Chapter 383: The whole country works together to create the Nine Heavens Breathing Land!
In the entire room, everyone's attention was instantly focused on Chang Haonan.
Even though the latter had experienced many battles, he was also a little numb at the moment being stared at by several blazing eyes.
However, after calming down, he still said in a deep voice:
“I thought of a device that can build a flood control belt in a short time, which can not only deal with urban waterlogging, but also It can prevent dam failures caused by floods to a certain extent, or help block and rescue dams that have collapsed. ”
"Huh?"
Hearing these words, Cao Gangchun's eyes suddenly became sharp:
"Tell me in detail."
As one of the people present, The only one with a serious military background, he has a more comprehensive understanding of the pain points in the process of flood fighting and rescue operations.
For an army in peacetime, disaster relief is a test of war.
And because disasters are more sudden and unpredictable, in some aspects the requirements for organizational and combat effectiveness are even higher!
Of course, in this regard, the People's Liberation Army has never disappointed.
Wherever there is danger, there are people’s soldiers!
But just as soldiers need weapons and equipment to go to the battlefield, emergency rescue and disaster relief also require technology and equipment that keep pace with the times.
Although Cao Gangchun has worked in the headquarters for many years, he has also participated in several rescue operations for different types of disasters at the grassroots level. Therefore, he is well aware of the difficulty and risks involved in the absence of suitable technical equipment. How big is sex.
Chang Haonan nodded:
“Okay, give me a pen and a piece of paper.”
Compared with the research in the aviation field in the past, this time, his overall idea is not the same. It's not complicated, so it's explained clearly in just a few sentences.
Only a little more attention has been spent on the design of the steel frame used as structural support.
Because Cao Gangchun asked very detailed questions.
"Comrade Xiao Chang, the steel plate frame you mentioned is only used as a structure to accommodate the expansion bag. It does not play a role in blocking the water flow, right?"
"Yes, you can put it This thing is understood as a strengthened version of the steel cage, and the expansion bag is a gravel bag and sandbag that is lighter and easier to move.”
Although Chang Haonan is not a soldier, he has experienced various aspects of the information age. A person who likes publicity can understand the other party's urgent but worried mentality at this time, so he explained very patiently.
Hearing this, Cao Gang finally let go of his worries.
It’s not that you don’t trust the other party, it’s just that there are so many different things. People who have no idea about the power of floods can easily come up with counter-intuitive methods such as “use a metal wall to block the flood”. .
"So, what kind of water-absorbent material should be used in the expansion bag you mentioned?"
In the end, Cao Gangchun still raised this most critical question.
“This is exactly the problem I want to ask the organization to solve.”
Chang Haonan glanced at the circle of bosses in front of him and said solemnly:
“ I have read a document before, which talks about a highly water-absorbent powdered resin obtained due to process errors. The water absorption performance is about 1000:1-20. The content of the report is that the manufacturer originally only regarded it as Generally, harmless solid waste is piled in the open air. As a result, after a heavy rain, the entire pile is filled with water-absorbed resin.”
"It would be very difficult to go back and find this document now, so I would like to apply to conduct a thorough investigation of chemical companies across the country to see if any manufacturer has produced products with similar properties."
“I already have the design of the expansion bag and the steel plate frame. It won’t take too long. As long as the problem of water-absorbent materials is solved, it can be put into production immediately!”
As soon as these words came out, Cao Gangchun beside him could no longer sit still. He stood up and said:
"We can't wait any longer. If this kind of thing is delayed for one second, the troops involved in the disaster relief will be disappointed." If there is one more second of difficulty, I will go back and report it immediately, contact the Ministry of Chemical Industry, and ask them to issue a notice to chemical companies nationwide to find this material.”
This meeting! The original purpose was to solve the risk of waterlogging faced by Factory 132. Now that Chang Haonan has proposed a solution, there is no need to continue to waste it.
"Xiao Chang, after the expansion bag and steel plate frame are designed, you must contact me as soon as possible. I will notify the quilt factory and machinery processing factory in the military industry system later, so that they can be ready to switch production at any time."< br>
Although Ding Gaoheng's reaction was not as exciting as Cao Gangchun's, one could hear some urgency from his speaking speed, which was much faster than usual.
"Old Cao."
Huai Guomo stood up from behind, stopped Cao Gangchun, who had already put on his hat and was about to go back to deploy the mission, and handed him a piece of paper in his hand.
He is from the Department of Chemical Engineering of Jiaotong University. Although he has not participated in specific chemical engineering projects for some years, he has not forgotten some basic skills he learned in the past. He had not spoken just now because he was reflecting on the material properties described by Chang Haonan. Suggest possible ingredients and synthesis routes:
"According to my analysis, the material Comrade Xiao Chang mentioned should be some kind of cross-linked polymerization product using acrylic acid or acrylate as one of the raw materials. You can tell the Ministry of Chemical Industry to focus on the chemical industry in this field. Inside the company. ""Okay. "
Cao Gangchun took the piece of paper filled with element symbols and chemical structural formulas.
As a graduate of the artillery major, he couldn't fully understand it, but that didn't matter.
As the people in this conference room returned to their jobs, orders were issued in an orderly manner to all parts of the country, and together with the People's Liberation Army soldiers who were gathering across the country on standby, they were ready to fight against this show of force. A natural disaster in front of us.
The huge and sophisticated state machine began to show its power at critical moments.
Even if it’s just a part.
That evening, dozens of military factories located along the Yangtze River, Nen River and Songhua River received instructions from their superior units, asking them to immediately enter a production mobilization state and be ready to switch to a high-tech manufacturing plant at any time. A multi-layer sealed bag made of strong chemical fiber, and a steel structural frame with a size between 2-3 meters that can be quickly assembled by bolts.
Later, textile and steel companies in these regions also received similar notices, requiring them to suspend orders at hand and give priority to a group of nearby military factories that have not had much production tasks for many years. raw materials.
Early the next morning, the army aviation units near Gan and Hubei provinces received orders to take off, weather permitting, to conduct aerial reconnaissance of the local disaster situation.
Twelve hours later, a research team from Zhejiang University launched a stratospheric airship carrying communication relay equipment on the border of Hubei and Shaanxi provinces.
That is, one and a half months ago, the ship was responsible for providing communication relay for naval aviation aircraft carrying out embankment operations in southern Qiong Province.
......
On the third day, Chang Haonan, who stayed up for two nights in a row, handed the detailed design plan of the flood control expansion bag and steel structure frame to Ding Gaoheng's desk.
Relevant comrades from the General Office of the Science and Technology Commission have already been waiting here. They will formulate the design plan into production standards in the shortest time and issue it to various arsenals that are already ready.
"Director Ding, the kind of material I mentioned..."
Chang Haonan didn't have much time to pay attention to what was happening outside these days, so he was a little worried about it.
"It has been found."
Huai Guomo, who was sitting next to him, picked up a report from the table and handed it to Chang Haonan:
"Last night, the chemical industry The ministry received a report from a chemical factory in Kecheng, Zhejiang Province, stating that they had unintentionally added starch, acrylic acid and a cross-linking agent together, and after graft polymerization and alkali decomposition, produced a large amount of pure It’s not enough, but it takes a lot of effort to deal with the highly absorbent waste.”
Chang Haonan took the report and glanced at it quickly.
He doesn’t have much background in chemical engineering, but he can still understand the conclusion.
The water absorption capacity is about 1000:5-10, which meets the requirements.
The main raw materials are starch, acrylic acid and sodium hydroxide, which have almost no requirements on purity, and the cost is no problem.
More importantly, this factory is already producing polyolefins using a similar graft polymerization process and can complete the conversion in a relatively short period of time.
"Great!"
Chang Haonan flicked the report in his hand:
"In this way, we can reduce a lot of physical burden on our soldiers participating in flood fighting and rescue missions. The damage caused by waterlogging in major cities has become easier to control!”
“Yes, when Lao Cao found me this morning, he almost jumped up.”
Ding Gaoheng. Put the report back on the table:
"This thing you designed may seem inconspicuous, but its significance to the country and the people is no less than those previous achievements. I think it must have a resounding name."
" In the myth, Dayu holds four innate treasures. I think it would be better to name it after one of them that is related to water control. "
"Let's call it 'Nine Heavens Breathing Land'"
