Chapter 99
About ten days later, the report submitted by the petrochemical branch was placed in front of Guan Yuntian. He flipped through it briefly. It contained about twenty pages, not including the treatment plan for the spent catalyst.
Guan Yuntian handed the report to Director Wang of the group company's technical department and asked him to read it before convening a meeting with relevant personnel to discuss the implementation plan.
Director Wang is a senior engineer at a design institute in the provincial capital. He is in his sixties and met Guan Yuntian at an industry conference. Last year, he took a back seat in the workplace and was invited by Guan Yuntian to be the technical director of Changda Group.
In the afternoon of that day, Guan Yuntian informed Ye Jiayi to summon relevant personnel from the technical department and petrochemical branch to the conference room for a meeting.
Guan Yuntian presided over the meeting: "Our petrochemical branch plant has been targeted by the environmental protection department again. Now it has put forward higher requirements for the direct incineration of refinery exhaust gas and the treatment of industrial wastewater throughout the plant. We have convened a meeting today with the purpose of determining a suitable set of
During the discussion, separate the issues and first determine the treatment plan for the refinery exhaust. The Technical Department of the Petrochemical Branch submitted a report. Relevant personnel from the Group's Technical Department also saw this material. Please share your views.
, speak freely and don’t have any scruples.”
Director Wang of the Technical Department then spoke: "I have read the report of the branch factory. The treatment plan they proposed is feasible. Moreover, large refineries at home and abroad basically use the gas cabinet method to recycle exhaust gas. There is no more environmentally friendly treatment method.
Almost adding a set of desulfurization equipment and deacidification equipment.”
"What Mr. Wang means is that we can just follow the plan provided by the branch factory?" Guan Yuntian said.
"The principle of the scheme is the same in refineries at home and abroad. The only thing that needs further clarification is which process is used. In addition, the branch plant's report does not mention the treatment capacity of the exhaust gas. When selecting equipment, the equipment supplier needs to
I hope we can clarify this data."
"Mr. Wang just mentioned the treatment level. What do you mean by desulfurization and deacidification?" Guan Yuntian asked.
"Refinery exhaust generally contains acidic components and sulfur-containing compounds. A more thorough treatment plan is to remove the acidic components and sulfur-containing compounds from the exhaust gas. Of course, this is another set of processes and requires investment in other equipment." Petrochemical Industry
Factory manager Zhu took it over.
"Investment in equipment is not a problem. My opinion is that since there are requirements for environmental protection, it is better to do it in one step to avoid trouble in the future." Guan Yuntian said.
Technical Director Lao Wang agrees with this opinion, "Mr. Guan has great foresight. According to the development of the situation, environmental protection issues will receive more and more attention, and the requirements will only become more stringent. I also think that desulfurization and deacidification should be taken into consideration."
Guan Yuntian didn't want meaningless discussions to take up too much time. He made a decision on the spot, "The exhaust gas treatment has been decided like this. The plan is to build a new gas cabinet recovery device and add desulfurization and deacidification equipment. The technology department based on the information provided by the petrochemical branch
The basic situation of the refinery will be determined, the specific process route will be determined, and the equipment details will be proposed and submitted to the Finance Department for investment estimation. Next, we will discuss the sewage treatment of the refinery. Manager Zhu, please talk about the current situation."
"The current treatment method for industrial wastewater from petrochemical plants is simple acid-base neutralization and graded precipitation." Manager Zhu said.
"How is the treatment effect? Have you tested it?" Guan Yuntian asked.
"The treatment effect----of course does not meet the environmental emission standards."
"Manager Zhu, has the Environmental Protection Bureau sampled and tested the treated sewage from the petrochemical branch? Do they have specific test results?" Director Wang asked.
"The specific situation is not clear because they randomly inspected
They didn’t say hello to us, but the environmental monitoring station sent us two test reports.”
"Are the results of the monitoring station consistent with our testing data?" Guan Yuntian said.
"Mr. Guan, because the sampling time and location of the monitoring station are not completely synchronized with our factory laboratory, the testing data from both sides are not comparable and can only be used as a reference."
"In the test report of the monitoring station, which indicators reflect that our handling is unqualified?"
"After the sewage is treated, the pH and hardness of the discharged water are not a big problem, but the two important indicators are unqualified."
"Which two items?"
"Biological oxygen demand and chemical oxygen demand, also known as BOD and COD, are both unqualified."
"Oh----, if these are two important indicators, then we should really pay attention to them. Is it technically difficult to make these two indicators qualified?" Guan Yuntian said.
Director Wang took over, "There are no technical obstacles. Similar technologies have been widely used in the sewage treatment process of large petrochemical companies. As long as a treatment plan is selected, the rest is equipment investment."
Also let the company's technical department make the plan, and after the equipment details are proposed, they will be handed over to the finance department to make an investment budget.
Guan Yuntian has been exhausted physically and mentally by environmental protection issues during this period. The dust removal and desulfurization measures of the power plant are in the preparation stage. The issues of exhaust gas treatment and sewage compliance at the petrochemical branch are coming one after another. Each of these items is closely watched by the environmental protection department.
In order to implement the work quickly, for a while, the group company seemed to be a little short of manpower.
There is no doubt about the work efficiency of the company's technical department. The technical plan was determined in two or three days and a detailed list of equipment was also proposed.
The original plan was to leave the package of matters such as finding technical cooperation units and determining suitable equipment suppliers to Ye Jiayi, but currently the desulfurization and dust removal technology cooperation in the power plant is under intense negotiation, and Ye Jiayi obviously does not have enough time.
There was no other way, so Guan Yuntian had no choice but to go into battle in person. He came forward to negotiate with the technical cooperation unit. This was certainly not a problem for him, because he had personally negotiated and introduced the first few projects of the company.
Guan Yuntian looked at the investment estimate and found that refinery exhaust gas recovery and deacidification and desulfurization equipment would require an investment of more than 100 million yuan, and sewage treatment equipment would not be less than 50 million yuan.
Such a large-scale equipment purchase will of course require over-bidding to determine the final equipment supplier.
Because neither Guan Yuntian nor Ye Jiayi had time to consider equipment procurement, he transferred four people from the purchasing department and three from the technical department of the group company to form an environmental protection equipment bidding review team, headed by Manager Hao from the purchasing department and Director Wang from the technical department.
Chairman and deputy leader of the review team.
Manager Hao is nearly fifty years old. Before that, he worked as a buyer for a local tire manufacturing company. Old Hao is Zhou Yuanyuan’s biological uncle. Seeing that he has relatively rich purchasing experience, plus Zhou Yuanyuan’s face, Guan Yuntian let
He joined Changda Company and was appointed manager of the purchasing department of the group company.
All large-scale procurement plans of the group company have always adopted a bidding method to determine suppliers. Every time a bid is invited, Guan Yuntian or Ye Jiayi serves as the review team leader. Although you are the manager of the purchasing department of the group company, you have nothing to do with Manager Hao. This is
Once, because Guan Yuntian and Ye Jiayi couldn't take care of each other, he was made the leader of the review team. In order to take professionalism into consideration, Guan Yuntian also specially entrusted the technical department to participate.
Based on the equipment detailed list, the bidding review team issued bid invitations to equipment manufacturing companies across the country. Within a few days,
During the period, we received many bids from bidders.
The review panel consists of seven people. Guan Yuntian's purpose was to prevent a stalemate during the bid opening process due to an equal number of votes for and against. He transferred four people from the procurement department to the review panel, only to consider their comparison of the procurement business.
Familiar with it, but this unintentionally brings hidden dangers to the upcoming target review work.
In the subsequent bid opening process, Manager Hao of the Procurement Department basically took the lead in deciding whether to submit each bid. Technical Director Lao Wang, as the deputy leader of the review team, almost became a bystander. Because almost all of Lao Wang’s opinions were
It was rejected by Manager Hao. During the voting, there were often four votes from the Purchasing Department and three votes from the Technology Department. Whether to approve or reject a certain bidding company to enter the next round was completely controlled by Manager Hao.
Out of professional ethics, Mr. Wang communicated with Manager Hao and argued with each other, but to no avail. Later, Lao Wang basically stopped expressing his opinions, but he still made decisions based on his own judgment when it came to voting.
After the bidding ended, all equipment suppliers were decided, and Manager Hao handed the signed contract to the company's finance department, which was regarded as completing the task.
The contract needs to be stamped with the official seal of the unit to be effective. During the review process, the contract management personnel of the Finance Department found that all contracts did not have quality guarantee clauses, which was not in compliance with the regulations in equipment procurement.
The relevant personnel called Lao Hao to inquire, but Lao Hao found an excuse. Because the other party was the manager of the purchasing department and was related to Mr. Guan, the contract management personnel had no choice but to report the situation to Guan Yuntian.
Looking through the contracts signed by Lao Hao, there was indeed no quality guarantee clause, which made Guan Yuntian feel unusual.
He called the purchasing department and asked, "You are an experienced purchaser. Don't you have such common sense?" Guan Yuntian asked Lao Hao, the manager of the purchasing department.
Manager Hao explained: "The quality deposit is not much. Those who sign contracts with us are all star companies in the industry. The quality is absolutely guaranteed, so charging a deposit is a bit redundant."
Guan Yuntian was disgusted with Manager Hao's explanation, but he did not have an attack. After all, Manager Hao was Zhou Yuanyuan's biological uncle. Speaking of which, Guan Yuntian had to call Old Hao his uncle. He was his elder and a very close relative.
He has to save face for the other party.
"You should tell me about this kind of thing first." Guan Yuntian hung up the phone, obviously very dissatisfied with this uncle-in-law.
Sitting on the chair and sulking, Guan Yuntian felt that something was wrong about this matter, "Isn't Mr. Wang from the technical department also present? He is also the deputy team leader of the review and has spent his whole life in a provincial design institute. He should have this experience!
Why didn’t he remind me about the quality guarantee deposit?”
Guan Yuntian dialed the number of the technical director Lao Wang's office, "Mr. Wang, there is something I want to ask."
"Hello, Mr. Guan, what can I do for you?"
"After the bidding ended, we signed supply contracts with the equipment suppliers that won the bid. Why didn't we leave a part of the quality deposit?"
"Oh, is there such a thing? I didn't know!" Lao Wang was also surprised.
"Don't you know? You are the deputy team leader of the review, how could you not know?" Guan Yuntian was quite surprised by Lao Wang's answer.
"Mr. Guan, there are some things that are hard to talk about. Anyway, we will basically not be involved in what happens next."
