Description
Creates about 1.3K/min plastic directly from coal (and electricity). I use this when plastic from wood/algae is no longer enough (which is about mid game). Its not balanced in its current form and you might not have the right levels of belts/inserters etc. but its what I adapt from when needing more plastic.
Its only output beside plastic is benzene (which you can burn for electricity or simply flare). The rest of the byproducts are flared.
As you can see from the screenshot it fits nicely in a Nilaus style city-block. I am currently playing with transport drones mod but it should be easy to adapt to your needs.
