The Gas-Burning Generator is a power generator block added by the Mekanism mod. It produces power from burnable gases, such as Hydrogen and Ethylene. It can be filled with the gases by either piping it in through a Pressurized Tube or through placing a filled Gas Tank in the appropriate slot. The generator has an internal storage of 20 kJ 8 kRF and 18, units of any burnable gas. The burn rate is maximal above units in storage, and decrease under this value, along with the energy output.

A Gas-Burning Generator creates power by consuming any burnable gas for example the Hydrogen produced by an Electrolytic Separator or Ethylene. The Gas-Burning Generator has its own internal storage tank with a capacity of 18, units. Gas Tanks can be used to expand the Hydrogen storage capacity of your system. They are an upper tier Mekanism power source that should supply adequate power to your base for a long time, but they are best used when they provide power to charge a bank of Energy Cubes , rather than sending the generator power out directly to your base. As of 1. This means that hydrogen should not be used for power generation, as it produces less than it costs. Use Ethylene, or perhaps another compatible fuel from other mods. A new feature in Mekanism v9 is that the Gas-Burning Generator will automatically scale its burning rate according to the amount of power stored in its internal buffer this is usually determined by the tier of Universal Cable it is attached to. The rate is displayed on the right side of the GUI, below the gas and power storage indicators. In Mekanism v10 for 1. Gas-Burning Generator.

Hydrogen is not the only gas that they accept, and it is intended that you don't gain infinite power with it using hydrogen.

I do understand that Hydrogen generation was completely overhauled and the electrolytic separator's energy requirements were changed to suit, but something about this seems off. The "needed" amount of RF for the electrolytic separator would soar to crazy amounts such as rf as well. Here's some pics to better illustrate

Personal Chest. This means that hydrogen should not be used for power generation, as it produces less than it costs. On top of that, energy upgrades don't appear to effect the separator at all. Dynamic Tank multiblock. Read Edit View history Page Discussion. Wiki Forums Members Chat. Issue description: I was using the gas burning generator to produce power, which received hydrogen from an electrolytic separator but the separator used up all the power the gas burning generator produced, so it would be effectively useless.

The amount of energy the electrolyte separator is equal to the energy made by the gas-burning generator, so you might as well just not even bother with either of those and just pump whatever energy you were planning to use to power the electrolyte separator right into your base.
