Jube Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 I was thinking about abussing geyser near my base. I never have done gas generator so what i have to keep in mind? Do i need like hall for the gas and the generator. I have also seen people using water at the bottom of hall. Is it necessary?

Masterpintsman Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Put a pump at the natural gas geyser (and build a box of tiles around both to keep the gas from spreading) to feed the natural gas to the similary named genertor, pipe the CO2 from the generator toward a scrubber/storage.

Kasuha Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Also consider the generator will spill polluted water - put it on mesh tiles and build a reservoir with a pump below it, or build it above your polluted water pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Normally the geyser will be outside your base in the swamp biome, meaning you will have a pool of polluted water around anyway. Like Kasuha said, put on mesh tiles towards the pool. Keep the geyser walled in. You do not want the gas spreading around. Put a pump up there at the Geyser, wall it off, build a wire bridge and connect it to HW wires. The bigger issue is CO2. As mentioned you should scrub it (as I'm doing now) eventually. You can get away with it for a while with storing it, but in the end you will have to get rid through scrubbing. I'd say store until you have sufficient means to clean polluted water.

I build big old rooms around my natural geysers as soon as possible to allow the gas to start building up - gives me time to get the rest of my NGG's set up and in place, and leaves me with a monstrous backlog of gas for when I need it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
