Poisonous Mud is a special type of waste/byproduct produced in the Watz Power Plant. It is highly corrosive to granular blocks like dirt and gravel and can slowly corrode stone into cobblestone.

Production

It is produced while operating the Watz Power Plant.

Uses

It is primarily used in the crucible to be alloyed with magnetized tungsten at a 3:6 ratio into CMB Steel, an uncommon high durability metal.

Alternately, it can be centrifuged with 2 gas centrifuges to produce lots of dust, lead, iron, and some tiny piles of nuclear waste.

In case of truly excess amounts, it can be put into the specific mud Containers (holding up to 64,000mb) to be easily incinerated.

Trivia

  • In older versions of the mod, it was a byproduct of dynosyntheis performed in the chemical plant.
  • It is highly acidic, meaning it requires technetium steel barrels to hold it.
  • What it consists of is of question, but since it can only be obtained from the Watz plant, it's probably mostly dust, lead, some radioactive elements, and presumably a miscellaneous collection of toxic materials and particulates.
