The pollution pump is a building added by the Biotech DLC that gradually clears pollution in a radius around itself when powered.

Acquisition

Pollution pumps can be constructed once the Electricity research project has been completed. Each requires Steel 75 Steel, Component 1 Component, 4,000 ticks (1.11 mins) of work, and a Construction skill of 3.

Summary

When powered, pollution pumps turn pollution on the ground into toxic wastepacks. It takes 200 W of power to function. It has a radius of 10.9 tiles.

  • Cleans 1 tile of pollution every 15,000 ticks (4.17 mins), or 4 tiles per game-day.
  • Every 6 tiles, it creates a wastepack item.

The wastepacks then have be managed, lest it dissolve back into pollution.
