There are many benefits to mining in space, especially for minerals extracted from space. The return of raw ore to the surface through space elevators is equivalent to the return of useless slag waste. The price of untreated ore is not high in itself, coupled with the transportation costs of space elevators, it is difficult to have price competitiveness in the international market.
Although the cost of space elevator transportation is low, it is not absent.
Future Man Mining itself has its own smelter and does not need to rely on selling unprocessed ore for profit. The processing of ore into finished steel products meets the criterion of maximizing profits.
What’s more, there is no need to worry about pollution in space. Non-toxic waste slag thrown into the atmosphere can be directly burned, which is much more environmentally friendly than garbage disposal stations that destroy the molecular structure of the material through ultra-high temperatures. Toxic wastes are sent directly to the box, with small power rockets flying in the direction of Mercury.
In addition, the vacuum environment makes it very easy to smelt the unusually lively metals with high chemical and chemical properties such as titanium ore in space.
Therefore, as early as last year, Jiang Chen provided Yang Yuan with the interface, specifications, and dimensions of the external space station of Xinghuan City. He told him to design a set of minerals that could be connected to the star ring in the mining research department of the future. Processing unit.
Yang Yuan did not disappoint his expectations and soon took Jiang Chen to the laboratory of Furen Mining.
In the center of the laboratory warehouse, a machine weighing about four large containers lays next to the robots. The shape of the boxy square is much like the active iron room visible on the construction site. It is only a version that is enlarged N times. Of course, this thing is not a metal room, but an accessible space station.
At one end of this space station, a raised interface with a 6×4m cut surface can access the outer ring of the star ring city as a channel for the exchange of material and energy. The ore is input into the space station through the freight channel and processed through special melting equipment to produce a finished ore ingot.
On the side of the space station, there are trademarks of Future Heavy Industries and Future Mining, as well as a symbol of “Fe” being circled.
“This ore processing unit is a prototype that we have customized to the future. The drawings are designed on our side, and they are made by 3D printing technology. The smelting minerals are various kinds of iron ore. The daily processing efficiency is up to 12,000 tons. , the annual steel output is more than three million tons!”
Yang Yuan excitedly glowed red when he said this.
With a highly automated design, a workshop needs only four workers to complete production. The second-generation electrosmelting technology replaces the traditional steel-making process. Recycling is a carbon-fixing technology that can maximize the utilization efficiency of each kilogram of coal, and can produce hundreds of high-quality carbon steels, tool steels, and high-strength A-steels. Just now.
Combining the core technologies of the future mining industry, this ore processing unit tailored for outer space steelmaking has taken the lead in the world of automated steelmaking for at least two decades, and it is not an exaggeration to claim that it is the crystallization of technology!
“This prototype has passed the performance testing test in a vacuum environment. It can be used as long as it is shipped through the synchronous track to the Star City.”
“At present, the titanium ore processing unit has completed the design stage and it is expected that it will be able to send the design drawings to the future heavy industry tomorrow, and the prototype will be made available at the end of the month.”
After listening to Yang Yuan’s report, Jiang Chen only asked one question: “How long does it take for mass production?”
Yang Yuan slightly hesitated, but gave a reply soon.
“Before the end of the month, the processing unit production line for the iron ore model has been completed, and in the future, we will be able to deliver our ten machines at the end of the month and we will deliver the remaining ten machines in the middle of next month. A total of twenty processing units, The annual output of the Xinghuan Steel Plant can reach over 30 million tons!”
“As for the titanium ore models, we have to wait until our drawings have been sent to the past and the engineer from there will be able to design the production line.”
……
“Um, back talk.”
Ye Qinghua hung up the phone and leaned back in his chair. The old fingers tapped rhythmically on the armrests, and he fell into a long, silent conversation.
The microgravity laboratories of the China-Star trade cooperation have begun construction. The No. 1 leader highly praised his efforts, but Ye Qinghua is very clear that the research project close to S$1.5 billion is related to his own. Not great.
It has been half a month since he came to Kro Island. During this half month, he has been walking on the islands of New Country, Nine Isles and Penglai. He only felt that he was like entering the Grand View Garden, Liu Ye, all the way to go, all the way strange.
People drive zero-emission electric vehicles, and the submarine tunnels connect the rag-like islands together. It is not without contradictions that people of all skin colors live together harmoniously. However, under the supervision of police drones, few people have put their conflicts into violence.
Yes, once they were rethought, the unmanned drones that had been rejected outside the door almost achieved a zero crime rate in the major cities of the new country.
For Coro and Penglai, the old man’s deepest impression is that drones have become part of the country’s culture. They are the police’s helpers. They replace the firefighters into the fire and deliver the express delivery from the logistics center to the buyer within one hour.
Efficiency is everything in this city, but efficiency does not occupy everyone’s life.
This country seems to have never lacked imagination. Everything here is full of imagination that can only exist in science fiction. A city built on the sea, farmland ploughed under the sea, a track connecting heaven and earth, a larger space station than the city…
Ye Qinghua does not know what they will create next, because the imagination never has boundaries. He just silently took out his notebook and, as in the 80s when he visited the United States to visit Europe, he recorded everything in the city and brought it back to China for reference.
The old man leaned in his chair and sighed. He took out the notebook with a slightly broken leather cover from his arms, and some thought of rubbing the foot of the notebook with his fingers. The news in the past two weeks has not only relieved him but silenced him.
A weak and poor new country is undoubtedly more in line with the interests of the Chinese nation. However, the words “weakness and poverty” are obviously far from the new country. Even because of the concepts such as low crime rate, beautiful environment, Chinese cultural circle, and high-tech city, the new country has already replaced the European and American countries that are trapped in the economic crisis and fear of terrorism and become the richest people in China. One immigration volunteer.
At this moment, the door of the room was pushed open.
Two young men and a woman came in.
“Grandpa, are you looking for me?” The young man in a suit and tie tied his head slightly and reverently said hello to the old man.
The woman opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but the old man spoke first.
“Well, I have some worries,” Ye Qinghua nodded, and smiled at the young man. “So, I would like to ask how you are prepared.”
The leaves smiled oddly and confidently and stood up.
“You can rest assured that I have been preparing for this for the last two weeks. Even if there is not a 10% certainty, it is definitely above 90%!”
Ye Lao nodded with joy.
“This project is very important to us at Ye Family. Now the country attaches great importance to the strategic cooperation with Xinghuan Trading. If our Yip Group can set an example, it is not too difficult for you to mention the position of your uncle again. When the time comes, we will have a provincial and ministerial cadre!”
Speaking with his beloved grandson, leaves strangely left the room.
In the room, only two people remained.
“I…” Ye Feifei bit his teeth and pressed down his head, saying, “I’m not interested in me at all. It’s just me. We’re not suitable. I can’t…”
After a long time, Ye Lao sighed and smiled kindly as the old man loved his granddaughter.
“I will not be difficult for you. Marriage is your choice, if you really do not like it, then forget it.”
Ye Feifei breathed a sigh of relief, as if the big stones pressed in his heart were put down.
She really let her pull her face to please the man she didn’t like. It was even worse than killing her.
“Thank you…”
“Nothing, go on.”
Ye Feifei buried his head and nodded, turned away and left the room.
Ye Lao leaned back in his chair, brooding for a moment, his eyes turned to the invitation on the table.
The new foreign space resources development forum will be held in Korro Island three days later. As a representative sent by the Chinese nation, he naturally received an invitation. What issues should be discussed in the forum, how to help China win more interests, he has already considered this.
He now has some uncertainties about his granddaughter.
Is it really so to give up?
