Basic Distiller

Allows distillation of low-grade gasoline but it is quite inefficient and produces a lot of waste.

Electricity	None
Maintenance	None
Footprint	6x5
Required Research	Basic Diesel
Boost by Unity	Available
Designation	Crude Oil Refining

The Basic Distiller refines Crude Oil into Diesel by consuming Coal while generating both Exhaust and Waste Water. The Basic Distiller can also create fresh Water from Seawater using Coal while generating Exhaust and Brine. Diesel production is rather inefficient and polluting in comparison to the later Distillation (Stage I) and associated machines. Players should take care to monitor the level of the Crude Oil reserve viewing the reserve status on their Pumpjacks to ensure they are not getting close to consuming all available Crude Oil on the island.
