Solid Fuel can be created from [[heavy oil]], [[light oil]] or [[petroleum gas]].  
[[Light oil]] has the best oil to solid fuel ratio (10:1). Cracking heavy oil to light oil first changes the ratio for heavy oil to 13:1.

== Which solid fuel recipe to use ==
* [[Light oil]] has the best oil to solid fuel ratio (10:1).
* [[Heavy oil]] has a much worse ratio (20:1). Cracking heavy oil to light oil first changes the ratio for heavy oil to 13:1.
* [[Petroleum gas]] also has a 20:1 ratio.

Solid fuel is a kind of fuel and is processed in a chemical plant. One unit of solid fuel contains 12MJ of energy, three times the energy value of coal.

Besides being useful as fuel in all burner devices, solid fuel is also used to produce rocket fuel, which is a component of rocket parts built in the rocket silo.

Recipes

Solid Fuel can be created from heavy oil, light oil or petroleum gas. Light oil has the best oil to solid fuel ratio (10:1). Cracking heavy oil to light oil first changes the ratio for heavy oil to 13:1.
