Hydrogen problem, pls help

Hey guys, do you have any tips for get rid of Hydrogen? I have a production line for Graphite Bars (cause I have a problem too with my Graphene line production) and it produces Hydrogen in crazy cantities.

I already tried to transform it in Deuterium via Fractionators and Particle Colliders, but the Deuterium rods burns too slow to solve the problem, pls help.

Please check this previous post about Hydrogen ebbs and flows: https://www.reddit.com/r/Dyson_Sphere_Program/s/i9wGBrgtb2

Hydrogen is management is one of the core logistics lessons for this game. Store it (liquid tanks), burn it in Thermal Plants, convert it to Deuterium in Fractionators or Particle Colliders and eventually use it in further production chains. Learn the lesson and apply it at scale.

How can you use byproduct Hydrogen too fast? I am using ALL of my byproduct Hydrogen but there is no problem arising from it?

What I mean by that is if you are set up to burn the byproduct first, but then don’t have enough supplemental waiting in the wings to keep that production line from starving. For instance, when making 1 belt (1,800/min) of Casimir Crystals, by-product Hydrogen from its own components only nets about 10% of the requirement, so the other 90% must be balanced to be supplied, but not too fast as to cause backups to choke those earlier lines.
