The Distillation (Stage I) is a machine which processes Crude Oil into Heavy Oil, Medium Oil, and Sour Water, which has applications in the production of Sulphur for Rubber and Fertilizer. When combined with the Distillation (Stage II) and Distillation (Stage III) machines, they allow for the creation of Naptha and Fuel Gas. All three units can be built direct together in a line with no tiles in between without loss of efficiency or they can be built independently and piped together if so desired. The primary disadvantage of the Distillation (Stage I) and its companion machines is a significant increase in the difficulty of designing the refinery layout, piping, and subsequent byproduct management.
Basic Distiller efficiency comparison
When compared to the Basic Distiller, the addition of a Distillation (Stage II) machine allows production of Diesel 50% more efficiently (1.5 Crude Oil/Diesel vs 1.0 Crude Oil/Diesel). The Coal requirement to process Crude Oil in the Distillation (Stage I) is also initially decreased by about 6.25% (0.33 Coal/Crude Oil vs 0.31 Coal/Crude Oil). However, once the Boiler (Gas) is unlocked via the Gas Combustion research, the Coal requirement can be removed entirely if refinery byproducts are used to produce the input Steam (High) instead.
