strawberrygirl Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Ok so I see people with electrolyzer setups that have liquid surrounding them. I figured they did this because somehow it filters out the hydrogen from the oxygen without having to use an air filter (hydrogen rises above /through the water?). I tried to emulate this but all i get is a flooded electrolyzer which won't work. Anyone have a comment. Does this even work anymore? here is a screenshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenVo Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Actually, it is not recommended for use. High pressure oxygen generating is more like a bug or definitely a bug. Electrolyzer judges the atmosphere as vacuum and constantly runs. To me, there are more defects than its benefits. High water consumption, high temperature O2 and high pressure O2(just too much) are problems to be solved. It just save a air pump and a filter, 360w. For H2, there will be a pump anyway to consume them in generator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanoD Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 First put in polluted water like 2 kg and then put in clean water like 2 kg. and it will not flood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLance Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Also having too much oxygen now results in a debuff of popped ear drums so best to be careful. If you wish to have an electrolyser run you without it really stopping you can do this instead, The Grey is just a normal tile, the gold is an airflow tile, Have your atmo switch set to above 100g or anything really above this, I have mine at 333g. It will take some time for this to purge as their will be oxygen on both sides but after a cycle all the oxygen at the pump will be gone and only hydrogen will fill the top row, and the area with the pump. The oxygen will naturally diffuse through the airflow tiles and down into your base. I do not take credit this is someone elses design which I now use religiously. I cannot remember the link and I am at work XD Edit - You can move the pump up 1 tile, but you can risk sucking in too much hydrogen and letting oxygen get back into the system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhailRaptor Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 My understanding is that the point of "flooding" an Electrolyzer is to force the Hydrogen to sort into a specific tile, exploiting the 1 substance per tile rule. Based on my own experiences, it's also an irrelevant waste of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatGameDota Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 This is how you'd go about setting it up. Though not a lot of people like this set-up because it's super cheaty. Credit to @PVD for the screenshot/steps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLance Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Like I also said you can end up putting out too much and popping your dupes ear drums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
