== By-Products ==
==Creosote==
Creosote is a byproduct of the [[Coke Oven]]. It can be loaded into metal buckets or Seared Tanks through the GUI or right-clicking on the Coke Oven itself. Creosote can be used to craft torches or burned in Furnaces, Iron Furnaces, [[Boiler Firebox]]es or[[Semi-Fluid Generator]]s for early game Steam power. In [[LV]] it's also used as a lubricant. If you truly have an excess of creosote, Coke Ovens can be voided by breaking the bottom center block and then rebuilding the multi-block structure. Automated voiding is gated to LV.
Creosote Oil is the by-product of using the coke oven. It has multiple uses:


*Better torch recipe (1 Bucket Creosote + 1 Stick + 1 Wool = 5x Torches)

*Good furnace fuel (being able to smelt 32 items per bucket - bucket is not consumed)

*Decent fuel for your RC steam boilers (using buckets of creosote oil in the solid-fueled firebox seems to have a lower fuel efficiency than piping creosote oil into liquid-fueled firebox)
*Decent fuel for your RC Steam Boilers (using buckets of creosote oil in the solid-fueled firebox seems to have a lower fuel efficiency than piping creosote oil into liquid-fueled firebox)
*Fuel for combustion generator (the efficiency of it is kinda meh compared to other fuel source available in LV)

*Distill into lubricant (not a very bad source of it considering you will end up with A LOT of creosote oil)
