I am trying to make one of the massive reactors provided in reactorcraft. It's a huge project and I am currently up to the part where you use heavy water in an electrolyzer to create deuterium.

I have successfully set up the electrolyzer to work and I am getting the deteurium I want, however Oxygen gas is also produced. As soon as the internal storage of the electrolyzer is full of oxygen is stops creating deuterium... It is possible to pump the oxygen gas out but so far I cannot find a way of essentially 'dumping' the gas somehow. Currently I have a massive tank set up to store the oxygen however once that fills I am going to run in to the same issue. Is there some way of just completely dumping the oxygen as it has very little use in the game at the moment?

Not sure what you're supposed to do with it, but TE3 has a block that will delete anything piped into it, and I'm assuming you can pump the oxygen into it.

I recommend pumping all your excess oxygen into a fluid compression chamber. Those things can hold 250k buckets each, and you can just swap it out for a fresh one when it gets full.

It can store four times that. Capacity is a function of torque.

Hmm, fair enough. The last time I was toying with them was on 24b or so, and if I recall correctly, they stopped working at all after I gave them a certain amount of torque. All seems well in 25z.

If the oxygen works like any other Forge fluid, you could route it through to a liquid void pipe from BuildCraft, if you just don't feel like using it.

Not that I'm aware of, but I haven't touched all of either mod, yet, so there might be something of which I'm unaware.

Oxygen has uses, by the way.

I'm a little annoyed that the only use you seem to have put in is its use in the pulse jet furnace. Please list more if there are any as I have been looking for quite some time. I can think of many interesting commercial uses for pure oxygen, to me it has some potential here.

Could you tell me if there are any more? I would like you to list all the ones you've put in. If there isn't any others that's fine. For uses there's things like welding and gas cutting, and welding could be a neat implementation for repair and assembly.

Welding is not very useful when there is no such mechanics to use it.

Perhaps a device that repairs metal tools and armor? I know that's kind of a niche use, and there already is that grind stone block (which I can't remember the name of right now, it's been a while since I've used it) but it still might be a good use. Also, gas cutting was mentioned, and that may be something that could be integrated into manufacturing somehow (maybe a more steel-efficient way of making base panels from HSLA steel blocks, for example).
