    "I will let the Taoist Master know." Chen Wanrong began to explain in detail: "To make good medicine, you need ether, and to get ether, you need sulfuric acid"

    Zheng Qing interrupted him: "Wait a minute. I have to write down such an important thing. To do this, a lot of manpower is needed. When you go to Beidi, ask the Taoist Priest to teach the grantor on your behalf and organize it."  One portion is necessary.¡±

    "Wonderful!" Chen Wanrong and Sima Chengzhen high-fived at the same time.

    Sulfuric acid is known as the mother of industry. It has a wide range of uses. It is only used to make artemisinin. It can also be used for printing and dyeing, and for preparing smokeless explosives. Its uses are so wide that a monograph can be written.  It can be said that starting with sulfuric acid, the next step is a systematic project, which requires so many manpower, and it is very necessary to cultivate it well.

    He found paper and pen and spread them on the table. Qing'e helped him grind the ink. Zheng Qing held the pen in her hand and looked at Chen Wanrong: "You can say it now."

    Chen Wanrong thought for a while and said: "Let's talk about making ether first. My wife has prepared this with me. The requirements are not high, but we need to pay attention to one thing. The raw materials must not contain water, otherwise a disproportionation reaction will occur. The so-called disproportionation reaction  The chemical reaction is a side reaction. The Taoist priest has superb medical skills. When he knows that when a doctor treats a disease, some medicines may cause discomfort after taking some medicines. This is a side effect caused by the medicine. The disproportionation reaction is similar to this. If the disproportionation reaction is too severe, you will get  There¡¯s just too little ether.¡±

    Sima Chengzhen immediately understood such a metaphor, nodded and said: "How to prevent the raw materials from containing water? In Pindao's opinion, it is very difficult to prevent the raw materials from containing water."

    After spending such a long time with Chen Wanrong, Sima Chengzhen's horizons have been greatly broadened and his knowledge has become much wider. This hit home.

    Chen Wanrong admired his reaction very much: "The Taoist Master has a good eye. He got the idea right away when he asked. This is not difficult. There are many methods, but there are not many we can use now. It depends on  For zeolite, boil the zeolite to dryness, let it cool, and then put it in sulfuric acid and alcohol to absorb water. Zeolite can be used repeatedly, and by repeating it a certain number of times, you can get raw materials without water."

    Zheng Qing added: "The zeolite no longer absorbs water, that is, it becomes dry, which proves that there is no water in the raw materials." Thinking back to the time when she and Chen Wanrong developed a relationship while doing chemical engineering, she couldn't help but feel sweet.

    Chen Wanrong continued to explain: "Put the treated alcohol and sulfuric acid into the equipment, add a little zeolite, and heat it to prepare ether. At this time, zeolite is added to absorb the water generated during the reaction. This process  It's very simple. There is one critical point: the temperature must be controlled well. If the temperature is not well controlled, a disproportionation reaction will occur. Fortunately, now that thermometers are made, it is not difficult to control the temperature."

    After Kou Yibing¡¯s hard work during this period, he made the thermometer over and over again. Finally, he got more and more experience with the thermometer. Chen Wanrong was satisfied with the thermometer.

    Temperature is one of the most important parameters in chemical production. With a thermometer, temperature control is much easier.  This is a big step forward, no less important than the development of vectorization in chemical industry.

    Sima Chengzhen listened very carefully and kept nodding: "My little friend, is there anything else important?"

    "Yes!" Chen Wanrong warned: "Ether is more harmful to people. If it is inhaled in excess, it will kill people. Use it in an appropriate amount, it can anesthetize, and it is better than Ma Fei powder. It is best for bone healing. It can  Reduce human suffering.¡±

    "Is there such a wonderful use?" Sima Chengzhen was a little disbelieving, but also excited: "I understand, you must be particularly careful in the preparation and preservation of ether."

    Chen Wanrong admired his understanding very much, and then talked about some things that need to be paid attention to when using and preparing ether, and then said: "With ether, you can prepare good medicine. After picking the wormwood, crush it first, and be sure to finely  , otherwise the extraction efficiency will be low, and then dry it in the sun. After drying, soak it in ether. After soaking, separate and recover the ether to obtain a crude product. The crude product can then be refined and used to treat diseases."

    Since it was discovered that artemisinin can be used to treat malaria, countries around the world have been scrambling to research it. However, the most advanced technology is still in China.  After so many years of research, various methods for extracting artemisinin have emerged.  Chen Wanrong's method is not the best, but it is the most applicable method under the current circumstances.

    If there is propylene glycol, the artemisinin produced will be even better.  However, where can Chen Wanrong find propylene glycol now? He can only prepare it by taking advantage of the fact that artemisinin is easily soluble in ether.

    Sima Chengzhen had never heard of this kind of thing. He was both surprised and pleasantly surprised.  In any case, being able to prepare medicine to treat severe cold and fever is more important than anything else, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't get excited.

    Next, there is another detailed guide.  Wait until Sima Cheng?Crops need fertilizer, usually farmyard manure, which is collected from the excrement of some people and livestock.  The problem with this method is obvious, that is, if there are too few people or livestock, the fat will not be enough.  "

    "People are alive and cannot be suffocated to death!" Chen Laoshi rushed in and said excitedly: "When it comes to this kind of crops, I am a mud-legged person. I have been working as a mud-legged person for decades and have some experience. Late.  Rong, Dad told you that if the fertilizer is not enough, you can also go to the mountains to find a good plot, scrape the land, and burn it with firewood. Wouldn't it mean that there will be more fat? Wanrong, didn't Dad always teach you this?  What to do? Have you forgotten it again now? Even if you become a general, you can¡¯t forget your roots!¡±

    He has been a farmer for decades, and when he talks about growing crops, he is quite proud.

    These words were so inappropriate that Chen Wanrong held back his laughter and asked: "Dad, you said that the people near Chang'an are too far away from the mountains, how can they accumulate fat?"

    "This?" Chen Laoshi was stunned for a moment, then immediately smiled: "You can also burn grass roots and straw."

    This is also a way of accumulating fertilizer, but the fertilizer effect is limited.  Chen Wanrong asked again: "Dad, do you think the people around Chang'an can make enough money just by saving money like this?"

    For the common people, no matter how much fertilizer they accumulate, it is not enough. Just burning some grass roots and straw is far from enough. Chen Laoshi was speechless for a moment. He was stunned for a moment and asked: "Wan Rong, is there anything else you can do?  "

    "Isn't that what I'm talking about?" Chen Wanrong nodded.

    Mrs. Chen Wang came in and said with great interest: "Wanrong, if you have a way, tell us and let us listen. Old man, please don't interrupt and let Wanrong talk properly."

    Chen Laoshi said oh several times before he said anything.

    Chen Wanrong ignored him and continued: "We all know that there are many kinds of minerals, such as iron ore, saltpeter ore, and sulfur ore. In addition to these, there is also a kind of mineral called phosphate rock. This kind of ore is very good.  Fertilizer. Of course, to be used as fertilizer, it must be processed, which requires the use of acid, such as sulfuric acid. Phosphate rock contacts sulfuric acid and undergoes a chemical reaction to produce phosphate fertilizer, which can be used to grow crops."

    To maintain a good health, people need nutrition.  Similarly, crops also need "nutrition" to grow well. The main role of phosphate fertilizer is that phosphorus is a component of plant cell protoplasm and plays an important role in cell growth and proliferation.  At the same time, photosynthesis and the transfer of sugar and starch all require phosphorus.

    Therefore, phosphorus is an essential and important fertilizer for crops.

    It was something that no one could have imagined that fertilizer could be obtained through this method. Sima Chengzhen and the others opened their mouths unnaturally.  (To be continued.
