Chapter 2486 released
As Huangsha Town develops better and better, countless peeking eyes come in. Lin Ze cannot do anything to these people directly. After all, if you want to develop Huangsha Town, Lin Ze has to open Huangsha Town. If you really leave these people, Huangsha Town will not be able to develop.
Once there are too many people, this problem with the heart is a big problem. One is not good, and then some things that are very difficult to deal with will be created.
For example, those royal children are here to act as the royal family based on their own royal status.
Someone here will say that even top royal descendants like Yan Zifeng dare not cause accidents in front of Lin Ze. So why do other royal names dare to cause trouble?
The reason is actually very simple, that is, these royal children have not yet reached that position, and they only know some basic knowledge.
And it is precisely because they only know some superficial things that they will definitely be there when things are bad.
They would describe themselves as royal disciples and ask Lin Ze for this or that. It would be strange if there was no problem for a long time.
Not only the royal family, but also the aristocratic families, sects, etc. There are always some people who cannot see themselves clearly or who are very good at making trouble. Lin Ze will still be in trouble at that time.
Therefore, in order to avoid such trouble, Lin Ze simply let go of everything so that these people know what they are facing now, and whether he or they have the ability to deal with it.
Similarly, this is also a kind of support for those who want to take root in Huangsha Town, and an invisible spiritual protection.
The stronger the strength and foundation Lin Ze showed, the stronger the ability to resist risks in the future. Correspondingly, they will live in Huangsha Town more peacefully. In this way, of course, they will settle in Huangsha Town with peace of mind and develop here with peace of mind.
It was precisely because of these considerations that Lin Ze simply opened the door this time to let everyone see his magic.
The final effect was expected. The first furnace of steel just now scared countless people.
The first furnace alone was directly released to more than 20,000 kilograms of pig iron ingots. Moreover, such output is less than one-third of the daily output. Such numbers really scared countless people!
Those who were interested in the audience knew very well that war was actually about material things. Now the iron plant on Lin Ze can produce so much steel in a day. It can be said that Lin Ze has already gained an absolute advantage from now on.
Once a war occurs, Lin Ze can easily form an extremely powerful iron army.
As long as you think about the future, you will feel chilled in the people present.
The amount of pig iron was enough. Hu Yan quickly ordered the staff around him to close the grooves used for casting, and then opened the grooves leading to the iron stir-frying furnace. The molten iron flowed into the iron stir-frying furnace that had been burning for half an hour.
It is obvious that Hu Yan is preparing to start frying iron.
The reflective iron stir-frying furnace looks like a tea cup for Kung Fu tea, but the bottom and wall of the tea cup are hollow, and the molten iron is directly contained in the cup, while coal is burning at the bottom of the cup. The flames generated by the combustion reflect heat into the cup through the arched tea cup of this Kung Fu cup, constantly heating the molten iron, and then the remaining flames are taken away from the chimney.
The chimney was buried directly under the groove where the molten iron flowed into the furnace. This was done to preheat the molten iron. The next section was entangled with the intake air duct, sending the fresh air from the blower to the outside, and finally discharging the smoke with the reduced temperature into the air.
In this way, the heat was continuously increased, heating the molten iron in the furnace, and preheating the molten iron into the furnace groove to heat up the air blown into the bottom combustion chamber. These procedures were carried out in sequence and burned in an orderly manner. The flame also exerted its last trace of residual heat until it finally turned into a wisp of blue smoke and smoke dissipated in the air.
This is the maximum utilization of combustion residual heat, and it also saves energy and reduces pollution.
The vegetation situation around Huangsha Town is really bad. It can be said that it cannot withstand any pollution here. Originally, it was already a semi-desert area. Lin Ze has finally restored some vitality here. Now if the ecology here is directly destroyed due to the pollution emissions of the steel plant, Lin Ze might as well not build this iron smelting plant.
Compared to steel, bad situations are more important to Lin Ze.
Don’t look down on the sewage discharge equipment built by Lin Ze, thinking that with the current situation in Shenzhou Continent, these sewage discharge equipment are actually worse than none, because it is too backward.
However, in fact, it is not so easy because Lin Ze has a weapon refiner and they are here, using the means of refining weapons and some formations to arrange some means to reduce pollution.
For example, for example, the problem of dust reduction, Hu Yan directly set up several array plates such as dust reduction techniques here, and the problem of dust reduction here was solved.
So, although the technical level of Linze's steel mill is still far behind that of the towns and towns in later generations, Linze is much ahead of the environmental protection and energy conservation awareness.
There is a special mechanism, so the fuel in the iron smelting furnace is completely isolated from the molten iron, so that the coal can be used with confidence, and even can be dug out and used directly. It is much lower than the charcoal that needs to be fired in the kiln. Anyway, these coals are isolated and do not need to contact the molten iron inside. In this way, harmful substances such as sulfur and phosphorus in the coal will not be mixed into the molten iron, which will directly improve the quality of the molten iron.
At this time, after continuous heating of the molten iron, there was already a ray of light, which was caused by the tiny slag mixed in the molten iron.
Seeing this, Hu Yan directly started the stirring equipment in his hand, and the large disc on the top of the furnace began to rotate slowly, causing the three cooked iron sticks to keep spinning and stirring in the iron.
At the beginning, the carbon content of the pig iron refined in this blast furnace should be about 3%. Now, after the stirring of these cooked iron sticks, the carbon in the molten iron directly reacts violently with the oxygen in the air at high temperatures, producing carbon dioxide and releasing a lot of heat.
Suddenly, the iron inside boiled the pot, and bubbles kept gurgling, and even pushed the slag on the surface to the stove and piled up.
The melting point of pig iron is generally about 1100-1200 degrees Celsius, while pure iron is as high as 1535 degrees. When the carbon in the molten iron begins to combine with oxygen in the air, the carbon content in the pig iron gradually decreases, and the temperature of the molten iron continues to increase. Correspondingly, its melting point gradually increases, so the molten iron in the iron furnace becomes extremely thick.
From the beginning, it was like clear soup to the subsequent sauce state, and then from the sauce state to the final jelly state…
Finally, they gathered into very cute iron groups. From a distance, they looked like shot puts, which was very quality.
I don't know these poor "shot puts" yet, and I'm about to be beaten.
After stopping stirring, the workers clamped the shot puts with long pliers and put them under the forging hammer and kept beating them.
There was a sound of tin and the carbon element in the iron mass was squeezed out in the form of elemental graphite. Together with the fine residue inside and the iron oxide debris on the surface, it also contains some high temperature residual temperature. As soon as it came out and passed through the cold air outside, it turned into sparks in the air.
This forging is just to remove some impurities. The process is actually very simple and anyone can do it. That is, you can use pliers to clamp it under the forging hammer and hit it a few times, without any other special requirements.
Also, in fact, the iron is soft in high temperatures, so it is easy to shape and is easy to forge. So, over time, the works of the workers around Hu Yan are of all shapes, iron discus, iron sticks, iron balls...
It was not until Hu Yan couldn't see it anymore, and it was for the sake of convenience of management that he finally announced that he would knock it into an iron rod in the future and no other shapes should be made at will.
Although it is easy to forge the iron, the process of forging the iron is more labor-intensive. The iron is also iron. It takes a lot of effort to clamp the iron for dozens of kilograms of iron to get it.
In addition, it also takes considerable effort when forging, so this matter is not so easy.
Fortunately, there are many workers here, and those who can come here to be a worker have some strength in their hands, so soon, all the knitting irons are being played by specialists, and the speed is not slow.
The so-called "familiar iron" that has been beaten is actually not the familiar iron in the sense of modern textbooks.
In fact, there is no such thing as raw iron in the metallurgical world. In the modern steel industry, domestic iron and steel with carbon content less than 0.02% is called cooked iron, foreign ones call pure iron, with very soft texture; steel with carbon content between 0.02% and 2.11% is called steel; domestic with carbon content above 2.11% is called pig iron, and foreign ones call cast iron.
In ancient times, the blast furnace was directly refined from iron ore, and the ones fried by the iron furnace (steel furnace) were called "cooked iron". The carbon content of this "cooked iron" is inversely proportional to the time of stir-frying. After a long time, the carbon oxidation is much more, the lower the carbon content of iron, and vice versa, so its carbon content can float between 0.01% and 1.5%, including "pure iron" and "steel" in the modern sense.
Therefore, in ancient times, iron stir-frying was equivalent to steel stir-frying, but due to the problems in the process, some of the problems here were difficult to grasp, and eventually the finished products produced were mainly iron and medium and low-carbon steel.
Of course, if you leave, you will be lucky, you will encounter one or two pieces of high-carbon steel.
However, this probability is similar to the current chance of winning the lottery.
