Coal is a resource found on Nauvis and Vulcanus. It can also be found inside huge rocks on Nauvis. It is used as fuel in burner devices. It is also a component in several weapons (such as grenades) and plastic bars.

Coal can be manufactured from native resources on Gleba and space platforms via coal synthesis.

Coal cannot be obtained on Fulgora or Aquilo and must be imported from other planets.

This recipe is needed for making explosives on Gleba and space platforms, where coal cannot be directly acquired.

Note that even with the highest quality productivity module 3s possible, converting coal into carbon and back gives a net decrease in carbon or coal (not to mention consuming sulfur and sulfuric acid).

History
