Also, manually making brine from hot salt water (95ºC) instead of only using the desalinator can provide water colder than 85ºC. But supercoolant is required for that build and you're talking about cooling water, this would be about making water too. I like your guides. They're interesting.

DimaB77 Posted April 25, 2021 Author Share Posted April 25, 2021 Of course, I didn't think of that. The effectiveness is questionable, but... all ways are good. I'll be sure to add it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gabberworld Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 AETN can be used multi way as well. i use sometimes like this, first i make at there all preparations like adding the all needed pipes gas, liquid. then bring there water and bury AETN inside ice, this makes for him the buffer then instead off using the aetn directly, make at some other place the cooling buffer, water or whatever you need, and start use that, also for cooling its not good idea using the water inside pipes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimaB77 Posted April 25, 2021 Author Share Posted April 25, 2021 The AETN does not have a large performance of 80 kDTU/s. This is too low for cooling water. Apparently your and JRup's use of it, allow you to get more out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

degr Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 You need too cool water only in 2 cases: No gold, no steel Absolutely nothing to do You need water for: toilets recreation scientific discoveries oxygen production oil production For toilets and recreation you can make self-sustainable system, which will use output as input. So, no need to cool it. For scientific discovery just no need to cool water, it would not make harm. In case of oxygen production much better to cool oxygen, because if you bring 95C water in electrolyzer, it will remove heat from total system. Also, it is much more easy to chill oxygen then water. And it is barely make sense for oil production, because natural gas from oil reservoir become too hot, water may explode pipes. But, such problem could be solved with ceramic pipe and liquid shutoff.

gabberworld Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 like always you just need make right decisions, how handle all those. in end there will be always only one solution how handle those all efficiency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I built this for fun some time ago... Can most likely process 9kg/s salt water. Very stable at 7,5kg/s. If you freeze salt water then you get brine + ice. Aquatuner + supercoolant is needed for this. Melt the ice with incoming salt water. Send brine to desalinator for 40ºC water. Cool the salt water with resulting water for best results.

ZombieDupe Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 There is also the old way, the cool steam vent with aqua tuner method as the aqua tuner regulates water and steam turbine deletes heat. Unless you want to make liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen, just use this and the salty slush geyser because it makes the most sense, may be even keep the output heated up just above 0C so water doesn't turn to ice when you sieve it. You should have at least one Anti Entropy Thermo Nullifier lying around as well, which is a little extra cooling if you pump hydrogen in it, just make sure you don't deconstruct it as it can't be rebuilt.

Fair point I forgot about it. Here is sleet wheat farm for 100 dupes colony - intake 56C water. If I'm correct, previously it work with 70-80C (now I was able to chill main part of base to 20C, previously it was around 45, so water chilled naturally, with normal pipes.
