Little help?

    I'm making a distiller and electrolysis experiment where it distills the water then puts it through electrolysis, but when I try it somehow breaks the iron into broken metal like it does with salt.
    But no salt is able to get through! At least, none that I can see. Does anyone know what's going on and how I can make this save work better?

    What are you trying to do with it? You clone saltwater and then heat it into steam. Then you put the steam near the iron and turn it into ice? =S, Please explain.

    Freezing WTRV into ice then melting gives water, not distilled water. Distilled water is the only type of water that can be electrolysed without breaking the iron.

    So you would probably need to use a cooling method that doesn't freeze the water.

    Iron is only supposed to rust with salt...

    Powder_Toy:

    Iron: Rusts with salt, can be used for the electrolysis of water

    Edit:
    @Kreationz
    Distill water then turn it into oxygen...

    descriptions are never always right, it rusts with watr, salt, sltw, O2, and LO2. so even oxygen will rust it.
    i'm not sure theres a clean way without using clone to keep the IRON regenerating.

    I see this now. Result of stupid mo...I mean result of poor cod...I mean the result of a small mistake that mods are in no way responsible for.

    There's a reason why iron isn't available in the menus.
