Fully automated pacu farm and killing through hot petreuleum

Padishar · November 2, 2022

Hello everyone,

I would like to share this build: a fully automated pacu breeder and killer. In this build there is a breeding room for 10-12 pacus (or maybe more), the polluted dirt is shipped downside while the eggs upward. The automation make so that if there aren't enough breeders (set to 10 in my case) the hatched fishes will be directed to the breeding tank, otherwise they are directed to the hot petreuleum (230 °C) in which they turn into pacu fillet in approx 2-3 cycles. The very interesting part is that this build turned out to be moderatly heat negative, because each pacu weight 200 kg, it is warmed until he die and spawn a 1kg pacu fillet, which then result in quite some heat deletion per pacu killed through this system.

In details: a 200 kg pacu is warmed to the temperature just above his Livable Range, which amount to a temparature difference of 50°C compared to the spawning temperature (this is true for every pacu morph). When it dies there is a mass loss of 199 kg, this means we have a heat deletion of about 34.5 kDTU per pacu killed.
