Chemical Processes

A bit about chemical processes you might encounter during the pack

Minechem is used due to it's ability to add chemicals (in both their item and fluid form) into the game. This means that sometimes, when you need a liquid you can input the solid item and it will be auto converted to it's fluid form. Remember you can manage fluids using pipes and or minechem vials. All necessary recipes should be added and accessible. After this small incise, let's get started!

This page aims to clarify and list all Chemical related recipes since some of them don't show in NEI and attempting to fix that is more work than just writing this page.

Aluminium production:

Step one: Isolate the Aluminium content of the Bauxite ore using Sodium Hydroxide.

Step two: Remove the water content in the obtained dissolution by calcining the substance. Obtain Alumina

Step three: Electrolyse Alumina in a high energy consuming process in order to separate molten aluminium from oxigen

Step four: Cool down the aluminium into an ingot.

Basic Chemicals:

Hydrogen: Electrolyse water or hydrochloric acid

Oxygen: Electrolyse water or alumina, as well as Fractional Distillation of Liquid Air (Insert Air in Magneticraft Refinery)

Nitrogen: Fractional Distillation of Liquid Air

Carbon: Shapeless recipe of coal

Sodium Hydroxide: Electrolyse Salt

Hydrogen Chloride: Electrolyse salt

Ammonia: Nitrogen + Hydrogen

Sulfuric Acid: Things with Sulfur

Nitric Acid: Things with nitric oxide

Hydrofluoric acid = Fluorite + Sulfuric acid

Oil: You need a Distillery and a Refinery (Magneticraft both)

Distill the crude, fractionate the hot, get Light, Heavy, and Natural Gas

Fractionate the Light for Ethylene, Tar and Naptha

Fractionate the Heavy for Diesel, Kerosene and Air

Diesel + Naptha make Gasoline

''Sadly, I couldn't implement an octane based system. This works too!''

Natural Gas, Heavy Oil, Diesel and Gasoline are all burnable fuels. Use them with caution.
