* To run all showers etc, you can prime the pipes with a bit of clean water, and then just purify the waste water sending it back to the showers. At this point my water consumption is effectively zero with a colony of 12+. After an initial ~500kg to prime the pipes I haven't us...
Your system is producing enough petroleum to run 3 petroleum generators continuously so if you count that you will not only have an even bigger energy surplusbut also 2250 g/s of polluted water that you can boil using an aquatuner. (since you said sieves are off-limits) The cooling from ...
Make more air or purify same you says ? How am I going to do this since I can not find enough Algea to keep feeding the machines ? And I can not use the Electrolyzer since I am almost out of clean water and polluted water will both ruin Electrolyzer (or so says info found onl...
4) Water recycling is not needed. Polluted water is too expensive to treat by sand and energy. Just pool it somewhere for use of magma/steam/battery chambers to purify later in the game using waste heat. Some people don't even bother to treat polluted water, which is possible even at 5...
And there can be plenty of different polutants, not all that are good for the proliferation of organic life. But by default "polluted" here sems to be "favorable to the proliferaion of germs", aka oranic life, so we an easily imagine that the 'polluted water' output from terraiums si...
I think it might be cool if they did not spawn in the temperate biome, instead, you had to find them in polluted water and purify the water essentially taming them. Side note, any ideas for what kind of fish it should be? I'm thinking a cute puffer fish that becomes really not ...
Polluted Dirt come out. Same as Water Purifier, but for gases... and also germs. Granted, it takes more setup because you'll need to do the research and get the ducts all laid out. But it's not too difficult to contain a region of contaminated air long enough to get a Gas Pump ...
