Chapter 57: Detailed operation, purification of sulfur (1/2)
The warehouse where the sundries are placed has already piled up a small part of the supplies.
After Somo poured out all the sulfur ore, the sundries warehouse was finally full.
A faint smell emanated from the surface of the ore.
Touched the powdery yellow substance on the ore, Somo lowered his head, picked up a smaller piece, and came to the workbench.
To purify sulfur ore, the process is extremely simple.
It is only necessary to heat the sulfur monomer minerals whose purity seems to be fair at present, and heat them in a distillation flask. When it reaches about 200 degrees Celsius, use a filter to remove impurities that have not melted in a wave to ensure purity.
Wait until the filtration is complete, continue to heat the remaining material, while heating, stir so that the remaining impurities continue to evaporate and filter.
Until the temperature reaches 400 degrees, the sulfur gas will begin to evaporate, and the evaporated sulfur gas will be collected, and after cooling and solidification, relatively pure sulfur can be obtained.
In ancient times, the reason why gunpowder was not developed very early was because it was difficult to extract pure sulfur.
However, under the current workbench, extraction will not be a problem at all.
Go back to the energy room, turn on the generator to supply power, come to the workbench, and turn on the self-check button.
After the red, green, red and green indicator lights turned green after the self-test, Somo put on the robotic arm and started to control the purification.
A complete purification tool has been adapted to the workbench.
The sulphur ore was mashed into broken pieces with a mechanical arm, and the purification vessel was pulled up. It was poured until two-thirds of the time, and Somo began to operate as required.
To purify this thing, you only need the basics of high school chemistry experiment classes to do it easily.
There are excellent quality arc welding, and the heating efficiency is very high.
After a while, it reached the temperature requirement for preliminary filtration. After shaking and swaying, after filtering with the filter, Somo began to heat up again.
This time, the impurities filtered out have been reduced a lot. It is easy to filter again.
When the temperature reached 400 degrees, a trace of yellow gas began to drift away.
opened the valve, and the yellow gas began to float along the pipe into the condenser tube next to it.
As time passed, more and more yellow crystalline powder began to form, and then slipped through the condenser tube into a beaker for collection.
There are experimental addition vessels on the workbench to enhance the efficiency of collection and the speed of heating.
After finishing a whole set of work, Somo estimated according to the fuel consumption of the diesel generator, it should probably take less than 20 minutes.
【Sulfur (Excellent)】
Description: The high-purity sulfur crystals distilled by the craftsman ”Suma”, the process is rigorous, and the scientific concept is followed. For inexplicable reasons, the grade has been upgraded to an excellent level.
Special ability: Burn more fully, when added to a certain item, the power is greater.
Seeing that there is about 300g of sulfur in the beaker, Somo clapped his hands with satisfaction.
Sulfur is a bit delicate and flammable. It must be stored in a cool place.
took out a small wooden cup, put all the purified sulfur into it, and then covered it with a cover.
aimed at a circle of storage, and finally Somo chose to put it in the second bedroom where no one was currently living.
After a day’s fatigue, I have gained a lot.
Nowadays, there is finally a bit of popularity in the huge refuge, there are Oreos, there are kobolds, and two large and small sparkling wild feather chickens.
”Hey, speaking of these two little things, why didn't they come out!”
curiously walked to the crop breeding room, in the corner, Somo found the figure of sparks.
The two chicks looked very tired, relying on each other to lie obediently on the soil of the culture medium.
A few top-notch cabbages were crushed by two wild feather chickens, and they were struggling to survive.
”These two little guys are quite good at choosing a place to sleep. They ran under the sun to sleep and almost crushed my food.”
stared for a while, Sumo was a little bit dumbfounded.
held the bunch of flames on the heads of the two little guys and put them on the ground.
”Hey, what is this?”
Under the place where the two Araha chickens were lying, Somo found a little crystal-like strip.
There are not many strips, about seven or eight, scattered evenly in the medium.
