boorp Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Does anybody know the exact or estimate number of germs killed by cooling the Metal Refinery with infected water?

abud Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 AFAIK, germs died off in high or low temperature. Metal refinery didn't kill germs directly. It will be very dependant on many factors including (but not limited to): What kind of metal you refine, each has different heat energy transferred to the coolant How often you refine your metal, probably you mean ideal continuous operation which impossible because dupes need a break Polluted water will be gasses off while stored inside a refinery In game recipe tooltip there is shown how much temperature you get for refining different kind of metals. Or just search in this forum, I remember someone put a nice table about metal refinery recipes. Probably you want to warm your polluted water using metal refineries? If that the case, I suggest loop the output into their input. Put pipe temperature sensor on them so if it too hot (you decide temperature it should output) it will be redirected somewhere else.

Sevio Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 You can kill food poisoning germs in polluted water with a tepidizer too. I'm not sure why you would want to, since if you don't make mush bars or liceloaf with the sieved water the germs are a non-issue.

boorp Posted July 14, 2018 Author Share Posted July 14, 2018 @Sevio Is food poisoning an issue with Electrolyzers, Showers and Lavatories or do I just need to be careful of Slimelung?

Weirdly it's no problem for showers, lavatories, sinks and hydro farms to use germy water. Electrolyzers spread food posioning to the output gas, but that doesn't matter as food posioning can't do anything when in gas. Slimelung water with electrolyzers is funny because the output gas is 70C, so it kills slimelung. (Slimelung dies at a scaling rate starting below 75C and reaching it's maximum at 75C and above.). You can have so much slimelung in the water it can't kill it fast enough before you use the gas, but that should be rare.

PhailRaptor Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 On airborne germs, Food Poisoning germs will kill/override Slimelung germs. A number of veteran players actively make use of this fact to protect against Slimelung, but intentionally contaminating the water supply that will be going to their Electrolyzers to guarantee their air is full of Food Poisoning.
