In Nuclear Tech Mod, BTX, is a must-do fluid for your progression. As it is part of the late-game petrochemistry.

BTX is a blue-ish violet colored, flammable, combustible, viscous and polluting fluid. Having a high fuel grade, it provides 3.15MTU and 7.87MHE per bucket.

The fluid is a important part of progression as stated before, and this is because of the fact it is the only fluid in addition with Phosgene that can produce Hard Plastic Bars. Also being the founding material with Fullerene to produce Crystalline Fullerite, useful material in the making of the Inertial Confinement Fusion Reactor (ICF) and even the FEnSU, the largest energy storage by space in the entire mod.

Production

BTX can be produced in only 2 ways. And those are through Fractioning Tower(s). BTX can be acquired doing the following processes:

100mB

40mB

60mB
