Cracked Diesel

Cracked Diesel is a byproduct from Cracked Naphtha, despite it being clearly named "Diesel".

It is combustible, flammable, polluting, a high grade fuel that provides 515.0kTU per bucket and 1.28MHE per bucket. Cracked diesel can be used in a wide possibility of ways for other different fluids the mod has to offer. It is also the only way to produce High-Octane Cracked Diesel.

Production

Cracked diesel's primary source is as a byproduct from Cracked Naphtha, but even though the name says "Cracked", it is actually made with a Fractioning Tower.

Uses

Cracked diesel has a multitude of possible processing pathways with the majority of them resulting in the production of kerosene as is the case with the standard form of diesel.
