Incinerator

WorldObject

A way to finally share your trash with the world.

Notes

The Incinerator is a placed, grid-aligned industrial crafting table that burns garbage via the Incinerate Garbage recipe. It must be built inside an enclosed room with at least 24 m³ of free volume, and it consumes power only while operating. Note that it emits 7.2 air pollution PPM/hour whenever it runs, so factor its emissions into your town's pollution budget before relying on it for waste disposal.
