As early as the 70 ‘s, Nobel Prize in Chemistry winner Melvin · Carl, in the rainforest of Brazil, found a tall evergreen tree called the “parárubber tree” that could produce a small amount of oil similar to diesel as long as it was drilled in the trees.
In 1986, United States took the lead in the artificial cultivation of “petroleum plants.” Subsequently, Britain, France, Japan, Brazil, Philippines, Russia and other countries also successively carried out the research and application of the “petroleum plant,” and established the new green petroleum production bases such as the “petroleum botanical garden” and “petroleum farm”.
Unfortunately, until today, this green energy is still not widely used.
It’s not because it’s bad, it’s about cost and productivity.
Let’s talk about production first.
What is Saudi’s oil production? According to the data released by OPEC, in the 20,218, this figure has exceeded the historical peak of 1250,000 barrels…
EVERY DAY!
Yes, 12500000 barrels a day! Think about what this concept is?
Take United States, which is relatively leading in the field of petroleum plant research, the “petroleum” harvested per hectare of the “petroleum farm” was only about 140 barrels a year. Calculate the width, even if its mass is equivalent to 120 barrels of crude oil. At present United States National Petroleum plant also only “100 hectares, annual production of oil but 1” 2 barrels.
Very intuitive data, has been very intuitive to explain the problem.
United States National Petroleum plants produce less oil than OPEC members do in one day. Of course, it is not the same as the daily production capacity of one State in Texas.
This kind of output, it is obviously impractical to want to shake the status of the petroleum.
Therefore, all countries only use this “petroleum plant” as an alternative development item for energy strategy. They will subsidize these “farms” through various energy and environmental protection policies so that they will not die. After all, no one can say what the future is like.
Perhaps one day, the Middle East has dug out the last drop of oil, and these petroleum plants may have hope to become a life-saving straw to solve the energy crisis.
Of course, there is only hope.
After all, this output is too little!
However, Future Biology’s laboratories have different “Petroleum Palm Tree” research. You only need to put a small mouth on it so that you can flow a full 10 liters of sap from the bottom of the bark! A barrel of oil equals 159 liters and 16 trees will produce a barrel of oil. And this kind of sap can be collected once a week!
According to an acre of land can grow 100 such “petroleum Palm Tree” to calculate, an acre of average daily output has been close to 1 barrels of oil!
“100 mu is the daily output of 100 barrels of oil. It only needs to plant a “1 million mu of this” “Petroleum Palm Tree”, and then cover several refineries that are specially used to refine this sap. Don’t say it is country of Xin’s energy needs can be met, even to the next door to the petroleum import nation export, I am afraid that is enough!
After coming out of Future Biology’s laboratory, Jiang Chen immediately ordered that while fully purchasing oil palms on the market, on the other hand, Tao Ming urged the laboratories to do their utmost to deal with special methods such as induced differentiation of these acquired oil palms. .
The former is very easy to do, oil palm this plant is very common in Luzon Island, Mindanao Island, New Guinea and even Country of Xin. Jiang Chen called in a phone call. Santos, apart from anything else, organized the farmers of the Country of Moro into the mountains, used trucks and tractors to pull 1 million pounds of palm oil to Davao Port and sold them to the Future Group at a reasonable price.
This amount is more than enough for Mindanao Island, who is rich, and Santos is complacent about making a fortune. Jiang Chen paid him less than 20 million USD, and he needed to pay those farmers no more than 11 million.
Regarding where the Petroleum Palm Tree was planted, Jiang Chen gave up his intention to plant in the Philippines after some meticulous deliberations.
This kind of good thing is better in your own country. Although Philippines has become the star ring trading de facto dependency, but the monkeys are outsiders, Cold war when the Japanese-American relationship so iron, Japan has not sold a few Russians five-axis linkage cnc Machine Tool?
In order to ensure that these petroleum plants can be produced in low cost, all Petroleum Palm Trees must be grown in the country, and plant cultivation techniques and DNA code must be kept strictly confidential! The reason why Jiang Chen gave these researchers, especially Bill Sullivan, so many bonuses, is also a disguise of sealing fees.
However, the area of 100 mu is not small at all, and the area of the entire Koro Island is only a hundred thousand mu. It is impossible to squeeze all the houses apart, let alone to cultivate 1 million mu of Petroleum Palm Tree as the petroleum. Exporting country.
Seabed Farm is also good at farming crops, but a few meters tall palm trees are a little unscientific.
For the first time, Jiang Chen was so worried about the size of the territory.
But in the end, he came up with a solution.
Next to Penglai City, build an area and Penglai city almost large plantation.
These plantations do not need to be built according to the standards of the island. They only need to build an offshore platform with a length of approximately 250 meters and a width of approximately 250 meters. The above-mentioned plantations are filled with soil, and then these platforms are connected with graphene cables to form a “checkerboard” shape. Offshore plantation.
Of course, if you want to think about it, you need to ask the experts who can do it.
However, Jiang Chen estimates that the difficulty should not be too great. With graphene’s strength, it should not be too difficult to withstand this tidal force. This floating farmland, the cost of one-time investment is certainly much cheaper than Seabed Farm.
As for how to deal with storms or other bad weather, this will be given to the technicians of Future Heavy Industry to perfect it. When building Penglai City, they have accumulated a wealth of experience in offshore construction. This small issue for them, the difficulty should not be too big to be right.
……
September passed quickly and October quietly.
Compared to the previous period of turbulence, September can be said to be well-organized, nothing too much trouble. The Turkish Civil War has been taken over by the government forces and peace talks seem to be coming soon.
With the exception of Madagascar’s Civil War still continuing, the Ukrainian issue continued to ferment due to the Russian crisis, and the global situation seems to be approaching a relatively mild period as the Northern Hemisphere is about to enter the winter.
Of course, it is only relatively speaking.
The international crude oil market is still filled with invisible smoke, an invisible hand is holding the market, so that the global economy has cast a gloom.
Future Group’s business has also been affected, but compared to other international companies, it is still much better. The future group under the trust model, while producing products, is also producing industrial materials, although the price of oil has led to a series of resource prices, such as ore, agricultural products, but the impact of future group only comes from oil prices.
These days, Jiang Chen’s life is very regular. The daytime from Monday to Friday is basically in the Future Group’s Chairman of the BoardOffice. On Saturdays, he will take half a day and go to Koro University to teach those lovely students.
They did not expect to learn what they could learn. After all, those who came to public elective classes did not expect to learn anything. Jiang Chen only hoped that they could subtly change their ideas in this way.
As for the rest of the time, he would basically stay in the last of the days.
Fortunately, he is also Marshal, and it is still necessary to maintain the “attendance rate” for stabilizing the military. Even if not in the overall situation, showing a face is still necessary.
In addition, he also wants to spend time with the “family” there.
Since Wanghai city’s crisis has been lifted and the pace of earthly expansion has taken off, he has been major to the last of the days. Even as compensation, he would like to spend more time with sun Jiao, Yao Yao them. For him, they are very important people in his life.
