Angpaur Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 200 tons?! And I though my 40t was big amount But this just reminds me that I need to finally store all my sand in some inacessible area, to allow regolith only to be used as only filtration medium.

Neotuck Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I haven't even broken into the surface yet I'll admit I have had to crush some igneous rock into sand to keep up with my deodorizers 14 minutes ago, Angpaur said: But this just reminds me that I need to finally store all my sand in some inacessible area, to allow regolith only to be used as only filtration medium. go ahead and use up your sand, the only thing sand is good for is making glass which you won't need much of when the time comes just keep a rock crusher near your glass forge Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/98689-electrolyzer-hydrogen-generation/page/2/#findComment-1115974 Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is so much regolith on the surface and I want to find some usage for it. I know it is quite hot but it can also be advantage. I'm yet to send a rocket into space and the first one probably will be steam powered. Regolith will come in good use for steam production.

I would say more then probably lol and if you are planing to use regolith's heat to boil water I'll tell you now there is no effective way to do that, many players have tried you are better off using an aquatuner Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/98689-electrolyzer-hydrogen-generation/page/2/#findComment-1115982 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just built several compactors and filled them with regolith. Built a room around them with water piped in, emptied the compactors and pumped in a little water until I had steam. Using an aquatuner is certainly more sustainable, but it doesn't matter much as you only need to launch the steam rocket 2 or 3 times.

Using an aquatuner is certainly more sustainable, but it doesn't matter much as you only need to launch the steam rocket 2 or 3 times. Exactly - 100t of hot regolith should be enough to produce 6t of steam from my 30C polluted water. This will be enough for first 6 rocket launches. Then I will either switch to other rocket engines or use aquatuners to support steam production.

Neotuck Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 there's a cool steam geyser I'm not using, I'm thinking of just hooking up a steel gas pump and connecting it to to 6 gas reservoirs in a vacuum Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/98689-electrolyzer-hydrogen-generation/page/2/#findComment-1115993 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey @Saturnus I tried reproducing this experiment today, I wasn't able to reproduce the deletion, I did notice however that the electrolyzer usually had 1 kg of water left in it's internal storage at the end. Just wondering if the internal storage used to be hidden, or if perhaps this bug might have been fixed.

I'm pretty sure I would have noticed it if you could see the content of the internal storage back then. Or somebody else would have noticed it. Bear in mind, this is one of the most popular electrolyser set ups with hundreds of players using it.
