bummins Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 If you are like me and don't like Food poisoning in your base, even though its not much of a threat, then you might be interested in this power efficient or minimal area sterilising room. No need for germ sensor or feedback. you can either replace the Liquid shutoff (if it actually consumes power one day) with another tank+door if you want to be zero power and have more space.

Yunru Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 This will fail as soon as you have any large volume of food poisoning. It takes approximately 3 days to sterilise in chlorine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimgaw Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 The real question here is: why sterilize polluted water? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neotuck Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Mine's only 4*4 and also is power free sterilizes my bathroom, med bay, and shower room extra water and Pdirt is germ free easy to build without debug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulwind Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Sieving for clean water doesn't remove fp germs. So if you're using the sieved water directly, like in an espresso machine, you can infect your colony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neotuck Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Just now, Grimgaw said: Why though? Have you ever played with weak immunity? Once the dupes touch the Pdirt they carry the germs to every thing else they touch including food While I'm sure there are ways to avoid it with lots of micromanaging, it would be easier to simply sterilize the PW before sieving it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about putting both behind one sink, would that work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirt comes out at 75C so unless you're somehow cleaning slimelung out pH2O the food poisoning will be dead before dupe arrives to collect it.

Grimgaw Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Dead in 28s, works for me. Even if they take it beyond sink with some germs in this time the germs will dead before they arrive to wherever they are carrying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutter Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Very nice, Neotuck. I've been sterilizing the clean water (post-sieve) and trying to deal with germs on the polluted dirt with a sink, but as you've clearly explained here, that doesn't work 100%. Don't know why I never thought to clean the pH2O first, this is brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
