00:00:00.030 however one time cryptic Fox and today 00:00:01.93900:00:01.949 we're looking at a compact oxygen 00:00:03.53000:00:03.540 production room that you can use to 00:00:04.82000:00:04.830 create air in your colony to keep your 00:00:06.74000:00:06.750 duplicates alive and oxygen not included 00:00:10.49000:00:10.500 [Music] 00:00:15.75000:00:15.760 at the start of the game of course you 00:00:17.80000:00:17.810 have some oxalate crystals that produce 00:00:19.09000:00:19.100 air and Keeper duplicates alive 00:00:20.52900:00:20.539 initially but it doesn't take very long 00:00:22.02900:00:22.039 before those oxalate crystals run out 00:00:23.49900:00:23.509 and you have to start produce your own 00:00:24.60900:00:24.619 air initially you have two basic choices 00:00:26.35000:00:26.360 for air you can use the Allen 2d 00:00:27.90900:00:27.919 oxidizer or of course you can also use 00:00:29.65000:00:29.660 the LG terrarium which I tend to prefer 00:00:31.92900:00:31.939 not to use myself only because it 00:00:33.49000:00:33.500 consumes both water and duplicate time 00:00:35.26000:00:35.270 in order for them to continue to fuel it 00:00:36.76000:00:36.770 the algid Iser takes algae and then 00:00:39.70000:00:39.710 breaks it down and produces air the 00:00:42.10000:00:42.110 oxygen that comes out of the machine 00:00:43.24000:00:43.250 though unfortunately it tends to be 00:00:44.56000:00:44.570 pretty warm so over time you not only 00:00:46.36000:00:46.370 are you gonna consume the algae that you 00:00:47.68000:00:47.690 have available for you but you're also 00:00:49.18000:00:49.190 producing air that's pretty warm comes 00:00:51.10000:00:51.110 out around 30 degrees celsius and that 00:00:52.66000:00:52.670 will warm up your colony and I can 00:00:54.52000:00:54.530 definitely provide a certain certain 00:00:56.11000:00:56.120 problem specifically for plants where 00:00:57.73000:00:57.740 body temperature is really important 00:00:59.14000:00:59.150 they only thrive in a body temperature 00:01:00.37000:01:00.380 between 10 degrees and 30 degrees so as 00:01:02.50000:01:02.510 your machines are running things are 00:01:04.29900:01:04.309 getting warmer in your colony you're 00:01:05.46900:01:05.479 producing warm air the overall 00:01:07.14900:01:07.159 temperature in the pollens gonna rise 00:01:08.42900:01:08.439 that can cause additional problems for 00:01:10.48000:01:10.490 your food supply for your duplicants and 00:01:11.77000:01:11.780 you don't really want that to happen as 00:01:14.28900:01:14.299 the advance of the game you get access 00:01:15.81900:01:15.829 to the electrolyzer through research now 00:01:17.46900:01:17.479 once you have these research you can 00:01:19.30000:01:19.310 pump water into electrolyzer and it 00:01:20.98000:01:20.990 produces a mix of both hydrogen and 00:01:22.66000:01:22.670 oxygen the electrolyzer consumes a 00:01:25.56900:01:25.579 thousand grams per second of water 120 00:01:27.84900:01:27.859 watts of power and it will produce 888 00:01:30.24900:01:30.259 grams per second of oxygen and a hundred 00:01:32.19900:01:32.209 and twelve grams per second of hydrogen 00:01:33.91000:01:33.920 basically just splitting into the two 00:01:35.16900:01:35.179 basic elements in the past I've used an 00:01:37.66000:01:37.670 oxygen production room that that creates 00:01:39.55000:01:39.560 a bell chamber and takes up a fair 00:01:40.89900:01:40.909 amount of space and quite a bit of time 00:01:42.21900:01:42.229 to produce it also consumes a lot of 00:01:43.98900:01:43.999 power because I'm using multiple pumps 00:01:45.60900:01:45.619 multiple electrolyzers I'm often using a 00:01:48.58000:01:48.590 filter to try to filter the gases and 00:01:50.37900:01:50.389 that was my go-to for the longest time 00:01:52.09000:01:52.100 if you've seen my other tutorial on the 00:01:53.85900:01:53.869 subject of electrolyzers you might have 00:01:55.20900:01:55.219 seen that set up there more recently 00:01:57.30900:01:57.319 though I've been using a more compact 00:01:58.51000:01:58.520 system to produce oxygen that takes less 00:02:00.37000:02:00.380 space less time to build and also 00:02:02.73900:02:02.749 consumes a lot less power so much so 00:02:04.66000:02:04.670 that I can actually separate this oxygen 00:02:06.27900:02:06.289 production completely from my power grid 00:02:07.71900:02:07.729 and make it run at its own power using 00:02:09.52000:02:09.530 just batteries and the hydrogen 00:02:10.80900:02:10.819 generator now there are many ways to 00:02:12.85000:02:12.860 build an oxygen included this is by no 00:02:14.47000:02:14.480 means the best solution or the only 00:02:16.33000:02:16.340 solution this just happens to be the one 00:02:17.71000:02:17.720 that I've been using most recently now 00:02:20.19900:02:20.209 we're gonna build this oxygen room in 00:02:21.69900:02:21.709 debug mode currently in order for speed 00:02:24.00900:02:24.019 and efficiency however you can't build 00:02:25.60000:02:25.610 this in real time in 00:02:27.26000:02:27.270 that you might be playing in the game as 00:02:28.79000:02:28.800 we've been watching my streams at all 00:02:30.08000:02:30.090 you would have seen me building these 00:02:31.04000:02:31.050 and it's certainly a very efficient 00:02:32.48000:02:32.490 little oxygen production system so first 00:02:34.94000:02:34.950 of all we're gonna need a little little 00:02:36.29000:02:36.300 u-shaped section at the bottom that it 00:02:37.70000:02:37.710 contains space for four tiles on the 00:02:39.56000:02:39.570 inside above this one we're gonna do a 00:02:41.78000:02:41.790 little a little insert just a small 00:02:43.76000:02:43.770 little instep now this is where we're 00:02:46.40000:02:46.410 gonna have our pump initially for on our 00:02:48.20000:02:48.210 oxygen for all practical purposes when 00:02:51.68000:02:51.690 you're building you might actually want 00:02:52.91000:02:52.920 to use some doors and things in order to 00:02:55.40000:02:55.410 access this room so that your people get 00:02:56.96000:02:56.970 some getting in and out while they're 00:02:57.95000:02:57.960 working no these are not certainly 00:02:59.78000:02:59.790 certainly not something that you're 00:03:00.80000:03:00.810 gonna need to keep later on above the 00:03:02.81000:03:02.820 section here where that we're gonna have 00:03:03.77000:03:03.780 the oxygen you need to either use the 00:03:05.12000:03:05.130 airflow tie or mesh tile I've been using 00:03:07.04000:03:07.050 mesh tile lately but we'll place that in 00:03:09.14000:03:09.150 here and this is where our electrolyzers 00:03:10.76000:03:10.770 gonna sit in order to reduce the oxygen 00:03:13.12000:03:13.130 the electrolyzer goes right above here 00:03:15.94000:03:15.950 again we can use doors to kind of fill 00:03:18.83000:03:18.840 in the spacing in here and this gives 00:03:20.21000:03:20.220 you access to for your duplicates to go 00:03:21.56000:03:21.570 in and out of the room in case you make 00:03:23.15000:03:23.160 an error and need to fix something above 00:03:26.51000:03:26.520 our oxygen pump we need a second pump 00:03:28.73000:03:28.740 this pumps purpose is gonna be to move 00:03:30.59000:03:30.600 the hydrogen in order to send it off to 00:03:32.09000:03:32.100 the hydrogen generator the entire unit 00:03:33.98000:03:33.990 needs to be enclosed in order to contain 00:03:35.27000:03:35.280 the gasses but above this door you want 00:03:37.01000:03:37.020 to leave a one tile gap high and close 00:03:39.41000:03:39.420 off the entirety of the room this is the 00:03:41.44900:03:41.459 basic shape of the room you're gonna 00:03:42.50000:03:42.510 work with oxygen that's produced by the 00:03:44.66000:03:44.670 electrolyzer will go downwards into the 00:03:46.49000:03:46.500 lower area where the gas pump is the 00:03:47.81000:03:47.820 hydrogen should move upwards into the 00:03:49.28000:03:49.290 upper section in order to get the whole 00:03:51.38000:03:51.390 system running of course you'll need an 00:03:52.82000:03:52.830 input of water I did build a pump ahead 00:03:54.74000:03:54.750 of time over here so we're just gonna 00:03:55.94000:03:55.950 send some piping for the water up to the 00:03:57.71000:03:57.720 space and they're also gonna need 00:04:04.19000:04:04.200 electricity now this particular setup 00:04:07.01000:04:07.020 requires an input of electricity 00:04:08.33000:04:08.340 initially to get working but then 00:04:09.80000:04:09.810 doesn't require any in the long term in 00:04:12.77000:04:12.780 order to run the oxygen room so we're 00:04:14.63000:04:14.640 gonna need a generally I'll use a manual 00:04:16.43000:04:16.440 generator in order to set this up we'll 00:04:19.03900:04:19.049 connect our wiring into the various 00:04:20.44900:04:20.459 pumps and also into the electrolyzer 00:04:23.62000:04:23.630 later we can ultimately separate this 00:04:25.75000:04:25.760 we're also gonna need electricity down 00:04:28.01000:04:28.020 to the pump naturally in order to send 00:04:29.45000:04:29.460 the power they're gonna move the water 00:04:33.71000:04:33.720 we're not gonna connect that just yet 00:04:35.55000:04:35.560 because I don't want the water moving in 00:04:36.90000:04:36.910 here just yet outside of our oxygen 00:04:39.18000:04:39.190 production room we're gonna need to 00:04:40.14000:04:40.150 place a hydrogen generator as well as 00:04:41.76000:04:41.770 some batteries in order to produce the 00:04:43.38000:04:43.390 power and then store the excess power 00:04:44.76000:04:44.770 that we're gonna make this particular 00:04:47.25000:04:47.260 generator outputs 800 watts of power so 00:04:49.50000:04:49.510 if we look at the consumption in here we 00:04:51.30000:04:51.310 only have we only have 600 watts of 00:04:53.46000:04:53.470 power consumption here so we know that 00:04:54.69000:04:54.700 when the gyrator is running we're gonna 00:04:55.77000:04:55.780 produce a little bit of excess to store 00:04:58.20000:04:58.210 that excess I'm using two large 00:04:59.58000:04:59.590 batteries that will give us a room to 00:05:01.47000:05:01.480 put the overflow power and that will 00:05:02.97000:05:02.980 ensure that when this hydrogen generator 00:05:04.68000:05:04.690 isn't running will continue to store the 00:05:07.11000:05:07.120 power that we can feed back into the 00:05:08.49000:05:08.500 system once we've removed the manual 00:05:12.12000:05:12.130 generator because we're not gonna need 00:05:13.20000:05:13.210 to continue to input power here the 00:05:15.54000:05:15.550 gases that are coming out of this system 00:05:17.28000:05:17.290 the lower pump is going to need to move 00:05:19.02000:05:19.030 oxygen out to the colony and the upper 00:05:21.33000:05:21.340 pump is going to need to move off of 00:05:22.58000:05:22.590 hydrogen into our hydrogen generator now 00:05:26.22000:05:26.230 when your pump first starts running the 00:05:27.57000:05:27.580 gas that's gonna be sending isn't just 00:05:29.10000:05:29.110 gonna be hydrogen to your hydrogen 00:05:30.39000:05:30.400 generator any other gases you send are 00:05:32.07000:05:32.080 gonna cause it some damage so you do 00:05:33.69000:05:33.700 have the option of filtering out the gas 00:05:35.73000:05:35.740 a little bit for example you could 00:05:37.23000:05:37.240 create a vent that sends your all of the 00:05:39.63000:05:39.640 gasses out into the space around it 00:05:41.07000:05:41.080 until you have a clean flow of hydrogen 00:05:42.75000:05:42.760 that you want to send your generator you 00:05:44.52000:05:44.530 could you could install a filter that 00:05:46.02000:05:46.030 you need for a period of time that does 00:05:47.91000:05:47.920 consume additional power but can filter 00:05:49.89000:05:49.900 out the gases as well I'm personally 00:05:51.81000:05:51.820 kind of lazy so I tend to just send all 00:05:53.58000:05:53.590 the gasses to the hydrogen generator let 00:05:55.29000:05:55.300 it take a little bit of damage and use a 00:05:57.03000:05:57.040 little bit of extra metal to repair it 00:05:58.29000:05:58.300 by having a duplicate go over there but 00:06:00.12000:06:00.130 that's not necessarily the most 00:06:01.14000:06:01.150 efficient method that just tends to be 00:06:02.82000:06:02.830 the way that I approach it inside of our 00:06:04.68000:06:04.690 oxygen production chamber we don't want 00:06:06.27000:06:06.280 the hydrogen pump to run constantly we 00:06:08.04000:06:08.050 only want this pump to run when there's 00:06:09.51000:06:09.520 a certain a certain percentage of gas at 00:06:11.97000:06:11.980 the top portion to move hydrogen into 00:06:13.98000:06:13.990 our pump if you let it clear out all the 00:06:16.77000:06:16.780 gas that's in here you'll get a poor 00:06:18.57000:06:18.580 separation of gas between your oxygen 00:06:20.25000:06:20.260 and hydrogen you'll forever be getting 00:06:21.51000:06:21.520 oxygen in your mix if you can maintain a 00:06:23.43000:06:23.440 high concentration of hydrogen at the 00:06:24.96000:06:24.970 top of yours of your room though this 00:06:27.24000:06:27.250 pump will only be moving hydrogen you 00:06:28.83000:06:28.840 don't have to worry about having a 00:06:29.85000:06:29.860 separate filter all the time that's 00:06:31.80000:06:31.810 gonna consume power so we'll place a 00:06:33.99000:06:34.000 Napo sensor in here and we'll connect 00:06:35.88000:06:35.890 this up to our top pump using the 00:06:39.78000:06:39.790 automation wire our Atmos sensor we're 00:06:42.39000:06:42.400 gonna set it so that it only turns on if 00:06:43.89000:06:43.900 the gas pressure is above 750 gram 00:06:46.48000:06:46.490 of course our lower gas pump that's 00:06:48.55000:06:48.560 moving the oxygen is gonna require a 00:06:50.11000:06:50.120 vent I use a normal gas vent for this 00:06:52.18000:06:52.190 purpose because it makes that makes the 00:06:53.68000:06:53.690 room self-regulating this vent won't 00:06:56.05000:06:56.060 allow gases to be pumped out at higher 00:06:57.49000:06:57.500 than 2000 grams in the in the 00:06:59.53000:06:59.540 surrounding area or to kilograms and 00:07:02.02000:07:02.030 that ensures that you're not over over 00:07:04.12000:07:04.130 oxygen in any room and you're gonna have 00:07:05.44000:07:05.450 a debug where your duplicates ears are 00:07:06.94000:07:06.950 popping 00:07:07.33000:07:07.340 so you'll this will keep it on 00:07:08.74000:07:08.750 self-regulating system what'll happen is 00:07:11.20000:07:11.210 this pump will just stop moving the 00:07:12.37000:07:12.380 gases the pressure will build up inside 00:07:14.29000:07:14.300 this space until we hit max pressure the 00:07:16.00000:07:16.010 electrolyzer stops running and then in 00:07:18.52000:07:18.530 the context of that usage you don't 00:07:20.08000:07:20.090 really have to worry about any excess 00:07:22.20000:07:22.210 any excess pressure going out into your 00:07:24.79000:07:24.800 colony this system is now ready to run 00:07:27.01000:07:27.020 I've connected the liquid pump to our 00:07:28.96000:07:28.970 power supply so we have a flow of water 00:07:30.61000:07:30.620 coming in you can see the bottom oxygen 00:07:32.53000:07:32.540 pump is just clearing out all the gases 00:07:34.39000:07:34.400 it's in the lower area it's creating a 00:07:35.83000:07:35.840 bit of a vacuum and as the water moves 00:07:37.99000:07:38.000 into our electrolyzer it'll start to 00:07:39.46000:07:39.470 produce oxygen hydrogen now the 00:07:42.61000:07:42.620 interesting thing about the way the gas 00:07:43.87000:07:43.880 is working and oxygen unincluded is that 00:07:45.85000:07:45.860 you can't have two different gases 00:07:47.59000:07:47.600 occupying the same space in the game 00:07:49.35000:07:49.360 hydrogen likes to sort itself upwards in 00:07:52.12000:07:52.130 the in the mix oxygen likes to filter 00:07:55.03000:07:55.040 itself below hydrogen because hydrogen 00:07:56.26000:07:56.270 tends to rise in your colony so if we 00:07:59.35000:07:59.360 can clear out all the other gases that's 00:08:00.97000:08:00.980 in this space up here then we could 00:08:03.67000:08:03.680 allow for a concentration of hydrogen 00:08:05.47000:08:05.480 the top portion that contains no oxygen 00:08:07.15000:08:07.160 we've just hit that threshold now I can 00:08:09.37000:08:09.380 turn off the this this pump here by 00:08:11.26000:08:11.270 setting it to the appropriate setting 00:08:12.79000:08:12.800 for 700d grams above and now from this 00:08:15.85000:08:15.860 point forward there's no power required 00:08:17.68000:08:17.690 to sort the gases hydrogen comes to the 00:08:19.60000:08:19.610 top of the machine 00:08:20.44000:08:20.450 it takes up the top layer in our room 00:08:22.09000:08:22.100 and the oxygen regardless of the amount 00:08:24.31000:08:24.320 of pressure that might be contained in 00:08:25.60000:08:25.610 it so here we have 1300 grams of 00:08:27.82000:08:27.830 pressure for oxygen and up here we only 00:08:29.44000:08:29.450 have 627 grams of hydrogen but they'll 00:08:31.81000:08:31.820 never trade places because the oxygen 00:08:34.24000:08:34.250 can't move up past it because of that 00:08:36.61000:08:36.620 we're able to keep this as a pure 00:08:37.78000:08:37.790 hydrogen mix and the lower portion is 00:08:40.33000:08:40.340 pure oxygen and as long as we continue 00:08:41.95000:08:41.960 to move the gasses out this will produce 00:08:43.69000:08:43.700 a steady outgoing flow of 500 grams per 00:08:46.27000:08:46.280 second of oxygen this pump at the top 00:08:48.82000:08:48.830 will only turn on periodically when we 00:08:50.32000:08:50.330 get sufficient pressure built up in 00:08:51.70000:08:51.710 hydrogen that sends the hydrogen Oh to 00:08:53.56000:08:53.570 our generator which will run and produce 00:08:55.48000:08:55.490 800 watts per second of power 00:08:58.04000:08:58.050 the excess power will go into store up 00:09:01.12900:09:01.139 in our batteries and we can actually at 00:09:02.72000:09:02.730 this point just disconnect this connect 00:09:07.36900:09:07.379 the incoming power supply from our 00:09:09.37900:09:09.389 manual generator and this will be its 00:09:10.97000:09:10.980 own self maintaining system now of 00:09:12.73900:09:12.749 course we did take some damage on our 00:09:14.55900:09:14.569 hydrogen generator while I was 00:09:16.34000:09:16.350 separating the gases but a quick repair 00:09:18.55900:09:18.569 it's all ready to go and this is now a 00:09:20.28900:09:20.299 self-perpetuating system this generator 00:09:22.63900:09:22.649 will produce enough power to run the 00:09:24.01900:09:24.029 room at all times any excess power it 00:09:26.56900:09:26.579 produces we get stored in the top so 00:09:27.97900:09:27.989 when the generator isn't running all the 00:09:29.66000:09:29.670 machines will continue to operate even 00:09:31.69900:09:31.709 though we have 600 watts of power 00:09:32.92900:09:32.939 consumption in total when everything's 00:09:34.36900:09:34.379 running this top part pump doesn't run 00:09:36.37900:09:36.389 all the time it only runs periodically 00:09:37.78900:09:37.799 so for all intents and purposes we're 00:09:39.91900:09:39.929 most often going to be pulling three 00:09:41.09000:09:41.100 hundred and sixty watts of power through 00:09:42.49900:09:42.509 our system while we're producing 800 on 00:09:44.66000:09:44.670 an intermittent system because of this 00:09:47.09000:09:47.100 we can completely disconnect this from 00:09:48.73900:09:48.749 our power grid so we don't have to worry 00:09:50.50900:09:50.519 about overloading any other systems and 00:09:52.30900:09:52.319 it will be self maintaining from a power 00:09:54.07900:09:54.089 perspective you do have to have a flow 00:09:55.63900:09:55.649 of water to keep going into it and 00:09:56.98900:09:56.999 managing your water is a totally 00:09:58.10000:09:58.110 different topic but this is the way I 00:09:59.62900:09:59.639 like to produce oxygen in my colleague 00:10:01.16000:10:01.170 my Curt colony has two of these small 00:10:03.61900:10:03.629 oxygen rooms operating it as you can see 00:10:05.32900:10:05.339 from our oxygen overlay we have a very 00:10:06.82900:10:06.839 good concentration of oxygen in here I 00:10:08.66000:10:08.670 have once in a once in a while used my 00:10:10.87900:10:10.889 LGD oxidizer because we have a total of 00:10:12.59000:10:12.600 fifteen duplicants 00:10:13.46000:10:13.470 at one point the pressure in this area 00:10:15.37900:10:15.389 got a little bit on the low side because 00:10:16.60900:10:16.619 of an interrupted water flow but now 00:10:18.59000:10:18.600 that we have the oxygen rooms flowing 00:10:19.69900:10:19.709 again oxygen supply within our colony 00:10:22.03900:10:22.049 has been really solid and we haven't had 00:10:23.56900:10:23.579 any issues with having to try to 00:10:24.91900:10:24.929 maintain it 00:10:25.57900:10:25.589 this small efficient system takes up 00:10:27.49900:10:27.509 dramatically less space of the original 00:10:28.85000:10:28.860 and I used to use but does an excellent 00:10:30.59000:10:30.600 job of keeping the colony well supplied 00:10:32.11900:10:32.129 with oxygen the one challenge that 00:10:34.24900:10:34.259 you'll find with these little oxygen 00:10:35.53900:10:35.549 production rooms though is that they can 00:10:36.94900:10:36.959 produce a fair amount of heat the gas 00:10:38.78000:10:38.790 that's coming out of this room is at 40 00:10:40.48900:10:40.499 degrees Celsius and you don't want to 00:10:41.74900:10:41.759 pump that into your colony because it's 00:10:43.36900:10:43.379 too hot it'll overheat your farms and 00:10:45.10900:10:45.119 they'll start producing food and cause 00:10:46.57900:10:46.589 other issues in your colony in this 00:10:48.23000:10:48.240 instance I have the oxygen built at the 00:10:49.97000:10:49.980 top area of my colony and I want to cool 00:10:52.36900:10:52.379 the oxygen that's coming out of it in 00:10:54.07900:10:54.089 order to accomplish that I created a 00:10:56.29900:10:56.309 system of pipes using radiant piping 00:10:58.18900:10:58.199 that snakes through this small little 00:10:59.56900:10:59.579 chamber that I filled up with wheeze 00:11:00.94900:11:00.959 warts in order to provide some cooling 00:11:03.07900:11:03.089 this is really only an option that's 00:11:04.48900:11:04.499 available to you if you already have 00:11:05.98900:11:05.999 discovered a cold biome and you can 00:11:08.17900:11:08.189 retrieve the wheeze warts from it but 00:11:10.28000:11:10.290 the oxygen that's coming through the 00:11:11.92900:11:11.939 system is that at this point it ranges 00:11:14.44900:11:14.459 between 36 and 40 degrees Celsius as it 00:11:16.84900:11:16.859 comes out of the system it's actually 00:11:18.04900:11:18.059 cooling fairly quickly as it moves 00:11:19.09900:11:19.109 through here it enters the radiant gas 00:11:21.40900:11:21.419 piping and at the top here you can see 00:11:23.80900:11:23.819 the the gas that's contained within the 00:11:26.68900:11:26.699 pipe is at 38 point one degrees Celsius 00:11:28.54900:11:28.559 but the time it runs sneaks through this 00:11:30.37900:11:30.389 area and get schooled by the wheeze 00:11:31.90900:11:31.919 warts it comes out of the other end at a 00:11:34.46000:11:34.470 nice comfortable temperature of 26 point 00:11:35.96000:11:35.970 one degrees which is right within that 00:11:37.47900:11:37.489 right within that ideal temperature 00:11:39.43900:11:39.449 range for plans and for the duplicants 00:11:41.02900:11:41.039 to be comfortable the other alternative 00:11:43.06900:11:43.079 if you've already uncovered a cold biome 00:11:44.41900:11:44.429 is just to build your oxygen production 00:11:46.06900:11:46.079 room in the cold biome this will allow 00:11:47.98900:11:47.999 for the oxygen that's being produced and 00:11:49.48900:11:49.499 sent out to come out at very cold 00:11:50.68900:11:50.699 temperatures so in this case the oxygen 00:11:53.35900:11:53.369 that's contained within this gas pipe is 00:11:55.46000:11:55.470 it 27 28 degrees by the time it moves 00:11:58.03900:11:58.049 through the cold biome to get out of 00:11:59.32900:11:59.339 here it's in this 15 to 16 degree range 00:12:01.24900:12:01.259 and then it's just a matter of just 00:12:03.01900:12:03.029 warming it up slightly so that by the 00:12:04.21900:12:04.229 time you pump that oxygen into your 00:12:05.74900:12:05.759 colony it's sitting at a nice balmy 20 00:12:09.07900:12:09.089 degree range in this instance instead of 00:12:11.21000:12:11.220 trying to cool the gases more as they 00:12:12.67900:12:12.689 come out of your system you're actually 00:12:13.99900:12:14.009 trying to allow them to warm up a little 00:12:15.07900:12:15.089 bit so they work in the comfortable 00:12:16.18900:12:16.199 range this cold biome was starting to 00:12:19.18900:12:19.199 heat up so things are getting a little 00:12:20.35900:12:20.369 bit warmer in here initially the the 00:12:21.58900:12:21.599 oxygen that was coming out of here was 00:12:23.65900:12:23.669 in the one degree to below zero kind of 00:12:26.56900:12:26.579 temperature and now it's a little on the 00:12:29.02900:12:29.039 warmer side but it's still allowing for 00:12:30.61900:12:30.629 the opportunity as it passes through 00:12:31.66900:12:31.679 here to cool a little bit further and 00:12:33.25900:12:33.269 because of the insulated pipe we're 00:12:34.39900:12:34.409 using by the time it arrives in our 00:12:35.80900:12:35.819 colony it's sitting at an ideal 00:12:37.00900:12:37.019 temperature if you don't have access to 00:12:40.33900:12:40.349 a cold biome just yet you can also go 00:12:41.96000:12:41.970 into your utilities tab if you've done 00:12:43.42900:12:43.439 enough research you can use your thermal 00:12:44.80900:12:44.819 regulator the third what regulator is 00:12:46.93900:12:46.949 relatively straightforward to use 00:12:48.04900:12:48.059 you simply build the regulator feed the 00:12:51.04900:12:51.059 gas that you want to cool into the top 00:12:53.23900:12:53.249 of the regulator with an output pipe at 00:12:54.91900:12:54.929 the bottom of the regulator supply it 00:12:56.47900:12:56.489 with power and as any oxygen that goes 00:12:58.15900:12:58.169 in will come out of the other side 14 00:12:59.77900:12:59.789 degrees cooler than what it entered the 00:13:01.21900:13:01.229 system at you can then loop this if 00:13:03.22900:13:03.239 necessary or use multiple regulators in 00:13:05.11900:13:05.129 order to get to the temperature range 00:13:06.13900:13:06.149 that you need the challenge with this is 00:13:08.02900:13:08.039 that the thermal regular tends to run 00:13:09.37900:13:09.389 very hot so you do want to try to have 00:13:11.62900:13:11.639 some sort of cooling or isolate this 00:13:13.42900:13:13.439 system so it's completely separated from 00:13:14.89900:13:14.909 your colony and that way you're not 00:13:16.06900:13:16.079 worried about the the heat that's 00:13:17.21000:13:17.220 produced if the regulator runs 00:13:19.21900:13:19.229 constantly it will get hot enough that 00:13:20.56900:13:20.579 will damage itself simple way to solve 00:13:22.51900:13:22.529 for that is to just place a liquid vent 00:13:24.04900:13:24.059 above your above you 00:13:25.35000:13:25.360 regulator allow some liquid to drip onto 00:13:26.91000:13:26.920 it and runoff into some other reservoir 00:13:28.59000:13:28.600 this won't keep it perfectly cold but it 00:13:30.75000:13:30.760 will keep it cool enough that it won't 00:13:31.80000:13:31.810 damage itself and it helped mitigate the 00:13:33.24000:13:33.250 amount of heat that you're producing I 00:13:34.56000:13:34.570 hope you found this tutorial useful and 00:13:36.78000:13:36.790 you can use this kind of design in your 00:13:38.06900:13:38.079 own colony to help produce better oxygen 00:13:39.96000:13:39.970 flow and keep your duplicants alive this 00:13:42.00000:13:42.010 is of course not the only way to produce 00:13:43.62000:13:43.630 oxygen there are many different 00:13:44.75900:13:44.769 variations of using an electrolyzer to 00:13:46.65000:13:46.660 produce oxygen for your colony but this 00:13:48.36000:13:48.370 is the one that I like to use myself and 00:13:50.31000:13:50.320 hopefully you'll get some use of it as 00:13:51.36000:13:51.370 well 00:13:51.75000:13:51.760 I'm as always cryptic Fox I'll see all 00:13:54.12000:13:54.130 of you next time 00:13:55.19000:13:55.20000:14:08.94000:14:08.950 you
