This can be done by separating gases into tanks using atmospheric units and piping individual gases through a mixer and a [[Special:MyLanguage/Pressure Regulator|Pressure Regulator]] or a [[Special:MyLanguage/Pipe Volume Pump|Pipe Volume Pump]] connected to the furnace input. Output should also be extracted and vented/recycled through a backpressure regulator to keep furnace pressure in check. The optimal gas mix that burns completely is 1 part (33.3%) oxygen to 2 parts (66.6%) volatiles, other mixes would also work but leave you with leftover oxygen or volatiles depending on the percentages used. It could also result in lower temperature if that is desired, but you could also use a volume pump with a lower fuel input setting. |

*If atmosphere inside and/or around furnace is too cold to melt ice one can press 'activate' button to manually melt one ice per ignition attempt. You will need to press the ignition button for each piece of ice from the first stack that you put in. Until all solid matter was melted the import slot will remain blocked. | *If atmosphere inside and/or around furnace is too cold to melt ice one can press 'activate' button to manually melt one ice per ignition attempt.
