The Central Plains dynasty's history of using tinea oil is actually quite long.

In Guannei Road, there are now some fixed tincture oil collection locations.

Of course, at this time, turmeric oil mining is basically about finding pure natural oil wells, or simply digging, and then transporting the original state of turmeric oil back for processing.

In other words, under the influence of Li Kuan, the demand for the use of tincture oil has increased. Otherwise, except for the local people who are poor in winter, they may get some back and burn it for heating, which is not used by ordinary people.

There is no way, the thick black smoke is definitely not something that ordinary people can bear.

"Master, do you think there are a lot of substances mixed in this tincture oil? Otherwise, why does the original tincture oil burn so much smoke when it is directly burned, but what are different after processing?"

In the turmeric oil research institute, Lian Zhijian and Rao Yongxiang looked at the rows of oil lamps, constantly recording various information.

These days, there are not many observation equipment, and everything is basically confirmed by your eyes.

However, let’s not talk about other things for now. Which lamp has more black smoke, and it doesn’t require any auxiliary equipment, you can see it at a glance.

"This tincture oil emerges directly from the ground. It seems that it is mixed with all kinds of messy things. Now we need to consider how to extract pure tincture oil."

Rao Yongxiang didn't know what the chemical composition in the tincture oil was.

At this time, I was just using my own experience to speculate there.

"From the perspective of making sulphur bombs, the first part of the thing extracted after distillation is the best material, but this part of the thing seems to be very unstable when used for burning, and the combustion is too intense, and it will burn away after a while. It is obviously not the most suitable raw material for lamp oil.

From the perspective of lighting, the materials that were distilled later after the tincture oil were extracted were not available to make tincture oil bombs at all, but it seemed to be very suitable for making lamp oil. Not only was it burned very stable, but it was also very resistant to burning.”

Based on the situation last night and the current situation of various controlled trials, Lian Zhijian gave his own conclusion.

"If the final test results are what you said, it is actually a good thing. When we refine tin oil in the future, we can find the most suitable use no matter when the things distilled out. Wouldn't this greatly reduce the cost of the material?

Just like when we extracted the materials for making kerosene bombs before, we could basically only use the first part of the materials distilled out. The things behind were basically wasted, and it was a pity to eat them.

In this way, the cost of sulphur bombs will naturally remain high.

But now other tincture oil refining products can find their own uses, which means that the cost of tincture oil bombs has decreased and that the cost of lamp oil has decreased.

Now we are simply distinguishing the refined products of turmeric oil based on whether they are suitable for making turmeric oil bombs and materials used as lamp oil. I think it may not be very rigorous.

If you can further find the rules of tinder oil, find the real differences in materials from different stages, and distinguish various materials more accurately, that would be the best."

Rao Yongxiang vaguely touched the threshold for studying tinea oil, and felt that this thing should not be so simple to distinguish.

"Well, then we will re-do a series of experiments according to the ideas you said to see if we can further find various rules.

Based on the past situation, the refined products are different when this tinder oil is distilled to different temperatures.

I think we can consider this aspect and see if we can constantly confirm the differences between different temperature ranges of turmeric oil distilled products in different temperature ranges.

According to His Highness the previous theory of the King of Chu, the boiling points of different materials are different. After the water is heated to 100 degrees, it will start to boil, and the boiling points of vinegar and oil are obviously different.

This tinder oil is likely to be a product of several kinds of things mixed together. Different things have different boiling points, so when we heat it to different temperatures, the distilled things are also different."

Lian Zhijian is worthy of being a talented person who was able to be accepted as a disciple by Rao Yongxiang.

If Li Kuan was here, he would definitely not be able to help but give Lian Zhijian a thumbs up.

His analysis is almost exactly in line with the actual situation of oil.

Even if Li Kuan came over, he couldn't say it in more detail.

After all, his understanding of oil is still in the state of high school chemistry books.

I know that this is a mixture, and different products such as gasoline, kerosene, etc. will come out at different distillation temperatures.

"Okay! The focus of the work of the turmeric oil research institute during this period has been adjusted to the direction you are talking about. We will first come up with a preliminary conclusion within a week.

Once the guess you just mentioned is confirmed, then we will immediately publish a special paper in the journal Science, and then apply to the academy to build a workshop for refining tincture oil. At that time, our Chemical College will be able to solve most of our funding problems just like the School of Geology and Physics."

The integrated development of industry, academia and research is now well implemented at Guanshishan Academy.

Especially the Academy of Geophysics, the various workshops under it have brought huge benefits to the Academy.

Although these benefits will eventually be paid to the academy, when allocating funds, everyone will definitely get more funds.

Besides, the transfer of income is definitely not 100% transfer, and the operation space here is quite large.

"There is not a lot of tincture oil reserved in the tincture oil research institute. If you want to conduct large-scale experiments, it is necessary to arrange people to expand the collection of tincture oil, and even set up a special tincture oil mining workshop in Yanchang County."

Lian Zhijian is still considering the problem very well.

The demand for tincture oil before the Tang Dynasty was not very large.

But if tin oil can be processed into lamp oil, the demand will definitely increase sharply.

The cost of tin oil mining today is relatively low.

Although it is a bit troublesome to refine tin oil, it is not very expensive if it is just very simple to distillate it.

Therefore, the cost of lamp oil is destined to be relatively low.

In this way, the demand for lamp oil by the people will definitely increase sharply.

It is embarrassing to improve the output of tin oil mining without planning ahead. If there is not enough tin oil at that time, it will be embarrassing.
