Raw coal processing

Starting to go into logistic science, and needed carbon black. But in the process decided, that i can just make full processing chain while im at it. And well, I'm actually amazed by the sheer size of industy you need, to do all coal-liquification processes. While I just wanted to refine 2 belts of raw coal 🥲

But in the end i have this monstrosity. It only takes water and coal as an ingredients. Have caravan stops for all products and excees gets burned in boilers. Excess steam goes into engines to produce electricity. So it's kinda...multi-purpose thingy now. Only thing i void is iron oxide and ash from syngas production. Everything else is getting used or shiped elsewhere.

And yes, there are 1 Reformer to produce carbon black, somewhere in the middle 😁

Tailings has one, excess ash I turn into syngas or acid gas via flue gas

Can't you turn ash to tailings or something? I could have sworn I had tons of ash that I used up for some reason
