Stone Crusher

We all hate the huge amount of stone in our cargo containers. Throwing it out takes some time and creates floating objects. So this block can be your solution. It’s a stone only refinery with no gravel as output. If you want to convert stone into other resources, this is not the mod you are looking for.


Features:

• Eliminates stone from your cargo
  
• Does not generate floating objects
  
• Does not generate other useful resources

Ingame description:
Common earth rocks (stone) consist mostly out of SiO2 in many variations. But for technical reasons SE refineries can crate silicon wafers only from some silicon ores. So SE always had the problem with their excavation material. Many just throw it out of their ships cargo containers. After years of dumping space there were reported more and more collisions from ships with astro-garbage. In 2078 UN resolution A/RES/132/13 prohibited this behavior. One solution was the stone crusher. This facility mills stone finer and finer. At the end of the process the finely grounded dust is blown out.



At the moment it is using the blast furnace model. If you want to make a model for it contact me please. In my opinion this block should also be much bigger around 4x3x4.



For the overpowered version (nearly no energy cost and very high refine speed) use:
