Sulphuric Acid

Sulphuric Acid is a crafting material used in multiple production recipes. It functions as an intermediate chemical component for batteries, hardening agents, pumps, supermagnets, synthetic resin, and other manufactured items.

Sulphuric Acid is produced in a Refinery. The refinery recipe consumes 2 Sulphur Ore and 1 Chemicals and completes in 0.5 seconds to produce 1 Sulphuric Acid.

• Obtaining: produced in the Refinery from 2 Sulphur Ore and 1 Chemicals; 0.5 seconds per Sulphuric Acid; yields 1 Sulphuric Acid.
• Common uses and crafting recipes that consume Sulphuric Acid:
  • Battery: requires 1 Sulphuric Acid, 2 Electronics, and 2 Inductor; crafted in the Mega Press in 4 seconds to produce 1 Battery.
  • Hardening Agent: requires 5 Sulphuric Acid, 1 Synthetic Silicon, and 1 Applicator; crafted in the Furnace in 4 seconds to produce 2 Hardening Agent.
  • Pump: requires 3 Sulphuric Acid, 1 Valve, 1 Turbine, and 1 Impeller; crafted in the Mega Press in 10 seconds to produce 1 Pump.
  • Supermagnet: requires 5 Sulphuric Acid, 5 Wolfram Plate, and 2 Chemicals; crafted in the Furnace in 3 seconds to produce 1 Supermagnet.
  • Synthetic Resin: requires 4 Sulphuric Acid, 2 Hardening Agent, and 10 Calcite Sheets; crafted in the Compounder in 3 seconds to produce 1 Synthetic Resin.

Practical notes:

• The Refinery recipe is fast (0.5 seconds), enabling rapid production to support assembly lines that consume multiple Sulphuric Acid per item, such as Hardening Agent and Supermagnet.
• Plan Sulphur Ore and Chemicals supply to match downstream demand; items like Hardening Agent and Synthetic Resin require multiple units of Sulphuric Acid per craft.
• Balance production machines (Refinery, Mega Press, Furnace, Compounder) so Sulphuric Acid output keeps pace with all consuming recipes to avoid bottlenecks.
