Fuels

Base fuel value (energy density) of different fuels:

  • Syngas – 1000 RF/mB
  • Fuel (BuildCraft and other mods) – 1500 RF/mB
  • Biofuel / Bioethanol (Forestry, MFR, other mods) – 800 RF/mB
  • Liquifacted Coal (Thermal Expansion) – 1000 RF/mB
  • Rocket Fuel (Ender IO) – 1120 RF/mB
  • Fire Water (Ender IO) – 1200 RF/mB
  • Hydrogen (Mekanism) – 43.24 RF/mB
  • Ethylene (Mekanism) – 6000 RF/mB
  • Biogas (IC2) – 128 RF/mB
  • Natural Gas (GasCraft, Mariculture) – 30 RF/mB
  • Hydrogen (GasCraft) – 30 RF/mB
  • Hydrogen (MineChem) – 4 RF/mB
  • Propane (MineChem) – 268 RF/mB
  • Butane (MineChem) – 272 RF/mB
  • Isoprene (MineChem) – 276 RF/mB
  • Toluene (MineChem) – 284 RF/mB
  • Ethanol (MineChem) – 136 RF/mB
  • Allyl alcohol (MineChem) – 140 RF/mB
  • Methyl Alcohol (MineChem) – 68 RF/mB
  • Methyl (MineChem) – 100 RF/mB
  • Methylene (MineChem) – 68 RF/mB
  • Methacrylate (MineChem) – 180 RF/mB
  • Diesel (PneumaticCraft) – 700 RF/mB
  • Kerosene (PneumaticCraft) – 1100 RF/mB
  • LPG (PneumaticCraft) – 1800 RF/mB
  • Light Oil (Magneticraft) – 2000 RF/mB
  • Heavy Oil (Magneticraft) – 1500 RF/mB
  • Natural Gas (Magneticraft) – 3000 RF/mB

Fuel consumption formula:

[Fuel Consumption (mB/t)] =  [Production (RF/t)] / [Fuel Value (RF/mB)] / [Efficiency Multiplier]

Actual production is determined by requested energy, the system will not burn fuel when it has nowhere to store the energy.

Efficiency multiplier is 110% by default, can be increased with Efficiency Upgrade Modules.

Additional fuels might work, their fuel values will show in the tooltip.
