Can you purify polluted water into pure water?

[ewan501]

I currently am located in a highly polluted area, about the 250 level, and what I am using pumps in either the lake located near me or on the land, it's giving me polluted water.

I want to know if it is at all possible to purify this polluted water into pure water which I can drink, if not, what other methods can I use to get pure water in a polluted area.?

Have you got water filteration? Unsure really

go to a clean lake and start fishing for water in afk when you have tons of it go back to base and put it in the tanks.

I think you cant, poluted water is only used on the brewer for making acid
You may need to leave the area and gather elsewhere
I do remember my pumps were gathering both poluted and contamined water on a poluted area, it was 110 tho, im unsure if this affects the outcome since i havent tested

Unless they have ever fixed the bug when you are offline Polluted water fro some ppl turns to purified water instead of impure acid.

funny enough i have a full stack of polluted water n yet it filtered into purified water when im offline n i so confident that its a bug

Currently the short answer is yes because there is a bug where if you leave the process running while offline it will create "Impure Acid" AND LOTS of "Pure Water". It's good for players who aren't near enough to a water source as you can essentially just pump the "Pure Water" directly into your barrels. You still have to manually move the "Impure Acid" but there is a piping/plumbing overhaul being worked on that should come in a future update.
