    How to make a power plant by Ace.

    The power source
    First you must decide on your power source. This can be anything that has a negative/positive heat or can generate PHOT.
    Here are a list of energy source categories and how to use them:
    sourcehow to use
    burnablesheat collection
    radio activesphoto-electricity
    heat emittingheat collection


    Burnables
    The burnables are:
    • ACID
    • NITR
    • DESL
    • OIL
    • WOOD
    • DUST
    • COAL
    • BCOL
    • FUSE
    • FSEP
    • INSL

    Simply burn the material in a "furnace" and use the heat collection method.

    Radio Actives
    The radio actives are:
    • DEUT
    • AMTR
    • PLUT
    • ISOZ
    • ISZS


    All of these elements produce radio activity in different ways:
    elementrelease methodrelease
    DEUTadd NEUTNEUT
    AMTRadd anything that can be destroyedPHOT
    PLUTadd AIR or NEUTNEUT
    ISOZ/ISZSadd PHOTPHOT


    By colliding a PHOT into an thin 2px sheet of PSCN and NSCN, you will create a spark. If the fuel your using releases NEUT send the NEUT through glass to change it to PHOT.

    With DEUT or PLUT you may wish to use the same method of energy collection as burnables.

    heat collection
    In order to release energy from hot substances. Collect its heat using WATR. Collect the energy of the WTRV from the WATR using detector wall. Cool the WTRV back into WATR in oreder to start over again
    Hot substances are and how to release there heat:
    substanceheat release method
    any burnable substanceburn it
    GoL elementskeep it moving
    URANkeep it pressured
    any radio active elementignite it


    Other Ways
    You may wish to use another method here are some others:

    bizarre energy collection
    By taking advantage of BIZR's strange properties you can cool BIZR and use it like the energy collection method of burnables.

    pressure
    Pressure has it's effects on most materials, there for the energy may be harvested.
    example:
    Presser hit's a piece of INVS, STNE drops through and the STNE passes a detector wall.

    Tips
    • make it look realistic
    • try and use materials that have never before been used


    Done
    Happy reacting!
    Feel free to post your reactors once you're done.

    If an element can move or be moved it can be used as a power source.

    I've seen various videos on youtube of power plants but there was one video in which it showed steam being turned into electricity. He used tiny green "blobs" to turn the heat of the steam into electricity. Can someone tell me the name of these green blobs mentioned above?

    they could be a couple of things– they could be CONV into something, or else it's decorated DTEC/TSNS/PSNS. Basically they are the "generator elements," since they produce SPRK

    If you have a car, a moderate tool collection and good tinkering abilities, you can make your own emergency power plant.

    I made a VIBR bomb btw and I was going to make a save but then I lost my wifi. I'm not really good at understanding in what form of energy VIBR releases like heat, radioactivity but 1 thing I know is that it is very good at blowing up into ELEC and EXOT and glowing nicely.
