Description

Polluted water is a waste product from the use of Water in certain devices. It will freeze in to Ice (Polluted Water) but boil into Steam.

A Water Purifier can be used to convert it back to Water

- Stationpedia

Usage

Polluted Water is a byproduct of various machines such as when the player uses a shower as a means to raise a players hygiene. Polluted water needs to be cleaned before it can be usable, either through a water purifier or by boiling the liquid into steam.

Polluted Water has a specific heat of 72 J/K making it a great alternative to water for cooling.

At boiling temperature 370K (97C) at 100kPa it becomes Steam.

Unlike water, Polluted Water doesn't have a liquid form when it spills into the world. Rather, it turns directly into steam.

Sources

Polluted water can be obtained by using a shower

You can obtain polluted water by smelting Ice (Polluted Water) using a Furnace or crushing Ice (Polluted Water) in an Ice Crusher. Filtering is no longer required as the Furnace and Ice Crusher now contain separate outputs for liquids and gases.


Source Amount
Ice (Polluted Water) 50 mol

History

Polluted water was added as part of the "Shelter in Space" update. It was added as a potential byproduct for raising the hygiene stat.
