What power converter do I use to turn EU to MJ

[Airbornehurdle]

I have a this Biomass stored into a iron tank (I made this because my friend told me to make a backup power source.) and I want to turn this to EU to MJ cause I only use MJ in my world to run everything.What consumer and producer do I use to convert EU to MJ.

P.S. You may be thinking "What about just use Electric Engine and connect it to a redstone circuit and the redstone circuit connected to redstone energy cell." Well, that is a good way to convert EU to MJ but when Electric Engine is over heating and shut downs then everything that I use to connect to the redstone energy cell will be shut down so I don't use Electric Engine to convert EU to MJ.

If this is a continuous source of biomass, then use stills to convert it to biofuel. Then use a boiler to convert it to steam. Then use industrial steam engines to convert it to MJ.

If it is a limited supply, then still use stills to convert it to biofuel, but then use combustion engines to make MJ. Either way, there is no need to make it into EU at all.

However, If you ever do need to convert EU to MJ the tools depend on how much EU you are producing per tick..... For low amounts use a bat box and LV consumer. For medium, use MFE and MV consumer. For high, use MFSU, and HV consumer. Whichever you use, the next step is the Energy bridge, then a BC producer.

what kind of boiler do i use?

It depends on how fast you are producing the biofuel. I can't recall the math, but if space isn't an issue then a fairly safe way to start is with a 36LP boiler. Start by making the boiler, information on that can be found here:

LP means low pressure, so make the plates with iron, not steel.

Then mostly fill a pretty large tank with biofuel, as you will need a good reserve. Then start pumping the fuel into the boiler with liquiducts (Don't forget to get a stead water source set up before doing this though). It will burn through fuel very fast at first, but once it is fully heated it will slow way down in consumption and you can judge whether you can afford to set up another one a/o an HP version (HP's are no more efficient than LP, they just save resources and space a little, but take a lot lot longer to heat up, effectively costing more fuel over their lifetime).

You also need to build the steam engines while it is heating up, and once if gets over 100C in temperature you can connect 5 liquiducts to one side, join them together into a single pipe, and run that to the steam engines (which will also need a redstone signal, so leave room for that). Standard MJ stuff from there.

However, if you cannot keep it running full-time, a combustion engine would work a lot better, due to having almost as much fuel efficiency and being much less of a commitment.
Converting Biofuel based power to EU at all is extremely innefficient, due to the balance being heavily swayed towards engines.
