Tips

• Before any alternate recipes utilizing it are unlocked, Heavy Oil Residue can be simply turned into Petroleum Coke, sent into Coal Generators and any excess then be fed into the AWESOME Sink to keep the production running. Petroleum Coke is later used in Tier 7 for turning Alumina Solution to Aluminum Scrap.
  • Alternate recipes Diluted Packaged Fuel and Turbo Heavy Fuel are great ways of utilizing Heavy Oil Residue for power generation.
• A quick and dirty way to get rid of the Heavy Oil Residue is to build a lot of Industrial Fluid Buffer, and flush them once in a while. Take note this completely deletes the fluid, as it has more uses as stated above.
• When packaged it can be burned by vehicles however it is not very efficient to do so.

History

• Patch 0.3.3.4: Unpackaging Heavy Oil Residue now gives back the right amount of Canisters
