Chapter 402: Empirical Formula

"How's the situation inside?" Raddell, who had just flown from the capital, smoked Marlboro in annoyance, and threw his cigarette butt to the ground.

"I don't know, the materials transported in look quite normal, mainly solanesol, and some ethanol and propylene ml are commonly used solvents, and the amount is not large. "The British who came with me didn't look very energetic, they either flew in overnight, or went out in the early morning, and they were very sleepy.

Radel lit another cigarette and asked, "Is solanesol refined?

"Of course, it is refined solanesol, produced in China, invested by our company, from ......" This person looked at the paper in his hand, commented on a "Yunnan", and said: "There are supporting factories of tobacco companies there, producing crude solanesol, and then shipping it to ......"

"Got it. Radel didn't bother to listen, and then asked, "What about the other things? How many exactly?"

"I don't know, I can't get in now, Yang's lawyer looks at it, these materials are still provided by the Chinese themselves." ”

"Did you verify?"

"Verified, Chinese officials don't care about that. "They were all technicians who had spent some time in China, and the British were familiar with the temperament of Chinese officials. Of course, the bureaucracy of the British Empire was also a general one, which made it easier for the British to understand China.

Radel stomped his feet and said, "I didn't expect a Chinese to find a lawyer so quickly, and he left earlier than us, hmm...... Did Yang Rui block the news?"

"How can it be blocked, the manager of WestJet to manage production is sent by Jielikang, a native of Hong Kong. He was sure that he called earlier than Yang Rui. ”

"But Yang Rui knows better than us what is going on and how important the situation in the workshop is. Damn, can't you just let us go in and have a look?"

The Englishmen who were with them were silent. They actually tried to enter, but after being firmly stopped by Yang Rui, the domestic headquarters did not support them to forcibly enter. Because the British technicians present are all very ordinary technicians.

In a multinational company like Jielikang, the headquarters research institute is naturally full of PhDs, and the master's degree is not as good as a dog, but in the Asia-Pacific region, Jielikang does not have enough to send excellent researchers to act as technicians.

In the field of coenzyme QL0, Yang Rui has stood at the top of the world more than once or twice, although it is not very important in the academic field, but Yang Rui's level has also been recognized by Jielikang. Every cooperation between the two sides is a pile of real money.

In contrast, the research headquarters of JieliZeneca has nothing to mention in terms of coenzyme QL0, not to mention the technicians sent in the Far East, whose main job is to look at the technical maintenance brochure and ensure the normal operation of Jielizen's factory in a step-by-step manner.

Jielizene's headquarters was concerned that even if Radel and others were allowed to force their way into the WestJet plant, they would not be able to make reasonable inferences based on their level of experience and knowledge.

If you want to enter the workshop to observe the situation, it is more of a spontaneous behavior of these technicians.

They had also been in the coenzyme QL0 business for a few years, and as soon as they got the news of the WestJet plant, several researchers who realized that the situation was special quickly arrived.

It's a pity that no matter how fast they are, they are not as fast as Yang Rui on the scene.

Yang Rui also knows better than them the development of coenzyme QL0.

What kind of technology, what kind of coenzyme QL0 can be produced and what can be obtained at worst, have been summarized in considerable detail in later generations.

It's like penicillin, in the 6s, there were very few companies that could produce penicillin, and they couldn't control the production and quality, so they could only try to give a better production environment, but in the 8s, the production of penicillin was very transparent, and it was up to the manufacturer to choose if you wanted to spend a little more money to get high-quality penicillin, or to take an economical way to get ordinary penicillin, or to use a year less money to produce penicillin that was not so stable to treat dìng.

The technology adopted by Yang Rui should have put forward higher requirements for the plant.

The low cleanliness plant produces a good quality coenzyme QL0 with such variability, which is quite valuable.

In other words, what's happening at WestJet's plant is pretty much the most economical way to achieve with the second-generation plant extraction method.

This state is not something that can be calculated computationally.

Researchers, or factory technicians, often have to work and try for a long time to find the best ratio for factory production.

Temperature, pressure, concentration, solid-liquid ratio, extraction time, and even the addition time of propylene ethanol can all affect the final result.

Of course, orthogonal experiments can be tried in the real room, but in the factory, analyzing environmental factors is enough for researchers to drink a pot.

Not every generation of technology can achieve the optimal ratio.

Using aircraft technology as an example, does the biplane have to develop to the peak in order to develop the monoplane? Is it the propeller aircraft that has to develop to the peak in order to develop the aircraft?

Of course not.

On the contrary, many technologies are not cost-effective to develop to the top, and it is the most normal choice to adopt new technologies and surpass high-level old technologies with medium-level new technologies.

Top-of-the-line old technologies are often developed by chance, rather than being forced to research at a cost of money.

In Yang Rui's view, now is the time for coincidence.

As he searched his mind for technology, he recorded all the numbers on the meter, and he even had a camera come in and take pictures of every variable imaginable.

After doing this, a day and a night passed, Yao Yue was busy making records, and only during the day was he a little more leisurely, looking at the red bloodshot in Yang Rui's eyes, and said, "If it really doesn't work, take a day off first, and then do it tomorrow." ”

"No, the wolves outside are waiting, if we find the reason, they will probably do things according to the contract, if we can't find it, Jielikang will also find a way to get in." "It's the eve of the price war, and this method that will obviously reduce costs, and Jielizen definitely wants to study it.

"Then don't stay up too long, I'll let someone boil some porridge and bring it in." Yao Yue rubbed her eyes and looked at Yang Rui worriedly.

"Can't eat in the workshop...... Yang Rui looked up at the messy workshop, and then at the hungry workers, and said with a smile: "Forget it, let them bring in something to eat." ”

The workers let out a soft cheer, and He Haichuan, who was familiar with Yang Rui, smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Yang, I thought you weren't hungry." ”

He Haichuan is a technician in the biochemical workshop of the Xibao Meat Factory, and now he is also the main force of the WestJet Factory, he has learned a lot of things from Yang Rui, and he is even more cooperative with Yang Rui, the workers of the WestJet Factory can insist on not leaving for a day and a night, without stopping work, all relying on He Haichuan, Ning Min, and Tian Shichang and others from the Rui Group to help maneuver and manage.

Yang Rui sighed and said, "No one knows what the situation is, and I don't know how long it will last, we can't keep adjusting the working conditions, I seem to have heard the alarm just now?"

"There was a steam pipe that was too much pressure and now it's fine. But it really can't be kept that way for long. "The factory is not like a real room, all kinds of values are floating in a large range, and not every value is easy to adjust, such as pipeline pressure, more steam is more pressure, less steam is less pressure is small, but the amount of steam is burned out of the boiler, not a button on the computer.

Thirty years later, some unattended high-automation machines in Europe and the United States can finely adjust the working conditions of the factory, but those are worth tens of millions or even billions of machines, not to mention that there is no such technology in the 8s, even if there is, Chinese companies cannot afford to use it. The same is boiler, it is common for foreigners to use heavy oil and natural gas, and Chinese companies can use coal to use coal, and even good coal is reluctant, and they have to use cheap goods with low calorific value to be competitive.

Although the WestJet plant is a new factory invested by the British, it is also a new factory at the Far East level in 1983, and some parameters are easy to adjust, some are difficult to adjust, and they have begun to affect production.

"Make another set and stick to it. Yang Rui said that he personally went into battle, helping to fill materials and record parameters.

He Haichuan didn't say anything, and went back to make arrangements.

Fortunately, the WestJet factory has a small number of workers, a total of more than a dozen workers, although everyone is tired and hungry, they can still persevere under one-on-one comfort.

Not long after, when the food arrived, a new plate of coenzyme QL0 was produced, which was still the size of a grain of rice and the result of a lower gloss, but the quantity was a quarter less.

This is a precursor to the deviation of the parameters from the design indicators.

Yang Rui sighed and said, "End the test, you can adjust the equipment according to the regulations." ”

Although there is information in his mind, after all, he doesn't know everything, some mainstream technologies, even if Yang Rui has not been exposed to them when he is studying, he still needs to understand, but if he is a little out of the way, he may not necessarily understand it.

The peculiarity of coenzyme QL0 is that there has never been a chemical synthesis method, which makes the researchers of coenzyme QL0 constantly go between plant extraction method and microbial method, and during this period, I don't know how many patented technologies are registered and used.

Several times in a row, Yang Rui researched while looking for information, and finally found a few papers that were a little similar to those written in the UU era, discussing the relationship between the temperature and concentration of the material, but it was also a pure empirical summary, knowing the principle of reverse deduction of the results, how much can make up something, but to say that there is any profound scientific truth, it is not true.

However, the science is weaker, but its economy is highlighted.

The relationship between the temperature, concentration and pressure of the material is not constant, but changes according to the overall conditions in the production process.

As the temperature changes, the concentration and pressure should also be set to a special value...... And how to set it up, there are a series of formulas that are accurate or inaccurate.

Few papers will write this kind of formula involving patents, just like Yang Rui publishes a paper, and will hide a few core points to ensure his technological leadership.

However, the technical core of later generations is different after all, Yang Rui is comparing, writing and painting by himself.

"The equipment is adjusted. Not long after, He Haichuan came to report.

"Produce another set of products. ”

"Understood. ”

This time, the newly produced coenzyme QL0 has changed dramatically.

The crystals have become smaller, the largest being only half the size of a grain of rice, and most importantly, a bullet can be seen in the crystals.

"It's fifth-class. He Haichuan scratched his head and couldn't understand how the instruments and equipment he adjusted according to the regulations could have undergone such a huge change.

"This is a normal product, Tian Shichang, from now on, every group of you produce, you must record the parameters, and after ten groups of production, you will stop production, and wait for the clean workshop to be done again." After Yang Rui finished speaking, he walked around the workshop, greeted everyone, and went out.

At the door, Radel and Zheng Jianming were already waiting for it.
