on in advance.

Seeing this scene, Chen Hai suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu......

It feels ......

Isn't it the digging toy used to play with mud at home before?!

It turns out that thing is not playing with mud at all, but a prototype of an oil extractor?!

When he wrote the weekly mission report, he reported to the top that Kangchi was basically doing research at home this week, manufacturing lens manufacturing equipment, and during the period, in addition to eating, he came out to play with the digging toys he made......

Isn't that a joke?!

It's so embarrassing......

The main thing is that they have changed so much that even when he saw the oil extraction bug that night, he couldn't connect the two things.

Chen Hai couldn't help but glance at Kang Chi, and then looked at his immediate boss standing beside Chief Lu with some humility......

Well

At that time, it seemed that I had been digging for two hours in the mud to help Dr. Kang find the equipment......

He has merit, he is not afraid!

When Chen Hai calmed down and looked at the oil extractor again, the drill bit in front of it finally began to make contact with the rock wall.

With a cacophony of rubbing, the rock began to crumble and was collected into the Extractor, and after about five minutes, its body was halfway inside.

At the same time, dozens of holes in its butt also began to pull out 'poop' rhythmically......

It doesn't look like ordinary gravel either, but geometry of different shapes.

At Kangchi's behest, a soldier stepped up and returned with a piece of poop.

Everyone was curious to look at it, and found that it was structured like a quadrangular pyramid attached to each side of the cube, which looked a bit like a simplified version of a spiked ball.

"During the mining process, the extraction insects will simply compress the refined crushed stone residue into more than a dozen different geometries and discharge it from the back."

Kangchi explained to everyone in a timely manner,

"And after this geometry is piled up, there will be a large number of air gaps, which are used to fill the reduction of rock formation material caused by the oil after collection, and they are usually more pressure-resistant than the original rock formation, the principle is actually a bit similar to the flood control dam on the seaside, which is to solve the problem of geological collapse caused by mining, and we will also do specific stress tests."

Chief Lu nodded: "This design is quite simple and ingenious. ”

As the oil insects drill deeper and deeper, everyone can only judge the location of the oil insects through the screen of the remote control in Kangchi's hand.

After setting the route, Kangchi actually had nothing to do, so he could only explain the various design principles of oil extraction insects to Chief Lu.

"During the collection process, considering the complexity of the rock formations, there will be a simple material identification and screening, the oily liquid will flow into a special container, the oily solids will enter the electrolysis furnace along the conveyor belt, and the ordinary earth rock will be directly discharged......"

After more than an hour of explanation, Chief Lu only felt that his head was big......

Fortunately, not long after an hour, everyone began to hear the sound of the drill digging, and quickly focused their eyes on the rock wall.

As the sound grew louder and louder, after about five minutes, the head of the oil worm was pressed against the entrance and a new hole was drilled out of the side, leaving two circles in the rock formation that were close together, filled with various geometric rock masses.

After the oil worm stopped, everyone immediately surrounded it, and watched closely as Kangchi removed the previously disassembled shell again.

A jar that was already filled with black liquid appeared in everyone's sight!

"Succeeded? Is it really oil?! ”

"Check it out."

Kangchi jumped off the oil extractor, then walked over to the oil worm's ass, opened a cover, and pressed the button inside.

Next to the cover, another larger cover popped open, and from inside came a synthetic connector with four circular connectors.

"One of the four breaths is the oil outlet, one is the charging port, and the remaining two are for supplementing water and catalyst."

After Kangchi introduced to Chief Lu, he connected a pipe prepared in advance to the oil outlet, and then pressed the oil drain option on the controller.

So everyone saw that the oil in the transparent jar inside the oil worm began to pass through the pipe at a speed visible to the naked eye, and was discharged into the container prepared in advance.

"498 kilograms!"

A technician who had been temporarily borrowed from the Fushun Petroleum Company read out the weight of the liquid in the container.

Then there's the liquid test.

"The hydrocarbon compound content is 97%, including the carbon content is 85%, the hydrogen content is 12%, the trace element content such as sulfur, nitrogen, oxygen is 3%, and the density is 0.87, which is a light petroleum!"

Hearing this result, the scene immediately boiled!
