Oil recipes, byproducts and recycling
Crude oil comes from Oil Extractors on oil nodes, and from resource wells. Every refinery recipe that takes it leaves a second output: plastic and rubber leave heavy oil residue, fuel leaves polymer resin. A refinery stops as soon as its byproduct has nowhere to go, so plan both outputs from the start.
Heavy oil residue becomes fuel (Residual Fuel) or petroleum coke. Polymer resin becomes plastic or rubber with water (Residual Plastic, Residual Rubber). Together these get far more plastic and rubber out of the same oil, and the alternates Recycled Plastic, Recycled Rubber and Diluted Fuel go further still.
Oil is a fluid: a Mk.2 pipeline carries up to 600 m³ a minute, and pumps push it uphill.
Recipes that consume crude oil
Inputs and outputs are per building at 100% clock. Solid materials use items/min; fluids and gases use m³/min. Every output needs a route away from the machine.
