Biogas is a type of fluid that can be readily used as fuel in a Semifluid Generator or to generate heat in a Fluid Heat Generator.
How to obtain[edit]
Biogas can be obtained in a Fermenter with Biomass.
See: Crafting Guide
Fermenting Speeds[edit]
Fermenting speeds can be greatly affected by different types of heat generators used. The Solid Heat Generator is the slowest while the Electric Heat Generator and the Liquid Heat Exchanger is the fastest.
Renewable Energy[edit]
By creating a farm maintained by a crop harvester, you can create energy to supply the demand of your hungry machines!
1. Prepare the area need for crops. You will need the Crop Harvester to harvest crops unless you have a better alternative.
2. The power of automation! You should have the following to create an automated system that is compact:
- 1x Macerator for Bio Chaff
- 1x Canning Machine for Biomass
- 1x Fermenter for Biogas
- 1x Heat Generator to run the fermenter. I would recommend the Fluid Heat Generator.
- Infinite water source
- Ejector upgrades
Note: Using the Electric Heat Generator will always result in a net loss of energy!
3. Hook up the biogas pipes into your Semifluid Generator and start gaining energy!
Warning: May cause global warming due to combustion.
